Description
Andalusian cortijo with land, very competitively priced at €64,000.
Urban and fully legal. Extensive video available.
Just 1 hour to Malaga’s International Airport and the beaches of the Costa del Sol. Inland living at its best: the stunning Lake at Iznájar, the largest lake in Andalucía, is a mere 15-minute drive away, with beaches, sailing and fishing.
Nestled in the countryside, just a few minutes’ walk from local tapas bars, we offer a spacious farmhouse, partially renovated many years ago, albeit modestly, but habitable. Oozing potential for renovation to a family home, this has a convenient location, enjoying the sounds of nature and the ripples of water from the stream opposite.
If you’re looking for a home to make your own, this urban hamlet may tick many boxes. Super potential for a guest annex. The interior has been well maintained, although it has not been lived in during the past 15 years.
The family have kept it internally clean, but renovation is required to bring it into the 21st century. The only bathroom is in the patio, which could easily be changed, as there is scope to install a new bathroom on the lower or upper floor. There are no beams or wood in any part of the property—only concrete ceilings on the first floor and a watertight roof. To the rear of the property there is access to a 4th bedroom, which could be connected to the existing bedrooms on the first floor by installing a door and sealing off the current rear entrance. There is also a fireplace in the kitchen/dining room, which has been closed off, but the chimney is still behind the wall and could be functional once more.
The land is to the left of the property elevation (ideal for creating more terraces), and to the rest of the property there is a retaining wall, so winter climate should not be a problem. There is no major damp problem in this house, just the normal musty odour of a property that has been unventilated and closed up. Obviously, it needs modernization, but it is habitable so you can live and work on site.
If you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a weekend getaway in this convenient, quiet spot, set back off a country road, this is definitely worth viewing.
This would be a relatively easy project for any builder. The exterior needs more work, e.g. repairing and re-plastering the facade completely, and integrating the lower-level stable area to make a guest suite. The cortijo is connected to mains water and electricity, obviously needing upgrades.
Open countryside views.
