Description
This charming property has very good access just outside the beautiful village of Bedar. At the entrance, there is a gravelled driveway with mature eucalyptus trees, which accommodates parking for many vehicles.
Double antique gates open into the front patio and garden. This lovely space with mature planting guides you to the main door. The traditional heavy wooden door opens into a fabulous, spacious entrance hall with original Spanish tiling on the floor.
This fine-looking property is over 100 years old, and the wonderful original features are noticeable from the outset, including beamed ceilings and antique floor tiles throughout.
A door to the right leads into a spacious, well-designed kitchen with a large central island, plenty of workspace, and cupboards.
The fabulous hallway has a couple of steps providing access to the extremely impressive and particularly spacious living/dining room. This delightful room includes high ceilings with exposed beams and four sets of double doors to the private courtyard garden and a feature fireplace.
This beautifully designed room has been exquisitely furnished and decorated. The tall double doors surrounding the room create a feeling of space and light, with views over the courtyard garden and private pool.
To the left of the entrance hall is an archway providing access to the lovely “snug”, again with many original features and a cozy space during the cooler winter months. This room also doubles as a study/office area.
A door from this room leads into the first of the guest bedrooms, which includes views into the front garden and a full en-suite bathroom. There is also a door with access to the utility room, which in turn has a door to the garden.
A flight of stairs with original wooden balustrade guides you up to the first floor, where a splendid hallway provides access to further bedrooms. The sizable master bedroom includes a separate, spacious dressing area with fitted wardrobe and en-suite bathroom.
The views from this part of the house are spectacular, over the whitewashed village of Bedar and towards the coast.
Further along the hallway, you will find two additional guest bedrooms. On this floor there is also a family bathroom and a store cupboard.
Outside this wonderful cortijo to the rear, you discover the superb walled, private courtyard garden, a stunning area with mature planting and a bespoke private pool.
There is plenty of room here for relaxing, dining, and especially entertaining, with a covered dining area and a built-in barbecue area.
Steps lead down from the front garden to separate grounds and gardens, where you will find the self-contained annex.
The annex has been tastefully finished and decorated, ideal for visiting guests; it is currently used as an art studio.
A terrace to the front boasts wonderful views to the village, which are beautiful at night too.
There are vegetable gardens beneath, with traditional-style raised beds. Alongside the vegetable gardens, you will find a sizable chicken run.
The area also includes a large greenhouse, perfect for a keen gardener.
There is plenty of parking here with separate access from the house.
The property also comes with agricultural land with its own water rights.
This is a fabulous cortijo, full of character and style, a unique property close to the village in a great location with excellent views.
