An unmissable investment home, with rental potential.
A quaint 2/3 bed / 2 bath country cottage (140m²), with small front garden and a walled rear patio, offering tranquility and privacy.
The present owners have created a comfortable, cozy and functional home, where daily basics are within a 5 minute walk and local schools, parks, swimming complex, supermarkets, medical center and many other facilities are all within a 5 minute drive.
An ideal location if you’re a pet lover, the outdoor type or nature lover, as there are many wonderful walking trails, surrounded by stunning countryside. This popular and pretty hamlet has all the amenities you need for daily basis. The main village of Algaidas provides all your other shopping requirements on a larger scale, and within 15-20 minutes’ drive you can explore the city of Antequera (inland Málaga) or, to the east, the historic heritage town of Archidona, both offering an excellent choice of cuisine, history, architecture and good educational facilities for children if you’re thinking of relocating, in both private and public schools.
Just under an hour’s drive and you’re in Málaga city, the airport, metro, unrivalled culture, climate, gastronomy and many blue flag beaches for family to enjoy.
Algaidas has undergone major upgrades during 2025/26, especially the main high street, pretty paved sidewalks, spacious open areas filled with fauna and green areas, fully equipped parks, sports facilities/arena for local enthusiasts, and communal areas bursting with color from perfectly pruned flower beds. It’s a village with a high percentage of young families and provides the amenities necessary for all ages. The Ferias and Fiestas are more prominent from Easter onwards, as the summers are long and hot, and normally winters are mild and short.
The aroma of jasmine and dama de noche fills the summer night air, and bougainvillea thrives in this excellent climate. There are many tapas bars and restaurants, pretty lit-up cocktail bars open till late, ready for sampling delicious local wines and olives, and if you’re lucky, summer-filled flamenco nights.
This popular hamlet is surrounded by lush countryside, undulating hills, expansive landscapes and endless olive groves. If your budget is limited and you’re looking for a holiday bolt-hole, this could be perfect, with no major work needed—just your own personal things to make it your home away from home.
A quirky, well-presented home over 2 floors, with an unusual layout: bedrooms are separated by living areas. One of the living areas has a built staircase to the spacious master bedroom (large double bed) with an adjoining dressing room area, open plan overlooking the rear patio, and incorporating an ensuite tiled shower room. The 2nd double bedroom has access via the “once upon a time” original kitchen, with a quirky wooden staircase leading to a bright room (with 2 single beds) and its ensuite shower room.
All windows are double glazed (fitted with fly screens), installed approximately 5 years ago. The floors are new in a light matt tile in keeping with the traditional rustic theme. Only the kitchen floor has the original barro tile.
The living room has beautifully preserved beams and is nicely furnished, with a corner log-burner for cozy winter nights. The new dual air conditioning unit provides an alternative way of heating, with hot/cold function for year-round comfort.
There is a window overlooking the front garden area, landscaped with a mature orange tree in a corner, providing foliage and overflowing with oranges. This pretty but modest garden area has a white balustrade dividing the neighbouring garden area. Along the front border are several planted flowering pink oleander bushes.
The white uneven walls are ready to be splashed with colourful artwork, and the furniture is a mixture of modern and traditional pieces. The kitchen diner is just beyond the lounge and is an ample size. From there is a built staircase leading to the huge upper open plan bedroom/well-furnished dressing area, plus the ensuite shower room. There are windows to both the front and rear elevations showing lovely open countryside views. The walled patio area to the rear has access from the kitchen via a glazed door.
The barriada of Atalaya consists of approximately 100 residential homes, most of which are within walking distance to a local supermarket, a tapas bar, an indoor sports centre where you can work out during low season, and a children’s playground with rides for toddlers. Around the corner there is a large plaza/arena where events and Ferias are held throughout the year. Summer brings many events and festivals, including BBQs under the canopy to escape the heat.
If you’re looking to buy a holiday home under €100,000, to escape daily city life or to make extra income, this could be an excellent first step onto the property ladder. Deeds are in order; urban classified property; mortgage possible.
Viewing is highly recommended.
