Finca/Country House for sale in Alora, Málaga

Sympathetically renovated over the years, this delightful Andalusian cottage is the perfect full-time or holiday home. Retaining all its original charm, but with many modern touches and a beautiful pool terrace, it is in a ready-to-move-in condition.

The approach is via an easily accessible country track and a short section of secondary riverbed, about a 10-minute drive from the main road. There is ample parking at the front of the property. A covered terrace leads to the main door and into the dining hall with an electric 'woodburner' style stove and beamed ceiling. From here you enter the well-fitted kitchen with all electrical appliances. From there is an excellent, high-ceiling living room with plenty of light and doors out to the covered terrace and a large double bedroom, with plenty of light and an adjoining en-suite bathroom, and again, doors to the terrace.

On the other side of the dining hall there is a second double bedroom which shares a shower room with the third room with a full-length window, ideal as an extra bedroom, studio or office. The house has the added benefit of an independent bedroom with an en-suite shower which has a separate entrance from the side terrace, making it ideal for guests, or even letting.

All around the house and on different levels there are covered and open terraces, providing perfect areas for relaxation. The bottom terrace is home to a gorgeous pool with a balustraded surround and views of the mountains.

Although a very rural property, you are not isolated and have neighbours within walking distance. The property has mains electricity and well water. The land is fairly steep, but with flat areas around the house and there is a very useful wooden cabin for storage.
