Originally, this magnificent property consisted of 2 adjoining homes that have been lovingly & expertly restored to create 1 generous, cohesive family residence. Upon entering the main reception hall, complete with a charming log burner, next is the fully fitted farmhouse kitchen that exudes warmth & functionality. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room with additional fitted units & appliances, along with a spacious family bathroom boasting a full bathtub and separate walk-in shower. A door from the utility room leads conveniently out to a spacious, covered terrace; perfect for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the views.

To the left of the kitchen, a grand open-plan dining area provides an inviting space for entertaining family & friends with direct access out to the side terrace. An archway leads from the dining area into the formal lounge of the original house with exposed ceiling beams, a feature log-burning fireplace and a modern ceiling fan. From here, another archway returns to the entrance hall, providing a practical and seamless flow through the home.

To the rear of the dining room, a thick stone archway leads into the property’s boot room; a functional space used for storage and as a cloakroom. This area also contains a second staircase, providing access to the first floor of the second section of the house. Continuing through the boot room, there is a second lounge, again with a log-burning fireplace, external access to the front of the property and traditional ceiling beams. Beyond this room, a small hallway leads to 2 ground floor bedrooms and a family shower room. One of the bedrooms is particularly charming, boasting a pitched beamed ceiling, log-burning stove, air conditioning & French doors opening to a delightful walled courtyard with direct access to the house frontage.

The first floor of the main house offers a landing with an office area, 3 spacious double bedrooms and a family shower room. The standout feature is the master bedroom; a stunning split-level room with extensive fitted wardrobes, air conditioning & a private roof terrace offering breathtaking, uninterrupted views of the surrounding mountains. This is a truly special space where one can relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the area.

As previously mentioned, the boot room provides access to the first floor of the second house which is home to 2 further double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes and an additional family shower room.

Set within a generous plot, the property commands stunning panoramic mountain views that form a tranquil and inspiring backdrop. The beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces include a 10 x 5m pool, complemented by a fully equipped outdoor kitchen & BBQ area.

The plot also features a substantial detached barn/storeroom, spacious garage/workshop and a historic outbuilding that once served as the village bakery, offering potential for further development, creative use, or even additional accommodation. Practical additions include a double car port, a chicken run, a charming walled courtyard and the roof terrace accessed from the master bedroom, providing yet another vantage point to soak in the spectacular surroundings.

The land itself is both beautiful and productive, with over 50 almond trees and 60 olive trees, ideal for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle or wishing to enjoy the fruits of their land.

Accessibility is a key advantage of this property; a well-maintained tarmac road leads directly to the main gates, eliminating the need to navigate dirt tracks. Despite its peaceful & private location, the cortijo is only a short 5-7 minute drive from the vibrant towns of Velez Rubio and Velez Blanco, where you will find an array of amenities including supermarkets, shops, restaurants, bars, medical services, banks and weekly markets.
