Remote Traditional Cortijo with Land

This exceptional cortijo, built 23 years ago by a respected local builder for his own use, stands out for the quality of its construction and materials. Traditional in appearance yet built using modern methods, the property is fully insulated and finished to a remarkably high standard throughout.

Set at an altitude of approximately 1,650 metres and surrounded by 4.8 hectares of land, it offers privacy, open skies and far-reaching views across the mountains towards the distant sea. Access is via a well-used 5.6 km track, and a 4x4 vehicle is required. There is also the option to acquire a further 15 hectares of adjacent land.

The cortijo offers three bedrooms and a beautifully crafted interior centred around a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living space.

• A huge chestnut ceiling beam supported by split chestnut tree trunks

• Exposed chestnut beams throughout
