This attractive stone cottage has been completely renovated by the current owners yet retains its original charm, character and traditional features.

The main house has a really warm feeling as soon as you enter into the reception room/kitchen (formal living room upstairs). This inviting part of the property with beautifully fitted kitchen and soft seating really feels like the heart of the house.

Just off this space is a more formal dining area as well as a staircase rising to the first floor and a lobby area with family bathroom.

Upstairs, there is a large living room with beamed cieling, feature wood burning stove and two picture windows are at just the right height when you sit and relax to take in the stunning views outside.

On the half landing is a twin bedroom and upstairs alongside the living room is another double bedroom.

A few steps from the main house, accross the courtyard, is the entrance to the separate cottage. This offers a bedroom, sitting room and shower room, ideal for guests who want some independence or the possibility of B&B.

Of course, if you wish to integrate the guest accommodation back into the main part of the house, this is easy to do.

Attached to the guest accommodation is a very good size store room or perfect workshop/hobby room.

Outside, there are a number of seating areas, places to enjoy the views and to relax. The gardens are mature with olive trees, almonds, algorrobo and plenty of plants and flowers.

This property may appear typically Andalucian from the outside, but a real treat awaits you inside - none of the character has been lost however, all the mod-cons and comforts expected for modern day living have been installed: Hard wood double glazed windows throughtout, modern, fully fitted kitchen, the latest septic tank, quality showers and a bath, plus solar panels power the under-floor heating as well as hot water. This is backed up by an immersion heater for the water. The zoned heating circuits allows complete control.

Mains water is supplied with three separate water deposits for storage. One of these (6,000ltrs) is a rain water collection point used for watering the gardens.

In addition, there is a well on the land and two further water deposits, one of 16,000lts and another of 3,000ltrs.

Mains electric is supplied and a telephone and Internet provided by Iberbanda which includes broadband.

The location of the property is superb for complete peace, privacy, relaxation and uninterupted views. However, to reach this 'little piece of heaven,' a 3 minute track must first be driven. You will feel it is worth it and definitely not be disappointed once there.

In summary, if you are seeking a small slice of real Andalucia but want your home comforts, you do not need to look any further.

This house really does need to be seen to be fully appreciated.
