A most beautiful, immaculate country house located only 10 minutes from Velez-Malaga and 10 minutes from the pretty village of Canillas de Aceituno, sold mainly furnished

Known as Casa ‘Ar-Dachaidh’, this lovely house is situated conveniently close to the historic town of Velez-Malaga and the coast, in the hills bordering the lush, tropical fruit-growing Velez river valley. It has everything to offer as a permanent home, second home or holiday let villa. The house is 120m2 plus garage.

A short drive off the country road on the way up to Canillas de Aceituno leads to the large parking area for several cars with easy turning space. From here is direct access to the garage (around 6 x 4m internal space with fitted sink, washing machine and freezer). Entrance to the house is through the pretty pergola terrace area, a lovely outdoor living space which in Summer is covered in the bright purple hue of the mature wisteria plant. The front door leads into the living room, a generous 4.3 x 6m plus a circular area with rounded ceiling above. The room is bright and light with plenty of windows, a dining area and a living area, and a quality woodburning stove, plus hot/cold air conditioning unit. From here is access to the kitchen (approx 3 x 3m) which is fully fitted and has a brick decorated ‘hatch’ to the dining area. Also from the living room is a brick decorated arch leading to the bedrooms and bathrooms. To the right is a hall area with door leading out to the entrance to the property and garage, with a door to the right of the hall into the master bedroom. This lovely room has an ensuite bathroom (with jacuzzi bath and overhead shower) immediately to the left, with the rest of the room beyond. It is around 6 x 3m in total, with built-in wardrobe and ceiling fan.

The other bedrooms are around 3 x 4m with built-in wardrobes and the family shower room is 2.2 x 1.5m.

Outside, the gardens are simple but beautiful, and beautifully kept, with plenty of well established flowering plants and bushes. There are many trees, including exotic trees, and the bank to one side is terraced and planted with a variety of fruit trees, such as apple, pear, nectarine, peach, fig, hazlenut, almond, lemon, cherry, pomegranate and walnut. There are four separate automatic irrigation systems to ensure the entire garden is irrigated.

The pool is 8 x 4m with walk-in steps and there is an automatic pool vacuum for pool cleaning included in the sale. To one side, a bank leads up to a flat area, which would be perfect for growing vegetables, and there is a 3,000L extra water storage tank here too.

The views are beautiful, all around, of the mountains and hills, and the valley below. This is a true gem of a house in a perfect location!
