A very beautiful, quality built country villa in a peaceful country location, with other houses nearby but private. 10 minutes from Puente Don Manuel and Viñuela villages. 20 minutes to the coast.

Situated in the low hills close to Viñuela, this lovely villa is accessed either by a mainly concrete country lane and a short track, from Río Bermuza, or via a well used dirt track via Viñuela/Puente Don Manuel. The property is situated in an elevated position with beautiful views across the mountains.

The gated entrance leads to a driveway, running past the front of the house and around to the back, where the outbuilding/toolshed/workshop is located (15m2). The beautiful gardens are packed with mature trees, palms and flowering climbers and shrubs, making a mini paradise of natural shade, scented flowers and gently waving palm fronds. The balustraded boundary to the West shows off impressive views over the countryside and mountains, not a view one can ever tire of – and in the middle of the garden is a lovely outdoor eating area, shaded by so much foliage.

From the shade of a front covered terrace, the front door of the house (117m2) leads into a hallway. To the right is the living room (6 x 5.2m)with double patio doors, a second door and plenty of windows. There is a corner wood burner for Winter nights, and a wide arch to the left leads into the fully fitted kitchen (2 x 3m).

From the hall, to the left is an inner corridor, with a useful store cupboard and access to the separate WC, to the right. To the left is a door into bedroom 3, which at present is joined up with bedroom 2, next door, as the current owners enjoy this large space for their hobbies. These rooms are 4 x 4m and 4 x 3.5m, both with double glass sliding doors out to the garden, and it would be a very simple job to reinstate the partition wall between these two rooms. At the end of the corridor is the family bathroom, (2.4 x 2.8m) which has both a shower unit and a bath, and bedroom 3 (with the twin beds, in the photos) (4 x 3.5m).

All rooms have hot/cold air conditioning units.

To the rear of the property is a large, flat area with the outbuilding, plus a separate portable shed for further storage. Beyond, is a large, flat area that would be a good place to put a beautiful above ground pool, such as a ‘swim spa’, or for further development of the gardens. The rest of the land runs down the hill, part of which could be used to grow fruit trees.

This property is within the tropical mango-growing area around Velez-Málaga, one of the largest mango and avocado growing areas in Europe, given its wonderful, mild climate.
