A beautifully renovated traditional farmhouse of over 200m², on a fully fenced plot, with mature low-maintenance garden containing lots of original features, located in the hamlet of Los Llanos de Taberno.

Upon entering you are met with ample parking as well as a shaded carport. A storeroom/workshop here could easily be converted into additional accommodation if required.
The front terrace has been screened to facilitate al fresco dining, and has immediate additional access to the kitchen.
Adjacent to this terrace, is a beautiful courtyard area with a door into the second bedroom. Above the second bedroom, there is a roof terrace ideal for private sunbathing and this is accessed from steps at the side of the house. Although there isnt one at present, there is plenty of space for a Jacuzzi or above-ground pool within the plot.

Once inside, the cortijo continues to impress. The modern design and traditional features blend seamlessly; there is distressed painted kitchen [amp;] furniture, exposed ceiling beams, modern lighting [amp;] ceramic tiling, stone cladding, stable doors etc.

On entering the cortijo, there is a long kitchen and dining room with corner log burning fire, stable door out to the enclosed terrace area. As the property is single storey, it benefits from beautifully restored pitched ceilings with exposed beams throughout.
The kitchen has been decorated in a distressed style, and the appliances are integrated behind cupboard doors. A door to the left then leads into the huge lounge. This room boasts a feature log burning fireplace at the far end, whilst a set of formal double doors lead out to the front courtyard. An old animal trough has been re-used to create the TV recess.

In the lounge, a door on the right then leads into a spacious bath [amp;] shower room with natural stone cladding, corner log burner and a huge walk-in shower. A second door on the right in the lounge leads into the very generous master bedroom, again with a feature fireplace.
Another doorway at the end of the lounge leads into the 3rd bedroom with corner log burner. Another door on the left in this room leads into the second bedroom which has its own external stable door out to the front courtyard, as well as a feature fireplace and a double stone sink for guests (which requires plumbing).
There is another room off the third bedroom which could be used as a 4th bedroom, if required, but which is currently being utilised as a walk through wardrobe and dressing room. An archway on the other side of the room then leads back into the master bedroom.

The property can be sold furnished, with the exception of personal items, subject to separate negotiation.
