2 little detached country houses, next one facing the other, on the edge of a quiet country lane in the beautiful mountains and hills between Comares and Riogordo, needing only light renovation, ideal for anyone wishing to have two separate living units in the countryside.

A most unusual property, located in glorious countryside and walking distance from a local country bar and restaurant.

Location
Situated just 10 minutes from the country town of Riogordo, and 15 minutes from Benamargosa, and within 45 minutes of Malaga and the coast, this property has no dirt track to reach it, with a concrete country land leading to a little cluster of country properties, of which this is one.

The houses
House 1 consists of a lovely front walled terrace with a pretty, rustic style facade with blue and white tile borders. The front door leads into a living room with a fireplace to the left. Immediately beyond, an opening leads into the kitchen (needs refitting) with a stunning, large, original fireplace to one side. A door from here leads out to a lovely walled courtyard patio, ideal for private dining. This little patio could be made extremely beautiful, and if any owner were using it to live in, and letting House 2, this area is the perfect private outdoor space,away from the holiday let.

From the living room, to the right, a partition wall (could easily be taken down to double the size of the living room) leads into a bedroom. From here a passage leads to a bathroom to the right, and then to bedroom 2. And from bedroom 2, four steps lead down to bedroom 3.

The front door to House 2 leads directly into a kitchen/dining room, with a fireplace. To the far end, a door leads into a corridor, with a useful store cupboard to the left, and bedroom 1 straight ahead. The corridor leads to the right to bedroom 2 and the bathroom. Both bedrooms have doors to the outside, one to the swimming pool area, and the other to the front of the house.

(Measurements and floorplan to be published shortly).

The plot
Immediately next to House 2 is the pool terrace, with an in ground pool of around 26m2.

Beyond, the land stretches along the hillside, sloping down, with wide flat areas and covered in large, mature olive trees, creating beautiful natural shade. The views are stunning, of the mountains and hills beyond, and there are plenty of areas that could be used for gardens, vegetable plots, and fruit tree orchards.

This delightful property is bursting with potential. With a little attention and work, the rustic features that these houses must have once had could easily be restored, such as beams on sloping ceilings, and nicely furnished, they would make perfect holiday rentals. There is the added advantage of the nearby bar/restaurant – every holiday maker loves to stroll down to a local bar!
