Full Description


A simply beautiful, original, rustic style country house, located in a quiet mountain hamlet near both Alcaucín and Periana, with an excellent rental history.

Located in the mountains close to Periana, Casa Rosina is an original cortijo that has been lovingly renovated, preserving all its original character. Consisting of two cottages originally, the house has two living units that could be used independently or together.

The first house is accessed via the beautiful front terrace, which has views over Lake Viñuela, and the sea in the distance on a clear day and is the ideal place for outdoor dining and relaxing. The door from the terrace leads into a large studio room (7 x 4m) which could be a combination of a double bedroom, living room and kitchenette, plus a bathroom (9m2). There are steps leading up to double wooden doors, which open onto the main house from here, which can be open, or locked, depending on usage of the house.

The main house is accessed via a front door to one side of the smaller house. This leads into a beautiful living/dining room, full of original charm with white-washed beams and a lovely woodburner fireplace which warms the whole of the downstairs, and one room upstairs via the woodburner pipe. Ahead, a door to the rear right leads into a bedroom, (3.5 x 3.5m approx.) with beams and a pretty alcove under the stairs, and double doors to the far right of the living room lead into a second bedroom (3 x 3m), also with beams and a window to the front.

A door to the rear left of the living room leads into a lovely kitchen (3 x 3m), with black-painted beams, still with some of their original beams, and beautiful, rustic but practical kitchen units. A door to one side leads into a useful laundry/utility room (2 x 2m) and from here, the back door leads out into the walled garden, a peaceful, serene space with an in-ground pool and space for outdoor sunbathing and living.

Stairs lead up from the kitchen to the upper floor, onto a landing area used as a second living room. This lovely room (4 x 4m including the stairs) has a wood-clad sloping roof and a window over the garden below and the countryside beyond. This room is currently used as a TV room and library.

From here is a door to the upstairs bathroom (a generous 4 x 4m) with a bath and overhead shower. As is often found in these beautifully restored old houses, it is a bathroom large enough to dance in!

Also accessed from the upstairs living area is a huge bedroom which could easily, quickly and economically be made into two large double bedrooms by simply adding a partition wall with two doors. This space covers 10 x 3m and has a sloping ceiling the wooden beams and cane infill detail.

This very special property is perfect for anyone looking for a quiet, country and mountain community, in an original, rustic style building that has already been renovated, and with the potential to carry on with the successful and lucrative rental business. The property is, of course, registered with Toursim.

The property is connected to mains water, electricity and drainage and internet is present.
