SOLD: Finca Isabelicos has been constructed in traditional Andalusian 'finca' style with terracotta floors throughout and lots of rustic details. All the main living areas are spacious, bright and airy and the windows in every room look out onto beautiful views of the surrounding countryside.

The property sits on a large flat plot surrounded by well maintained Mediterranean landscaped gardens and boasts incredible views in all directions. If you are looking for sun or shade there are numerous areas to soak up the absolute peace and tranquility of this enviable location. From the western aspect of the gardens there are stunning views of Mount Maroma and the white village of Canillas de Aceituno from where you can hear the distant chimes of the church bells!

The coast is just a very scenic 20-minute drive away with Torre del Mar as the nearest coastal town with its beautiful promenade and beaches. In 50 minutes you can be in the heart of Málaga and for skiing in the Sierra Nevada it will take you 2 hours by car.

DESCRIPTION OUTSIDE

The property is accessed from the dirt road onto a large gravelled driveway with more than ample parking, surrounded by mature borders with a handy storage shed to the left.

Beyond the main entrance on the right hand side there is a shady terrace (12 x 2.50 m) with breathtaking views of Mount Maroma, the highest mountain of the Axarquía and the surrounding countryside. The perfect place to escape the afternoon sun with a cold glass of vino! Continuing to the rear of the property there is a split level gravelled area with mature flower beds and borders. From here the views over the glorious rolling countryside towards the lake and mountains are simply spectacular.

The large south facing covered porch (9 x 2 m) and terraced area with swimming pool (8 x 4 m) have equally impressive views and are bordered by Mediterranean plants. From this terrace one can gain access through French doors into the lounge and to both double bedrooms.

Leading back to the driveway there is a wooden pergola currently used as a car port.
