Outstanding Views: This 'cortijo' style detached property is typical of those in Southern Spain. The private and secluded house has its own courtyard with water feature - a cool and peaceful place. On a clear night, looking up from the courtyard, one cannot help but be awestruck by the clarity and brightness of the stars above.
At almost 500 metres above sea level, the large terraces on two sides of the property offer outstanding views that change with the light and weather. The covered terrace provides welcome shade. The pool terrace is covered by a pergola providing dappled shade. One can top up their tans by the pool where one can also find the built-in barbecue.
This outstanding country-based location makes the property unsuitable for family members who are elderly or infirm or young children that require supervision. The terraces are surrounded by hillside, without fences. The access road is suitable for 1.4 sized engine (group B) rental cars.
Restaurants And More: To visit the local restaurants and ventas, one needs to go by car, as the property is a few kilometres from the nearest town of Guaro.

If one drives 15 minutes north from the house towards the Sierra de las Nieves natural park, you discover villages such as Tolox, with the Cerro de Hijas, a charming rustic restaurant some 650 meters above sea level. From the terrace you can see as far as the Sierra Nevada mountain range, the Mediterranean and Africa beyond. Or Yunquera, with a choice of lovely traditional bars and restaurants.
