Most of the land is hillside with numerous almond trees so you have amazing views to appreciate. Around the house there is plenty of space for parking, possibly a pool and gardening.
Access to the property is via a tarmac road and there is an "in and out, horse shoe" style driveway with parking for numerous cars. The first building you come to is the warehouse with up and over door. Depending on your requirements this would need renovation (see the photos). We can recommend local, reputable builders etc.
Next the driveway leads up to the main house. The main covered front entrance door to Cortijo del Buho (House of the Owl) is at the centre of the front of the house and leads in to a welcoming reception room. This forms the centre of the house. From here you have access to the following areas:-
To the left an archway takes you into the main, largest living room with super efficient pellet burning fire and air con.

From here separate doors lead to double bedroom no 1 with ensuite bathroom, double bedroom no 2 with ensuite shower room, double bedroom no 3 with ensuite bathroom plus an office room and another large room which could be made into a living / dining room / kitchen. With a little work this could be turned into a 1 bed, 1 bath self contained apartment with it´s own external entrance door.
