Key features
Situation and outside space
The property is accessed via a part unmade and part concrete road. Driving through mature olive groves the house suddenly appears hidden amongst the gardens. The villa is very private and the setting is tranquil. The house is located just 2km from the village of Colmenar, which in turn is just 30 minutes’ drive from Malaga city.
There are 2 parking areas, from both areas meandering pathways lead through the mature gardens to 2 entrances into the house.
The property offers several terraces where you can sit and enjoy the truly wonderful surroundings all year long, whether you want sunshine or shade there is a space for both.
To the front of the property is a wooden pergola (2.1m x 1.5m) with space for table and chairs and a terraced area that leads to steps and the main access to the house.
Another pathway leads to a stepped access where wisteria entwined arches lead up to the kitchen covered terrace (3.7m x 2.8m). Here there is direct access in to the kitchen and double patio doors from the lounge. This is a lovely area to enjoy a coffee while taking in the garden views.
The gardens need to be experienced to appreciate their beauty. There are 300 year old olive trees mixed with flowering plants and shrubs. Due to careful planting the gardens have colour all year round. If the thought of producing your own honey appeals then this is the perfect setting for bee hives.
