Property Description
Carefully and traditionally restored, with chestnut beamed ceilings, terracotta floors and hand-glazed local tiles, this property is full of character, simply but comfortably decorated with rustic furniture, kilim rugs and paintings by local artists.
The antique front door opens to a cosy sitting room with a wood burning stove and beamed ceiling. There is a separate, arched dining area leading through to the well equipped kitchen and, beyond, the small patio with a tiny splash pool and a Moroccan tiled table for outdoor eating.
The bedrooms are on the upper floor and both have en-suite bathrooms; the double also has a little terrace from which you can enjoy the glorious landscape which is all around.
Steep stairs take you up to the roof terrace which is totally private for sunbathing and which has panoramic views of the church and castle.
Situated in a traffic free street on the edge of Gaucín, the only rush-hour "noise" you will hear is from the neighbours passing by on their mules or donkeys, off to spend the day on their ‘fincas'. Yet the house is only a few minutes walk away from shops, tapas bars, restaurants (ranging from wholesome peasant cooking to sophisticated ‘haute-cuisine'), tennis courts and an excellent municipal swimming pool.
One of two stylish village houses converted from a 17th century olive mill, the uninterrupted views from the house's private terraces, over fig, lemon and orange trees to the Rock of Gibraltar, the Straits and the Rif mountains of Morocco, makes this place unforgettable.
As one client said, "it was simply perfect for our needs"
It's just a couple of minutes walk from here to the restaurants, tapas bars and shops of the village.
Gaucín is one of Spain's most beautiful pueblos blancos, spectacularly situated on a mountain ridge, 629 meters above sea level. It's surrounded by beautiful countryside so there's plenty of wonderful walking and wildlife.
A beautiful 45 minute drive will take you across the mountains to Ronda, brimming with history and interest. The Mediterranean, with its many beaches, golf courses and lively marinas is less than 30 minutes away.
