CHARMING & CHARACTERFUL ~ SPACIOUS TERRACE ~ PANORAMIC VIEWS
Located in a peaceful residential corner of Gaucín, this delightful semi-detached village house captures the timeless charm of rural Andalucía. Brimming with character and enjoying wonderful countryside views to the south-west and distant corner of the Mediterranean coastline, it offers an idyllic retreat in one of southern Spain's most beautiful ‘white’ villages.
Just a short stroll from a choice of tapas bars, small shops and several excellent restaurants, the property enjoys a tranquil setting while remaining within easy walking distance of village life.
Full of authentic Andalusian character, the house combines rustic charm with comfortable living, making it an ideal holiday home or lock-up-and-leave property from which to explore the spectacular countryside of western Andalucía.
Ground floor
A traditional antique wooden entrance door opens into a small entrance hall. A secure lockable storage room provides valuable space for owners wishing to leave personal belongings when the property is rented and, if renovated, it could equally accommodate a sofa bed for occasional guests.
First floor
The homely, open-plan living space is inviting and full of natural light. The cosy kitchen flows naturally into the comfortable sitting room, where a recently installed wood-burning stove creates a warm focal point during the cooler months. A separate dining room, thoughtfully converted from the original covered terrace, enjoys feature arched windows that frame the delightful views.
Exposed oak beams, terracotta floor tiles and traditional features create a warm, authentic atmosphere. French doors open directly onto the generous terrace, allowing indoor and outdoor living to blend effortlessly.
The expansive sun terrace enjoys magnificent panoramic views across the countryside, with a glimpse of the distant Mediterranean coastline. This leisure area provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining while watching the sun set behind the iconic El Hacho mountain.
Upper floor
The light and airy principal bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and lovely west-facing views, while the adjacent double guest bedroom shares the same attractive outlook. Both rooms also feature lovely oak-beamed ceilings adding to the property’s traditional character. A spacious family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower above.
Terrace
Facing south-west, the terrace is undoubtedly a highlight of the property. It enjoys sun most of the day, but has a retractable awning to provide some shade. Whether enjoying morning coffee or a glass of wine as evening falls, the ever-changing views across the surrounding countryside, the distant Mediterranean and the dramatic silhouette of El Hacho create an unforgettable backdrop. The spectacular sunsets enjoyed from this terrace are simply magical.
