Andalucia, Malaga, Ríogordo, Spain

Excellent lifestyle and income opportunity with this versatile property featuring 5 bedrooms in a peaceful rural setting yet just a short walk from a village with good facilities.

It is very unusual to find a country house that is on its own, with land, located very close to the village, but in the countryside, this house has easy parking outside for several cars.

A gate leads into the large front garden which is conveniently paved, to make a wonderful garden terrace.

The house is divided into two living units, one next to the other.

The main house consists of a huge living room with a log burner and a side door out to the side terrace, a large dining room, also with side door, and a fully fitted kitchen, with a downstairs WC on the ground floor.

Upstairs there is a large landing, with a living room area or office space, and three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom.

The guest house next door has a front door also from the front garden, with a similar layout to the main house, consisting on the ground floor of a living room, dining room and kitchen of similar dimensions, but with a complete shower room downstairs too, and gas fires currently installed in both the living room and the dining room.

Stairs from the living room lead up to a landing with a bedroom overlooking the rear garden, a door from the corridor out to a terrace (5 x 4.4m) with lovely views. On this level there is also bedroom 2 with an en-suite bathroom, bedroom 3 overlooking the front garden and a family bathoom.

The guest house needs a little light improvement, but only superficial work.

The houses have electric radiators in most rooms, as well as air conditioning in the main house in one bedroom (unit needs repair) and ceiling fans.

The land and gardens, consisting of 1,428m2, is divided into a large, paved front garden, walled and with an entrance gate with parking outside, a delightful side terrace, ideal for outdoor dining, with two doors into the dining room and kitchen of the main house, and a rear garden and orchard with a garden store room.

The front garden has many decorative trees and plants. The rear gardens consist of flat land on two levels, the lower level being dedicated to an orchard of fruit trees including figs, pomegranate, lemon, orange, caqui, plum and many grapevines producing delicious grapes.

The upper level can be made into a lawn or gardens, depending on what the new owners prefer, and is therefore ideal for anyone wishing to create a beautiful garden under the sun.

It would be possible to add an above ground pool on the lower level, such that it would be level on one side with the higher garden area.

This house offers space and plenty of options, such as rental of rooms or of the guest house, or as a small business, and it would also be ideal for two families wishing to buy together but have their own space.

It enjoys wonderful views, excellent outdoor and indoor space, and best of all, is only a very short walk into the lively village of Riogordo.
