A jewel of a rural house with a traditional atmosphere out in the countryside of Colmenar. The house comprises a spacious living room with open plan kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. There is enough space at the side of the house to put in a large terrace of even a spacious conservatory, making this property absolutely suitable for permanent residence.

At that same side of the house is a garage, wich you could use as such, of course, but it would also make for a nice separate guest apartment. From here the views are gorgeous, over the mountains of the Montes de Malaga, where late January hundreds of almond trees with their cream-coloured blossom forbode spring. On clear days, you can even see the Mediterranean Sea from here. The location of the property is very rural. A track takes you to your own world, peaceful and quiet. And it has a mild microclimate, giving you the best of the Spanish winter.

Really a nice house with a number of very attractive aspects. Just look at the photos and imagine the furniture gone, and you will be surprised about the amount of space the house actually offers. The kitchen gives access to a small but functional patio. And from one of the bedrooms you walk onto a balcony from which you have magnificent views over the red-tiled roofs of Colmenar and the surrounding landscape.

But the house also has a second floor with a spacious roof terrace, perfect to enjoy the sun, while overlooking the vast valley all the way up to the high, snow-covered peaks of the Sierra Nevada. So it may be modest in size, but a complete and qualitatively very good home. The current owner has a mortgage on the house, which makes it possible to buy this property with about 25,000 euros in cash. There you go, buying your own piece of Spain is now very feasible.

The property stands in a valley that borders the Montes de Malaga natural park and from here there are several tracks right through the mountains to the sea.
