Details
SOLD: Calle Granada 1a. is located on the outskirts of the village, a spacious 2 bed, 1 bath apartment with the added benefit of having a garden area which could be used for growing vegetables as well as fruit trees. There is also a spacious terrace looking out onto wonderful views of the countryside.
The property is over 400 years old and originally one of the bedrooms was used to house a donkey (every household in the village used to own a donkey!). The other bedroom was a wine cellar. Renovated by the owners in 2005 along with Casa Calle Granada 1, the apartment was used for holiday lets as well as long term rentals.
The nature park is only a 5 minute walk from the apartment as is the village centre which offers a grocery store, a weekly market and bars and restaurants. The beach at Torre del Mar is a 35 min drive and Malaga is just over a one hour drive .
There are plenty of hiking opportunities on your doorstep as well as all local amenities such as bars, restaurants, a local grocery store and a weekly market. There are other Moorish white villages to visit close by, the coast of Torre del Mar is approx 35 mins away and you can reach the beautiful city of Malaga in approx. 1 hour.
