Details
NEW: Casa Almendros is set in a great location with easy access via a newly concreted road. The house features many rustic details such as terracotta floors and wooden beamed ceilings. It offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area.
The covered porch and terrace provide welcome shade during the hot summer months, with a glimpse of the Mediterranean Sea in the distance. From the pool terrace you can enjoy panoramic views towards Mount Maroma and across the Andalusian countryside. The gardens are well established and easy to maintain, planted with Mediterranean shrubs and fruit trees
The property has been successfully rented on the holiday rental market for many years and benefits from excellent reviews.
The traditional white village of Sedella is just a five-minute drive away and offers all essential amenities, including a supermarket, small weekly market, bars and restaurants. Local favourites include:
· Restaurante El Chiringuito, where Víctor serves breakfast, lunch and dinner
· Posada Puente Romano, where César offers a regularly changing menu of homemade dishes
· Cosy bars on the village square, a grocery shop and in summer the open-air Bar El Chiringuito de Rafa
· Facilities such as a gym, playground, padel court, municipal summer pool and a visitor centre with exhibitions on local flora and fauna and guided walks
· Sedella Vinos, a boutique organic mountain winery offering tastings and tapas tours
Along the mountain roads you may still see goats and mules used by locals to work the land. At the edge of the village begins the Sierra de Tejeda Natural Park, with numerous walking routes including the spectacular El Saltillo trail between Sedella and Canillas de Aceituno, where you cross one of Spain’s longest suspension bridges (50 metres).
The property is close to the main mountain road to Sedella and Canillas de Aceituno. The coast at Torre del Mar is around 40 minutes away, Málaga Airport approximately one hour, and within two hours you can reach Granada and the ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada.
