The traditional white town of El Colmenar (Gaucin Station) is one of particular charm - it has a small train station with several trains a day running between Algeciras and Ronda - a great advantage. The town is known as the gateway to the magnificent Los Alcornocales National Park, as it is the closest entry point to access the Las Buitreras Canyon.
a great advantage. The town is known as the gateway to the magnificent Los Alcornocales National Park, as it is the closest entry point to access the Las Buitreras Canyon.
The property is a single-storey building that is currently divided into two separate houses - each of the houses designed in an authentic Andalusian style, exudes charm and character - they have high vaulted ceilings with wooden beams and handmade stone floors to add an extra special element to the overall charm of the properties.
House 1: Rustic farmhouse style kitchen with window overlooking the terrace and gardens, leading to a large open-plan living room, which has a wood stove. At the end of this room, there is a bathroom and a large double bedroom.
House 2: Smaller rustic kitchen, large bedroom, which connects to a smaller bedroom and a bathroom.
Along the two houses, there is a beautiful terrace, covered in some parts and with fabulous views of the gardens and fruit orchards, taking advantage of the sound of the river and the singing of birds, a magical environment to enjoy nature in all its splendor.
The way in which the houses are distributed makes it very easy to convert them into a large house.
In addition to the houses, there are two buildings attached to the property: a large warehouse that could be converted into a separate guest house. The second building is a unique area, which has a Turkish bath and spa/gym - this area is really a large flexible space that could be used by a new owner in a variety of ways.
There is real potential to create a larger family home and to have two vacation rental homes.
The location of this farm is quite unique, as it offers absolute tranquility and privacy and yet, being located on the outskirts of the village, it is only a few minutes walk from the center of the town, which is a small bustling place, full of charming cobblestone streets and small restaurants/tapas bars.
Another unique feature and advantage is the easy access to the river. Unlike many riverfront properties, this one has access to natural pools, grass benches for sunbathing, and walking routes along the river.
The fertile land has been left without fertilizers for more than 25 years, so it offers many possibilities for organic farming. It would be ideal to turn it into a self-sustainable farm, with the installation of solar panels to generate energy.
Whatever you are looking for - a haven of peace away from the hustle and bustle of city life, or an opportunity to create a rural tourism business in Andalusia, this totally charming property offers many possibilities.
This is Andalusian life at its best.
