Description
2 bedrooms – 1 bathroom – dining terrace – garden – sea views – walled courtyard with jacuzzi – beautiful, rustic style throughout – no dirt track – mains water, electricity and photovoltaic solar panels
A traditional, rustic style country house in perfect condition, set amongst a cluster of cottages 25 minutes inland from the sea on the Southern coastal hills.
Location
This very pretty rustic country cottage is located along a good concrete country lane, 7 minutes’ drive (3.2Kms) uphill from the village of Triana, in the sub tropical valley of Velez Malaga. Here there are mangos and avocado trees growing in their thousands along the warm hillsides of the valley.
Velez-Malaga and the coast at Torre del Mar is around 15/20 minutes’ drive and also within 10 minutes are the villages of Los Romanes and Viñuela.
The property
This little cluster of rustic cottages could not be more authentic, located along what was once a mule track leading down from the hills towards the coast. The houses here date back well into the last century and are now owned by a mixture of Spanish and foreign owners looking for the real Spain! It is warm, peaceful and quiet, and quite relaxing! Casa Jazmines dates from 1935.
There is a shared parking area with an allocated parking spot for one car (but there are other nearby places to park for any visitors). A garden gate leads to the West facing terraces of the property. These consist of a lower garden terrace at the gate, with a walled terrace behind it accessed via a door (currently holding a beautiful 5-seater jacuzzi which is sold with the property) and an upper terrace (just two steps up) to the dining terrace with wonderful views to the Western hills and countryside, and magnificent at sunset! The two open terraces are 8.5 x 4.5m in total and the walled terrace is around 3 x 3m. For anyone wanting a pool, it might be possible to convert the current walled patio into a small pool, by lowering, strengthening and waterproofing the walls.
From the dining terrace, double wooden doors lead into the kitchen. This is an open plan, fully fitted kitchen and beyond is the dining area. The entire kitchen/dining area is 8 x 3m with original beams on the ceiling.
To the right of the kitchen/dining area, an arch through the thick walls leads to the living room, with double wooden doors leading out to the South patio garden. The living room is 7.5 x 3.5m, with beams and a brick surround fireplace installed with a traditional wood burner for cosy Winter evenings.
At the far end of the living room is the door to Bedroom 1, up a few steps. This room is 3.5 x 3m and has a lovely wooden window with views to the sea.
The South patio garden, accessed from the living room, consists of a patio area for table and chairs with flowering shrubs, wall climbers and bushes all around, with views across the countryside and the sea in the distance. A curved garden wall with little garden gate forms the boundary. The gate leads out to a little lane that meanders up the side of the little cluster of houses – the ideal place to chat to your neighbours as they stroll down the lane and to enjoy the south facing sunshine.
Back in the dining area, to the far end is a doorway on the left into the bathroom. This is 3 x 2.5m with a bath and separate shower unit, electric panel heating unit and two beamed wooden windows. Another opening from the rear of the dining area leads into the ‘office’ (3.25 x 2m excluding the stairway) and stairs leading upstairs.
At the top of the stairs is a good sized landing area, large enough to have a sofabed as extra accommodation, and installed with a wood burner. The room is open to the stairwell, (3.25 x 2m excluding stairwell) with a curtained opening into Bedroom 2 (3 x 3m). This bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and a view towards the sea from the window. At the other end of the landing is a doorway out to the upper terrace. This lovely terrace is in two parts of 8 x 3.5m and 4 x 3m with built-in seating area and wonderful, open views to the sea and countryside.
Casa Jazmines is in perfect condition, having been lovingly improved and enjoyed by its current owners.
The house has a new electric hot water boiler and new photovoltaic solar panels that dramatically decrease electricity bills. The kitchen and bathroom are both recently refurbished and improved.
For those wishing to live a true country life and enjoy ‘real Spain’, this could be the place for you!
