Cottage by River Cortes DLF

September 28, 2023

1 Bed Cottage Cortes de la Frontera

Dream cottage with own river access. This unpretentious property offers 1 bed 1 bath with open plan kitchen / sitting room and a dining room. This bungalow can be extended at the back towards the river and another floor added. The garden is five to six times the size of the house and has a barbecue area, swings and slide, plus pool and private access to the Guadiaro River – the largest and purest in Andalucia.

Garden with pool and river beach

Exceptional opportunity to buy a lock up and leave property for weekend breaks or to rent out as a ‘vivienda rural’ for holiday makers. The cottage is lovely. It has a cosy fireplace, a portable oven and a two burner hob. The bedroom has a large double bed and bunk beds and the en-suite with quarter bath is quirky yet functional. The magic continues to the garden and beyond. It is quite a large space, very tranquil and private and fully furnished including swings and slide with climbing frame. The pool is an ‘above ground’ circular one of some 4,000 litres; perfect for family fun.

Sold Fully Furnished

Another wonderful feature is that the house is sold fully equipped and there is brand new garden furniture – a table with 6 chairs on the raised deck/terrace and a shiny gas barbecue. There are also sun loungers underneath the shade of the trees and another bbq zone with wood and charcoal. There are parasols to protect from the heat and an inflatable kayak to launch from your own private mooring. Adventures aplenty beckon.

Location – Cortes de la Frontera

This is in the zone known as Cañada Real del Tesoro, near the railway station. There aren’t many trains only four per day; two in each direction so a vehicle is a must. The turn off for Cortes DLF is only five minutes outside of Gaucin then comes a leisurely 230m meander which takes about 10-15 minutes. It is steep and whirly, but beautiful. The property is in the valley near shops and a school and alongside the Guadiaro river, not many kilometres from the famous Cañón de las Buitreras. This is a fantastic area for country rambles and bird watching. Switch off from the pressures of life and recharge the batteries. Ronda, the ‘big city’ in these parts, is 45 minutes away and somewhere well worth a visit.

Great Price Turnkey Property

89,000 € gets you a fully furnished 1 bed 1 bath with large garden and private river beach with ‘launch pad’ for kayaks. There is also the possibility of adding 2 further bedrooms with bathrooms – converting the outdoor cloakroom and storage cupboard into en-suites for the bedrooms. Check out the location and if you feel it’s for you, view now.

This property is exclusively listed by TMTSPAIN. However, we are happy to collaborate with other agencies and THERE IS NO COMMISSION FOR BUYERS.
