Boutique Restored Farmhouse and Country Estate in Andalusia, Spain

This property is on the market for  €4,960,000. Contact +34 689 12 96 56 for more information or email info@cortijodelmoro.com

The cortijo is a traditional farmhouse found in the southern region of Spain, and this dreamy farmhouse is located near the charming pueblo blanco (white town) of Cortes de la Frontera on the Costa del Sol, set at the foot of the Sierra de Grazalema mountains.

Beautifully restored in 2009, the boutique property features interiors by the late distinguished designer Duarte Pinto Coelho, which are included in the sale.

Built around a central courtyard, Cortijo del Moro offers four bedrooms and five bathrooms, with a luxurious master suite on the ground level that opens onto a private Mediterranean garden.

The elegantly appointed living spaces feature authentic beamed ceilings and large windows that offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains.

There's also a gourmet kitchen with top-of-the-line Miele and Gaggenau appliances and the residence opens out onto a sunny terrace with a swimming pool overlooking the Andausian hills.

Modern upgrades include underfloor heating throughout, in addition to amenities like a wine cellar, and a spa area complete with a gym, Turkish bath, and jacuzzi.

The cortijo was built on the site of a Roman villa dating back to the first century, and there are Roman ruins visible near the house.

Nestled in 69 acres of lush grounds, the cortijo comes with a fenced area with a horse shelter, a chicken coop, and an organic vegetable garden, in addition to a palm tree grove.

Sold as is, the estate comes with two horses and one donkey, in addition to the option to retain the services of the existing property caretaker and housekeeper, trusted and indispensable assets to the estate’s daily operations and maintenance.

The Spanish country estate is just a three minute drive from the train station in Cortes de la Frontera, and is within easy reach of the historical town of Ronda and Gibraltar International Airport.
