Set within the protected landscape of the Montes de Málaga Natural Park, this substantial country estate enjoys a truly private and tranquil position surrounded by indigenous Mediterranean forest. Despite its seclusion, the property lies just 30 minutes from Malaga, the coast and the international airport — a rare balance between independence and accessibility.

The estate extends across six hectares and includes approximately 1,000 m² of built space distributed among several buildings. It is entirely off-grid, powered by a modern photovoltaic solar system with lithium batteries, supported by an automatic auxiliary generator when required. Water is supplied by both a spring and a well, serving the houses and the cultivated areas. A wastewater treatment system is also in place, making the property fully self-sufficient and eco-sustainable.

One of the distinguishing features of this finca is its abundant water supply — unusual within the Natural Park — allowing for productive agricultural use alongside complete independence from external utilities.

Main House

The principal residence is arranged over two floors.

On the ground floor:

  • Spacious living room with open fireplace

  • Large kitchen with access to a wine cellar for storing wine produced from the estate’s own vines

  • Bathroom

  • Sauna area and jacuzzi

Upstairs:

  • Three bedrooms

  • Two bathrooms, one en suite

  • Wide-reaching views over the surrounding mountains

The house benefits from central heating throughout, powered by propane gas stored in a 2,000-litre tank.

In front of the main entrance, a generous outdoor entertaining area includes a barbecue, oven and picnic space — ideal for gatherings in the open air.

Guest & Caretaker Accommodation

Connected via an interior patio planted with orange trees, there is separate guest accommodation comprising two bedrooms and a bathroom. In addition, a caretaker’s house provides four bedrooms and a bathroom.

Along the access road to the main house stands another building divided into various compartments, suitable for uses such as horse boxes, storage rooms and wine production.

Land, Orchard & Self-Sufficiency

The estate is surrounded by native flora and fauna, offering exceptional privacy with no near neighbours. Within the grounds are:

  • Organic orchard with fruit trees

  • Vegetable garden

  • Vineyard

  • Substantial henhouse

The combination of fertile land, reliable water and full energy independence makes the property particularly suited to those wishing to live sustainably or develop a small-scale agricultural lifestyle project.

Access is via a five-minute track requiring a 4x4 vehicle — a modest requirement in exchange for the property’s exceptional seclusion within a protected natural environment.

Málaga & Surroundings

Málaga provides comprehensive services including hospitals, international schools, cultural venues, shopping centres and high-speed transport connections. The nearby coastline offers beaches, marinas and year-round leisure facilities. Within the Natural Park itself, there are extensive opportunities for walking, cycling, horse riding and other outdoor pursuits.

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a large, completely off-grid estate in a protected natural park — offering privacy, water abundance and proximity to city and coast in equal measure.
