3 bedroom country house with yurt and swimming pool

A unique south-east facing 3-bedroom country house with yurt, swimming pool & spectacular sea and mountain views for sale, set in the hills above Alfamar, Salobreña on the Costa Tropical.

If you’re an artist, nature lover, or simply looking for a truly exceptional country property offering charm, character, privacy, and endless possibilities, this unique three-bedroom cortijo could be the perfect opportunity.

Located just an 8-minute drive above the Alfamar Urbanisation and the N-342, in Salobreña on the Costa Tropical, this remarkable rural retreat combines traditional Andalusian charm with breathtaking scenery and a wonderfully versatile outdoor lifestyle.

The property is accessed via a private gated driveway leading to the main house, swimming pool, and a selection of attractive wooden cabins.

The house is entered through a charming covered terrace with double-glazed sliding glass doors, leading into a bright sunroom/conservatory and then through to the wonderful main hub of the house — the living and dining area. Featuring vaulted wooden-beamed ceilings and a wood-burning stove, this welcoming room has a warm and characterful atmosphere. It also benefits from air conditioning (hot/cold), making it a comfortable space to enjoy throughout the year.

The ground floor also offers a fitted kitchen, shower room, and a double bedroom.

A striking metal staircase leads to the upper mezzanine level, where two further double bedrooms enjoy spectacular views across the surrounding countryside, mountains, and coastline.

The exterior of the property offers a swimming pool (7m x 3.5m), a variety of terraces, and three charming wooden cabins currently used as art studios and workshops. These versatile spaces could also be adapted for creative pursuits, guest use, hobbies, or additional storage, all enjoying breathtaking views across the surrounding mountains, the Mediterranean Sea, and the historic castle of Salobreña. The house and garden are fully fenced, with a separate fenced kennel area.

The true highlight of this remarkable property is tucked away at the bottom of the garden. A short stroll from the main house leads to a beautifully traditional yurt, creating a magical private retreat with its own separate wooden kitchen, private bathroom, and outdoor dining area surrounded by a beautifully planted shaded garden filled with a wonderful variety of trees and shrubs. The land extends down to the dry river bed, with the possibility of accommodating a further yurt.

Whether used as guest accommodation, a wellness retreat, or a peaceful creative escape, this unique space offers exceptional versatility and further enhances the lifestyle appeal of the property.

The extensive grounds (approximately 6400m²), and mature flat garden with irrigation system, offer a wonderful selection of fruit trees including almond, olive, mulberry, orange, lime, mandarin, avocado, plum, mango, pomegranate, and grapevines.

This is a rare opportunity to own a property that perfectly combines traditional Andalusian character with a truly unique way of living, making it ideal for artists, nature lovers, or anyone seeking peace, privacy, and the freedom of outdoor living.

The property has mains electricity, excellent internet coverage, and, as with many country properties, water is supplied from the local agricultural community reservoir and stored in an on-site tank, with one hour of water rights every 10 days, ensuring a dependable and cost-effective year-round supply.

Nestled on a serene hillside, this charming property is just a 12–15 minute drive from superb beaches and the idyllic coastal towns of Salobreña and Almuñécar, both offering an excellent selection of restaurants, shops, bars, and supermarkets.

The larger town of Motril offers a good range of supermarkets and shops, the excellent 18-hole Los Moriscos Golf Club and prestigious Yacht Club.

The property is approximately 60-80 minutes drive to vibrant cities of Malaga and Granada both with international airports and the Sierra Nevada ski resort approximately 100 kms, making this an ideal retreat for refined Mediterranean living throughout the year.

Ideal as a permanent home, holiday retreat, or creative escape, this is a truly exceptional property that must be viewed to fully appreciate everything it has to offer.
