This very pretty rustic country cottage is located along a good concrete country lane, 7 minutes' drive (3.2Kms) up 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 Vinuela.
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.
This property 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.
The property 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.

Buying a Property in Spain
1. Putting down a Holding Deposit
On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner. This part of the process is not binding. We would recommend using an independent English speaking legal advisor. Once a purchase price has been agreed, normally a holding or reserve deposit will be required to ensure the property is removed from the market. The sum required will vary between properties and will be based on the purchase price. A time limit for the preagreement to be signed will be arranged and there will also be legal checks to be made.
2. Setting up a Pre-agreement (Contrato privado de compraventa)
The pre-agreement will set out the conditions under which the Buyer and Seller agree to complete the purchase of the property and the price they have agreed upon. Relevant details will generally be included for example the property details, purchase price and the date for completion. A deposit will be required at this point, this will vary, but will generally be 10% of the agreed price. This agreement will include a penal clause if the sale does not go through. If the seller pulls out of the sale your compensation will be double the deposit you have paid, but if you decide not to go through with the sale then your deposit will be lost. Certain checks will need to be made before signing the contract, checks should be made against the title of the property, mortgage status and if the property has any debts held against it. The planning status should also be looked into. These conditions can be varied by the seller and the buyer and other types of agreement can be made.
3. The Contract (Escritura de compraventa)
Before a non-Spanish purchaser can buy a Spanish property they will need to have set up a Spanish bank account and obtained a Spanish tax number (NIE). The completion will take place in the presence of a Notary Public. This is a Spanish public official, by law the deed of sale must be witnessed by a Notary Public. You will also need your own independent, expert legal advisor to act on your behalf. On Completion the buyer must pay the balance, that is the price agreed after the deposit has been deducted, plus any other fees on the completion date. Both buyer and seller must sign the Escritura de compraventa contract, (this is the Spanish equivalent of the title deeds). The title deeds (escritura) will be given to the buyer, this will be done in the presence of a Notary Public, they will certify that the transfer has taken place. The tax office will be sent a copy and the property registry will be informed of the transfer.
