About El Curato Urbanisation

El Curato is a very unique urbanisation because is was created in the 1980s and each property enjoys a large plot of land and the entire urbanisation has a lot of mature trees which gives natural privacy and a feeling of being in the countryside and not on an urbanisation. El Curato is a very natural urbanisation, not manicured with the countryside spoilt.

The urbanisation benefits from land-line phones being available for connection with Broadband Internet also and of course mains water and electricity are connected.

The urbanisation has less than 20 properties on it and each villa is well spaced from the other (plot sizes of 5,000M2+).

It is also a very quiet place to live and enjoy the fabulous countryside that surrounds it yet also, it benefits from a good quality tarmac country road that passes the urbanisation. This road is very infrequently used but usefully for easy access. This particular villa is the furthest back from the road and has a huge rock hill between it and the country road so the villa hears no traffic noise at all but has excellent access to the coast or inland. A win-win situation all round!

Accommodation

Conservatory which also acts as the entrance hallway with water deposit below (a back-up despite being on mains water).

Large open-plan and impressive kitchen/dining room/living rooms that are framed by arches that define each area beautifully.

The kitchen is of good quality with granite work surfaces and built-in appliances including; an American style fridge freezer and dishwasher. A wood burning stove heats this area.

The central living room which is part of the open-plan living area has a large window but has a cosy feel. Then through another arch brings you to a second sitting room with feature arch window, French glass doors, gas wood burning stove and a door that leads to the rear alfresco dining terrace.

Master bedroom 1 is a good size double with fitted wardrobes and air-conditioning, plus a window with a lovely view of the surrounding countryside.

Bedroom 2 is a small single or bunk bedroom with fitted wardrobe that is ideal for children or maybe could be used as a study.

Family shower room fully tiled with a Spa shower with seat, WC and a double basin set within a vanitory unit.

Independent bedroom 3 is a good size double bedroom with air-conditioning and an en-suite shower room. Located outside of the main villa with separate entrance. Being on urban land, it could be possible to extend this bedroom/bathroom into a full blown annex with kitchen/living/dining room. This would need planning consent but there is no reason why this would not be granted. There is also a separate driveway with gated entrance to the top of the land that could be used for this annex only.

Swimming pool & pool terrace

The pool is exceptional in shape, depth and size (10 meters long) and even more special when you add in the views and spacious sunbathing terrace. The Montes de Malaga mountain ranges can be viewed from here and even the Mediterranean Sea. The pool is chlorine and has two ways into the water via Roman steps at the shallow end or via stairs at the deep end. An alfresco dining pergola is located on the terrace which could double as a shady area for lounging if preferred. A brick built BBQ finishes the alfresco enjoyment of the pool terrace.

Roof terrace with panoramic views

The spacious roof terrace is the perfect place to sit and enjoy a sunset G&T or glass of wine. From here you can see the El Torcal mountain to the North, the surrounding countryside, the Montes de Malaga mountain ranges to the South and of course, the Mediterranean Sea.

Rear terrace secluded and protected

This rear terrace is accessed from the living room and can also be reached from the independent bedroom. This is a protected space, fully sheltered and completely private. It is the perfect place to enjoy a relaxed lunch and enjoy some sunshine even when the roof terrace may be too exposed. It would be easy to cover this space to create an outside lounge area.

Gardens

The gardens are very special because they are a mix of gently cultivated areas including seating areas with plants to enjoy year round. In addition, there are completely natural areas of land that are perfect for nature, wildlife and insects. The land benefits from a selection of beautiful trees, palms and plants from the area. Nature trails could easily be created through the entire plot that would make a magical garden with secret areas and paths. The natural red rock of the area has deposited huge boulders that become features throughout the garden. This rock helps to create atmosphere. Swings from trees and a tree house could be installed (ideal for children). Even a walking trail to enjoy walking with dogs around the entire 6,000M2 plot could be created. The opportunities on this fully fenced and gated land are endless.

Outbuiding

A storeroom or workshop, ideal for the storage of gardening equipment is located near to the outside independent guest bedroom with en-suite. This currently houses one of the boilers and a washing machine.

Building an independent guest cottage with complete privacy from the main house is a very viable option. The land that is beside the lower, winding concrete driveway is completely private from the main house and neighbours because of mature trees. If desired, an independent guest cottage with smaller swimming pool could be built with permission from the town hall (because of the Urban classification of the land and generous size of the plot). A very private and pretty cottage surrounded by wild mature trees, palms and shrubs could be created here with easy access.

Almogia (5 mins drive)

Almogia is a pueblo blanco white village dating back to Moorish times where the remains of a hill top Moorish castle can still be seen today. It is a vertical village with the old part being in the maze of streets on the hill and the modern part being at the top of the village. It is a large municipality and has a 24hr medical centre with on-stand-by ambulance and helipad, a police station, post office, large supermarket, bars, restaurants and many small shops selling anything from haberdashery, jewellery, pastries and bread, meat, fish and vegetables and clothes. There are schools for those children of nursery age (2 to 4 years), junior school and senior school. The sport centre is very good and the football team does very well and has just gone up to the next league.

Villanueva de la Concepcion

This busy and bustling town just 20 mins drive north of the villa has everything you need for modern day living and if you continue North for another 20 minutes, you reach the stunning and very historic city of Anequera.

The coastal motorway, airport & the beaches (35 mins drive)

It does not take long to drive down the winding road to the coastal motorway that will whisk you East or West. Malaga airport is very conveniently located as are the beaches. Los Alamos beach is a little know gem (located just West of Malaga city and just East of Torremolinos). It is an immaculately maintained wide stretch of sand backed by chiringuitos (beach bar/restaurants built on the sand).
