A single-level country house with 11.2 hectares of river-valley land

Eleven hectares of private land beside the Manilva River set this property apart from standard rural listings on the coast. This 5 bedroom finca - cortijo in Casares combines a 370 m² built area with 112,000 m² of largely undeveloped ground, a legal water well, and mains electricity. This one is five minutes from the coast of Casares and Manilva, with straightforward road access from both the A-7 and the AP-7.

The main house and the two-storey annex

The main residence is laid out entirely on a single level, which removes stairs from daily life and makes the house practical for all ages. A 60 m² living room with high vaulted ceilings and a fireplace forms the centre of the plan, lit by large windows. The kitchen measures 20 m² and is fitted with rustic wooden cabinetry. Four of the five bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, and a separate guest toilet serves the fifth bedroom and visitors. Having four en-suite rooms on one floor makes the layout straightforward when adult family members stay over.

Separate from the main house is a 50 m² annex arranged over two floors with its own independent entrance. A buyer can use this secondary building for visiting friends or live-in staff without sharing the main kitchen or living quarters.

112,000 m² of agricultural land and outdoor space

Outside the main house, a southwest-facing front porch with a partially covered pergola looks towards the Sierra de la Utrera. Because of the southwest orientation, this porch takes the afternoon and evening sun while keeping dining tables shaded under the pergola structure.

Beyond the immediate garden, the 112,000 m² plot (27.7 acres) currently holds a small plantation of 25 avocado trees, while the rest of the acreage remains open for new use. The land is suitable for tropical fruit cultivation, such as mangoes and further avocados, as well as Moscatel grape vineyards renowned in the region, or an equestrian facility. Crucially for any agricultural or horse-keeping plan in southern Spain, the estate has its own registered legal water well alongside connected mains electricity.

The Manilva River setting and what to check on site

The land sits next to the Manilva River, a short walk from the famous Baños de la Hedionda. Access into the wider Hedionda area crosses a 16th-century bridge, restored in the 18th century as part of the historic local irrigation system and still in use today. When viewing this 5 bedroom finca - cortijo in Casares, a buyer with agricultural or equestrian plans should verify the exact boundary lines of the 112,000 m² plot, check the flow rate and extraction licence of the water well, and confirm whether the 370 m² built figure combines the main house and the 50 m² annex.
