Rural autonomy off the Casares Pueblo road

Facing south to west, this 4 bedroom finca - cortijo with private pool in Casares takes the sun from midday right through to sunset. Known as Finca Ricardo, the property covers a built area of 175 square metres and is reached via a one-kilometre private driveway, removing road noise and passing traffic from daily life.

Inside the main house and the separate structure

The accommodation is split between the main Andalusian building and an independent structure. Inside the main house, a fully fitted country-style kitchen includes a dining area, while the living room centres on an original fireplace. Three of the bedrooms sit within the main walls: a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, and two guest bedrooms that share the second bathroom. The fourth bedroom or work space is provided by a separate tiny house, which keeps visiting guests, an office, or a studio detached from the household routine. Having 175 square metres across four bedrooms means the rooms are proportioned for practical country living rather than cavernous open-plan layouts.

Nearly 2.5 hectares of land and outdoor space

The defining measure of this 4 bedroom finca - cortijo with private pool in Casares is its 24,990 square metre plot. Around the house, a 36 square metre terrace with a barbecue area handles outdoor meals without demanding the upkeep of sprawling paved courtyards. The garden includes a private pool fitted with an optional cover, allowing use outside the peak summer months, alongside private parking. Higher up on the land, a hilltop section holds views of the sea and the mountains, offering a clear spot for buyers who want to set up a seating area away from the house.

Water, power, and road access

Country properties on the Costa del Sol stand or fall by their infrastructure. Here, electricity and hot water run off 20 solar panels, while cooking and heating rely on gas bottles. Water comes from two private wells on the land. A buyer viewing the property should check the seasonal yield of both wells, the battery capacity or inverter specifications of the solar array, and the surface condition of the one-kilometre track. The turn-off sits at kilometre 8.5 on the road linking Casares Costa to Casares Pueblo, just past the Finca Cortesin Golf & Country Club and Venta Victoria, meaning coastal errands and restaurants remain a straightforward drive down the hill.
