Finca – Cortijo in Alhaurín el Grande

Tucked away in the magical countryside of Barranco Blanco, this estate is more than just a home, it’s a private sanctuary where life moves at a slower, more beautiful pace. Surrounded by rolling hills, waterfalls, and lush greenery, you’ll feel a world away from the bustle, while still being just minutes from the charming towns of Alhaurín el Grande and Coín, and within easy reach of Málaga and the coast.

As you pass through the electric gates and wind your way down the long driveway, you’re immediately greeted by gardens that feel like a hidden paradise; ancient trees, carpets of green lawn, ponds with fish, and orchards heavy with mangos and avocados. There’s even a small waterfall at the edge of the plot, adding to the sense of calm and connection with nature.

At the heart of the estate is the main residence, a beautifully styled Mediterranean Boho villa designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The light-filled interiors flow effortlessly, from the elegant living spaces to a show-stopping Bulthaup Kitchen with vaulted ceilings and a central island where family and friends naturally gather. Three serene bedroom suites offer comfort and privacy, while a versatile upstairs room looks out over the pool and landscaped grounds; the perfect spot for an office, a cosy snug, or an extra bedroom for guests.

Step outside and life unfolds around the terraces and pool area, where you’ll spend lazy afternoons soaking up the sun and warm evenings dining under the stars. The estate offers endless ways to enjoy the outdoors; a barbecue porch by a tranquil fish pond, a large sports court for tennis or basketball, shaded corners to read and relax, and lush gardens to wander.

Adding to the charm is a separate guest house, designed in a breezy Ibizan style, with its own courtyard, leading to a kitchen, and private spaces. Its separately housed kitchen (fully fitted) creates an authentic Mediterranean courtyard feel; ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Every element of this estate invites you to live more fully in the moment; to wake up to birdsong, pick fresh fruit from the orchard, gather loved ones for long Sunday lunches, or simply watch the sunset from your terrace as the sky glows over the hills of Barranco Blanco.

This is not just a property; it’s a lifestyle of peace, privacy, and tranquillity; all within easy reach of Málaga and the Costa del Sol.

• Main Mediterranean Boho-style villa (360 m²) with three bedrooms, each with ensuite and built-in wardrobes

• Versatile top-floor room with views over the pool and gardens – perfect as a snug, office, or extra bedroom

Living in Barranco Blanco is all about peace, privacy, and a connection with nature. Set among rolling hills, orange and avocado orchards, and tranquil countryside, it feels like a world away from city life, yet the conveniences of modern living are never far. Imagine waking up to birdsong, enjoying morning coffee with panoramic views, and walking or cycling along quiet country lanes, this is the essence of a relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle.

Despite its peaceful, rural setting, the estate is ideally located between the charming towns of Coín and Alhaurín el Grande. Coín, with its historic centre, artisan shops, and bustling weekly market, offers everything from cafés and restaurants to sports clubs and local festivals.

Alhaurín el Grande provides a mix of traditional Andalusian culture, modern amenities, and a vibrant local community. Both towns make daily life easy while giving you the flexibility to enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside.

For those who love the Costa del Sol lifestyle, the beaches of Málaga, Marbella, and Fuengirola are just a short drive away, making it easy to combine rural privacy with seaside leisure.

The area also offers excellent schools (private and state), golf courses, hiking trails, and a welcoming expatriate community, providing the perfect balance between country living and convenience.

In Barranco Blanco, you can truly have the best of both worlds: the serenity of a private, natural retreat, coupled with easy access to towns, culture, and the coast; a lifestyle that is quintessentially Andalusian, yet effortlessly modern.
