Trevenez Country Estate is a fully renovated cortijo located in the Montes de Málaga mountain range. Situated at an elevation of 237 meters, the property features 999 m² of living space on a 3,800 m² plot. The estate offers unobstructed views of the surrounding mountains and is located inland, approximately 10 km from the coast as the crow flies. Access to the city of Málaga and the airport is via secondary roads. The property includes fruit trees and a private water well.
Compared to coastal projects like Arosa in Mijas or Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola, this estate offers significantly more space and privacy but requires compromises regarding walking distance to beaches and shops. While Astra Homes in Fuengirola focuses on urban amenities at a lower price, this estate positions itself as an exclusive retreat for those willing to travel for peace.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in the Montes de Málaga, a mountainous area north of the city. The immediate vicinity is characterized by a forested landscape, ensuring direct access to nature. The house is situated on a secluded plot without direct neighbors, providing a high degree of privacy. The access road consists of a 1.5 km well-maintained dirt track.
With 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, this estate accommodates large families or multi-generational living. The inclusion of a separate guest apartment and various living areas makes it suitable for use as a workspace or for hosting guests. The property orientation faces south, maximizing natural light in the main living areas.
This is an existing property that has recently undergone complete renovation. The renovation includes updated facilities and finishing. The original structure is historical, but technical installations have been modernized. The current condition is listed as 'excellent'.
The location is inland and requires a car for all transportation; public transport is not available at the doorstep. The access road is unpaved. Daily amenities like supermarkets are 8 km away. The property is not beachfront and requires travel to reach coastal amenities.
This estate suits buyers wishing to escape coastal hustle. It fits large families or those operating exclusive rental businesses or events, respecting nature regulations. It appeals to those who enjoy gardening and require extensive outdoor space.
The finish blends historical elements with modern comfort. Original wine fermentation vats are preserved as architectural features. Technical systems, including electrics and plumbing, are renewed. Heating is supplemented by a wood-burning stove with a circulation system. Bathrooms feature en-suite facilities.
The asking price is €1,195,000. This secures a substantial plot and significant living area.

The pricing reflects the land size, renovation quality, and nature reserve location.

The elevation of 237 meters ensures ventilation and cooler nights. The outdoor space accommodates various activities, from swimming in the private pool to maintaining the olive and almond groves.
