Finca / Cortijo in Viñuela

Perched above the Axarquia valley, this expansive House / Finca - Cortijo in Viñuela offers a rare blend of historical character and commercial potential. The estate is defined by its traditional courtyard architecture and a privileged position that captures 360-degree vistas. From the shimmering turquoise waters of Lake Viñuela to the dramatic peaks of the Sierra Tejeda and the distant Mediterranean horizon, the scenery provides a constantly changing backdrop of natural beauty. This property is perfect for those seeking a sanctuary that combines privacy with the potential for a high-end hospitality venture.

The residence spans an impressive 548 m² of built area, intelligently divided into two distinct buildings. The main house serves as a spacious five-bedroom family home, retaining the solid foundations of its 1950s construction.

Built directly onto solid rock, the structural integrity of the estate is unmatched, ensuring a cool climate during the summer and a sense of permanence that is rare in modern builds.

Viñuela is a destination celebrated by outdoor enthusiasts, offering world-class hiking, mountain biking, and water sports on the lake.
