Enchanting Andalusian Villa with Guest House and Mountain Views in Gaucin, Malaga

Nestled in an idyllic riverside setting near the picturesque village of Gaucín, this exceptional country property is a beautifully restored mill of Arab origin offering charm, privacy, and remarkable lifestyle potential. Positioned beside the tranquil waters of the Genal River and surrounded by mature trees and lush gardens, the home is a true oasis of peace where the gentle sound of flowing water creates an atmosphere many visitors describe as paradise.

Set within a vibrant natural landscape that remains green throughout the year, the property enjoys spectacular views of the dramatic Sierra Crestellina, creating a unique combination of countryside serenity and striking mountain scenery. Its versatility makes it equally suited as a spacious permanent residence with guest accommodation or as a boutique Bed & Breakfast or rural retreat.

The main house is arranged across three floors and currently offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms, together with a fully equipped studio and several storage areas. On the ground floor, the original weaving mill space provides exciting conversion potential for additional bedrooms or living areas. A separate entrance leads to a charming fully equipped kitchen featuring fitted pitch pine cabinetry and a traditional open fireplace, creating a warm and authentic ambiance.

A staircase from the ground-floor kitchen opens onto the first floor, where a master bedroom and bathroom in elegant Moorish style are complemented by two further bedrooms, a laundry area and storage space that could also be adapted for guest accommodation. This level also hosts the main living quarters of the home, including a large fully equipped kitchen and a bright living room with impressive floor-to-ceiling glass doors and windows that open onto a generous terrace showcasing breathtaking mountain views. From this terrace, steps lead down to a small pool fed by water from the nearby river.

The second floor features a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a private terrace overlooking the gardens and offering views towards the village of Gaucín. A separate guest house provides excellent privacy with its own terrace, a large bedroom, fully equipped kitchen and bathroom, making it ideal for visitors or rental use.

The exterior of the property is equally appealing, with mature landscaped gardens filled with colourful flowers, lawn areas and peaceful shaded corners perfect for relaxation. Additional exterior buildings offer extensive storage and flexible space for garage or workshop use. The property benefits from water sourced from the Genal River, electricity generated through solar panels with a private generator backup, fast internet via a local provider and ample parking areas.

Despite its tranquil and secluded atmosphere, the property enjoys convenient access to nearby amenities and transport links. It is approximately 20 minutes from Gaucín village, 40 minutes from the coast and the city of Estepona, one hour from Gibraltar Airport and around 90 minutes from Málaga Airport.

This enchanting riverside estate offers a rare opportunity to embrace a peaceful, nature-focused lifestyle with exceptional privacy, character and versatility. Surrounded by a rich natural environment and accompanied by the soothing sound of flowing river water, it represents a truly special Andalusian retreat.

    Holli provided us with first rate services for buying an apartment in Malaga, Spain. Not only does she possess an intimate knowledge of the area, her advice was thoughtful and timely. As Canadian buyers, Holli provided detailed information on how the the Spanish real estate system operates which is very different than home. I simply cannot imagine how we would have navigated our purchase without Hollli's input and advice. I highly recommend BeLuxe Properties to any real estate purchaser from Canada.

    It is always a pleasure to work with Ryan (BeLuxe Properties), an exceptional real estate agent. Highly professional, extremely dedicated and always willing to go and do far more than is required. He combines deep knowledge with an exceptional level of commitment and personal attention. Always available and fully involved in every detail of the process. It is clear that he truly enjoys and believes in what he does. I would gladly recommend him.

    Absolutely blown away by our experience in finding a holiday home with Ryan. He is truly amazing at his job, he works incredibly hard to make sure he finds the perfect properties to show you. His communication is incredible, he is always available to chat and to answer any questions. We were really unsure what exactly we wanted from our holiday home and within a few days Ryan had helped us narrow it down to just a couple of areas that were truly perfect for us, and helped us work out what our absolute “must haves” were and where we could make compromises! I love the personal touch he brings to the job and how patient and considerate he is in knowing how big a decision it is. He also recommended some amazing lawyers and other professionals to us along the way which is invaluable to us. I couldn’t recommend Ryan highly enough, we would never buy a holiday home on the Costa del Sol with anyone else and we would recommend him with complete confidence to anyone. Thank you so much Ryan!

    This is to express our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to Holli for not only her professional expertise, extreme knowledge, wise guidance and genuine care, but her constant effort and diligence in working with us to secure our new home. We traveled to Malaga from the States in March for a week of travel with Holli along the Costa Del Sol. I had established a start to working with Holli via email months prior. From the moment of introduction I felt a sense of connection, confidence and knew we were in good hands. Holli began collecting information on exactly our interests, type of home we were interested in, lifestyle and budget. She assisted us with setting our travel itinerary, making wonderful recommendations for lodging and had our entire week carefully and thoughtfully laid out. For five consecutive days we looked at properties thoughtfully curated to our needs and wants. On the last day, we knew we walked into our beautiful apartment in the charming old town of Estepona. Holli’s work did not stop there. She aligned us with all of the like minded and skilled colleagues she works with to continue to assist us in the transaction. A Spanish Lawyer to a Currency Exchange Broker, both of which have made this absolutely effortless for us and have given us a total peace of mind. It is quite rare in todays world to find someone who gives it their all, not only in their work professionally, but also personally. I would refer Holli to anyone thinking about or looking to make this step. It has truly been an amazing and wonderful, stress free and fun experience. We look so forward to our new life in Estepona and in addition to having a dear new friend in Holli. Warmly, Lisa and Greg

    Outstanding service I first met Ryan at a house we were viewing, where he was the seller’s agent. Before we had time to make a decision, he had already sold the place. But we thought he seemed like a great agent, so we asked him to be our buyer’s agent instead – and that turned out to be an understatement. He’s not just a good agent – he’s an excellent one. For over a year, Ryan has been helping us find the perfect home – and it wasn’t an easy task, since we had a long list of specific requirements and a limited budget. But Ryan never gave up, and we’ve just bought our dream house in Marbella – the one he found for us. Throughout the process, Ryan has again and again gone the extra mile for us. He’s been incredibly helpful, always quick to answer our many questions, keeping us updated and in the loop, and offering recommendations for everything from mortgage advisors and lawyers to contractors and car dealers – all of which made us feel safe during such a big investment in a market we didn’t know that well. On top of being helpful and professional, Ryan is also simply a pleasure to be around – which makes all the house viewings a much nicer experience. I can honestly give my highest recommendation to Ryan and the whole team at Belux Properties.
