Casa DI Campagna A Gaucín: Dove La Terra Sussurra La Sua Eredità

Cortijo del Molino Genal · Gaucín – Casares

There are places one does not merely own; they are listened to, breathed in, and cherished. Framed by the serene silhouette of the mountain range and washed by the Genil River, this cortijo is far more than a rustic estate: it is an 8-hectare living canvas designed for those who view the land as a calling, a sanctuary, and an art form.

The Breath of History

Born in 1860 upon the foundations of an ancient mill, the architectural ensemble exhales the solemnity of centuries past without sacrificing modern refinement. Its three structures, restored in a seamless symbiosis of aesthetic authenticity and structural integrity, feature:

●     8 bedrooms bathed in Mediterranean light.

●     3 living rooms where exposed wood and terracotta preserve the warmth of the hearth.

●     1 office/study designed for quiet inspiration and retreat.

●     5 bathrooms integrated with understated elegance.

Every wall speaks of a slower era; every room preserves the dignity of true rural heritage, fully backed by complete legal compliance (DAFO documentation).

The Art of the Earth and the Vine

For the entrepreneurial spirit who dreams of living off the fruits of their labor, the estate pulses with an established agricultural rhythm:

●     The Vineyard and Wine Press (Largar): 230 vines of Tempranillo and Syrah varieties feed a private wine press—the alchemical heart where grapes are transformed into signature craft wine.

●     The Olive Grove and Orchards: 123 olive trees offering the mountain’s liquid gold, alongside the citrus sweetness of orange and mandarin trees.

●     The Emerald Avocado Grove: A thriving, dense plantation of 900 avocado trees, arranged in perfect rows that stretch toward the riverbank.

Water Engineering and Sustainability

The abundance of this oasis rests upon an impeccable water infrastructure. Water—the sovereign treasure of the estate—is managed with exacting precision:

●     3 deep bore wells feed the crops via an automated drip irrigation system.

●     A monumental 100,000-liter cistern, in extraordinary condition, serves as a vital reservoir, supplying the flow needed to nourish the surrounding woodland vegetation.

●     Agricultural Infrastructure: A built chicken coop equipped with power and running water, alongside a broad clearing sheltered by the cool shade of a natural grove—the ideal setting for the creation of noble equestrian stables.

Private River Sanctuary

Summertime takes on a new dimension at the foot of the property. Two direct, private access points to the Genil River open the way to crystal-clear natural pools—a rare privilege offering absolute privacy where the noise of the outside world completely dissolves.

Located just 7 minutes from the artistic heart of Gaucín and 15 minutes from the whitewashed charm of Casares, this estate embodies the supreme balance between poetic seclusion and connection to the South’s most refined enclaves.

A legacy of land, water, and time ready for its next custodian.
