Description
Originally used as a wine press, this historic property of approximately 616m2, is estimated to have been built in the early 18th century, during a period when the European bourgeoisie, mainly English, Germans and also Madrileños, decided to invest in the thriving wine business in the province of Malaga. The estate was acquired by a famous doctor from Madrid, Dr. Urbano, who christened it "Lagar de lo Urbano", in honour of his surname.
At the end of the 19th century, the phylloxera plague devastated vineyards throughout the Mediterranean basin, forcing the owners to convert this old wine press into an oil mill, thus initiating successful oil production. During the rehabilitation carried out by the current owners and completed by a company specialised in heritage, an 18th century beam and quintal press was discovered, as well as the old wine cellar, constituting true heritage gems. In addition, the old stone oil mill has been restored and recovered.
Today, the property has extensive olive groves and a modern oil mill of approx 600m2, equipped with machinery in excellent condition and all the necessary permits for the production and sale of oil. Its oils, all organic, have been recognised worldwide and have received numerous international awards. In addition, the estate is a reference point for olive oil tourism in the province.
The main house offers the perfect balance of historic charm and modern comforts. Upon entering, there is a spacious living/dining room with a fireplace and a large window with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. From here, there is access to a landscaped terrace with private swimming pool and outdoor kitchen. The fully equipped and renovated kitchen offers an equally spacious and cosy space. Upstairs, you will find four bedrooms, all with air conditioning, and three bathrooms.
In addition to the main living area, the property has a separate flat that includes a bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen. Additional features include solar panels, pre-installation of radiators throughout the house and underfloor heating (only in the separate flat), offering comfort and energy efficiency.
