Cortijo El Matuloso is an Andalusian hacienda dating back to 1900, set in the heart of a 2471 acre sporting estate near the city of Huelva in the southwest corner of Spain.
Updated in 2001 under the direction of the Seville architect Rafael Manzano Martos, the estate is being sold completely furnished and equipped with agricultural equipment, including 5 pick up jeeps, 3 luxury jeeps, 3 offload motors, 1 quad, 1 water skiing boat, 1 12-person boat for group trips, 2 kayaks, 6 bicycles, and 1 laser sailing boat.
Situated on a hilltop with stunning views out over the mountains and the lake, the property presents a unique opportunity to own a well organized, turnkey estate on the “Secret Coast” of Spain.
The hacienda offers 32,300 square feet of interior space which can accommodate 30 guests in 15 bedrooms, situated around a central Andalusian courtyard. Equipped with a wine cellar, professional kitchen, and a large dining hall for up to 40, there is also an outdoor BBQ area by the covered dining terrace.
Separate accommodation for staff provides an additional 10 bedrooms. The main residence is separated from the guest area in the hacienda, and features 3 luxury owners suites with covered terraces overlooking the patio and pool area, with a 50 foot swimming pool with pool house.
Mirador towers offer views across the entire estate, used primarily as a hunting estate with a focus on big game shooting, namely deer, wild boar and mouflon. Small game hunting (partridge, duck, hare, rabbit, dove, pigeon) can be organized with neighbouring estates.
The finca estate is completely fenced in and borders a large reservoir which is used primarily to provide water to the animals, but also provides access to water sports and fishing, used privately by the adjoining fincas.
The property also has an additional 5 lakes, and offers over 60 km of trails and several stone ‘corrales’, ideal for horseback riding, mountain biking, and other sports.
370 acres of the estate yield approximately 50% of the wheat needed for the animals’ feed (and provide a €20,000 subsidy), and there are several garages, storage buildings and a barn.
A 30 minute drive to the beach, a 1-hour drive to Faro Airport in Portugal, and slightly over one hour to Seville airport.
