About this villa.

Historic 18th-century olive oil mill with a large courtyard and garden in the historic centre of Arcos de la Frontera. A truly unique historic property offering more than 1,000 m² of built area and exceptional tourism potential. In the very heart of Arcos de la Frontera, one of Andalusia’s most iconic white villages, stands this extraordinary property: a former 18th-century Andalusian olive oil mill, historically linked to the Chapter of Seville Cathedral. A property filled with character and history, featuring architectural details that are increasingly rare to find today. The estate retains numerous original elements that reflect its heritage, including crenellated towers, an imposing entrance with a heraldic coat of arms, traditional walls, tiled roofs, substantial timber structures and a spectacular Andalusian courtyard of approximately 400 m², around which much of the property is arranged. The property offers more than 1,000 m² of built area, a generous urban plot and an extraordinary rear garden facing towards the river, with partial views of the Peña de Arcos. Inside, there are three independent apartments, together with several impressive large-scale spaces featuring timber ceilings and heights ranging from approximately 6.5 to 7.2 metres. The current configuration provides numerous possibilities for redistribution and future use. The property currently has residential use, but it is particularly attractive from an investment perspective: according to the urban planning information provided, there is the possibility of applying for a change of use to tourism, opening the door to the development of a truly distinctive hospitality project. Given its architecture, size and character, the property is particularly well suited to a charming boutique hotel, unique tourist accommodation, rural hotel or hospitality establishment, wedding and celebration venue, private events space, exceptional private residence, or cultural or artistic project. The magnificent central courtyard, exceptionally high interior spaces and garden provide an outstanding setting in which to create a destination with its own distinctive identity, making the most of precisely what makes this property so special: its history and architecture. A privileged location within the town centre of Arcos de la Frontera, the property combines the peace and privacy of a substantial historic estate with the convenience of having all services close at hand. It also benefits from excellent connections, approximately 27 minutes from Jerez Airport and around one hour from Seville Airport, close to the Jerez Circuit, the Costa de la Luz, Lake Arcos and nearby golf courses. The property is included within the protected heritage documentation for the Molino de los Canónigos, with a B1 Classification Level and Level III Archaeological Protection; consequently, any future works or alterations must comply with the applicable heritage and urban planning regulations.
