Finca/Country House for sale in Telde, Gran Canaria

A unique, detached house from a former large estate (with an imposing character and charm) in a beautiful location on Gran Canaria

Chalet/Antique house (1928)/estate for sale between Telde and Valsequillo in the beautiful Valle de San Roque valley on Gran Canaria. Wonderfully situated, with distant sea views; in clear weather, the neighboring islands of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura can be seen, as well as views extending up into the mountains to an altitude of 1,400 meters. It is located in the island’s best climate zone—not as hot as the south and not as cold and rainy as the north of the island.

Perfectly and very peacefully situated at approximately 300 meters above sea level, yet not too far from shopping facilities: by car, you can reach the large town of Telde in 10–15 minutes and the capital, Las Palmas, in 30 minutes. Living area of approximately 200 m² plus approximately 20 m² of cellar space (wine cellar, dry, with 80 cm thick walls). The house is very solidly and robustly built, with thick walls designed to last forever according to traditional construction methods and adapted to the local climate.

Adjacent to the house is the orchard with mangoes, mangos, bananas, lemons, mandarins, oranges, pomegranates and avocados. It covers approximately 1,000 m², leaving room for vegetables if desired. The house offers 3 terraces with different views and varying periods of sun and shade, plus a 150 m² roof terrace. The total plot size is 1,350 m².

The architectural style is that of a former manor house or large estate, with a skylight in the large dining room and a kind of conservatory in the entrance area, which also invites you to dine or enjoy a coffee. With a total of 10 rooms and an excellent layout, the house offers special and individual design possibilities. A second bathroom could be installed relatively easily if desired, as could a fireplace for an additional wood-burning stove (open fireplace) in the large dining room and also in the kitchen, should you wish to live more self-sufficiently. Whether antique, rustic or modern, anything is possible here.

The estate also has water rights, ensuring irrigation water. The water supply for the house and the electricity (9.3 kW) are connected to the public grid and available in sufficient quantities, so that several appliances can be operated simultaneously without tripping the fuse. Telephone, internet and a satellite TV system with a dish on the roof, receiving German and English channels, are available. Unfortunately, the photographs can convey the true character and atmosphere of the house and property only to a very limited extent, which is why I recommend viewing it in person. Asking price subject to negotiation: 595,000 euros. No estate agent fees.
