Finca/Country House for sale in Cáñar, Granada

Cortijo Escondrijo – Nature, technology and exclusivity

In the heart of the Alpujarra, within the municipality of Cáñar and with easy access from Lanjarón, lies Cortijo Escondrijo, an exceptional country estate of approximately 4 hectares combining privacy, nature and an unusually high level of comfort for a rural property. The property enjoys formidable views stretching towards the Mediterranean, with glimpses of the Rif Mountains of Morocco visible on clear winter days.

The estate offers 229 m² of accommodation, beautifully designed outdoor spaces, a high-quality swimming pool, hot tub with wood burner and a comprehensive infrastructure created for enjoying a self-sufficient lifestyle without giving up the comforts of a modern home.

The main house comprises three spacious bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom, and a bright living-dining room with large windows that fill the space with natural light and frame the wonderful surrounding views. The exceptionally large, fully equipped kitchen is one of the principal living areas, ideal for everyday life and for entertaining family and friends.

Outside, the property is designed for enjoying life in the open air throughout the year. There is a shaded terrace, hot tub, high-quality swimming pool, barbecue area and parking. The estate also includes storage buildings for tools and agricultural equipment, supporting its practical and productive character.

One of Cortijo Escondrijo’s most impressive features is its advanced home automation system. The house has underfloor heating powered by a boiler, which can be controlled remotely via Wi-Fi, together with its own solar generation system comprising two inverters and lithium batteries. This installation provides a high degree of energy independence, even when several appliances are being used simultaneously.

The property also benefits from a stable broadband internet connection, making it possible to work from home, hold video calls or enjoy streaming services without limitations. It is an especially appealing combination for those wishing to live surrounded by nature while remaining connected to the outside world.

Water is another major asset. The estate has its own spring with a continual year-round flow, which has never run dry, together with additional water rights through the local irrigation community. The water is filtered and softened for use in the house and is also distributed through an automated irrigation system serving the vegetable garden, fruit trees and gardens. Several large-capacity water tanks are positioned around the estate to ensure efficient management of this valuable resource.

Cortijo Escondrijo is not simply a home, but also a small working agricultural holding. The land includes approximately 80 olive trees, which produced more than 240 litres of its own olive oil in the last harvest, around 20 almond trees and a wide variety of fruit trees, including cherry, pear, quince, fig, apple, grape, mulberry and greengage plum.

The vegetable garden consists of twelve irrigated vegetable garden beds where vegetables and established asparagus plants are grown. Firewood for the fireplace can also be obtained from the estate’s own olive trees and holm oaks, further strengthening the property’s self-sufficient character.

Next to the access track is a large ruin for which a project has already been prepared and submitted to the Cáñar Town Hall, proposing its transformation into a boutique-style tourist accommodation. This offers an interesting opportunity to develop an independent project, create additional income or increase the estate’s long-term potential, subject to the relevant permissions.

The land surrounding this building is relatively level and has easy access to water, making it particularly suitable for those considering keeping horses or other livestock.

The property is accessed via a virtually private track, in a peaceful setting offering a high degree of privacy. It is sold furnished and equipped, including garden machinery, outdoor furniture and appliances, allowing the new owners to begin enjoying it immediately.

Cortijo Escondrijo is a truly distinctive property for those looking for more than just a home: a high-quality retreat in nature, with smart technology, its own resources, agricultural production, exceptional outdoor spaces and exciting future possibilities.
