Finca/Country House for sale in La Zarza, Jumilla, Murcia

This charming six-bedroom, two-bathroom country house is situated in the peaceful Peña de la Zafra valley in Fortuna, Murcia, enjoying an elevated countryside setting with lovely views across the surrounding landscape.

The property offers generous accommodation, plenty of outdoor space and approximately 10,340 m² of land in total, divided between the main property and three additional nearby plots.

Interior

Entering the house, immediately to the left is a room currently being used as a walk-in wardrobe, complete with its own en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. This room was previously used as a bedroom and could easily be converted back if required.

To the right of the entrance, a wide double doorway opens into the spacious living and dining room, which features a log burner in the corner and plenty of natural light. This room can also be accessed from the opposite end of the hallway, creating a practical flow through the ground floor.

The central hallway leads to a large primary bedroom, a further bedroom currently being used as an office, and another double bedroom.

At the end of the hallway, a couple of steps lead down into the recently installed modern kitchen. Finished with attractive wooden cabinetry, generous worktop and storage space and a large American-style fridge-freezer, the kitchen has been completely updated and offers a fresh, contemporary feel.

Adjoining the kitchen is the second bathroom, also fitted with a walk-in shower, followed by one of the most characterful areas of the house. This traditional room was originally used as the old Spanish kitchen and retains its large original fireplace, once used for preparing traditional dishes such as paella and gachamiga. The room also has access to a useful pantry, as well as an exterior door leading directly back out to the front of the property.

From here, another doorway leads to the staircase taking you to the first floor, where there are two additional rooms suitable as bedrooms, along with access to a private roof terrace enjoying attractive views across the countryside and the property's land.

The ground floor of the house has been rewired with new electrics, and new windows have also been installed throughout the ground floor. There is also a hot and cold air-conditioning unit positioned near the main entrance.

Exterior

Immediately surrounding the house are two adjoining plots totalling approximately 4,586 m². The land is arranged over several levels and is planted with a variety of established fruit and agricultural trees, including olive and almond trees, with further space available for cultivation.

There is plenty of patio and outdoor living space around the house. A separate outbuilding is currently used as a utility room, with an adjoining covered seating and dining area providing an ideal place for outdoor meals, summer barbecues and relaxing in the shade.

Running down the side of the house is the driveway, where there is also a large covered carport, providing convenient sheltered parking.

The property further benefits from two garages. The larger is currently used as a workshop and storage area, while the second provides additional vehicle and storage space. Both are large enough to accommodate a car.

At the lower part of the property is an older corral and animal enclosure, historically used for keeping chickens and other livestock.

There is also a water deposit supplied from a natural well via a pump, with the stored water used for irrigating the trees and cultivated areas of the property.

In addition to the land immediately surrounding the house, the sale includes three further plots located approximately 200 metres away, with a combined area of approximately 5,754 m². These plots are planted mainly with olive and almond trees.
