Finca/Country House for sale in Arenas del Rey, Granada

Finca El Candelar combines 25 hectares of countryside with far-reaching views towards beautiful Lake Bermejales and surrounding mountains in Arenas del Rey, Granada. Spread across three plots, this extensive estate brings together established cultivation, welcoming outdoor spaces and several buildings in a beautiful rural setting.

The land includes approximately 4,000 irrigated almond trees and 200 pistachio trees. A legal well with an annual water allowance of 6,000 m³, producing around 3 litres per second, and a water storage reservoir holding around three million litres, support the agricultural side of the property. Solar panels complete its practical facilities.

The buildings are divided into two sections:

At the very top of the estate, furthest from the lakeside, and with magnificent, sweeping views, is a house currently consisting of a covered porch, living room with large fireplace, small kitchen area and a bathroom (total of around 3.5 x 6m plus a beautiful covered outdoor area). There is a large covered parking area next to the house too. It is possible to seek permission to extend the house and register it (currently unregistered) due to the size of the plot.

At the other extreme of the estate, close to the lakeside, a timber building has a covered porch, living area and kitchen (around 40m2), while the separate building in the form of a fixed mobile home offers a living space that could be used as a temporary home while building work is taking place, and could be renovated perhaps for tourism. The mobile home provides three small bedrooms, a living area, kitchen and bathroom.

There is plenty of space to enjoy life outdoors, from shaded terraces and a vine-covered dining area to a bread oven and built-in barbecue. This area would be perfect for summer rentals and there is also potential for a small camping business.

With its almond and pistachio trees, generous grounds and inviting places to enjoy and take in the scenery, Finca El Candelar offers an appealing combination of agriculture and natural, country life in Granada.
