General
This is a rare chance to purchase a beautiful three bedroom two bathroom house set in a fenced plot of almost a hectare with spectacular views, and that is only 10 minutes to the nearest town. It’s a super tranquil spot that is ideal for anyone who wants to get away from town life but still be close to a town with all amenities.

House
This is a stylish property with stone clad exterior in the style of northern Spain and the islands. This type of stone means that there’s very little maintenance and no need to paint every few years which is an issue with white houses. Throughout the house you have high full wood ceilings with wood beams. You enter straight into the open plan sitting room/dining room/kitchen. There’s a wood burning stove as well as radiators which are run off a pellet burner. The kitchen is stylish and fully equipped; inbuilt oven, microwave, dishwasher, lots of cupboards and quality worktops, in the area that leads to the pellet stove is shelving for your pantry and the washing machine is here. There’s a downstairs bedroom and bathroom, this bathroom has a bath. The full height staircase leads to three further bedrooms and a shower room. One of the bedrooms is currently being used as a dressing room and the principal bedroom has a lovely balcony with room for a table and chairs and views towards the town.

Exterior
Access to the property is via 1km of track, parts of which are concreted and parts which are natural and some parts are inclined. An electronic gate opens to a concreted track up to the house and large 2 car garage. The garage also has an electronic door. There is some pretty planting around the house and with nearly a hectare of fenced land there is a little of everything; chicken coups, allotment, beehives, fruit trees, olive trees, almond trees, space to put two wooden houses for rental, a gorgeous vine covered tunnel to a tree lined grove ideal for shade on the hottest days. This is an idyllic spot. There are two wells to supply the house, pool and land.

Pool
The pool is approx. 8m x 3m and is a ‘beach’ style of design. This means there are not steps and at the shallow end is a gently sloping ‘beach’ area which is a safe place for children to play or for adults to sit in the water. The pool surround is artificial grass rather than tiled terracing. Next to the pool is a pergola with table and chairs and views towards Alcala.

Additional
Granada city is only 55 minutes and Malaga airport an hour and 45 minutes. This is a well built property in excellent condition, with double glazed windows throughout, persianas and high quality hard wood internal doors. There’s good access to towns such as Montefrio, Cordoba, Jaen, and Granada, so it’s a great location if you want to explore the area and use the property for tourism. The house is designed in a way that in summer it keeps cool without the need for air conditioning.
