Finca/Country House for sale in Capileira, Granada

You won’t get here by car. Forget parking, forget rolling up with the trunk full of groceries. From the nearest spot to leave your vehicle, you walk. Fifteen minutes, uphill, with whatever you carry. Materials, tools, supplies—everything gets brought in by hand or mule. If you’re already thinking too much hassle, this property is not for you.

But if you’ve ever dreamed of silence so pure it makes your ears ring, land that drinks straight from mountain streams, and a traditional cortijo you can rebuild from scratch into exactly what you want—then keep reading. Because this might be the best amount you’ll ever spend.

What’s Here

12,000 m2 of terraced land. Eight levels, once farmed, still fertile, ready again for olives, fruit trees, vegetables, or full-on permaculture. Or leave it wild and enjoy the view.

140 m2 cortijo (traditional farmhouse). At present: Uninhabitable. Needs to be rebuilt: roof, interiors, utilities. But: the upper part of the building could be restored first, giving you a base while you tackle the rest. All the roofs have been replaced recently and some of the walls are rebuilt.

Water: Two natural irrigation channels cross the property. Four water tanks plus a shared deposit guarantee supply. For anyone serious about self-sufficiency, this is gold.

Views: Panoramic across the Poqueira Valley, and straight to Mulhacén, the highest peak in mainland Spain.

What’s Not Here

No road access. No quick comforts. No shortcuts.

No turnkey solution: this is a project. You’ll need time, work, and grit.

The Facts That Matter

Access: By foot only. 15 minutes from the nearest parking point.

Condition: Full renovation needed. Architect’s feasibility report available.

Extras: An old threshing floor, authentic traces of traditional Alpujarran life.

The Price

€39,000
A bargain if you understand what you’re getting. Too expensive if you just want "easy."

This is not a home yet. It’s a challenge. But it’s the kind of challenge that rewards the right buyer with something priceless: peace, independence, and a foothold in Sierra Nevada most people will never have.
