Finca/Country House for sale in Femes, Yaiza, Lanzarote

Charming, detached country house built in 1984, located in the authentic village of Femes with stunning mountain and country views. It is lovely example of a rural property built at that time combining a more modern aesthetic with traditional architectural features.

The property is divided into two areas with the house built on an urban plot of 282m2 and this is surrounded by the rural, agricultural plot which covers around 8000m2. Access is via a long sweeping driveway from the road and the property is set in an elevated position in the hillside towards the back of this enormous plot. The driveway leads to parking areas to the front, to one side (where the garage and workshop are located) and then around the other side of the property to the rear aspect where there is a large parking area for numerous vehicles.

The main house has a constructed area of​​ 210 square meters. The semi-basement has an area of ​​approximately 36 square meters and is used as a very spacious garage (with space for 2 or 3 cars). The ground floor is distributed into 3 bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious double height atrium space, a kitchen-dining room, a living room with a log burning stove and a cosy second sitting room with doors opening onto a side terrace with magnificent views. An exterior staircase leads to an upstairs room of 8 square meters with a WC and handbasin. This room currently is used as a small gym but could be used as a fourth bedroom. A door leads out onto a massive roof terrace with panoramic country and mountain views. There is a Canarian style seated area for outside entertaining or watching the beautiful evening sunsets.

There are 2 entrances to the main property: the rather grand front entrance with its stately palm trees and steps leading to the front door and terraces or, alternatively, the driveway sweeps around to the rear where there is a large parking area and more practical access to the house without steps. Entering via the main front door you come into the sitting room with the log burning stove. To the right is a hallway leading to a lovely light-filled bedroom and a patio door opening onto a side terrace, a fully tiled family bathroom with walk-in shower and the second sitting room. There is a door leading to a stairwell to access the lower-level garage.

The rear door leads out to separate utility room and the lava stone pathways surrounding the property, this is also where the exterior stairs to the upper level are found.

A lava stone pathway also leads to the later addition of a cosy, independent stone cottage. The cottage has 1 bedroom, 2 shower rooms and an open plan sitting, dining and kitchen area. It has a covered terrace for dining outside a BBQ area and its own gardens.

There are various gardens and terraces to enjoy and a workshop located beside the garage. The plot measures approximately 8000 square meters, and the undeveloped area is designated for or agricultural use. A 180-cubic-meter aljibe (water tank) is also located on the plot.
