Finca/Country House for sale in Algeciras, Cádiz

7 bed 7 bath country home
Singular opportunity to purchase a unique property located at the tip of Southern Spain in the Campo de Gibraltar. This 7 bed, 7 bath home combines a Moorish, Andaluz style with the colonial features of 19th century Spain. Yet, it is very much of the 21st century – well connected logistically to North Africa by sea, Jerez and Gibraltar airports a short car ride away. Sevilla and Cadiz offer possible day trips or mini break destinations. Plus, the golf courses of Sotogrande and the kite surfing of Tarifa are but 20 minutes away.
Twin pillars of Hercules
This special bolthole is an ideal place to revitalise your energies and unleash your creativity whilst entertaining family and friends. Enjoy the atmosphere of this safe and inviting home. Nestled in Los Alcornocales Natural park with views that encompass the bay across to Africa and the twin pillars of Hercules. Rest assured the paperwork is impeccable. The finca is 2.6 hectares. Of which just less than half is categorised as urban residential use and the rest for agriculture. Importantly, there is a spring and a well for irrigation. The spring water would be suitable for drinking with a filtration system added. It is also an extremely cheap source for filling the large swimming pool and watering the plants and lawn. In addition, there is mains drinking water on tap.
Summer kitchen, pool and BBQ
As you’d expect, there’s a summer kitchen and barbecue area to entertain in style by the pool in those hot summer months. There is also a stunning loggia with a Cuban colonial influence.
Spacious living quarters
Inside the main house on the ground floor there is a spacious living area of study, sitting room and drawing room which optimises the space according to the season. You can afford this generosity in a property of over 500 m2. On this floor there is also a cloakroom and a charming bedroom. The ground floor is the heart of the home, with kitchen, breakfast area and formal dining room also on this level. The garage is located beneath this where there is also a bathroom, porch and cosy sitting room. Upstairs, on the top floor, are 6 bedrooms – 3 of them en-suite. The others share a large, luxury bathroom. Please refer to the floor plans for a concise overview. Naturally, there is air conditioning and heating throughout. There is also a 2 bed, 1 bath cottage at the entrance.
Location: Bay of Algeciras
This is a lovingly restored property that you really must see to appreciate all that it offers. These days it is less and less easy to find a residence of this calibre in the countryside, especially with so much of its land approved and designated for urban use. Located above the Bay of Algeciras, nicely to the west of an Industrial Park and around 10 minutes above Getares beach. It is fully legal with all paperwork up to date and a mortgage is available if that is of interest to you. IBI is approx. 3,600 EUR per annum.
