Finca/Country House for sale in Jayena, Granada

A lovely, very simple country house on one level, on a totally flat plot of highly productive land, within walking distance of the lovely country village of Jayena (just under 2 Kms).

Situated in the delightful countryside of Western Granada province, in one of the most stunning landscapes in the province, this lovely little country house is ideal as a country home for anyone wishing to relocate to a much more country area. The climate here is one of four seasons but the sun is almost always shining!

The plot, consisting of 332m2 of totally flat land, is highly fertile, and is hence covered by a net greenhouse material, to grow hot-house crops such as tomatoes, green peppers, or whatever one wishes to grow. The greenhouse can be rented to local farmers or could be partly or entirely removed, depending on what the new owner wishes. The land will grow almost anything suitable to this climate and can offer an income to any new owner. Apart from the greenhouse area, there is a garden to the front of the house, which is perfect for recreational use.

The building consists of two bedrooms, one bathroom and a large, open plan kitchen/dining/living room, with a traditional, large open fireplace for the winter. However, adjoining on one side is a large garage/workshop that might be ideal for extension of the house. This area is around 9 x 5m, with garage doors and a pedestrian door to the front, and a door to the rear. The rear door leads out onto a small rear patio, and from here, steps lead up to a roof terrace with lovely views over the ‘vega’ valley, and out the mountains beyond.

A passage to the side of the house leads to the rear, where there is an additional store room (5 x 4m) where all the irrigation equipment is kept for the production of crops in the greenhouse area.

This delightful house could become a happy home for a couple maybe looking to retire (the greenhouse can be let), or even young family wishing to have a complete change of lifestyle, maybe working from home, and also growing kitchen garden crops for profit, and also for domestic use.

The property has mains electricity and irrigation water for use both in the house and on the land. It also has a huge water storage deposit which takes up the entire footprint of the house and is located under the house.

About the location: with Jayena, a lively little country town, just around the corner, making friends is easy. Here are plenty of little shops and bars and restaurants. Within a 3 minute drive is the village of Fornes, and the historic and fascinating town of Alhama de Granada is within around a 30 minute drive. Granada is the nearest city (50 mins) and the coast is around 1 hour away. The countryside is perfect for hiking and cycling, with beautiful national parkland within easy access.
