Instant Self-Sufficient Lifestyle for sale!
A beautiful, completely renovated off-grid cortijo, set in 1 hectare of lush, abundant woodland in the beautiful Alpujarra mountains and just an 8 minutes walk along an easy footpath from the village of Atalbeitar.
Serene and quiet and because there is no car access ( and there probably never will be) it will always be a haven of peace and tranquility, ideal for those who want to live undisturbed in a natural wonderland but still live close enough to civilisation to stock up on creature comforts.
This lovely cortijo has 4 /5 bedrooms, a bathroom, large living/dining/kitchen area with a pantry and secure external room. New Swiss built solar pv system and wind turbine for electrics, vacuum tube array for hot water. Heated with wood burners with potential to connect to radiators and under floor heating (pipes in place). Sweet chestnut beams, beautiful woodwork and tiled/stucco floors throughout. House is 140m, but registered as 180, so potential to extend without seeking further permission.
The cortijo has a lovely large garden area with the most fabulous views down the valley and has one hectare of mixed woodland split over 7 terraces, providing food, firewood and welcome shade in the summer. 30 odd walnut trees and various others including; almonds, olives, cherries, apples, pears, plums, pomegranates, persimmon, loquat, quince, mulberries, peaches and more. Blackcurrants, red currants, white currants, blackberries, raspberries and rhubarb, not to mention the established veggie patches and seasonal wild food.... a true forest garden.
There´s also a 30m solid stable set in woodland ideal for the mule transport and with potential to convert to human accommodation instead. There´s also a chicken coop and rabbit enclosure.
Absolutely abundant FREE water with 24/7 rights to the acequia , the land stays green all year thanks to the amount of water it has access too and there are sprinklers in place on all of the terraces. There´s also a large alberca that can be used for swimming.
Drinking water is from a delicious private spring that runs around 15 - 20 litres/minute ALL YEAR, a few metres from the house but also piped into the kitchen.
All this in a secluded car-free valley with views towards Ferreirola and several local footpaths (and the GR7) accessible from the front door.
Fully legal with escritura.
