Alpujarras: carefully renovated countryside house for sale in Andalucia

House on the Sierra Nevada south side, on a big plot of land, with garage and orchard

Carefully renovated countryside house for sale on the Sierra Nevada south side in Andalucia, one hour drive away from the Mediterranean. This typically Alpujarras style countryside house is located away from prying eyes on a big plot of land in a discreet and quiet area, somewhat off the village, but only ten minutes walk away, accessible via a track road in good condition.

The house is surrounded by a lush garden with some nice bougainvillea, as well as by an orchard planted with, among others species, olive, pomegranate, walnut, fig, lemon, orange, apple, pear, peach, nectarine, apricot, Sharon fruit and almond plus other shrubs and plants. The property also includes a large garage, and since there is no water scarcity in the Sierra Nevada, adding a swimming pool of course is possible.

Indoors, this carefully renovated countryside house is parted in two floors. In the ground floor, you will find a sitting room with wood-burner (might be converted into a fireplace), beside a lovely kitchen with its beams and wooden units. A bathroom and a bedroom with built-in cupboards complete this level. A staircase with pretty hand-painted mosaic tiles brings us to the first floor.

Upstairs, you will have two more bedrooms, another shower room and an additional sitting-room, equally with wood burner, opening onto a broad terrace, partly shaded by a walnut tree along the house, with a gorgeous view over the garden, the orchard and the valley. Throughout the house, the typical Alpujarras architecture, inherited from the long Mauresque presence, has been retained, such as the rough-hewn wood beam ceiling.

This countryside house has been very carefully renovated, with extra insulation chambers on the walls plus an extra insulation roof over the existing roof. The windows come with double insulating glazing, interior shutters and protection bars. Electricity mains are connected, as well as the municipal water network. Additionally, the house is supplied many hours per week with agricultural water for the purpose of watering the garden and orchard, from two different sources. The warm water is prepared through a three-way hot water heating system with solar, gas and electricity.

The careful renovation gives the house a quality level clearly above the usual standard of most properties in the area.

This south facing house is in slightly dominant location. Facing it, you will enjoy the Alpujarras landscape with the village seen to the rear in the foreground. When the evening comes, amidst the nightingales song, you will enjoy sipping a glass on one of the many roofed or open air terraces around the house, and while the shade slowly extends below you, the evening breeze will bring you the time at the sound of a bell sweeping through the night gradually extending over the valley.

This carefully renovated, discreetly located Alpujarras countryside house, ready to move into (you will just have to lay your luggage down), for sale on a big plot of land in Andalucia, with garage and orchard, is offered unfurnished. The gardening tools and a small tractor may be acquired separately.
