CORTIJO LA PEÑA:
Hidden gems can still be found here and there in this beautiful valley. Incredibly beautiful, located in the Sierra Nevada Natural Park with 360-degree views. You can even see the Mediterranean Sea!
The cortijo, which previously belonged to a Buddhist community, is now used by our friends as a beautiful rural house after a major renovation. This cortijo is situated on a private plot of no less than 100,000 m2.
All year round, it is a mosaic of colors due to the diversity of plants and trees, including 200 almond trees and 60 century-old olive trees. A private spring provides a plentiful supply of drinking water. Additionally, there is an 80,000-liter reservoir for irrigation.
The very spacious living room includes: - A fully equipped kitchen - A wood stove - A large cool cupboard
Adjacent are two bedrooms, each with a shower, washing facilities, and a private bathroom.
A staircase leads to the guest house above, featuring: - Central kitchen - Dining room - Wood stove
Next to it are three double rooms, each with its own shower, sink, and toilet. The guest house also has its own entrance and a covered terrace.
On the property are two beautiful cabins from the time of the Buddhist community, which can also serve as a separate bedroom.
Everything is off-grid. Twelve solar panels combined with a large storage battery provide more than enough electricity. This battery was purchased new in January 2019, so you can use energy worry-free for at least another ten years.
Additionally, eight panels supply hot water through a closed circuit, ensuring hot water directly at every tap.
Besides the two wood stoves, almost all rooms have underfloor heating. During occasional cloudy periods, this is supplemented by the existing oil heater and generator.
Therefore, you have no monthly energy bills.
A large terrace with a pool offers a fantastic view over the valley and the sea. On clear days, you can even see Africa.
Besides the spacious parking area with shaded roof for two cars, there is a barn with a workshop room.
The cortijo is located at an altitude of 1060 m in the Sierra Nevada Natural Park and is surrounded by beauty. You can regularly admire the animals living in the park up close, especially the mountain goats.
You have no immediate neighbors, so you enjoy complete privacy.
You can reach the village of Mondújar-Lecrín in 15 minutes. There you will find a wide range of supermarkets, restaurants, gas stations, banks, and local shops. From there, you can reach Granada in just 30 minutes via the highway. Here you will find the famous Alhambra and the large ski area. If you head south from Mondújar, you will be at the Mediterranean Sea in half an hour. The white villages of the Alpujarra are also reachable within 30 minutes.
You can enjoy pleasant walks from home. The famous GR7 hiking trail is just a few hundred meters from the cortijo.
In summary, this fantastic location offers all possibilities.
This dream place can be used as a home with more than enough rooms for family, friends, and acquaintances or as tourist accommodation, which you can rent out entirely or partially.
This property offers excellent opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, cultural excursions, bird watching, and also, for example, survival training or yoga.
