Tranquil Cortijo with Large Terraces near Güéjar Sierra Set in a peaceful valley planted with fruit trees and enjoying clear views towards the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, this spacious cortijo offers privacy and natural beauty while remaining close to amenities. Two restaurants are within a ten-minute walk, and the attractive mountain town of Güéjar Sierra is approximately 25 minutes on foot or 8 minutes by car. The nearby reservoir formed by the damming of the Río Genil provides additional leisure opportunities, while the historic centre of Granada and its airport are around 20 minutes away by easy drive.   House & Layout The property offers approximately 400 m² built area, of which around 200 m² is interior living space. The remaining 200 m² comprises: A substantial 100 m² terrace with panoramic views A further 100 m² covered area beneath the terrace Part of the upper terrace could be enclosed with glass to create an additional lounge or winter sitting room. At lower level there is also a walled area, well suited for conversion into a private walled garden. The accommodation is arranged over two levels: Upper level: Two bedrooms Bathroom Lounge with staircase leading down Lower level: Spacious open-plan lounge and kitchen Bathroom Large store room (part of which could serve as an additional bedroom) Third bathroom The property has been recently renovated and requires only the installation of stoves upstairs and downstairs to complete the heating system.   Land & Water The land is mostly flat and arranged over two terraces, planted with cherry trees, chestnuts, figs, olives, persimmon and other fruit varieties. Mains electricity and water are connected. The property benefits from abundant irrigation water, ensuring the land remains green throughout the year. There are currently two large water tanks serving the house and a much larger one across the track. Following completion of a sale, the main storage for the larger finca will transfer across the track, allowing one of the existing tanks to be removed to create additional garden space. Access is via an asphalted track with very little traffic, as it runs parallel to the main road.   Güéjar Sierra & Surroundings Güéjar Sierra is a well-regarded mountain village known for its outdoor lifestyle and strong sense of community. The town offers supermarkets, cafés, traditional restaurants, a health centre and local shops, making it practical for year-round living. It is particularly popular with walkers, cyclists and nature enthusiasts, thanks to its direct access to Sierra Nevada trails, river routes and reservoir activities such as kayaking and fishing. In winter, the Sierra Nevada ski resort is within easy reach, while in summer the cooler mountain climate provides welcome relief from the heat of the city. The combination of mountain scenery, proximity to Granada and access to the coast makes this area one of the most attractive year-round residential locations in the province.
