Tucked away in the peaceful hills of Almegíjar, in the heart of the Alpujarras, this 77,200 m² estate is a rare opportunity to own a piece of authentic Andalusian countryside—where nature, history, and breathtaking views converge. The property comprises two traditional cortijos set among almond groves and fruit trees. The first, a 120 m² single-storey home with an attached 38 m² garage, is currently habitable, offering a comfortable space to live while undertaking renovations. Its layout includes a welcoming front porch, a spacious living-dining area with an open fireplace, a open-plan kitchen, four bedrooms, and a bathroom with a bathtub—ideal for anyone looking to begin enjoying the property immediately while restoring it at their own pace. Just a few steps away, the second cortijo spans 103 m² over two floors. Though in need of renovation, it offers six rooms and a flexible footprint ready to be reimagined into additional living space, guest accommodation, or even a creative retreat. The land itself is planted predominantly with almond trees, along with a rich variety of fruit trees—persimmon, plum, flat peach, fig, and apple—creating a vibrant, productive landscape that changes with the seasons. What truly sets this property apart are its sweeping panoramic views across the Sierra Nevada and the surrounding white villages—an ever-changing canvas of light, sky, and mountain that never fails to inspire. The estate is fully off-grid, with solar electricity, potable mains water, a natural spring, and a traditional alberca (water reservoir) for storage, making it well-suited for sustainable living. Despite its tranquil setting, the Mediterranean coast is just 30 minutes away—offering the best of both worlds: mountain serenity and easy access to the sea. Whether you’re looking for a restoration project, a self-sufficient rural home, or a base for a creative or eco-tourism venture, this property offers unmatched potential in one of southern Spain’s most enchanting regions.
