Nestled in the breathtaking of the Las Alpujarras countryside, just a short 15-minute walk from the charming spa town of Lanjarón, this traditional cortijo offers an exceptional opportunity to create a beautiful home surrounded by nature, peace, and stunning mountain scenery. The property boasts 234 m² built over two floors and enjoys excellent access, combining the tranquillity of rural living with the convenience of being close to the village. Thanks to its south-facing orientation, the cortijo enjoys sunshine for most of the day, filling the house and terraces with natural light throughout the seasons. The upper floor, located at street level, is the heart of the home. It features a spacious living and dining area with exposed wooden beams, a fireplace, and a balcony overlooking the Sierra. The open-plan kitchen, connected to the living room through a breakfast bar, creates a warm and sociable atmosphere. This floor also offers three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a sunny terrace with lovely views across the surrounding countryside. On the lower floor, there is a self-contained studio with its own bathroom, as well as a large garage currently used for storage. This generous space offers excellent potential for renovation and could easily be incorporated into the main house to create additional living accommodation, guest rooms, or a workshop. The cortijo is connected to mains electricity, internet, and benefits from diesel-fired central heating, making it comfortable throughout the year. The land (4.000 m2) is planted with a wonderful variety of mature fruit and nut trees, including apple, pear, pomegranate, feijoa, orange, lemon, loquat, olive, almond, grapevines, blackberries, and more, creating a productive and picturesque Mediterranean garden. The finca is irrigated with permanent spring water and includes a traditional alberca used for water storage, as well as two additional water tanks. The property also has a septic tank system in place. With a few improvements and personal touches, this charming cortijo has the potential to become a truly wonderful permanent home, holiday retreat, or countryside escape in one of Andalucía’s most sought-after natural settings.
