Cástaras, Andalusia, Address available on request

This is a great opportunity to own a large cortijo with the possiblilty to be self sufficient. &Nbsp The  110m² three bedroom cortijo is situated in the Castaras area not far from the village of Nieles. Access is via a short, mainly concrete track. The property is set in approximately 7000m² of land that is mostly terraced and has pipework installed for irrigation. This area is known locally for the abundance of water and the property has water rights. Due to the amount of water available and the irrigation system in place, there are over 50 olive trees in full fruit and vines which produce approximately 100 bottles of wine per year. &Nbsp The area immediately surrounding the cortijo is fully fenced so it is safe for children and pets. To the front of the cortijo is a large partly shaded terrace, ideal for entertaining. The entrance leads into a large open plan kitchen/dining/living room. The large Alpujarran style kitchen would benefit from a little updating. Currently there are some fitted units, a gas hob and double stainless sink. &Nbsp The living/dining area has ample room for a large table and chairs as well as comfortable sofas. To one wall is a large open fireplace. &Nbsp Off this area is an open internal hall, giving access to three generous double bedrooms, a family bathroom with tiled shower and another room currently used as a storeroom. This could possibly be used as a fourth bedroom. &Nbsp To the side of the property is an insulated room currently used as a bodega, storeroom for gardening equipment and houses the solar controls. &Nbsp As mentioned before the irrigated terraced land, in good condition, has a variety of fruit trees, vines, olives and almonds.    There is also the possibility to buy extra land from the owners family. &Nbsp If you dont know this area well, why not take a look at our exposure guide on the Alpujarras in the Area Guide section above (next to Overview).
