Jimena D L F Detached 3 bed 2 bath & pool

October 16, 2020

Currently Rented until April 2023

Jimena D L F Detached 3 bed 2 bath.

This delightful two floor property is set on a plot of land of some 1,200 – 1,400 m2 – exact size to be confirmed. The front door leads to a charming sitting room with fireplace. The kitchen is also in a rustic style with great views looking out onto the pool and garden. The bedrooms, 2 doubles and a single, are upstairs, along with the second shower room. Double Glazing throughout and air conditioning in some rooms. On the ground floor, leading off from the kitchen, is a dining room and leading out into the garden, a laundry area. The downstairs bathroom is a walk in shower situated off from the dining area. The house and garden offer a lot of potential. Located so near to the river and being a detached property, this quiet area is ideal for families.

Urban Property with Title Deeds

One of the garages is currently an outhouse divided into stable and storage – the stable is used to home the owners’ pet Shetland Pony, Lola, but, equally, this feature could be converted to a hen coop or reformed in some way. It faces out towards the hills of Jimena and although not really suitable as a stable for a full sized pony or horse, is a wonderful extra addition with thick brick walls. The other part of this stone building is used as a workshop and there is electricity connected.

The town hall has expanded the parameters of urban land and now almost the whole plot of land is included as urban. The stable and the other side, however, is not. This means that whilst you could build up to the stable, you could not convert the current building into something for residential use.

Family Home with Pool and 2 garages.

Built late 1990’s, in a rustic style, this 3 bed 2 bath has the rare added bonuses of a wonderful swimming pool and 2 separate garages, – unusual to find in a Jimena de la Frontera property. The property has a paved drive and stone wall fencing constructed in an artisanal style with rustic stone work built to last by master craftsmen. The pool is at the back of the property, facing open fields, giving privacy from the road. As you may expect, there is also a barbecue area on a raised porch area between kitchen and pool; a wonderful shaded area for entertaining al fresco for family and friends. The owner has recently improved the stone walls in the garden and it looks very rustic and with added charm.

Location Near River

This detached home, located near the river, famous hill side walks and the historic castle of Jimena de la Frontera, is on the market at a great price. Located in a peaceful part of Jimena old town, 5 minutes on foot from the river offering beautiful country walks and the castle can be seen from the street. This property is nestled in the beautiful Andalusian foothills. At only 280,000 € it really is a good deal and one that could be snapped up as a short to medium term investment.

Great Opportunity

We do not think there is another property on the market at this price with good sized pool and 2 garages in this beautiful white village of Jimena de la Frontera. It is an ideal family home either to live in all year round or as a second home to get away from the stresses and strains of working life. Situated 30 minutes from La Linea/Gibraltar, it is possible to commute to work from here. Do not let this opportunity pass you by. You owe it to yourself to at least view this property.

Algeciras Hacienda Huerto de Ocaño

October 7, 2020

7 Bed 7 Bath Country Home

Singular opportunity to purchase a unique property located at the tip of Southern Spain in the Campo de Gibraltar. This 7 bed, 7 bath home combines a Moorish, Andaluz style with the colonial features of 19^th century Spain. Yet, it is very much of the 21^st century – well connected logistically to North Africa by sea, Jerez and Gibraltar airports a short car ride away. Sevilla and Cadiz offer possible day trips or mini break destinations. Plus, the golf courses of Sotogrande and the kite surfing of Tarifa are but 20 minutes away. Olé.

Twin Pillars of Hercules

This special bolthole is an ideal place to revitalise your energies and unleash your creativity whilst entertaining family and friends. Enjoy the atmosphere of this safe and inviting home without a Covid 19 mask in sight. Nestled in Los Alcornocales Natural park with views that encompass the bay across to Africa and the twin pillars of Hercules. Rest assured the paperwork is impeccable. The finca is 2.6 hectares. Of which just less than half is categorised as urban residential use and the rest for agriculture. Importantly, there is a spring and a well for irrigation. The spring water would be suitable for drinking with a filtration system added. It is also an extremely cheap source for filling the large swimming pool and watering the plants and lawn. In addition, there is mains drinking water on tap.

Summer Kitchen, Pool and BBQ

As you’d expect, there’s a summer kitchen and barbecue area to entertain in style by the pool in those hot summer months. There is also a stunning loggia with a Cuban colonial influence.

Spacious Living Quarters

Inside the main house on the ground floor there is a spacious living area of study, sitting room and drawing room which optimises the space according to the season. You can afford this generosity in a property of over 500 m2. On this floor there is also a cloakroom and a charming bedroom. The ground floor is the heart of the home, with kitchen, breakfast area and formal dining room also on this level. The garage is located beneath this where there is also a bathroom, porch and cosy sitting room. Upstairs, on the top floor, are 6 bedrooms – 3 of them en-suite. The others share a large, luxury bathroom. Please refer to the floor plans for a concise overview. Naturally, there is air conditioning and heating throughout. There is also a 2 bed, 1 bath cottage at the entrance.

Location: Bay of Algeciras

This is a lovingly restored property that you really must see to appreciate all that it offers. These days it is less and less easy to find a residence of this calibre in the countryside, especially with so much of its land approved and designated for urban use. Located above the Bay of Algeciras, nicely to the west of an Industrial Park and around 10 minutes above Getares beach. It is fully legal with all paperwork up to date and a mortgage is available if that is of interest to you. IBI is approx. 3,600 EUR per annum.

There is a kitchen with serving hatch, large sitting room / dining room, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom plus additional cloak room on the ground floor.

(For rentals there is approximately 1,200 m2. The rest is rented out to a local family on an informal basis to grow avocados. Please see link below for more information.)

There is a chill zone where you can be shaded from the heat of the day – or even from the rain on the few occasions that happens! This means you can use the outdoor space almost all year round.

Rustic yet Modern

If you’ve pictured a life in the country with a little land, a swimming pool and home comforts, this could be the property for you. Located in a wonderful part of San Pablo de Buceite, near the river and surrounded by nature. There is a stylish blend of comfort; a fusion of modern living and rustic tradition which creates a charm that lures. You are both at one with nature and sufficiently close to others not to feel isolated. The main part of the village is 3 km away and this property is located in a small hamlet that has developed slightly apart. The zone is recognised as an urban nucleus and is surrounded by avocado trees and woodlands. You can go for walks in the Los Alcornocales Natural Park in which the lane is set. This is a really beautiful location and properties seldom come onto the market here.
