San Pablo Riverside Property

January 29, 2024

Riverside 3 bed 2 bath Property

Delightful 3 bed 2 bath property with separate storage area and additional metal container which serves as independent studio apartment without bathroom. This is a 4,566 m2 plot and property. There is space for parking once within the gates of the house but no roofed area as such. The downstairs measures 81 m2 and upstairs is 25 m2 – a total of 106 m2, although it seems much bigger when you are inside.

There are two separate terrace areas / patios leading off from the main house. Once you come in through the front door, the first bedroom is on your left as you enter, with downstairs bathroom straight ahead. Opposite the bedroom is the kitchen and dining area and a small loggia. There is a mezzanine style gallery with bookcases on the first floor and the exterior rooms consist of two bedrooms and a bathroom on this floor.

Garden and Swimming Pool

Large garden which leads right down to the Guadiaro river. Stroll a little further and you can swim in the river. Excellent spot for migratory birds. Also very popular area for country rambles and horse riding. This property would make an ideal permanent home or Casa Rural / Vivienda Rural for short term holiday lets.

The garden has mature fruit trees and herb bushes plus a small orchard for lettuce, tomatoes, etc. Plenty of storage areas and a water tank for rain water plus drinkable water supply. The garden is irrigated from river water. The swimming pool is 10 metres x 5 metres approximately and is centre of the garden near the barbecue area. There is also space for sun loungers and it is a really attractive feature of the garden.

Light Reforms Necessary

This property is built on a loam soil near the river. Two extensions were added to the original foundations. This results in cracks appearing where the additional foundations join onto the main build. It may seem strange but the solution is just to render the cracks every couple of years and carry on enjoying the marvellous location. In addition, the road is a dirt track for part of it and a Hilux or 4 x 4 is recommended.

Perfect Location

Unrivalled location at the foot of the Alcornocales Natural Park – a wonderful cork oak forest of many hectares in a beautifully peaceful part of San Pablo de Buceite. There are a host of facilities nearby. The village is approximately 2 km away and has two supermarkets, a health centre, pharmacy and primary school. There is also a yoga centre and many different artesenal pursuits from pottery to candle making. The property is a kilometre and a half from the main road and as such is best suited to people with their own transport. Part of the access road is asphalted and part is a dirt road that can be a challenge without a 4 x 4 because of the dips and pot holes.

Rustic Property

This is a rustic property and as such it is not really probable that a bank will lend against it. However, it is possible subject to your personal profile for the owners to offer a private financing option. View now.

Colmenar Cortes 3 bed finca

December 4, 2023

Reduced to 395,000,00€

Off-grid home seeks new custodian.

Turnkey fully furnished property in Colmenar forest. This is a 3 bed, 3 bath finca of 1.1 hectares (11,000 m2) with space for non-permanent structures such as Yurts or Tepees. The main house is a single storey, raised roof bungalow of 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 open planned living room-kitchens. Each half connects to the large outdoor terrace via its own front door. If 2 independent living quarters were preferred, there is a connecting door.

The main home benefits from a large terrace which looks out due south to the mountains opposite and between them lie vistas of Africa. At night, look up, the sky is a vast expanse of stars unveiled and sparkling. To the right of the terrace is a pool and a 15 m2 covered chill zone/tea room that has a Moroccan feel to it.

In addition, at the bottom of the grounds is a separate studio with storage, living and sleeping area plus kitchen and bathroom of approximately 50 m2. This property is not registered as a residence and is subject to planning approval.

Very near to this little house is an imitation First Nations Medicine Wheel and an amazing stone sculpture of an iguana built from two large boulders to form the head and other stones of various sizes placed to create steps representing the flanks and legs.

Eco Culture Lifestyle Choice

During 23 years, the owners have transformed this estate into a permaculture of exceptional beauty. The finca is self-sufficient in many aspects. Apart from an annual run, to stock up on staples such as pulses and grains, the owners can stay here for months on end. An overall tropical feel, with frangipani flowers, tamarind trees and over 20 varieties of palm trees. There is an organic cornucopia of herbs, spices, fruit and vegetables all grown here: smoky cherry-tomatoes, elderberry, macadamias, mangos, mulberries and the amazing San Pedro cactus, to name but a few. Absolutely remarkable. Water is abundant. In summer they use around 10,000 litres daily of fresh spring water which is pumped from a bore hole and from an ancient spring used over millennia. Living off grid, they have 2 x 10,000 litre storage tanks for water and 12 solar panels which power 230 volts for day time usage and 12 watts for night time to disconnect from the hum. In addition they have a back-up petrol generator that they have almost never used. ADSL internet is via radio waves and both homes have washing machines and all necessary mod cons for 21^st century living.

Colmenar Cork Oak Forest

This is a very special property located in the heart of the Los Alcornocales Forest in Colmenar, Cortes. It would suit those who like being away from the madding crowd and have hidden depths of resources to call upon. You do not need to be a recluse or a hermit to live here, but the land must be maintained all year round. Naturally, it is such an exceptional place that it requires exceptional owners who in turn attract exceptional friends. The degree of separation depends on what you need and want. The village of Colmenar is within walking distance and there are lovely restaurants and a river beach there. Twenty minutes by car from there is the famous white village of Gaucín and if the coast calls you, it is a further 40 minutes’ drive.

Needs Permanent Presence

If it all sounds like bliss, arrange to view. If you would love to live there for a few months at a time, but your business does not allow you to disconnect for longer, consider employing permanent staff, and fly in when time allows. You need an off-grid / permaculture mentality for this to be a good fit. This will suit self reliant people capable of living away from others for long periods and may well be exactly what you have been waiting for. Only 395,000€
