An excellent modern ( built 2000) country house/cortijo, with 3 bedrooms, on a large piece of land with an outhouse and stables. The finca is located on the southern slopes of the Alpujarra litoral at an altitude of 730 m and is reached from the A 4131 ( the road from Orgiva to the Contaviesa) by 4 km of asphalted road (which continues on past the hamlet of Olias, down to the coast as a dirt track) and finally by 1 km of good track. The house has 130 m2 built and consists of two living rooms, one with an open plan kitchen at one end and a very good wood burning fireplace at the other, four bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room. One part of the house, consisting of the smaller living room, a bedroom and a shower room, is an annexe that has separate access to the covered terrace in front of and on one side of the house and which can be closed off from the rest of the house and used as separate accommodation. Most of the rooms have wall mounted heating/airconditioning units. The house is connected to mains electricity ( 3.5 kW). Water for domestic use and for irrigation is supplied by springs on the land. A short distance from the house is a large (5m by 16 m) building used for storeage, and a little further away is a two storey building built as stables with hayloft. Adjacent is a water storeage deposit. The land is 3.8 Ha of south facing land, hillside and gently sloping, classified as 1 Ha of dry almond land, 1 Ha of dry olive land, 1.2 Ha of scrubland, and 0.6 Ha of pasture There are mountain oaks and many types of frruit trree.
