Full Description: Altogether the estate comprises the main house with gardens, 2 holiday cottages, 15acres of land, a garage/stable area, and a ruin suitable for conversion. The estate is located in the beautiful Poqueira Gorge opposite the mountain villages of Pampaneira, Bubion & Capileira, so the setting is within idyllic scenery and is very peaceful, with stunning views. This would be a fantastic purchase as there is so much within the estate, as well as several business opportunities to pursue.
The main house measures 158sq.m. and was built less than 20 years ago. It has some lovely stone walls, and with the rest whitewashed and with tiled floors as well, this house has a very traditional style. There are 3 bedrooms, 1 being en-suite, and there is also a second bathroom. The lounge, diner, and kitchen are all open-plan and there is a wood-burning stove here to provide heat (with facilities at the property to store wood). Outside are mature gardens, with a large porch and seating area, and a patio from which to enjoy the lovely views. The property has a private driveway from the track, and parking for 4 cars. There is full solar power and solar water heating.
The 2 holiday cottages would be perfect for letting in order to provide an income, and they are sold with all furniture, fixtures, fittings, linen, crockery, cooking utensils, etc, included, so the buyer would be able to begin business immediately if desired. They are well decorated, with lovely beamed ceilings, and stone and whitewashed walls, and tiled floors. Both have solar power for water heating and light. The first cottage has 2 twin rooms with en-suite, and an open plan lounge and dining kitchen. There is a wood-burning stove here, and an enclosed patio outside. The second cottage has one double en-suite bedroom, a lounge with wood-burning stove, a kitchen diner, and a patio outside.
The present owners have established a successful business with their holiday home accommodation, and they also provide horse-trekking holidays. This is a great opportunity for the buyer to purchase an already proven business, with all facilities, and the owners are also happy to provide lists of clients, suppliers, contacts, etc to help the buyer continue successfully. (Not included in the overall sale price, but available for purchase, is other useful business support, 4 trekking horses, saddles, bridles etc. A 4-wheel drive car is also available for sale. Please negotiate with the owner for further details of any of these).
Included in the estate is 15acres of land, with a large orchard growing vegetables, fruit trees, grape vines, etc. There are 2 reservoirs here as well; a large one used for irrigation and water, and a smaller one that could be converted into a plunge pool. The land has spring water, and water rights from the acequias.
There is also a garage/stable area measuring 70sq.m, with solar lighting. This could be used for several purposes, including conversion into another 2 bedroomed cottage. A 120sq.m ruin is also located on the estate, which is suitable for conversion and could make a lovely 3 bedroomed house.
This whole estate represents a fantastic opportunity as there is so much included in the site, plus the potential to run a business, and there is the added advantage of it all being located in an extremely beautiful and tranquil location.
