This fabulous property is now being sold as a going concern with all farm machinery included.
Income from the farm is derived from olives, almonds, an EU farming subsidy and firewood. There are ways to significantly increase income from the farm, but current income averages around €100,000 per annum. It would also be possible to run the farmhouse as a Bed & Breakfast property, subject to obtaining a tourism license, or contracting out the farmwork.
The farmhouse was restored over a period from mid-2006 to late 2007.
Ground Floor
Throughout the house there is an overwhelming feeling of space and an elegantly gracious atmosphere, particularly in the principal rooms. Stairs lead from the reception hall up to the large galleried landing and the wide hall leads down to the lovely drawing room. Open fireplace and french windows onto the terrace outside.
Moving back up the hall, there is a dining room and then a large family kitchen/breakfast room with a central island and space for a table and chairs. Large cooking range.
The utility room houses domestic appliances and the pellet boiler for the central heating. Door to the rear terrace.
At the other end of the hall, there is a very characterful music room/second living room with lovely exposed timber beams and a wood-burning stove.
Downstairs loo.
Farm Office/Studio. This is a spacious room with a door to the front of the farmhouse and it is currently used as the administrative hub of the farm. The whole house and garden is covered seamlessly with a WiFi6 STARLINK internet connection.
Adjacent to the office, there is another large store room that is currently used for storing pellets for the heating system, and with a hopper that feeds the boiler in the next door utility room. Door to the rear terrace.
First Floor
The landing doubles as another sitting room/library space.
The master bedroom is huge, with a range of built-in wardrobes and doors onto a lovely terrace that affords fabulous views over the surrounding countryside. Large and bright ensuite bathroom with full bath, shower, WC, bidet and vanitory unit.
There are 4 further bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms and a separate walk-in laundry room.
Outside
There is a gated entrance to the farm courtyard and a gate leads through to the garden area, with terraces and a covered verandah. The rear terrace gives access to the plant room that houses the batteries for the solar electricity storage, a back up generator and a hugely sophisticated monitoring system for the property’s power supply.
There is a large concrete water storage tank, fed either by rainwater or 13,000 litre tanker deliveries if required.
The property has a license to install a meter, line the existing bore hole and extract up to 365,000 litres per year for domestic use only.
The 23 hectares of land is broken down as follows:
19 hectares of 5,500 old (100+ years) and new (20+ years) olive trees, Picual, Picudo, Marteña, and Hojiblanca varieties. The Picual and Picudo oil is in demand from olive oil blenders. There are then 3 hectares of almond trees of mixed varieties
