A fantastic opportunity here. We have taken over 7 years to build this unique Farmhouse in a most fantastic location of Spain. Views of 5 different mountain ranges and overlooking the gorgeous Moorish town of Alhama de Granada with it`s famous hot srings and Gorge. The Historic City of Granada is 50 minutes drive away. The airports of Granada (45 mins) Malaga 1 hour 15 mins). The coast Costa del Sol can be reached in 50 minutes and the Sierra Nevada Ski slopes are under 1 hour. We have the most spectacular 360 degree views with no near neighbours yet only 8 minutes drive from the town, where there is a very good selection of Bars and Restaurants. The fully fenced 9+ acres of land surrounding the house is an Almond grove. This is a source of income together with the annual Government Grant. There is also a thriving Boarding kennels on the land which generates a goood income. Some of our clients travelling over 3 hours each way to bring their pets into us for their holidays. The kennels are situated about 160 metres away from the house and also includes an office, grooming facility and separate dog run. At the other end of the land is a 3 bed Mobile home in it`s own fenced garden. This has an additional Summer House, 2 toilets and Shower rooms as well as a steel shed.
The Farmhouse covers over 250 sq mtrs and has been built in the Rustic Style with exposed Beams, Stonework, Brickwork and inglenook fireplaces yet has all the mod cons of 2 Log burners (1 with built in oven) and Full Oil Fired Underfloor heating. There is a large Lounge with picture window overlooking the land, Mountains and the Town. A very large open planned Kitchen Diner and sitting room. 5 bedrooms. 4 Bathrooms with master having a his and hers bathroom as well as a separate walk in wardrobe. Next to the kitchen is a utility room with access to the courtyard, Log store, workshop and garage. The house has many storage areas both inside and out. There are many seating areas around the house for use depending on the time of year. A large Moroccan style covered terrace for relaxing and eating together with an awning covered terrace outside of the Lounge. There is also a Courtyard, Log Store, Splash Pool, Large Workshop and Huge Triple Garage. We have been told that the house is a one off and by far the best in the locality. It must really be seen to appreciate this beautiful house. The Building is completely Legal which is rare for a property of this size in an outstanding location. You will not find another like it in Spain. We are also offering the Farming equipment, Tractor, Trailer, Plough, Spraying attachments, Roller and our 2 cars.
One car is an old 1999 4 x 4 7 seater Mitsubishi Monterro 2.8 Turbo in fantastic condition except for sun damage to the paintwork on the roof and bonnet. The other car is an 2003 Renault Kangoo Diesel. This has been a great work horse for us and it has done over 200,000 Kilometres. A very reliable car although some of the electrics work whenever they feel like it. A door will unlock then it wont, a window will roll down then it wont. Both cars have been regularly serviced and we have owned them for a good number of years. The Tractor and all equipment we purchased from new.
INCOME. The Kennels. There can be no guarantees as to your income from these because it would really depend on you. The job would suit those who are genuine animal lovers as we are. We have a regular clientele and our income has given a pretty good standard of living since they opened 9 years ago. Our boarding guests are well looked after and cared for. To view our just go to Wagtails Kennels Spain on the internet. The Almonds. We really enjoy harvesting these ourselves. It takes the 2 of us between 3 and 4 weeks to complete. We de - husk the nuts using our own machine which attaches to the tractor before taking them down to the local cooperative for weighing and payment. Again there can be no guarantees as to the income from these. It depends on the weight and quality of the crop. There is also a Government grant each year for farming Almonds. This amount varies year on year. The locals make quit an event from harvesting the Almonds. Usually the whole family joins in to help. They set up a table and chairs put on a nice tablecloth have an abundance of, Bread, Cheese and Wine and have a really good time bringing in their harvest. We usually take out a picnic with a flask of Coffee plus maybe a drink with a little bit more strength in it to help us through each day. If you just wanted to live in a fantastic farmhouse in a beautiful location but would rather not do all the work, there are plenty of people only to pleased to do it for you. At a cost of course. There is also a machine that can do the harvest for you in about 5 hours. Problem with this is that it takes out the enjoyment and feeling of achievement. Then there is the mobile home. You could either rent it out long term or for holiday lets or maybe let the person who runs the farm/kennels for you use it. Whatever, it is another source of income for you should you want it.
I could say the usual thing. A Genuine reason for sale, which by the way there is, but, to leave this house, this business, this location this town will be heart wrenching. We have put every ounce of our hearts, souls, sweat,blood and tears into it, not to mention a skip load of money. We just hope that whoever takes on this fantastic opportunity will care for it and love it as we do. May consider a property swap or part exchange.
