The ideal opportunity to buy a unique property and build a
business in a lovely part of Andalucia
still unspoilt but only
one hour from Malaga.
This 325 sq m property situated in the hamlet of Llano Almendra
is in a perfect location of being nearly equidistant between the 3 villages of Comares, Riogordo and
Benamargosa.
The charm of Comares, the quaintness of Riogordo and the practicality of Benamargosa is a great location to capture the tourist trade which is growing in rural Spain if a business is for you.
Not only is this an historic property dating back 300 years
but it’s quirkiness and
character is balanced by it’s diversity
which includes 4 separate buildings with potential for a 5th
via conversion of a storage room.
The lead building has to be Lemon Grove Farmhouse set
over 2 levels and with charm galore.
As soon you enter into a farmhouse kitchen with double Belfast sinks, cooker with double-oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave and wood-burning stove you feel at home and in
the hub of the
property.
There are 2 rooms leading from the kitchen/diner with could make small bedrooms or ideal for an office to help run the business.
Leading down from the kitchen via a few steps takes you into a lovely family bathroom, once the goat shed, with a bathtub, sink, toilet, shower and separate shower. There are little hints all over this
property as to it’s heritage and providence.
Just outside this bathroom are steps up to a double bedroom once the hay loft, so the character of the property always continues.
Then from outside this bedroom is a staircase that leads to a good size lounge area just outside the very large master bedroom. Once you enter the master bedroom to
your left you have a good size walk in wardrobe and to the right is an en-suite bathroom with a shower over a bath, sink, toilet and bidet.
If this is not enough for a master bedroom you can then wander back into the sleeping area and walk outside, via double doors onto a large terrace partly sun shaded which is perfect for star gazing and in summer soaking up the rays in total
privacy !
Attached to Lemon Grove is a deceptively well laid out 3 bedroom cottage called Ivy Cottage, which on the ground floor you have the living quarters with it’s lounge, then kitchen and bathroom,
then upstairs are 3 bedrooms, one being a Double, one twin
and a single bedroom.
From Ivy Cottage and attached to it is a very cute one bedroom cottage which you enter the double bedroom and from there you have a bathroom and kitchen.
If this lovely collection of historic buildings is not enough then sitting above these 3 properties is a newer 2 bedroom cottage in it’s own fenced ground and without the need for anyone
living there to pass Lemon Grove and the other cottages.
The Top Cottage is a good size with a bathroom as you enter on the right and then through the good sized well equipped kitchen you have a comfortable lounge with a log burner.
In the middle of the cottage is a stairway leading up to a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, there is even a
cost effective possibility of extending the double bedroom over the flat roof below and adding an en-suite.
This totally flexible collection of properties has been in the ownership of one family for 40 years, it has been lovingly restored, created and made into a business, the owner though now in her stage of life knows it is time to move on and pass the batten onto a new owner and custodian who wishes to expand the business, the potential is enormous
and scope for a Yoga retreat, Bed and Breakfast or even a Digital Nomad hub, let your imagination run wild and invest in a stunning and historic property in a great location.
Or of course a large family house where families can all stay and not get under each others feet is another option.
Outside Lemon Grove Farmhouse you have a large covered
area great for lounging and entertainment and a large BBQ area
just off this.
Another bonus is a large storage area below these terraces accessed by stairs which could be converted into yet another rental.
Looking down from this terrace you see the
lovely purpose built
8x 4 m swimming pool with plenty of terrace for sun-loungers.
Although the complex does not sit in acres of ground that can be an advantage as what there is, is usable and pretty flat, many non Spanish buy in the campo and look for lots of land to realise it is lot of hard work and around Comares it can often be
steep and unusable unless you are a mountain goat !
This is a large collection of properties which has history, flexibility and charm and for the price is great value.
