Property description

This three-bedroom finca in El Colmenar, Andalucía, sits on about 1.1 hectares in a protected natural park. The grounds have been developed for permaculture, with more than 50 reported fruit and nut varieties. The final stretch of access calls for a four-wheel-drive vehicle.

Solar provides electricity with a generator for backup. The listing identifies a natural spring and a borehole. Confirm rights to both sources, generator fuel requirements, restrictions on future works, and access in different seasons. Heating and wastewater details are not published.

Location & climate

Approximate area: El Colmenar, Andalucía. Dry summers make seasonal water storage and wildfire assessment important. These are regional considerations, not a property hazard model.

Before you commit
