Beautiful Cortijo & Casita With Exclusive Pool, Stunning Mountain Views New 2017 | House in Órgiva, Spain

Two properties each with their own kitchens, bedrooms and living areas and their own covered terraces set 10/15m from each other in two acres of grass lawn with the beautiful large tiled pool.
There are a number of rose bushes across the land and a particularly lovely line of roses to one side of the pool. Mature oleander bushes edge part of the property and the terraces also have the inevitable pots of flowing geraniums which are such a feature of Southern Spain! The houses look out to the stunning Lujar mountains to the front and the Sierra Nevada to the back.
Arriving through the electronic gates, there is ample parking for 4 cars. The houses are 10-15m from each other on the property which is filled with olive, orange, lemon, peach, pomegranate, prickly pears, almond and avocado trees. Each house has a covered patio for outdoor dining and relaxing, and the casita also has a little patio at the rear for those quiet coffee moments away from the kids, or a cheeky glass of cava at the end of the day!! There is a table tennis table under the ancient olive tree on one of the Cortijo’s terraces.
The pool is a beautiful tiled 12m x 5m pool and has a magnificent rock for the kids to jump from. We defy anyone not to love the pool, from which there are views of the Lujar mountains on the one side and the Sierra Nevada to the other. Amazing at Easter when you can swim with a view of the snow capped mountains. The pool is swimmable up until early November and we are back in it in March!
The Cortijo is on two floors, and has two large master bedroom suites (one on the first floor and the other on the ground) each with ensuite bathrooms. The third double bedroom on the first floor (at the other end of the corridor from the upstairs master) has the original beams which are a feature throughout the house and shares the third bathroom with another small room. All bedrooms have A/C/ heating units. There are 2 put-me-up style folding beds that are available upon request for children. There is also a cot for the very small people! The downstairs double bedroom can be turned into a twin or even a triple bedroom if required. So the whole property can sleep up to 12 adults and a baby.
The eating and living areas are an open plan flowing set up with kitchen, two sitting areas, and dining as well as study area for those who need to work from home. The kitchen is new with all mod cons, in particular a large 5 burner cooker and an American style fridge.
To one side of the kitchen, through double doors is the study area, leading through to the dining room and "cosy" sitting room which is particularly snug in the winter with the fire roaring. This latter also has A/C heating unit. To the other side of the kitchen is the "fun" open plan sitting room with glass double doors opening out onto terrace looking toward the pool and Lujar mountain and beyond that is the downstairs master.
In addition, there is a lavadoro with washing machine and a spare downstairs loo annexed to the Cortijo, but also separately accessible by the Casita and from the pool/gardens.
The Casita looks out to the Lujar and has views straight down to the property’s own olive grove. It is on one level with two large bedrooms. Both are doubles, one with a king double bed and a vanity unit and the other has a double bed. Each has A/C heating units. There are one and a half bathrooms, utility area with washing machine and also has a large kitchen and comfortable living area.
Both houses are decorated in traditional Alpujarran style with terracotta floors hand-painted tiles in the bathrooms and kitchens, have open fires/wood burners for use in the winter but are cool, bright and airy during the hot summer.
Located in the Camino de La Estrella area on the outskirts of the bustling market town of Orgiva, it is a lovely 15 minute walk to town or just a matter of minutes in the car. Orgiva offers a range of shops, bars and restaurants as well as other useful amenities and is a popular destination for those who enjoy walking, cycling and horse riding as well as just chilling and appreciating the stunning views of the Alpujarras. There are stables a few minutes walk away from the house where they speak both English and Spanish. There is padel tennis available for booking if that's your groove. If you are looking for a secluded & relaxing getaway but close enough to local amenities then Los Conillos is the perfect spot.
• RESTAURANTS: Orgiva is packed with local restaurants and bars all of which serve local tapas free with your drinks! Our favourites are El Limonero and Venta Maria both run by locals and about 20 minutes walk away/few minutes drive; There is also the bustling town square with bars and a weekly market on a Thursday.
• COAST/BEACH: The Beaches nearby are only a 30 minute drive and can be located at Motril, with Playa de Granada being the nearest. This has various ‘chiringuitos’ to choose from with sun beds to hire as well as water sports on offer. Just five minutes further along the coast is the very pretty 'pink' town of Salobreña which hosts many lovely beach restaurants, on of our favourites being El Penon situated on a rock offering wide views of the bay as well as excellent food. Just a little further on are the coastal towns of Almunecar which has a terrific water park for the kids, and La Herradurra which is smaller with a pretty little horseshoe beach and one of the best chiringuitos we have ever been to - Playa Mango. And then of course there is Nerja offering a wide range of typical seaside activities with of course the historic caves which are astonishing.
• GRANADA: is a must and close too! It is a most beautiful old city with of course the incredible Alhambra (NB important to book well in advance). We have spent many a happy day wandering around the town and doing a “tapas” crawl! For those who want to go further afield is Cordoba with the amazing Mezquita and then not to forget Seville with its Cathedral.
• ALMERIA: THE WILD WEST: Where they shot the old spaghetti westerns. You can visit the film sets and see some real desert in the Cabo de Gata area of natural beauty. There are cute coastal villages too including the popular San Jose which we particularly love.
• DISTANCES: Orgiva is a short walk/drive away. The beaches start from being 30 minutes away. Granada, a 45 minutes easy drive. Nerja and the caves are roughly 1 hour away. The famous and enchanting white washed higher mountain villages of Pampaneira, Bubion and Capileira start at 20 minutes and are well worth a visit. The ski resort of Sol Y Nieve in the Sierra Nevada is just over an hour away and offers excellent and extensive skiing facilities for all ages and experience.
• TRAVEL: Granada Airport is 50 minutes drive and Malaga airport is approximately one hour and 30 minutes along the excellent coastal road. Both airports have good car hire services on site.
