20,734m2 plot with mangos – 71m2 ancient cortijo – 1 bedroom casita – 15 mins from Frigiliana, 20 mins from Nerja/coast
A beautiful plot of land planted with productive mangos, with a cortijo in need of complete renovation, plus 1 bedroom ‘casa de aperos’ – ideal to purchase, live on site and renovate
Finca Holgado es located deep into the countryside, between Nerja and Torrox, and within around 15 minutes of the prestige village of Frigiliana. This is a place for those who love the countryside, wish to escape to a beautiful private retreat, where one could live or stay within the casita whilst slowly renovating to the original cortijo.
Private electric gates lead from the country lane onto the plot, and a large flat area is ideal for parking, gardens and general recreation, supported by a strong, well-built wall. The flat area (around 1200m2) is where both the studio casita is located, and the original cortijo. All around and below is the rest of the plot, planted with 1500 mango trees. The finca has a legal well supplying 1.5L per second of fresh mountain water to the property and into an underground reservoir of 40m3, supplying both the farm and the buidings. There is also an open reservoir with a capacity to store 90m3 of water, further down the plot – it could be used as a swimming pool.
The South and East facing plot is well protected from the North winds and the views are stunning, over the countryside and mountains.
This lovely, peaceful space is ideal for anyone wishing to seek a simple life working on the land, perhaps with a degree of self sufficiency, and making a small income from the mangos. It would suit an enthusiastic person or couple who do not mind renovating the little cortijo, but who are able to live in the studio meanwhile. And yet it is so near the lively and beautiful coastal town of Nerja and to the stunning mountain village of Frigiliana. A sound investment opportunity too.
