    This is a beautifully presented house, just recently completely redecorated. It was built in 2007 and has since been restyled and refitted by the correct owners to provide a really stylish and very comfortable home. The accommodation is all on one floor, but there is a huge basement garage that could be converted to provide additional accommodation (more bedrooms or a self-contained flat) if required.

    The property sits up from the quiet road and has the most glorious views over rolling hills towards the Sierra Nevada mountains. Behind the property sits a dramatic mountain, and there is a large plot of land planted with Olive Trees, currently tended by a neighbouring farmer.

    From the lane below, there is a concrete drive that leads up to the house and there is parking for several cars as well as access to the gated garage.

    Accommodation

    Large kitchen/dining room that has been extremely well fitted and has plenty of storage space and a central island. There is room for a dining table. Doors open from the kitchen onto the lovely covered verandah that runs the length of the house and around to the pool terrace. This is a beautiful space in all seasons, with ample room for sofas, a table and chairs, barbecue etc.

    Double doors lead from the kitchen into the elegant and stylish living room, with wood burning stove set into a fireplace on the far wall. Doors open onto the verandah and into the two bedrooms.

    Each bedroom is large and they have fitted wardrobes, air conditioning and their own ensuite bathrooms.

    The property is a very successful holiday rental, managed and advertised through Rustical Travel with rental rates set at between €815 - €1,290 per week, so the property generates a good annual income from these holiday rentals. You can see the property on the Rustical Travel website.

    Although the property generates an income as a rental, this is a property that would be an ideal permanent home as it is so spacious, bright and comfortable and it is set in the most beautiful countryside. If you are looking for peace and quiet, expansive views, nature and a bit of luxury, then this is an ideal property.

    The house is located in a rural corner, on the borders of Granada and Jaén Provinces. The nearest village is Cequia, which has a local bar, and then Ermita Nueva is a little further along the road (1.6 kms). Alcalá la Real is the nearest commercial town.

The BBC One programme, ‘Amanda and Alan’s Spanish Job’ was filmed across Andalucia throughout the summer of 2024. Amanda Holden and Alan Carr bought an abandoned village house in Moclín through Granada Village & Country, and the historic village was the main focus for the programme, following Alan and Amanda’s progress as they restored the property.

‘Amanda and Alan’s Spanish Job’ will be shown on BBC One in January 2025 and will be available on iPlayer.

The restored property will be available for sale through Granada Village & Country, and featured on Rightmove, at the end of the series.
