The Ermita de la Virgen de Fatima, a picturesque little chapel whose site was chosen for its spectacular views, sits quietly at one end of the land of the Cortijo de la Virgen de Fatima. This remarkable cortijo consists of nearly two acres of land on a hilltop with good level track access ( two km. to the main road to Orgiva, which is ten km. from this point) and absolutely spectacular 360` views.. the peaks of the Sierra Nevada and the pueblos blancos of the Poquiera valley to the north, and the Sierra Lujar to the south. The land ( 6,000 sq.m.) comprises a mature garden, with two manicured laws, flowerbeds and hundreds of beautiful rosebushes, other exotic plants, and terraces of fruit trees ( including oranges, apples, pears, avocadoes, mandarins, figs, pomegranates etc. and of course lemons!). There are five buildings, in all about 250 sq.m., clustered together, which make up the main house and casita apartment. The main house has two stories, with, on the ground floor, two large adjacent sitting rooms with a swedish woodburning stove, and, on the first floor, two bedrooms ( two doubles and one single), a large hallway/library, a walk-in closet, and a large shower room/wc.
Opposite the ground floor of the house ( in a separate one storey building) is a large, light, newly built, air-conditioned kitchen/dining room which happily seats ten people around a huge wooden table. French doors open onto a terrace, again with fabulous views, perfect for entertaining and taking leisurely long lunches.
A short distance from the house, across a courtyard bright with flowers, is a delightful two bedroom casita ( small house) with a living room with another wood burning stove, and a shower room. Additional to the main house and the casita is a small charming bodega with a bread/pizza oven, a large workshop/storerom containing the water purification plant, a utility room with another walk-in shower room, and a small pumphouse for the pool and for irrigation of the land. The new 8 by 4m pool is located next to one of the lawns, with a surrounding terrace and adjacent barbecue area, and has phenomenal views directly to the Sierra Nevada's highest peak (11,500 feet) 20 miles distant. The entire property is gated and surrounded by a wall, giving privacy and security. A great deal of work has been carried out to restore the property with regard to local aesthetics; nevertheless little has been spared to provide the maximum in comfort, including wireless broadband access! The property is connected to mains electricity and has been rewired. On an adjacent plot of land is a large reservoir with abundant mountain water, supplying domestic needs as well as irrigation water for the land and garden.
This is an absolutely unique property and is a realisation of most people's fantasy of what a dream property in Spain should be.
There is an adajacent property, corijo la Roca, (OR216) also for sale at 85k euros.
