Country House, La Zarza, Murcia For Sale
Description
Interesting opportunity for investors or buyers seeking a unique renovation project with authentic charm. Located in the small village of La Raja, and close to the town of Pinoso, this semi-reformed country house combines traditional cave living with a constructed two-storey home, offering multiple possibilities for residential use or rental investment.
Property Overview
- The property is distributed over two floors and consists of two clearly differentiated sections. Approximately 100 m² of the house is carved directly into stone, forming a traditional Spanish cave home. These cave spaces maintain a naturally stable temperature throughout the year, remaining cool in summer and warm in winter. The larger attached section is conventionally built and expands the total living space.
Layout and Features
- The house is arranged over two independent levels, each with its own entrance, allowing the property to be divided into two separate living units if desired. This adds significant flexibility for rental potential or multi-family use.
Inside, the property includes:
- A spacious open-plan kitchen
- A traditional cave kitchen with fireplace and oven
- Several cave rooms that can be adapted as bedrooms, storage areas, offices, studios or creative spaces
- A living room with fireplace
- A renovated bathroom
- An upstairs bedroom
- The combination of constructed rooms and natural cave spaces creates a distinctive atmosphere full of character and potential.
Outdoor Areas
- The property features a walled patio offering privacy and an ideal outdoor seating area. There is also a garage and a plot of land of over 1,000 m², perfect for creating a garden, orchard, or leisure space. From the land, you can enjoy beautiful open views of the surrounding landscape.
Utilities and Access
- The house is connected to mains drinking water and mains electricity. Access is easy via a fully asphalted road, ensuring comfortable year-round entry.
Potential
- Although the property requires partial renovation, it represents excellent value for money considering its size, unique cave structure, land, and location. With the right vision, it could become a charming permanent residence, holiday retreat, or rural rental investment with strong character and appeal.
