Country house Cueva Las yeseras, Baza

Great opportunity! A large south facing, cave house which comes with a good-sized parcel of land, completely fenced, gated and private, set in the beautiful countryside between Baza and Caniles in the province of Granada, Andalucia.

There are beautiful, unspoilt views looking over towards the Sierra de Baza and across the valley towards Baza town itself. Situated on the edge of a small cave community, it is a wonderfully quiet and peaceful location, but not isolated.

On the market for just €185,000, this beautiful, rural, 5/6 bedroom cave house has a swimming pool and 3 sun terraces which are set over different levels with the most stunning views, on a plot of approximately 2,000m2 of land. The property also comes with a great business opportunity, with purpose built cattery, dog kennels and a pet grooming parlour.

In addition, the property includes a large double garage with space for two cars or one car and additional workshop space. Aside from the main gate, you enter the property via a long driveway, to the right of this is an in-ground 8 m 4 m rectangular swimming pool and outdoor shower. Above this is the garage, behind which is where the cattery is situated (3 pens), there is also a hand-built barbecue and amazing views from the top level.

On your left side, as you enter via the driveway, are the dog kennels, which are fully fenced and secure and include 6 large kennels and a spacious enclosed run. Beyond this at the bottom of the driveway is a huge open area planted with several fruit and nut trees, as well as nine raised vegetable planters for those who enjoy growing their own food. There are also a decent sized tool shed on hard standing and a greenhouse.

The cave house is set over 2 floors and covers approx 200m2. It currently has 1 single and 4 double bedrooms downstairs, one with a window overlooking the patio, a family bathroom with an electric water heater, shower, bath, toilet, basin and electric fan. There is a large L-shaped, open-plan living room and dining room with a wood burner. The kitchen has recently been reformed and includes a brand new built in gas oven and separate gas hob, modern spacious units and a breakfast bar.

The kitchen window overlooks the patio, and the main front door opens out onto the large patio and BBQ area with a covered pergola and ample seating and outside dining space.

On the first floor is a single, a large room with a high, sloping ceiling and three windows. It is currently used as a dog grooming salon and has a water supply and a gas water heater connected, so it could be converted into a 6th bedroom if desired. This space would make a beautiful large ensuite bedroom with its own access outside to a further large terrace and stunning south facing views.

There is good ventilation throughout the cave house and it is in excellent condition throughout. All mains services are connected, internet is currently connected and has a strong signal and there is also a working Sky satellite dish.

This property needs to be seen to appreciate all it has to offer and is a great business opportunity for someone wanting to set up a pet care company. This pet boarding and grooming business opportunity could provide a good income. The house is ready to move into and is being sold part furnished. All the doors and windows are fitted with rejas.

It has every amenity you could need including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a hospital, bars, restaurants, a theatre, schools, sports centres etc.
