Detached country house near Torremendo on fenced plot of 2,500m² . Built in 2002. 240m² built, plus 40m² upper terrace overlooking large freshwater lake with good fishing. High stone wall surrounds house and garden. 80m² patio with pergola joins the new house to the original 19th century finca. Local stone was used extensive ly to re build the high stone wall which surrounds the house and garden, and to build a large external chimney to match the old farmhouse. The old -#39;finca-#39; is preserved as it was built with some re-roofing with the original tiles. Although currently usedas a store-room, it-#39;s old living room, with a log fire roaring up the chimney, has proved popular with guests at the annual Bonfire Night party. (There is ample parking for the 100 guests who attend). The old house could well be used as offices, workshop, storeroom, or indeed to provide additional accommodation. A large tiled patio of 80m² joins the old house to the new, and a 6m², grapevine and bright bougainvilla covered, pergola provides shade between. An old animal pen of the old house is our log-store, and the old pigsty, although no longer roofed, has a good floor of old sandstone slabs and adds to our storage area. Two large pomegranate trees and a vine receive rainwater from the roof of the old house and flourish. The vine produces about thirty bunches of sweet, black grapes each year without any special care, and the pomegranates are delicious. There are other old pomegranate trees elsewhere on the land and we have planted another on our lower terrace, which is our orchard. A good harvest of apricots, figs, pears, nispero and apples. The first peaches and paraguays were seen last year. The olive tree that was planted produces juicy black olives in increasing quantities each year. Another cactus plant, trailing over our wall from the neighbours-#39; house, produces huge white flowers, sometimes as many as thirty at a time. They open one evening and, sadly, die the next day. There are various planted palms, yuccas and other trees, some of which are now as high as the house. On one rocky outcrop there are planted local pines. One mature pine on the land givesoff the loveliest perfume at times. There are four old carob trees; The beans are given to the neighbour for his goats.
