This Cortijo is located in a superb setting in the Sierra de la Contraviesa, an area of Fine Cultural Interest, a beautifully restored old Cortijo offering a wealth of charm and traditional features. It is accessed by a private drive winding through spectacular open scenery with magnificent views towards the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the blue waters of the Costa Tropical on the Mediterranean coast.

With the extensive accommodation (approx 577 m2) this is an ideal choice for a commercial business or domestic retreat for either one or two families wishing to live or work together. This tourism complex contains a lovely family home plus 4 independent rental properties, all beautifully decorated in traditional Aplujarran style. If you wish to continue with the rental business, there is a dedicated web site that is transferable to the new owners.

In total the property comprises of 8 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 5 kitchens and 5 reception rooms. There is also an old "Bodega" store room, which has been partly restored and would require only interior decoration to provide a further 50 m2 of accommodation, plus a large garage / store room. In our opinion this is a peaceful position, in tranquil countryside, a perfect sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of modern living.

In addition there are landscaped gardens with various fruit trees, including a vegetable garden, ample parking, and lovely courtyard with pool and BBQ facilities, ample seating areas (some shaded) al-fresco dining areas, 4 sun terraces with spectacular views of open countryside and 7.5 hectares of land, predominantly cultivated to almonds, figs, olives and established vines, these include vines of Grenache, Tempranillo and Vigiriego varieties and yield in excess of 500 liters of good quality wine.

Cortijo las Chumbas is an authentic Alpujarran property, tastefully restored and decorated to a high standard, using traditional building skills and organic materials, full of rustic charm with chestnut beams, terracotta tiled floors, handmade wooden doors and natural slate kitchen work surfaces.
