Cave-house Flores in Los Olivos (Castilléjar)
This is a beautifully renovated, spacious, detached cave house with a large, private garden patio, ready to move in. The property is located in the hamlet of Los Olivos, a 5 minute drive from the pastoral village of Castilléjar on the Altiplano de Granada. The property is perfect as a family holiday home or for full time living in a beautiful and quiet natural area with nearby amenities.
This cave house was renovated in 2019. It was finished to a high strandard and is impeccably maintained.
The house has an entrance hall, kitchen with pantry, dining room, living room, sitting room, 3 double bedrooms (1 with mountain views), 1 bathroom and a storage/laundry room.
Above the house is a former corral with stone walls. The property has parking space in front. Access is good.
The garden patio is fully walled and has a delightful sitting area, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or tapas and wine. This is a relaxing Andalusian patio with a touch of zen. Plantings include a pomegranate tree, roses, mock orange, aloe vera, oleander, passion flower, honeysuckles and young conifers. There is space to install a jacuzzi or maybe even a small above-ground pool.
Adjacent to the garden patio is the storage/laundry room which has a fireplace, and could be converted into an additional bedroom or a workshop.
Interior of the house
The entrance door is built into a recess in the mountain wall, offering protection from the sun or occasional rain. You enter a central front hall with 3 doorways. To the right you access the beautifully finished kitchen with garden view, wooden cabinets and mosaic tile. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large pantry.
The kitchen connects to a spacious dining room which, in turn, connects to a living room, also accessible from the central front hall. To the left from the central hall is a sitting room with a wood-burning stove and a double bedroom to the right.
Opposite, is the beautifully finished bathroom with a shower and a sunny double bedroom with garden views. Next to this bedroom, a stairway with decorative tiles leads up to a bright, airy room, with exposed beams, a wood-burning stove and mountain views. This room feels a little like a tower room and offers multiple possibilities: third bedroom, office or game room.
The section comprising the bathroom, adjacent bedroom and room upstairs are located in the outbuild part of the house; the rest of the dwelling is fully cave.
Location, services, and tourist attractions
Los Olivos is a hamlet in the municipality of Castilléjar. In Castilléjar you will find essential services such as a doctor's office, pharmacy, school, bank, grocery store, bar-restaurants, and a weekly market.
Huéscar, about 15 km away, offers additional amenities and services including more restaurant-bars, shops, a large weekly market and 24/7 medical care. The city of Baza, 30 km away, has large supermarkets and the regional hospital.
Los Olivos has a beautiful and spacious communal swimming pool open in the summer. There are also natural spring-fed pools in Orce and Huéscar, and reservoirs with turquoise waters throughout the region.
This is a wonderfully unspoilt region of Spain where life still moves at the relaxed pace of traditional Spain. The villages of the region celebrate cultural festivals throughout the year and everyone is invited to participate.
The area is also notable for its archaeological richness, such as the Argaric settlement of Loma de la Balunca, one of the most important cultures of Prehistory in the Iberian Peninsula.
The surrounding countryside provides stunning landscapes of the Castilléjar badlands, hiking trails, mountain biking, paragliding, and spectacular night skies free from light pollution.
