The property spans vast land, with grassy flat fields, wooded forests, and stunning natural rock pools along the river, making it a perfect retreat for those seeking privacy, peace, and an off-grid lifestyle in harmony with nature. The Lanjaron River itself provides a beautiful backdrop, and the natural pools offer a peaceful place to relax or cool off in summer. The property’s isolation ensures complete privacy, with no nearby neighbours or disturbances, providing a rare chance to reconnect with nature and live sustainably.

Access to the property is via a small, narrow road that ends in a section too tight for a standard vehicle but easily navigable by quad, adding to the sense of seclusion. The house itself is a charming 200m² structure, partially reformed with a natural, rustic style. It features wood floors and spacious living areas, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms already fully renovated, as well as a large lounge complete with a wood-burning stove to keep you warm in the cooler months. In addition, there are two more bedrooms that could be further renovated to suit your needs, with one already partially usable. The land surrounding the house is flat and green, creating a perfect space for outdoor living and gardening, while a short walk away, the forest begins to gently rise.

At the edge of the forest sits a delightful wooden cabin, offering one bedroom and one bathroom, ideal for guests, independent living, or even as a rental unit. From the main house’s front decking, you’ll be treated to stunning views of the sea, while the surrounding green fields and forest create a peaceful, idyllic atmosphere. The property offers endless possibilities for anyone looking to live off the land—whether for farming, gardening, or self-sustaining off-grid living.

Cortijo Esencia is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Its unique location in a protected valley, the character of the house, and the surrounding natural beauty make it an extraordinary place to live. Whether you dream of a peaceful escape, an off-grid lifestyle, or a sustainable homestead, this property offers the perfect setting to create your vision of living in harmony with nature. With no neighbors, no distractions, and an abundance of space and resources, Cortijo Esencia is a rare and exceptional retreat that invites you to disconnect and live authentically.
