Cortijo Canada HondaCortijo (Country House) Canada Honda (Deep Glen)So, literally translated Deep Glen, Country House This is a unique property and offers a fantastic opportunity to live the dream and at the same time have a substantial income. Set in nearly 18 acres of land, mostly covered with pine trees, Cortijo Canada Honda is perfectly situated in the centre of the Alti Plano in the north east of the province of Granada. No traffic jams, clear mountain air, fantastic scenery, over 300 days of sunshine each year, some of friendliest people you are ever likely to meet and only 90 minutes to the beaches of Almeria and Murcia. In February 2008 for insurance purposes, the property was valued by R.T.A. Europe at 849,950 euro. Due to the global recession the owners took a very realistic view as to the current asking price, which is 695000 euro (recently reduced from 775,000), which represents outstanding value for a property of this size and potential. The Rental Caves will be sold fully furnished (included in the asking price) The original Cortijo (which was once famous for breeding Andalucian horses) has been divided into 2 spacious properties. For ease of identification we will call them House 1 and House 2. Both houses have three bedrooms (all ensuite) and house1 has a study/office/4th bedroom. The 2 main houses have telephone and broadband internet connection and the water supply to the property is from its own well containing approx. 20000 litres, which is served by an underground river. House 1 has a very large kitchen, separate dining area, a beautiful lounge, large study/office or 4th bedroom and 2 other bedrooms on the ground floor. All rooms feature the original beams and great care has been taken to preserve the character of the buildings whilst still providing all the conveniences of modern living. The master bedroom (on the first floor) is enormous and features a large ensuite bathroom and a balcony with views over the valley of El Margen to the Sierras de Baza. There is a separate double glazed door leading to the first floor sun terrace, again with views over the El Margen valley to the Sierras De Baza and a southeast facing double glazed window. All ground floor doors and the door leading to the sun terrace from bedroom 1 in house 1, feature concertina security grills. House 2 is very similar with the exception that there is no study/office/4th bedroom and the living area is slightly smaller. The first floor bedroom again features a large ensuite bathroom and balcony. It should be noted that although from the outside this property looks like a conventional building, it is in fact a Cave House. All rooms have been built into the hillside and maintain a fairly constant temperature all year round of approx 17 degrees centigrade. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter. There is no need for air conditioning or central heating in this property as it faces south east to take advantage of the morning sun, whilst providing ample shade during the hot afternoons. Outside the 2 main houses is a large covered terrace measuring 30mtrs x 4 mtrs making an ideal area for al fresco dining. Leading from the terrace is a large paved area in the centre of which is the 10 metre x 5 metre swimming pool. The pool is heated by 8 solar panels giving water temperatures of between 25 and 30 degrees centigrade from May to October, there is also a winter and summer cover. Surrounding the paved area is the garden, containing many shrubs and trees. There is also garden lighting and a honeysuckle covered pergola. The whole area is surrounded by balustrading ensuring a great degree of privacy. To the east of the Cortijo but separate from it, there are 3 stunning Cave Houses (casas cuevas) available for short, medium or long term rent, providing a substantial income (over 10000 euro in 2008) currently advertised on 3 holiday web sites. To the west of the Cortijo and again separate from it, is The Curry Cave Restaurant as featured on the BBC???s ???Living In the Sun??? programme. The income from the restaurant was just over 6,000 euro net, August 2007 to July 2008 opening just 3 nights per week. The restaurant is currently closed due to the owners pursuing other business interests, however it can be seen, that considerable potential exists to increase the income from the restaurant, which is sold fully equipped. Alternatively the restaurant could easily be converted back to a luxury 2 bedroom rental cave. The current owners have successfully operated the business of 3 rental caves and a small restaurant while using the 2 main houses for family accommodation. The whole property could easily be converted in to a large B&B or small hotel and there is a definite possibility that planning permission could be obtained for a touring caravan park on some of land. The properties location would also make it ideal for use as an animal sanctuary, garden centre, equestrian centre, activity holidays centre or with minimal conversion it could be a very nice care home of which there is a growing need in Spain. The rental side of business benefits from its own website which would be transferred to the new owners.

All the cave houses were completed in July 2006 and are to a very high standard with extremely spacious accommodation. Parking is right outside the caves which are reached by a separate road, and there are no steps to negotiate. There is a patio area outside each cave house, a barbeque area and private garden. Each house is equipped with a log burning stove, radiators, satellite TV, rustic style furniture, washing machine, fridge, microwave, 4 ring hob, oven, patio furniture etc. Restaurant To the west of house 1, but separated by a large paved area and a high wall, is the unique Cave Restaurant. The current owners operated this as The Curry Cave until Sept 08 when other business interests demanded more of their time, together with the fact that their son and family decided to return to the UK for personal reasons. An enclosed courtyard measuring 10.9mtrs x 7mtrs has views over the El Margen Valley to the Sierra de Bazas.There are 2 metal gazebos with detachable covers, providing shade for al fresco dining in the summer months and there is a quantity of plastic tables and chairs included in the sale. From the courtyard the main doorway (with window to one side) opens on to an entrance hall 4.7mtrs x 2.05mtrs max. In the entrance hall are 2 doors leading to the men???s and ladies toilets both of which are approx 1.95mtrs x 1.5mtrs and each features an inset wash basin with cupboard under and WC. There are swing doors leading to the kitchen. Kitchen: The kitchen, 3.10mtrs x 3mtrs, contains a marble top prep area with cupboards under, stainless steel double sink unit, deep fat fryer, industrial microwave, electric hot water heater, extractor fan and a 6 burner, large oven and industrial gas cooker. The double window opens on to the courtyard. From the kitchen a doorway leads to the storage room, 6.2mtrs x 2.0mtrs max, which contains a large industrial stainless steel fridge unit, large freezer, stainless steel shelving and drinks cooler. From the storage room a doorway leads to the garage. Main Room: The main room of the restaurant opens up from the entrance hall and measures 9.8mtrs x 3.3mtrs with the original beamed ceiling. The side room (off the main room) is 5.4mtrs x 2.85mtrs. There is a storage cupboard in each room, plenty of power points and Andalucian style wall lights. Both rooms feature an air vent and there is a chimney in the main room which can be used to accommodate a wood burner. Wood tables and chairs are included in the sale together with all kitchen equipment and tableware. The restaurant is capable of seating 34 with a further 20 or so outside during the summer months. It would be relatively easy to create a further room thereby expanding the seating capacity or creating a bar area. There is parking for approx 6 vehicles adjacent to the restaurant with further parking available at the bottom of the drive which is approx 30 mtrs away. There are double wrought iron gates at the top of the drive which can be closed when the restaurant is not open to provide complete privacy to the whole property. Alternatively the restaurant, as it now stands, could very easily be converted in to a luxury 2 bedroom cave house which would command a rent of approx 400 euro per week.

NEWLY PRICED AT $4,300,000 for 1.45+/- acre compound with main home, 2 guest houses, and a treehouse office with bedroom! The 1.45+/- acre Ocean Apple Estate is set upon 200 breathtaking feet fronting the Atlantic Ocean. The History of Ocean Apple Estate Capturing picturesque oceanfront vistas, tucked away in tropical seclusion, this vintage jewel is a much-admired local landmark designed and built in 1935 by renowned Palm Beach society architect John Volk. Volk was born in Graz, Austria, and received architectural degrees from Columbia University and the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Volk's residential clients included the families of Vanderbilt, DuPont, Ford, Dodge, and Pulitzer. Volk was known for his versatility and great sense of proportion. His love of a light, airy, gracious style is apparent in so many of his creations, particularly in Ocean Apple Estate. Volk designs have the distinct quality of propriety. One notices the lives lived in his homes, no matter how grand, rather than just the home itself. This was his true genius. This gift was never more profound as reflected in the Ocean Apple Estate compound Volk was commissioned to create for Fontaine Fox. Fox was a famous cartoonist best known for writing and illustrating the Toonerville Folks comic strip that appeared from 1913 to 1955 in over 300 newspapers across North America. The strip was about a small-town, which seemed to operate in its own little universe, and the gentle humor dealt with the antics of various semi-realistic situations. It was one of the most popular comics in the World War I era. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fontaine_Fox Walking through the home, guest cottages and around the expansive grounds one feels what Fontaine Fox must have experienced when drawing upon the deep creativity inherent to such a serene setting. Fox later sold the estate to The Mott family, known for Mott's Apple Sauce and other apple based products. Hence the name, Ocean Apple Estate. The Mott family owned the estate for a generation. Ocean Apple has been owned by Frank and Nilsa McKinney since 1997 who recently masterfully restored it to its original grandeur. The Grounds and Residence Listed on the local Historic Register and featured in numerous architectural publications, the captivating oceanfront compound presides over a rare 1.45+/- acre tropical enclave. Massive, mature gumbo-limbo trees, 75 year-old sea grape trees and oversized rubber trees enhance this untamed oasis. The grounds feature a butterfly path and walking garden that serpentines through jungle-like flora and fauna. The property features expansive authentic tropical hardwood decks and terraces with a lovely swimming pool, sunken spa and exercise sauna. With 200 feet fronting the Atlantic Ocean and 340 feet in depth, the distinguished property represents the rarest of oceanfront compounds. Significant expansion, renovation or development could be pursued. Replete with vintage South Florida charm, the inviting home is appointed with Florida cypress walls and ceilings and Dade County pine floors. The compound, consisting of the main house and two charming Guest Cottages, contains a total of 5,423+/- square feet with 7 bedrooms, 7.5 baths and a separate 2-car garage and storage building. The Guest Houses provide a total of 4 bedrooms and 4 baths. Ocean Apple has a unique and separate Treehouse Office with a Bedroom loft. The Treehouse has a spectacular ocean view out of 12 well positioned windows. It also has a shower, bathroom, sink, air-conditioning, hardwood floors, cedar walls, a bamboo desk, loft with a king size bed and a flat screen TV, and suspension bridge that connects to the master bedroom of the main house. The Living Room of Ocean Apple's main home opens through French doors to authentic tropical hardwood Decks overlooking the pool and tropical gardens. Complete with a wet bar, the Dining Room opens to a delightful Veranda for outdoor dining. The fully equipped kitchen adjoins a Florida Room with wood-burning fireplace. The 2nd level Master Bedroom Suite commands full ocean vista and features a private Bath, walk-in Closets and private tropical hardwood Balcony with suspension bridge to the Treehouse Office and Bedroom mentioned above. Location: About Delray Beach Ocean Apple enjoys a prime oceanfront location in the Estate Section of historic Delray Beach, a beautifully preserved oceanfront enclave situated between Palm Beach and Boca Raton. Nearby Atlantic Avenue is famous for its fine village shopping and gourmet dining. Delray Beach has received the All-America City award twice by the National Civic League (only city in the state of Florida to win twice) and voted as having the best beach in the Southeast United States by Travel and Leisure magazine.
