| An Englishman´s home in Granada Fancy an Englishman's home near this castle? The slopes and the Costa are both within striking distance of this ancient town, writes Nicola Venning of the Daily Telegraph
If you like to mix café society with your aprés ski and enjoy red runs as much as red wine in a good restaurant, then a home in Granada, southern Spain, could be for you.
With budget airlines flying regularly to Granada, this astonishing medieval city, which is home to the historic Alhambra palace, has never been more accessible or alluring.
If you would like to be close to the slopes, you might like to consider a home in one of the pretty little villages en route to the ski station, such as Monachil, which is about half way between city and resort.
The village has shops, restaurants and a school – and is only 20 minutes from Granada and all its nightlife as well as 20 minutes from the skiing."
When houses do become available in the resort, they tend to be very expensive usually selling for between £200,000 to £420,000 for a fairly basic two or three-bed house. It is almost impossible now to obtain planning permission to build new houses up there.
The villages of Monachil and Huerta Vega, offer a much more attractive proposition. With investments starting from as little as £68,000! Contact us, to find out more......... More... |
