Country house in Las Norias, Huercal-Overa

Cortijo Cece is a five-bedroom, two-bathroom country house full of character, set on 27,049 m² of mostly flat land arranged over several large terraces. The grounds include an 8m x 4m swimming pool surrounded by palm trees, a car port, a storage room and fenced paddocks, making this an ideal family home, holiday retreat or equestrian property. Mains electricity is connected and the property has its own natural water well.
