v3180, Castilléjar, Granada

Gorgeous Three renovated cave houses set together on one plot in Castillejar, Granada, just outside the village. The whole plot comes to about 2,000 m², and you can walk from the property straight into the village, and also down to the Castillejar swimming pool, so you don’t need a car for the basics.

Each of the three caves is around 100 m² and has 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen and an open-plan living room. A lot of people think of cave houses as small and dark, but these aren’t that in some of them the bedrooms are built over two levels, which lets light pour in from above, so the rooms feel properly open and bright, not like a cave at all once you’re inside.

Above the caves there are several terraces, so you get separate outdoor spaces at different points around the property rather than just one patio — good for morning coffee in one spot and evening drinks somewhere else with a view. There’s a barbecue area set up outside as well, and a fountain, which gives the whole outdoor space a nice feel, especially in summer. The land doesn’t stop at the caves either. There’s more ground below them, so there’s real room to work with if you want gardens, a vegetable patch, extra seating areas, whatever you want to do with it.

On top of the three caves, the plot also includes 3 garages. Right now they’re just garages, but they’ve got real potential to be converted into separate houses or guest units, which would basically let you double the number of usable buildings on the plot without buying more land.

The property has a great amount of parking. And there’s still enough open land left over that you could put in a swimming pool if you wanted one, without it feeling cramped.

Because of the size, the layout, and the fact that you can walk to both the village and the pool, this property would make a lot of sense as a small rural hotel, a holiday rental setup, or a guesthouse.

It’s a rare setup: three finished, livable cave houses together on a single generous plot, in a walkable village location, with obvious room to grow. Properties like this don’t come up often in this condition.
