The Finca Project – Part 1

My brother and his wife already have one great house in Fortuna, Murcia, Spain, but they have been on the look out for new possibilities for a while, and in the summer they bought a new place.  It is an old wrecked Finca (Spanish Farm) with one other wrecked building on the grounds, and 9 acres of land, mostly with Olive and Almond trees.

The two times I was in Spain in December/January I visited the property, it has beautiful views as you can see below, in does have lots and lots of trees on the land at the moment, and has some great features in the old farmhouse.  It has beautiful traditional Spanish beams, old vats used for olive and/or wine pressing, and some of the rooms make up a ‘cave-house’ that is typical of the area of Spain.

So I intend on recording the stages of renovation in pictures, even though it might take several years.
