From this cosy lounge is the first of the two bedrooms, with window to the front of the property

Up a step to the lovely new ground floor bedroom en-suite, with a window to the garden, comfy bed and beautiful new bathroom with pretty tiles, there is also a door that leads to the private patio, perfect to enjoy your morning coffee.

Up the original old stairs leads you to the living spaces, a brand new bespoke kitchen with porcelain worktops and views to the sierras from the window, the light from the sunrises floods the kitchen with low level units for a feeling of light and space, this sunny kitchen has a fantastic high ceiling. From the hallway you have a full family bathroom with eco heater.

From the kitchen you have a few steps up to the sitting room, overlooking the patio, with large open patio window for light and a view of the patio.
Up again to the terrace with amazing views of the village and sierras, make sure you at least see one sunrise here!

The outside space is private and perfect for dining, sunbathing (there is a bed and recline chair under the stairs) and of course you have the fabulous Bougnavilla to sit under, there is a stone bench perfect for your morning cuppa, unfortunately the large lemon tree had to be removed recently, but we have replaced it with a small one, hopefully over the years she will grow bigger !

This house is perfectly equipped for holiday use, if you wish to stay longer than 2 weeks please give as much notice as possible, we may know of other places if our house is rented....Zoe also has another house if you are a family of 4-7 people just up the road! Please remember as we are close we can help with anything from where to buy your milk and bread, to helping if you need something from the well stocked pharmacy! We are here to help, and have lived in Olvera for over 20 years !

Please note this is a working white village , people go to work , children go to school and go past the house with their school bags, the gas man goes past in the afternoon crashing gas canisters and beeping as he goes, the breadman comes and parks outside at 8.30 am and beeps his horn, to allow all the neighbours to know he’s arrived with his fresh local bread (it’s fine to go out in your pjs to get fresh bread like the locals)
The bin truck goes past around 10-12pm every night, (you can hang your bin bags on the railings) please take note of the recycling nights) there are bins in the kitchen for recycling. The brown bin is for food waste and the green bin is for plastics or cardboard. Please note the magnet on the fridge for collection days. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me!

* Sometimes things get broken, that’s ok - just let me know - if something is broken on arrival please let me know asap so you don’t get charged for it.

* Please do not leave heaters on when you go out - or cover any with anything! It’s a fire hazard and dangerous for all.

The house has very good accessibility. You can usually park around the house, and if you can't there is plenty of parking close by, in Calle Almeria and Calle Francia - The Spanish don't mind if you park outside in the middle of the road, drop off anything / and or shopping or bags then move on to the nearest parking space. It’s normal so please don’t worry - they will honk if you’ve been too long, so just give them a smile and wave 👋🏼

* Please note parking is first come first served, don’t park in-front of anyone’s doors or indeed on the yellow lines and you’ll be fine!
* Parking in Calle Francia changes the side of the road on the 1st of the month so be careful you don’t get a ticket on the 1st if you park there!

Where you’ll be

Olvera, Andalusia, Spain

I love that when you wake up in Lemon Tree you can hear the birds singing, although you are in the middle of town, its lovely to hear the birds from the hill behind, I love that feeling of being in the countryside but in the heart of the village.
No-where is far to walk from Lemon Tree, and you have a number of great shops and restaurants within easy access.
The breadman delivers fresh bread outside the door nearly every morning at 8.30am
There are small shops close and two wonderful cake shops within a easy walk.

My love affair with Spain started when I spent some time as an au-pair in my teens. After having a awful experience, being rescued from the family by a old family friend and taken to Marbella, I spent the next few years trying to get back to Spain. In 2002 I finally sold my house in Wales, bought a VW camper packed the kids in and set off for Spain. After a few months searching (and making a few mistakes!) I found Olvera. After driving through stunning sunflower fields to Olvera, I was dragged round by umpteen people and shown in the blistering June heat 9 houses. I couldn't remember what we'd seen, but decided to go with the first house I saw (maybe the only one remembered?!) Since that first home in Olvera, I have bought and renovated houses in Olvera and Pruna and continue's to love the area and the people here. Everybody is so friendly and welcoming! My love of old houses, architecture and photography are evident in how many photos I take of the area, I'm always discovering or visiting new delights, I now own the local estate agents in the town and my dedication to my clients, neighbours, family and friends is evident throughout the town I have made my second home. I love Olvera, I now divide my time between Olvera and Wales, I love to travel (And still in a VW camper!) to lovely homes or hotels and love discovering new places. In April 2021 after 14 months of not being able to travel, I bought and renovated a little stone cottage in North Wales, I've always wanted to be by the Mountains and Sea and Trefor is perfect! Its just under 2 hours drive from my home in Mid Wales, and right next to Snowdonia, where I love to be as much as possible hiking up mountains, My Favourite being Tryfan and the Ogwen Valley.
