Famed poet's house for sale in Nerja

ON the 84th anniversary of the death of the Granada-born poet Federico García Lorca, three of the writer’s nieces have decided to put up for sale what was the author’s summer residence in the town of Nerja.

The house measures 300 square metres, has an orchard of another 1,300 and is located in the centre of the Andalucian town, on Calle Hernando de Carabeo, close to the famous Balcón de Europa.
The author of ‘Bodas de Sangre’ spent some summers on this property in the 20’s and 30’s of the last century.
The three nieces, daughters of his brother Francisco, are the owners of this property that is more than 100 years old and overlooks the cliffs of the town. They decided to put the property up for sale two months ago with a starting price of €3 million. According to the advertisement “Casa Lorca is, possibly, one of the most historic houses in Nerja.”
