Description complète
This impressive detached country house, with a generous 279m² of living space spread over two floors, has been meticulously reformed to a high standard, retaining much of its original charm, including beamed ceilings, traditional doors, and feature fireplaces. The property exudes a light and airy feel, thanks to its exceptionally high ceilings and plentiful windows, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout.
Set on a vast 43,285m² plot adorned with almond, olive, and fig trees, the land is maintained by a local farmer in exchange for the produce, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of the land without the upkeep. The breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside make this home a perfect retreat for those seeking peace and tranquillity.
Located just a 20-minute drive from the bustling town of Albox, you’ll have easy access to all necessary amenities, including a 24-hour medical centre, supermarkets, bars, restaurants, and shops. The nearby village of Las Pocicas offers a shop for everyday essentials, a communal swimming pool, and an excellent restaurant. For beach lovers, the Mediterranean coast is a mere 50-minute drive away, and three airports—Almeria, Murcia, and Alicante—are within easy reach via well-connected motorways.
The property is accessed via a tarmac road followed by a 1.5km track leading to a gravel driveway and a large parking area with a 54m² garage. The front garden, designed for low maintenance with gravel, boasts outstanding views, providing a blank canvas for landscaping to your personal taste, whether that includes covered seating areas, fruit trees, or more. The 8x4m swimming pool, enclosed by a fly-free cover, offers a perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the serene surroundings, with additional seating and a BBQ area to the side of the house.
Inside, the home is equally impressive. Traditional double wooden doors open into a welcoming hallway. To the left, there's a versatile room currently used as an office, which could easily be converted into a fifth bedroom. Straight ahead, a large archway leads into the main lounge, featuring a traditional fireplace with a log burner for cosy winter nights, a ceiling fan for the summer, under-stair storage, and a separate storeroom. A staircase leads to the first floor, where you'll find a vast master suite with picture windows framing the stunning views, an en-suite bathroom, and an additional walk-in shower. There's also a guest bedroom and a shower room on this level.
Back in the hallway, to the right, you’ll find a separate dining room that leads into a spacious kitchen diner, complete with a log burning fireplace. A stable door from the kitchen provides access to the front garden, while a second lounge with a pellet burner, two double guest bedrooms, and a family bathroom complete this level. The house is fully equipped with mains water and electricity, internet connection, a backup water tank for the rare interruptions to the supply, and a reverse osmosis water filtration system. Ceiling fans, two log burners, and a pellet burner ensure comfort year-round.
This property is ideal for nature lovers and those looking for a fully refurbished country home with total privacy. Additionally, the double garage could easily and inexpensively be converted into a separate, independent guest annex if required, adding further potential to this already remarkable home.
