A lovely traditional reformed Cortijo for sale.
3 Bedroom, 2 bathroom (1 En suite) Cortijo with small plot of land and large splash pool. The house had new plumbing and wiring fitted in 2004 and has a registered Escritura. There are electric radiators in the bedrooms and bathrooms and an air-conditioning/heating unit in the main living area.
The house is approximately 60 years old and has been tastefully and professionally reformed to provide a warm, welcoming home.
It has a large lounge/dining area with a fitted log burner to provide heating. There are exposed beams on the ceiling, part tiled walls and the room has been decorated in a pale peach colour.
There is a fitted kitchen at one end of the room complete with extensive surfaces for food preparation and cooking. All appliances are to be included in the sale.
There are two double bedrooms downstairs, the master is en suite and faces south, the other has part traditional tiled walls. Both have been tastefully decorated, with exposed beams on the ceilings. The third double bedroom / study is accessed via an external spiral staircase, which also gives access to the 55 + sq. m roof terrace with spectacular views up and down the Almanzora valley.
Outside, there is a covered terrace by the main entrance with a wooden pergola leading off it, offering the possibility of alfresco dining.
There is a small courtyard area at the front of the property that faces south and is gravelled.
At the rear of the property, there is a large, marble paved terrace that overlooks the citrus groves and mountains opposite.
There are steps leading down to the separate garden area. This has several pomegranate trees, a grapevine, small kitchen garden and a very private, large (4x3m) splash pool (ideal for those hot summer days!).
Under the vine, there is a gravelled area and a stone seat to provide welcome, summer shade.
There may also be the possibility of buying more land from the Spanish owner who lives nearby.
The house is accessed via a short, communal track from the main road. It is within easy walking distance of the village of Cantoria, which has many bars, several small supermarkets, a range of other shops and a medical centre.
Cantoria is a short distance by car from Albox, the main town, which has many more shops, two large supermarkets, a large medical centre with an emergency room and a wide range of English shops/businesses.
Huercal Overa (25min away) is the provincial capital and home to one of the best hospitals in Europe.
The main motorway (E15/A7) is only 20 min away and gives access to all the main cities in this part of Spain, as well as connecting with main motorway routes to the rest of Spain, up to France and across to Portugal.
The climate in this part of Spain is renowned as being the hottest, driest area of Spain, with more hours of sunshine than any other province.
There are ferries from Almeria to North Africa and airports with cheap flights to the UK and elsewhere within 1-2 hours drive (Almeria/Murcia/Alicante/Granada).
The house is in excellent condition and offers the possibility of permanent living or it would also be suitable as a holiday home.
It is surrounded by beautiful countryside, suitable areas for hikers, mountain bikers, horse riders, bird watchers etc.
The town of Baza is approx. a 1 hour drive away and this area has a huge man made reservoir with water activities, bars and a natural hot spa.
The sky above the house is a sight to behold at night and the Milky Way is clearly visible for most of the year because there is virtually no light pollution.
There are two large shopping malls within an hours drive and several smaller ones closer than that.
A new high-speed rail link is planned for the near future, with a station in Vera (25min drive) that will offer the opportunity to travel to Madrid easily and quickly.
