Description
This detached country house has a whopping 279m of living space over two floors and has been fully reformed to a high standard retaining many of the original features including beamed ceilings, doors, fireplaces etc. It is very light and airy because of the extremely high ceilings and lots of windows. It sits on a plot of 43,285m with almond, olive and fig trees which the local farmer maintains for the current owners and is paid in return with the produce that is harvested. The views from the property of the surrounding countryside are breathtaking and the location is ideal for those looking for peace and tranquillity.
The location is 20 minutes drive from the town of Albox which has all of the amenities you would expect of a large working town including a 24 hour medical centre, supermarkets, bars and restaurants, shops etc. The closest village, Las Pocicas has a shop for everyday items, a communal swimming pool and an excellent restaurant. The Med coast is an easy 50 minutes drive and there are three airports within easy commute via excellent motorway connections, Almeria, Murcia and Alicante.
Access is from a tarmac road onto a track of approximately 1.5km. A gravel driveway then leads to a large parking area and to a 54m garage. There is also a utility room and housing for a water filtration system. This imposing property has the most outstanding views from the front garden which is laid to gravel for ease of maintenance, It is currently a holiday home and so the gardens are a blank canvas for someone to landscape to their own requirements with covered seating, fruit trees etc, There is an 8 x 4 swimming pool which is covered with a fly free enclosure and to the side of the house seating and BBQ area.
The house itself has 279m of living space over two floors. Double height imposing traditional wooden double doors lead into the hallway. Off to the left is a room currently used as an office but which could easily be used as a 5th bedroom. Through an archway in front of you in the hallway a large archway leads through to the main lounge which has a traditional feature fireplace with a log burning fire for the winter months and ceiling fan for the summer. There is an under stair storage space and a separate store room and then stairs lead to the first floor. Here there is a huge master suite with picture windows looking out on the views and which has an en suite bathroom with additional walk in shower. There is a further guest bedroom and a shower room. Back in the hall and off to the right is access to a separate dining room which then leads to a spacious kitchen diner with a log burning fireplace. From the kitchen a stable door leads back out to the front garden. Off the kitchen is access to a second lounge with a pellet burning fire and a single access door out to the side of the property, two double guest bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Mains water and electricity are connected as is internet. There is a back up water tank for the rare occasion that there may be an interruption to the water supply, reverse osmosis water filtration system, ceiling fans, two log burners and a pellet burner.
This is an ideal property for nature lovers and those looking for a fully refurbished country home with complete privacy. The double garage could also quite easily and inexpensively be converted into a separate independent guest annexe if required.
