Description

This impressive detached country house, with a generous 279m 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 43,285m 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 54m 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.

Interested in this property? Don't lose out to currency fluctuations changing the price you pay...

Many overseas buyers in Spain do not realise they can lose thousands of pounds through adverse currency exchange rate movements.

The property buying process in Spain takes time; it could be up to six months between seeing the property of your dreams and actually taking ownership. So how much would this €345,000 property cost you?

Property Price € Minimum cost in the last six months Maximum cost in the last six months Fluctuating exchange rates over the last six months could have increased the cost of this property by

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Spain will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £10,743 more.
