An interesting house in a small hamlet just a short drive from Almayate village and the coast, requiring a certain amount of modernisation and with good outside space

Located in a sleepy little hamlet close to the coast, Casa Virginia is attached to a picturesque little church and is divided into two sections, with a central patio courtyard between the two,and a rear garden requiring renovation and development.

The gate from the road leads into the paved courtyard, an ideal place for outdoor dining, and with an additional patio to the front with trees.

House 1 consists of a hallway (3.5 x 3.25m) with a door to the right out to the garden, and a door to the left into the double bedroom (3.75 x 3.25m) with window to the street. Straight ahead, a short corridor (2.5 x 1m) leads into the kitchen/dining/living room, a spacious room with high sloping ceilings and a central feature fireplace. This room is 42m2, in an L shape, incorporating a fully fitted kitchen. There is a door to one side to a bathroom with shower unit (2 x 2m). It would be possible to convert the hallway into a large kitchen, and remove the current kitchen from the large living room. There is also potential to move the layout of the bedroom/bathroom.

The back door leads out to a large garden, currently unused except to store machinery and equipment and previously to house animals, but with huge potential to develop into a beautiful, very private outdoor area.

House 2 consists of a large living room (6 x 3m), with an office/sewing room to the left as one walks in (3 x 2.25m) which leads through to the bathroom (3 x 2.5m). To the right of the living room, a door leads into a large, fully fitted kitchen (4 x 5m plus ‘pantry’) with a door to the front patio. From here, stairs lead up to two bedrooms, one following on from the other (6 x 3.25m and 3 x 4m). This house has potential as a holiday let or ‘granny annexe’.

These two houses are both fully habitable, but may need a little modernisation to suit individual tastes and requirements.
