Full Description


Set on a plot of 10,000m² the 1965 constructed cortijo has had considerable financial investment in its reformation, development and modernisation to bring it to the level that it is at today.



Comprising several elements the single level property comes together with a total build size of almost 400m².



Entering the reception hall of the property with feature archway and ceiling beams your eyes are drawn to a room in the distance in a way that confirms this is no ordinary cortijo and that there literally is more to it than meets the eye.



The first of the aforementioned elements is the original cortijo that comprises a large L shaped living room with wood burning stove; dining room; fully fitted kitchen; master bedroom with en suite shower room; second double bedroom and a family bathroom with shower, toilet and basin.



Accessible from both the living room and the kitchen there is a large internal courtyard. With fly screen roof to part and covered terraces around, this inside-outside room offers further generous living space with a dining table and chairs and second living room area.



Also off the courtyard there is a two room annexe with a living room and bedroom; fourth bedroom; third bathroom with bath & shower over, toilet and basin; and staircase to the roof top solarium that benefits amazing 360° views.



Moving to the rear of the property there is a sun room looking out to the freeform swimming pool and external courtyard.



The courtyard and pool are shared with the one bedroom apartment that comprises an open plan lounge, diner and kitchen; double bedroom and bathroom with shower, bidet, toilet and basin.



The apartment can be used as an independent dwelling as it has its own access, patio area, log burning stove and even internet connection.



Externally the driveway with electrically operated gate wraps around two sides of the property bringing you to the double garage. The perimeter of the property and drive is fenced with gate access to the remainder of the 10,000m².



Currently the land to the rear of the property has a number of fruiting orange trees with the remainder no longer being harvested and could be cleared to utilise the space for perhaps horses or even replanted as a new fruiting orchard.



The property benefits mains electric and water, is presented to a high standard and furniture is negotiable.



Local amenities including a doctors surgery, chemist, bakery, Coviran supermarket, bars and a primary school can be found in the neighbouring village of San Francisco 2km away; four bars, petrol station and fire station in El Saltador; and the much larger town of Huércal-Overa with its award winning hospital is only 10km.



The property is situated in a rural / campo location but within 30 minutes you can be on the beach in San Juan de los Terreros, on the golf course in Jaravia or in a shopping mall in Lorca.



Airport transfers are easy due to the excellent road networks of the A7/E15 and the AP7 with travelling times to Almeria, Murcia and Alicante airports of 1, 1½ and 1¾ hours respectively.
