Full Description


This exquisite country house of 308m2 has been lovingly renovated to a VERY high standard and sits on a fully walled plot of 1004m2 in the hamlet of Fuente Amarga. The nearest bar-restaurant is just a 15-minute walk, and the local shops and bars in Santa Maria are a 5-8 minute drive, with the larger town of Huercal Overa reachable by car within 15 minutes for all additional amenities.
The access to the property is mostly tarmacked up to the last few hundred metres which is via the rambla.

Upon entering the property, immediately to the front and to the right is the main two-storey house, and to the left, the annexe which is currently used as a laundry/storeroom, but could easily be transformed into an additional en-suite guest room if required. To the right are fruit trees and the water deposit tank with pump near to the front boundary. Straight ahead, an arch gives pedestrian access to the rear of the plot where immediately to the left is a completely built-in pool bar/outdoor kitchen serving the expansive covered seating and dining area, which is fully enclosed with mosquito netting. This zone is perfect for alfresco dining, and overlooks the fully terraced 9x4m pool. The roof of the covered seating area is fitted with photovoltaic panels which feed back to the grid, keeping the monthly electricity costs down to a minimum. The pool is fitted with a heat pump and at the far end, you will find a small building incorporating a pool shower and WC with changing area between.

Back to the front of the house now, and the main entrance leads into a spacious entrance hall. This then gives access to the left to a cosy lounge, with woodburner and beyond, a double bedroom. Continuing through towards the rear of the house, at the bottom of the stairs is another open plan reception area with woodburner, which follows through to the right towards the kitchen at the far end of the property. From the reception area, two large bathrooms with 1.8m shower trays in each can be accessed, as well as an additional reading area, which again could easily be transformed into an additional bedroom if required. Beyond that is a second double bedroom at the front of the house. Finally, at the far end of the property is the huge brand new and modern kitchen with double thickness granite worktops and a large kitchen island/breakfast bar. An external door from the kitchen leads back out to the front of the house where, immediately to the left, a spiral staircase gives access to the first of two roof terraces, overlooking the surrounding countryside. To the left of the kitchen and up a step is the spacious utility room.

Moving upstairs, halfway, the staircase splits. To the right is an external door leading out onto the terraced seating area around the pool. To the left, a few additional steps give access to the large lounge with a feature fireplace. Beyond you will find another two double bedrooms. One of the bedrooms leads to a dressing room (which again, could be transformed into an additional bedroom if required), and beyond another bathroom with a freestanding bath, and a large shower tray. Leaving the house in the direction of the pool area, immediately to the right, an outside staircase gives access to another roof terrace overlooking the pool.

The entire property has been underpinned, and all wiring and plumbing replaced. All of the walls have been damp proofed on the ground floor, and classic traditional terracotta tiles have been laid on the floors throughout. The renovations have been done to a very high standard meaning this property really needs nothing more done to it. A truly exquisite property that needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Furniture is negotiable.
