Imagine waking up every morning to the soft light of the Almería countryside, stepping out for a coffee and gazing at your own estate, with olive and almond trees stretching to the horizon, surrounded only by peace and open skies.

This beautiful reformed country house is presented, located in the peaceful area of La Perulera, Huércal-Overa, offering a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the relaxed Spanish rural lifestyle, with easy access to local amenities, towns, and the coast. Set on an impressive plot of approximately 1 hectare, the property combines traditional character with modern comforts and practical features that make it equally appealing as a permanent family home, a private retreat, or a potential rural accommodation/studio business, subject to the relevant permits.

Space, character and endless possibilities

The property offers approximately 326 m² of living space, with 4 or 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, providing ample room for the family and guests. As you approach, a private driveway leads to the house, with ample parking and a pleasant sense of arrival. The surrounding land, planted with olive and almond trees, gives the property an authentic rural atmosphere and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy.

The heart of the home is bright, spacious, and welcoming.

Traditional elements blend perfectly with contemporary improvements, creating a home that preserves the charm of a Spanish cortijo while also offering the comforts of modern life. On the ground floor, there are several living areas, including a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cool winter evenings. The modern kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and provides a practical space for everyday family living. There is also a modern guest bathroom with a walk-in shower, a modern sink, and a Japanese-style toilet, as well as a utility room, a garage, and a covered terrace. On the upper floor, a second living area offers greater flexibility and could become an excellent family room, office, or guest lounge. There are two guest bedrooms, as well as a spacious master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.

Private pool and outdoor space

It is outdoors where this property comes to life. The spacious swimming pool is in a privileged location with views over the surrounding countryside, creating a wonderful place to enjoy long summer days swimming, relaxing, and sharing moments with family and friends. A covered outdoor shower is conveniently located next to the pool, while the large covered terrace, with its attractive wooden beams, offers a shaded and welcoming space to dine outdoors, enjoy breakfast, or have a drink at sunset while taking in the changing colors of the landscape.

There is also a barbecue area, ideal for enjoying relaxed meals with friends. A practical storage room next to the outdoor area could be transformed into an outdoor kitchen, creating an exceptional space for entertaining guests during the warmer months.

Practical features for comfortable living in the countryside

Although it is set in a charming rural environment, the property is not isolated from the power grid or essential services. The house has mains electricity and potable water connection, providing the peace of mind and comfort of having all basic services. For added peace of mind, it has a recently installed solar system with 10 panels, improving the property’s energy efficiency and reducing dependence on the electricity grid.

In addition, the property has an impressive 15,000-liter water storage tank for emergency reserves, providing excellent water supply, together with access to irrigation water for the land and trees. This combination is especially valuable for those who want to maintain the gardens, olive trees, almond trees, or expand the planting. It also has high-speed internet and an alarm system, allowing you to combine the tranquility of rural life with teleworking or running a business.

Easy access without losing the rural setting

Despite its peaceful location, access to the property is straightforward. You reach it via a good paved road, and the last kilometer, approximately, runs along a well-maintained track. This gives you the best of both worlds: the privacy and calm of a true rural environment without being completely isolated. The nearest bar is about a 4-minute drive away, or around 30 minutes on foot (2.1 km), a pleasant local option for having a coffee, a drink, or a meal. For shopping, restaurants, schools, and other services, Huércal-Overa is about a 10-minute drive away, while Albox is around 18 minutes. And if you feel like going to the sea, the beautiful coastal towns in the Almería region are about 40 minutes away.

A home to live in, enjoy, and possibly share.

This property has a special charm: it offers spaciousness without sacrificing comfort, rural tranquility without being isolated, and traditional Spanish character combined with modern, practical improvements.

Whether you dream of creating a peaceful family home, escaping to the Spanish countryside, enjoying a more self-sufficient lifestyle, or setting up a small tourist accommodation business, this property offers a multitude of possibilities. With its spacious plot, centuries-old olive and almond trees, private pool, panoramic views, spacious rooms, running water and electricity, 10 solar panels, a significant 15,000-liter water reserve, irrigation water, internet, and good access, it is far more than just a country house.
