Villa for sale in Arboleas, Almería

The property enjoys a peaceful setting just a couple of minutes by car from the village of Arboleas, or approximately a 15-20 minute walk, offering an excellent balance of tranquillity and convenience.

Beautifully refurbished & ready to enjoy

Originally constructed by Lakes Vega, one of the area's most highly regarded builders, the villa has undergone an impressive refurbishment, creating a fresh, stylish and contemporary home.

Bright, light and airy throughout, the interior features crisp white doors, light flooring and a neutral colour palette, while carefully retained architectural details preserve the property's Mediterranean charm.

The main villa provides approximately 106m² of living accommodation, complemented by an impressive 26m² covered naya, which effectively extends the living space outdoors.

Private 663m² plot

Set within a fully walled 663m² plot, the property offers excellent privacy.

Double electric entrance gates open onto a carport with off-road parking for two vehicles, while a separate pedestrian entrance provides additional convenience.

The attractive front gardens are laid predominantly to gravel for easy maintenance and beautifully landscaped with established Mediterranean plants, trees and shrubs. A paved seating area provides the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning coffee.

Both sides of the villa are gated, ensuring the rear gardens and swimming pool area remain wonderfully private. There is also independent access to the studio apartment, making it ideal for visiting family and friends.

Exceptional outdoor living

Outdoor living is at the heart of this property.

To the rear of the villa is a magnificent 26m² covered naya with traditional Moorish-style arches, accessed directly from the kitchen, lounge and master bedroom.

This generous shaded terrace creates a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living and provides an idyllic setting for relaxing, dining and entertaining while overlooking the pool and from which you can enjoy beautiful far-reaching mountain views, while a colourful raised Mediterranean planting bed adds year-round colour and interest to the outdoor space.

A retractable awning outside the kitchen provides additional shade during the warmer summer evenings, while a further seating and dining area outside the lounge and master bedroom features an outdoor television and dartboard — perfect for entertaining.

Impressive 10 x 5m swimming pool

Steps at either end of the upper terrace lead down to the fabulous pool area, where the centrepiece is a larger-than-average 10 x 5m swimming pool.

The pool is surrounded by an extensive tiled sun terrace offering plenty of space for sun loungers and relaxation.

To one side is a covered pergola providing welcome shade during long summer days and evenings. On the opposite side is a dedicated BBQ and outdoor kitchen area with a sink and its own boiler housed in the adjoining storeroom which is also equipped with storage cupboards, fridges and freezers — ideal for keeping refreshments close at hand.

Attractive border planting and a poolside bistro area complete this superb private entertaining space.

Stylish self-contained studio apartment

Accessed via a staircase from the main terrace, the beautifully presented studio apartment enjoys its own private terrace with mountain views.

Double doors with fly screens open into 38m² of bright, contemporary open-plan accommodation.

The apartment incorporates a fully fitted kitchen with appliances, dining area, comfortable lounge with UK television, a beautifully appointed sleeping area and a modern en-suite shower room.

Finished to the same high standard as the main villa, it also benefits from hot and cold air conditioning and ceiling fans plus access to wifi.

Completely self-contained and with independent access, this is a wonderful private retreat for visiting family and friends.

Contemporary main villa

The front door opens into a welcoming hallway providing access to two generous double guest bedrooms, a stylish family shower room and the master suite.

The master bedroom features fitted wardrobes, a private en-suite bathroom and double doors opening directly onto the covered naya.

All three bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes and ceiling fans, while hot and cold air conditioning is installed throughout the villa and has been annually serviced.

Double doors from the hallway open into the spacious lounge and dining room, where further doors connect directly with the covered terrace. A feature fireplace with log-burning stove creates an inviting focal point for the cooler winter evenings.

One of the distinctive features associated with Lakes Vega properties is the decorative border tiling within the living room. Together with the Moorish arches of the naya, this adds subtle traditional character while complementing the home's contemporary finish.

A wide archway connects the dining area with the fully fitted modern kitchen, which offers Silestone worktops, extensive high- and low-level storage and all appliances.
