This beautifully reformed country house is tucked away in the tranquil area of La Perulera, Huércal-Overa, offering a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the relaxed Spanish countryside lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of local amenities, towns and the coast. Set on an impressive approximately 1-hectare plot, 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 B&B/guest accommodation business, subject to the relevant permissions.

Space, character & endless possibilities

The property itself offers approximately 326 m² of accommodation, with 4/5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, providing generous space for family and guests.

As you approach, a private driveway leads to the house, with plenty of parking and a wonderful sense of arrival. The surrounding land, planted with olive and almond trees, gives the property a genuine country atmosphere and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. The heart of the home is bright, spacious and welcoming. Traditional features blend beautifully with contemporary improvements, creating a home that retains the charm of a Spanish cortijo while offering the comforts expected for modern living. On the ground floor, there are several living areas, including a cosy lounge with a wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cooler winter evenings. The modern kitchen is fitted with contemporary appliances and provides a practical space for everyday family life. There is also a modern guest shower room with a walk-in shower, modern basin and Japanese-style toilet, together with a utility room, garage and covered terrace.

Upstairs, a second living area provides additional flexibility and could make an excellent family room, office or guest lounge. There are two guest bedrooms, together with a spacious master bedroom featuring its own en-suite bathroom.

Your own private pool & outdoor living

Outside is where this property truly comes alive.

The generous swimming pool sits in a privileged position overlooking the surrounding countryside, creating a wonderful place to spend long summer days swimming, relaxing and entertaining family and friends.

A covered outdoor shower is conveniently located beside the pool, while the large covered terrace, with its attractive wooden beams, provides a shady and inviting space for outdoor dining, morning breakfasts or evening drinks while watching the changing colours across the landscape.

There is also a BBQ area, ideal for enjoying relaxed meals with friends. A useful storage room beside the outdoor area could potentially be transformed into an outdoor kitchen, creating an exceptional entertaining space for the warmer months.

Practical features for comfortable country living

Although wonderfully rural, the property is not off-grid or isolated from essential services.

The house benefits from mains electricity and mains water connected, providing the reassurance and convenience of established utilities. Adding further peace of mind is a recently installed solar system with 10 solar panels, helping to improve the property’s energy efficiency and reduce reliance on the grid.

The property also has an impressive 15,000-litre backup water deposit, providing an excellent reserve of water, together with access to irrigation water for the land and trees. This combination is particularly valuable for anyone wanting to maintain the gardens, olive trees and almond trees or develop additional planting.

There is also high-speed internet and an alarm system, making it perfectly possible to combine peaceful country living with working from home or running a business.

Easy access without losing the rural setting

Despite its peaceful position, getting to the property is straightforward. Access is via a good asphalt road, with only the final approximately 1 kilometre along a good, well-maintained track.

This gives you the best of both worlds: the privacy and tranquillity of a genuine countryside setting without being completely cut off from the surrounding area.

The nearest bar is approximately 4 minutes by car, or around a 30-minute walk (2.1 km), providing a pleasant local option for a coffee, drink or meal. For everyday shopping, restaurants, schools and other amenities, Huércal-Overa is around 10 minutes away by car, while Albox is approximately 18 minutes away. And when you fancy the sea, the beautiful coastal resorts of the Almería region can be reached in around 40 minutes.

A home to live, enjoy & potentially share

There is something particularly appealing about this property: it offers space without sacrificing comfort, rural tranquillity without being remote, and traditional Spanish character combined with useful modern improvements.

Whether you dream of creating a peaceful family home, escaping to the Spanish countryside, enjoying a more self-sufficient lifestyle, or developing a small guest accommodation business, this property offers plenty of possibilities.

With its large plot, mature olive and almond trees, private pool, panoramic views, generous accommodation, mains water and electricity, 10 solar panels, substantial 15,000-litre water reserve, irrigation water, internet and good access, this is much more than simply a country house.
