Townhouse for sale in Olvera, Cádiz

Zip Code: 11690

From the moment you step through the door, this enchanting traditional Andalucian townhouse reveals a secret its unassuming facade keeps well hidden: an extraordinary amount of space, brimming with preserved character and endless potential.

Homes like this rarely come to market in such wonderful condition. If you've been dreaming of authentic Andalucian style and rustic charm, you could move straight in. The showpiece is a magnificent exposed beamed roof, meticulously preserved and impossible not to fall in love with.

Lovingly maintained over the years and rented until recently, this warm and welcoming family home is in perfect habitable condition — though for those with a vision, there's exciting scope to add your own stamp. It offers 5 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a studio space, a sheltered patio, and 3 terraces on different levels — a wealth of indoor and outdoor living possibilities.

Enter through a long, traditional zaguan (San Juan) entrance hall and you're welcomed into a generous sitting and dining area, from which two bedrooms are accessed — one can be easily transformed into a second lounge. Down the hallway, a good-sized, relatively new kitchen awaits, complete with granite worktops, a double sink, ample cupboard space, and working appliances including a gas hob, cooker hood, fridge freezer and microwave — with plenty of room for an oven and dishwasher.

The kitchen window looks out to the sheltered patio, where you'll find a practical laundry area with washing machine and traditional clothes-washing basin, plus a full shower room with a walk-in shower.

Upstairs to the rear, a small bedroom offers a cosy storage nook tucked under the eaves, which could be reconfigured to create a larger private terrace.

To the front, you'll be wowed by a vast, undeveloped loft space with high ceilings, crowned by that exposed beamed roof. Once a traditional hay loft, it could become additional bedrooms and a second upstairs bathroom — or remain as one breathtaking, expansive feature space.

At the back of the patio, a two-storey annex with a bedroom and generous storage opens onto two of the terraces, one enjoying partial views of the sierras. The annex is a property within a property: convert it into a guest suite, artist's studio or office, keep it for storage — or partially knock through to create extra garden space with expanded terracing and even a plunge pool below. Some other houses in town have done exactly this, with beautiful results!

Located on one of our favourite streets in the old town, the house is accessible by car for easy unloading, with plenty of parking just around the corner.

Warm, characterful, and full of possibility — this is Andalucian living at its most authentic, and sold furnished.
