Finca/Country House for sale in Arboleas, Almería

Exclusive and a very rare find in this location just 5 minutes drive from the village and with open mountain views from its elevated position.

The house has been very sympathetically reformed retaining many of the original features such as the beamed ceilings, fireplaces and windows yet combined with modern living. The reform has been carried out to a very high standard and you would not need to spend another penny just literally move straight in.

Because of its elevation the plot is on several levels with steps. There is tarmac access to a concrete driveway and a covered car port with sufficient space to park 3 cars. A couple of steps lead to the side gate and through to the front garden which is planted with established trees and shrubs and an area for relaxing plus a cave store room. There is a 20m covered terrace which is a lovely shaded place to sit and enjoy the open mountain views with ceiling fans fitted for the summer months. Off here the front door leads into a spacious 32m lounge and dining room which has real character with a traditional fireplace housing a log burner.

Off the dining area a door leads to a very light, modern and fully fitted kitchen (16m) with granite worktops with a breakfast bar and an integrated dishwasher. A side entrance door leads out to the courtyard which surrounds the whole of the rear of the property providing lots of private seating areas and a covered dining area with ceiling fan of 12m.

There is a workshop and a separate housing for the gas bottles. Back in the lounge a door leads to the hallway and off to the left a very useful utility room and downstairs wc. There is also a side access door leading out to the courtyard and at this side of the house a wood store with a further gate leading back out to the parking area.

Back in the hall there is also an access door back into the kitchen and a tiled staircase which leads to the first floor. Under here is an office area, making great use of the available space.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms, bedroom 3 of 12m with a built-in storage cupboard. There is a hallway leading to a 16m guest bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a lovely very spacious 10m family bathroom with a beautiful traditional fireplace.

The master bedroom is 16m with an en suite modern walk in shower. There is hot and cold air conditioning in all three bedrooms, traditional style double folding doors leading into the bedrooms and bathroom and beautiful traditional style double beamed ceilings throughout.
The house is a whopping 209m of living space over two floors.

The plot is 1189m and as well as the courtyard that surrounds the rear of the house steps lead to an upper level of the garden which is completely walled, private and not overlooked and has a 6 x 4 swimming pool which has been completely refurbished. A gate leads out from the pool area to the remainder of the plot with olive and almond trees. There is an outside covered seating and relaxing area and there are fabulous open country views from the whole garden and pool area. There are mature trees and shrubs and an artificial grass area for sunbeds by the pool.

The property has full legal paperwork, internet, water and electricity are connected and the property is sold fully furnished and equipped ready to move straight into.
This is a stunning property for someone looking for something more traditionally Spanish with lots of character. Rarely do these types of property come onto the market with swimming pools that are not way out in the countryside. This one is in a nice peaceful location which is completely private yet does have some neighbours close by should you need them.
