Townhouse for sale in El Contador, Chirivel, Almería

A charming, traditional 6 bedroom townhouse in the peaceful hamlet of El Contador, Chirivel, with generous living space, traditional Spanish character, and a private rear terrace with swimming pool.

This property is in need of reform, presenting a fantastic opportunity for buyers to modernise and personalise a substantial home to their own tastes and requirements.

Approaching the property, there is a garage to the right and a small front garden with lawn, before the main entrance door. Stepping inside, there is a bright and spacious open-plan living & dining room, beautifully centred around a log-burning fireplace, perfect for cosy winter evenings and relaxed family gatherings.

To the left of the living area, a door leads into the fifth bedroom; a comfortable double room for guests, family members, or even as a home office. From the living room, a hallway guides towards the staircase and the master bedroom, which enjoys the luxury of an en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower.

Returning to the main living space, an additional opening leads into the fully fitted kitchen, complemented by useful storage beneath the stairs. A further door from the kitchen opens into the second living room; a wonderfully versatile space featuring a traditional Spanish fireplace and direct access to the garage. This room is perfect as a family lounge, games room, or winter sitting area.

Patio doors from the second living room lead out onto the rear terrace, where the private swimming pool, also in need of renovation, becomes the focal point of the outdoor space. With some work, this area has the potential to become a beautiful sun terrace for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying the peaceful countryside surroundings.

The first floor with a central landing provides access to 4 spacious double bedrooms and a family bathroom with full-sized bath, creating ample space for large families or visiting guests.

The property is officially registered within the municipality of Chirivel but is located in the friendly & welcoming hamlet of El Contador, which is home to basic daily amenities including a general store, bar, restaurant, and weekly market. The town of Chirivel, just a few minutes’ drive away, provides a wider range of services, including shops, medical facilities, schools, and a municipal outdoor swimming pool open from June to September.

For those seeking coastal escapes, the Mediterranean town of Aguilas is approximately 50 minutes away, while Almeria and Murcia airports can be reached within 90 minutes, and Alicante airport in approx. two hours.

To summarize, this is a substantial village property offering space, character, and exciting renovation potential in a tranquil rural setting.
