Description
We are delighted to present this refurbished 2 bed, 2 bath cortijo, with a beautiful pool and spectacular views, in the peaceful hamlet of El Rincon, Arboleas. A popular restaurant/bar with stunning views, is only a few minutes' walk from the property, and there is another small bar and convenience shop about 15 minutes' walk. It takes about 30 minutes' to walk to Arboleas village.
The village of Arboleas is approximately a 30 minutes' drive to beautiful unspoilt beaches, such as Vera Playa and Mojacar. Due to excellent motorway connections, three airports serve the area, Murcia and Almeria one hour in opposite directions, and Alicante two hours. The village has all the amenities you need for day to day, including two supermarkets, a medical centre, dentist, pharmacy, two banks, post office, vets, hairdressers and beauty salons, a gym, cafe and tapas bars and restaurants. There is a weekly street market on Saturdays, and also padel tennis courts and a communal swimming pool and bar. For many more amenities, the larger town of Albox is less than 10 minutes' drive away.
Double gates lead onto a driveway down to the property. This is the first opportunity to admire the stunning views of the orange and lemon orchards and the mountains beyond. The low maintenance gardens, which are fenced, are well established with many trees, including a lemon tree, shrubs and flowers. The beautiful 8 x 4 swimming pool was only installed a couple of years ago, and there is plenty of terrace space for sun loungers and outside furniture, and ideal for entertaining. There is also an outside shower.
Entry to the cortijo, is through a lovely porch, with seating and room for a dining table and chairs. This is a delightful spot for chilling, eating or entertaining, as it keeps cool in the hotter months. There is a small storage cupboard, which also houses the electric water heater.
Through the front door, you enter into a hall with pretty Spanish tiling. To the left, is a spacious bathroom/utility room with shower, sink and wc. The washing machine and dryer are housed here, and there is room for a shoe cupboard, and space for ironing.
To the right of the hall, you enter the kitchen through an archway. There are ample cupboards and worktops, and there is a built in electric hob, oven and microwave. From here you enter the inviting lounge with pellet burner and hot and cold air conditioning unit. This room has beautiful natural light through the two sets of windows with traditional wooden shutters.
Back to the hall, walking ahead, an archway leads into another room, currently being used as a separate dining room. There is a ceiling light and fan combined.
The typically Spanish stairs lead up to the second level. Here is another spacious area, currently being used as a snug. This could be converted to another bedroom if required.
A door leads into the large and light master bedroom, which has hot and cold air conditioning. A lockable door leads out to a delightful roof terrace with outside light, which is a sun trap, even during the winter months. This is another fabulous spot to admire the wonderful views. Tiled steps lead back down to the garden. A hallway at the other end of the master bedroom, leads into a spacious and light second bedroom. The upstairs bathroom with bath, has recently been refurbished, combining a modern and traditional style.
The 31m² garage with tiled floor and electricity can provide extra storage space, if not used for a car. The gas water heater is housed here. There is huge potential, to perhaps turn this into guest accommodation with an en-suite.
The property is being sold fully furnished, and has been lovingly refurbished by the current owners.
There is mains water and electric and fibre optic internet.
All windows have fly screens, and there is an alarm system, which would just need reconnecting.
There is a jacuzzi which is included in the price.
We don't expect this property will be around for long, so a quick viewing is recommended.
