Description
Nestled in the countryside of Aljariz, a charming hamlet of Antas, this striking country house offers an extraordinary blend of rustic heritage, expansive space, and flexible living options.
With a generous 294 m² build size on an expansive plot, the property bridges two eras. It comprises the beautifully preserved original 1930s Cortijo and a substantial architectural extension added in 1997. Boasting a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the smart dual-layout provides an ideal setup for a grand family home, or a highly lucrative rental investment (by letting out one side while living in the other).
The property features two distinct living quarters, each with its own independent access (but also connected to one another from within), offering endless versatility:
- The Character Cortijo (Original 1930s Wing): Stepping through the traditional main entrance, you are welcomed by a grand reception hall. This wing features classic beamed ceilings, a cozy lounge focused around a traditional fireplace, two double bedrooms, and two full bathrooms.
- The Contemporary Wing (1997 Extension): Features its own private entrance hall with office space. The ground floor offers a massive, farmhouse-style kitchen, a dining area, and a remarkably spacious main lounge with a fireplace that flows into a sun-drenched veranda.
- The Upper Level & Master Suite: A staircase leads to an incredibly large, sunlit first-floor lounge, a versatile space that can easily be partitioned into two additional bedrooms. This level hosts the grand master suite, complete with its own private dressing, full bathroom, and access to a beautiful, enclosed covered terrace.
Expansive grounds and premium country features
The outdoor space is a blank canvas for lifestyle lovers, blessed with natural privacy, open countryside views, and rich agricultural benefits:
- The plot: Part urban (2178 m²) and part rustic (963 m² & 1072 m²), providing unique future development opportunities.
- The grounds are currently adorned with mature olive and fruit trees, fully supported by connected irrigation water (agua de riego).
- Features a massive covered swimming pool structure which requires renovation.
- Practical spaces: Includes an oversized attached garage of nearly 30 m² with direct internal access.
High-end extras:
- Striking beamed ceilings and authentic country architecture.
- 3 efficient wood-burning stoves placed strategically throughout the home.
- Fully connected with high-speed fiber-optic internet, ideal for remote working.
Situated in Aljariz, residents enjoy the peace of a small hamlet with a local supermarket and traditional bar within walking distance.
- Antas (10 minutes): Just a short drive away, this culturally rich, traditional Andalusian town provides all daily amenities, including banks, schools, medical facilities, and a wonderful selection of restaurants.
- The coast (15 minutes): Situated less than 20 km from the sea, you can easily enjoy the bustling promenades, seafood restaurants, and Blue Flag beaches of Vera Playa, Garrucha, and Mojácar.
- Connectivity: Seamless access to the main motorway networks connects you to Almería International Airport in under an hour.
Whether you are looking to create a boutique rural retreat, a dual-income rental property, or a grand country home with unmatched character, this estate delivers incredible value!
