Country house in Albox, Almería inland, Spain

An immaculately presented fully renovated country house set in a large plot with a 10x4m swimming pool, mature gardens, large roof terrace and outstanding far reaching views over the surrounding mountain ranges. This beautiful property is situated only a 5 minute drive or 13 minutes cycling (3.1kms) from the large market town of Albox where you will find all of the necessary amenities for a day to day life. The coastal resorts of Vera Playa & Mojácar Playa are just a 35-45 minute drive and the nearest airport is just over an hours’ drive. From the street double wrought iron gates open into a large driveway laid to gravel which leads round to a car port for shaded parking. On the drive there is ample space to park several cars as well as a motor home if necessary. On the left of the driveway there are beautiful mature olive trees which produce several litres of extra virgin olive oil every year. To the front of the house there is also a lovely tiled terrace offering ample space for seating and relaxing whilst enjoying the far reaching views over the surrounding mountain ranges. From the driveway a path leads round to a paved terrace with a pergola with a rolling awning providing a lovely space for shaded seating and al fresco dining. From here a staircase leads up to a large roof terrace offering fantastic views. Back at the terrace steps lead up to a lovely landscaped garden area planted with mature trees, native plants and flowering shrubs. On the left of the garden there is a casita with a small patio on the front and two arches opening into a lovely covered seating area. From there a door opens into a storage room / workshop and there is also a log store on the side of the casita. In the garden a pathway leads round to a lovely circular seating area with a central garden area. From here you access the pool area which is completely private and benefits from a 10x4m swimming pool, large surrounding terrace offering ample space for sun bathing, fabulous views, outside shower and a covered seating / bbq area. From the paved terrace doors open into an entrance lobby with a large open plan sitting / breakfast room with a ceiling fan on one side and a feature fireplace housing a log burner on the other. From here you access a twin bedroom on the right and a second living room directly ahead which then gives way to a large study with a built in range of wardrobes (this room can also be a bedroom). On the left of the breakfast area there is a fabulous large fully fitted kitchen with modern units, freestanding island, Belfast sink, washing machine, dishwasher, down lighting, integrated microwave, integrated oven, gas hob and extractor. Directly off the kitchen is a large utility room with down lighting, fridge-freezer and storage. From here two steps lead up to a lovely bathroom full of character with a walk in shower, toilet and feature basin unit. Back in the breakfast room an opening leads through to a separate dining room which then gives way to a lovely bright living room with a high quality log burner and double doors leading out to the terrace to the front of the house. From here a staircase leads up to the first floor. As you go up the staircase you first have a door on the right opening into a room which is currently used for storage / dressing room but this could be used as a bedroom. The staircase then leads to a landing with a door on the right opening into a double bedroom. On the left of the landing a door opens into a very spacious and bright master bedroom with doors leading out to the roof terrace, hot & cold air conditioning and a large Jack & Jill en-suite bathroom with a full size bath, separate shower, toilet and hand basin. Both of the bedrooms have a door leading into the bathroom. All of the rooms have mosquito nets, metal blinds, remote control fans and security rejas. There are high quality wooden fittings and fixtures throughout. All of the appliances in the property have recently been updated and the swimming pool has just been revamped and filled with fresh water.
