Description

Set within a 6,350m2 lemon grove in a tranquil rural setting, this spacious, traditional Andalucian farmhouse has been refurbished by the current owners to provide an elegant country home. Apart from a large swimming pool, it also boasts a stunning terrace as well as a courtyard. All this and its size give it potential as a great family home or a rural retreat or B&B. 
 
To the front of the property is a glorious, expansive terrace, hosting a mature grape vine which provides lovely, soft shade in summertime and, when it sheds its leaves in winter, one can enjoy full sunshine. 
 
The house extends to 225m2 and the accommodation is distributed over two levels. One enters the house through an antique wooden door, directly into a spacious, welcoming reception lounge which hosts a traditional feature fireplace. There is also a second sitting room adjoining this room. Also on the ground floor is a particularly large dining kitchen, which also features a fireplace and is equipped with industrial style kitchen units, a complete bathroom, a laundry room and a very spacious bedroom.
 
One of the particularly attractive features of this property is a very private, spacious, Andalucian courtyard located to the rear of the property. This provides a great entertaining area and hosts both a BBQ and a traditional bread oven. The downstairs bedroom is accessed from this patio and is of such generous proportions that it could easily be developed into an independent guest suite.

An attractive staircase leads from the reception lounge to the first floor of the property which offers three further double bedrooms and one other room which could be exploited as another sitting room, dressing room or office. The master suite is particularly spacious and hosts a very stylish ensuite bathroom area.

A further staircase leads from the first floor to a roof terrace of about 20 m2 which hosts stunning views across the citrus groves of the Guadalhorce valley to Alora pueblo and its imposing, historic castle.

This property enjoys a quality-built, private swimming pool with a sunbathing terrace which again hosts amazing views.

Although the current owners have maintained many of the authentic, traditional features of this property, it does enjoy the modern amenities of mains drinking and irrigation water and mains electricity.

It enjoys a tranquil and rural location and yet within easy walking distance to a local bar/restaurant and to all of the amenities of Barriada del Puente, Alora and to public transport links.
