An hours’ drive away. 3 airports are also within easy reach - Almeria (1 hour 15), Murcia Corvera (1 hour 45) & Alicante (2 hours). Oria also boasts a municipal outdoor swimming pool which is open during the summer months.
The plot measures a generous 1377m² with unspoilt mountain & country views all around. The houses measures approx. 187m² with an additional garage measuring 41m². Upon approach there is plenty of off-road parking for several vehicles or even a motor home if required. To the left is the double garage which serves as a garage & storage facility. On the opposite side of the house there is also a second driveway. Behind the garage is another outbuilding which is also used for storage. On top of the outbuilding is a solar pipe matting which heats the pool. There is also a heat exchanger fitted to the pool also but this is currently not in use.
Back to the front of the property, a door leads into the entrance hall whilst another door to the side leads into the potential self-contained guest annexe. The guest annexe boasts a very spacious double bedroom with air conditioning & ceiling fan as well as an en-suite shower room with corner shower cubicle & vanity unit. Next to this is a walk-in wardrobe. An L-shaped hallway then leads to a fully fitted guest kitchen with all appliances and a log burning fireplace
Back outside, the property is home to 7 x 3m private pool with extended terracing all around and a gazebo & dining area overlooking the pool. The pool benefits from an adjustable & fully removable Perspex cover that raises the temperature of the pool, to extend the swimming season from April to November. After the pool there is a walled courtyard with a door ahead leading into a terrace and Jacuzzi. This covered terrace has vertical awnings on two sides. Moving further along, an L-shaped garden leads to the conservatory/dayroom which can be accessed from the lounge. This beautiful dayroom offers amazing views and can be used as a conservatory during the winter months or opened up in the summer.
Internally the layout is extremely flexible and the cortijo can be used as two independent properties or just one family home. In the main house, an entrance hall with an external door is adjacent to the guest kitchen. Opposite is a lockable door which leads to a third bedroom or lounge/snug. Moving on from here, on the right is a central office or reading room with traditional exposed ceiling beams. This is a very cosy room with a multitude of possible uses. Straight ahead is the second bedroom with ceiling fan and exposed ceiling beams. To the right, an L-shaped hallway leads on to a family shower room with corner shower cubicle and fitted vanity units. On the left from central office is the long lounge/diner. This bright & spacious room features exposed ceiling beams, pellet burning fireplace with a back boiler serving the central heating and a ceiling fan. On the left is a semi open plan modern kitchen with appliances, breakfast table and granite work tops. To complete the layout, a door from the lounge opens into a triple arched dayroom which has been enclosed with patio doors. The mountain views from here are a joy to behold and a log burner in the corner ensures cosy winter evenings.
