Villa Detached

Very spacious stylish characterful country house enjoying stunning rural location between the pueblos of Casarabonela and Ardales. The main house extends to approx. 200 m2 and offers a stylish open plan breakfast/kitchen and lounge area with high ceilings and wooden beams. This lounge area hosts a quality wood burning stove with air-conditioning heating and cooling and ceiling fans. The kitchen area is very well equipped with gas and electric hobs, electric oven and dishwasher. There are also two double bedrooms, one with en-suite and family bathroom. There is also a very attractive mezzanine level which is currently utilized as a large double sleep area. One of the main features of this property is an extensive conservatory which extends across the whole width of the house and has direct access from the breakfast room, living room and master bedroom and leads out to the outside terraces, swimming pool area, BBQ area and outside kitchen. A very attractive internal courtyard which hosts a mature grapevine offering soft shade in summertime and sun in winter is located between the main house and the annex. The guest annex offers accommodation over 2 levels. At courtyard level there are two en-suite double bedrooms and the upper garden level offers a sitting room, kitchen, double bedroom and shower room. The guest annex also hosts a very private stylish roof terrace hosting stunning views over the Sierra de las Nieves Mountain range and from where one can experience the glorious Andalucian sunsets. In addition to the large accommodation there is a separate garage, a laundry room with WC plus 30.000 litres water deposit. There is also a quality swimming pool with the advantage of solar heating. Behind the swimming pool there is a further 25 m2 studio which could be developed to provide a variety of uses. The land is planted out with productive olives, almonds and orange trees. The current owner exploits this property as a high end holiday letting which achieves a substantial annual income. It could equally be enjoyed as a very stylish and comfortable family home or rural retreat. Mains electricity, internet, satellite TV, well water are all connected. This property is registered as an S.L. company and therefore the normal 8% transfer tax payable on the sale of a property should not apply. This property enjoys a stunning unspoilt location but it is only 15 minutes from the amenities of Casarabonela or Ardales and in close proximity to the Ardales lakes.
