Andalucia, Almería, Oria, Spain

Next House Almería proudly presents this enchanting stone-built cortijo in El Campillo de Purchena, a home full of Andalusian character, surrounded by almond groves, oak trees, and endless views of the forest and mountains.

As you approach, the cortijo welcomes you with its timeless charm and a sense of peace only a countryside retreat can offer. Nestled in its own grounds, this property is ideal for those seeking space, privacy, and a more self-sufficient lifestyle, all while staying close to local conveniences.

Inside the main house, you'll find six spacious bedrooms, a family bathroom, a shower room, and even a washroom with toilet and plumbing ready for a shower, perfect for guests or a growing family. The home offers three living rooms, each with its own character, and a large double-aspect kitchen, the true heart of the house. A utility area completes the practical layout.

Blending the old with the new, a thoughtfully built extension has been constructed to modern standards with steel, concrete, and insulated cavity walls. Throughout the cortijo, high-quality wooden double-glazed windows bring in natural light and frame the surrounding scenery, while two cozy wood-burning stoves keep the home warm and inviting year-round. The central heating installation is ready for use, simply requiring a boiler to be completed.

Step outside, and the magic continues. An 8x4m solar-heated swimming pool sparkles under the Andalusian sun, offering spectacular open views across the almond groves and hillsides. A large garage, currently used for storage, is fully equipped with electricity and prepared for water and sewerage connections, making it a versatile space full of potential. Attached to the house are generous stable areas, plus an additional shed at the front for extra storage.

The land surrounding the property is as charming as the house itself: mature oak and almond trees, a once-productive vegetable patch, and grey water irrigation that has already yielded rich crops of Mediterranean vegetables. This is a place where you can truly live in harmony with nature, enjoying the freedom of home-grown produce and the beauty of your own private landscape.

Despite its rural feel, the cortijo is just a 10-12 minute walk (950m) along a quiet dirt track to the village of El Campillo, where you'll find a friendly bar, local shop, and church. For families, a school bus collects children for the nearby school in Oria, a lively town with banks, restaurants, supermarkets, and all necessary services.

This is not just a property, it's a lifestyle opportunity. A rare chance to embrace traditional Andalusian living, with space, character, and comfort already in place.
