Andalucia, Jaén, Alcaudete, Spain

This beautifully preserved Grand 775m2 build, ´Gentleman´s House´ in the old part of Alcaudete, in the Jaén province of Andalucia, Spain, is just crying out to be a B&B or small hotel so its character and history can be seen by all. Well maintained, it´s like a museum. Step off the street through the original double, wooden doors into a tiled vestibule and another double door with the family crest opens into the light and airy hall with open staircase, patio doors and access to the downstairs accommodation. On the right a salon has access on to a room (without light in the video) which was a shop with original counter and doorway to the street (the door on the right of the main door.) The house had a distillery and some of those features remain. The sitting area has access to a lounge and a kitchen that opens onto the interior patio and has stairs to the first floor. The main, grand staircase, with stained glass window, leads up to the first floor hallway with a grand dining room with its own kitchen, a large lounge, three bedrooms one of which is en suite. This hallway has access doors to the terrace overlooking the patio and behind closed doors there are more stairs to what would have been the servants quarters. This second floor has four bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom, two big storage areas, a further room and access to the top floor which is unused. It could easily be more than eight bedrooms. The interior patio has a laundry cupboard and access to the distillery with another access onto the street (to the left of the main door) this goes right around the back of the patio and has the original still in place. Through the patio is a shower room and corridor to a large garage area which could be a further patio or with the roof removed has a large enough area for a pool. The roof needs some attention but the plumbing and electrics were renewed about twelve years ago and the majority of the original wooden windows and doors had double glazing added. A must see if you are searching for a spacious home and business in one with an impressive town plot size of 370m2.
