Andalucia, Almería, Oria, Spain

Set in a truly peaceful and private location, this exceptional 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom country property offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. With no direct neighbours and surrounded by breathtaking countryside, this is a home for those looking to escape the pace of everyday life and enjoy complete tranquillity. The elevated setting provides spectacular far-reaching views in every direction, while still being within easy reach of local amenities, with Oria just a 10-minute drive away and the larger town of Albox approximately 25 minutes away.

The property is designed for comfortable off-grid living and benefits from a 1.5kWp photovoltaic solar system, providing sufficient electricity for everyday use throughout most of the year, with a generator only typically required during prolonged periods of poor weather. Water is supplied via an 8,000-litre storage tank located beneath the pump house, together with a fully functioning domestic water pump system, offering a reliable water supply.

The house itself has been beautifully maintained and is presented in immaculate condition, retaining plenty of character with attractive tiled floors and traditional beamed ceilings throughout. The front door opens into a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, creating a welcoming heart to the home. The stylish fitted kitchen offers plenty of workspace and storage, while the cosy sitting area features a log-burning stove, making it a wonderful space to enjoy throughout the year. In addition to this central living area, there are two further lounges, providing excellent flexibility for entertaining, relaxing or creating separate living spaces. Also on the ground floor is a generous double bedroom, a large family bathroom complete with a freestanding bath, and access to the rear gardens.

A staircase leads to the first floor where two beautifully presented bedrooms sit either side of the landing, both enjoying stunning countryside views. Beyond these is a further bedroom, currently arranged as an additional sitting room, making it ideal as a guest suite or potential self-contained living space. This room benefits from an en-suite shower room and direct access onto a large private terrace with outstanding panoramic views. Steps from the terrace lead down to the front of the property, while an external staircase also provides access to the roof terrace, offering yet another wonderful spot to take in the surrounding scenery.

Outside, the gardens wrap around the property and, while generally requiring only light maintenance, offer enormous potential. The pool area is tucked away behind a gated entrance, creating a private and secure space. Although this area would benefit from some updating, it provides an excellent opportunity to create a fantastic outdoor entertaining area. The solid timber swimming pool is structurally sound but requires a new liner, while the surrounding garden, covered seating area and large storage room simply need some attention to restore them to their full potential.
