3850 Large South Facing Cortijo

A chance to purchase an exceptional cortijo, in superb condition with flat land and water, close to the village of Válor.

This detached property, rebuilt to an extremely high standard, has three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. There is plenty of room for multiple car parking on the property including a shaded area and a large garage. 

Access to the cortijo is via a tarmac/concrete road, then approx. 200m along a track so reasonably close to the village but in a very peaceful position and not overlooked. The village is approximately 10mins walk from the cortijo. 

The main entrance is a stable door, wide enough to allow disabled access. This leads into a large open plan hall/dining area. To the left is a bright double bedroom with a fitted wardrobe. From the hall is a staircase with beautiful traditional style tiles leading to the first floor.

The dining area has a corner wood burner and is light and airy. Through an arch is the kitchen with bespoke fitted wooden units, granite worktops, oven, hob, extractor, washing machine and fridge-freezer.  

The fully tiled bathroom on this level has a large shower, wc and vanity unit with marble top and traditional style porcelain washbasin.

The staircase from the hall leads to the first floor landing and spacious open living area with a woodburner. There are windows or doors to two aspects, again making this room light and airy. One wall has built in bookshelves and a small partially hidden office/study area. Double doors lead out to a large roof terrace with two areas, one covered, great for dining and the other open with stunning views of the mountains.

From the landing are two double bedrooms one with freestanding furniture and double doors to a Juliette balcony, the other smaller bedroom has a double bed and fitted wardrobe. The bathroom is fully tiled, has a corner shower, wc and vanity unit marble top and porcelain washbasin.

At ground level to the front of the property is a covered terrace. To one side is a large garage/workshop, on the other side is a small storeroom housing a water boiler, gas bottles and valves for the solar hot water system. The 1030m² of land directly around the property has a boule/petanque court, an above ground splash pool and is mainly laid to garden with patio areas and flowerbeds, an orchard is located to the right of the house.

Behind the property is 2364m² of flat land over two terraces with amongst others, citrus, olive, almond, pomegranate trees and vines. There is scope to plant a large vegetable patch. The property has water rights and a shared water deposit with a neighbour.

The cortijo has solar and gas hot water systems, mains electricity, water and is sold fully furnished with quality items.
