Nestled in a peaceful rural hamlet surrounded by spectacular mountain scenery, this charming and exceptionally versatile country house offers the perfect combination of traditional character and modern comforts.
The property is accessed via a well-maintained country track leading directly to a spacious concrete driveway with ample parking for several vehicles. The house has been thoughtfully designed with three separate entrances, offering excellent flexibility for family living or guest accommodation. The main entrance opens into a welcoming hallway adjacent to the kitchen, while another entrance leads through a large fly-screen enclosed terrace into the main living room. A completely separate entrance serves the first-floor guest accommodation, allowing it to operate independently from the main house if desired.
Outside, the property has been designed to make the most of the breathtaking surroundings. A generous patio provides plenty of space for relaxing, entertaining or dining outdoors, while the above-ground swimming pool with its attractive timber sun deck is the perfect place to cool off during the warmer months. From here, uninterrupted views stretch across the rolling mountains and countryside that make this part of Almería so special. The spacious fly-screen enclosed terrace creates an additional outdoor living area, allowing you to enjoy the fresh air and stunning scenery throughout the year without the inconvenience of insects.
Double sliding doors open from the enclosed terrace into a bright and comfortable living room, complete with hot and cold air conditioning and a feature wood-burning stove, creating a cosy atmosphere during the cooler months. Adjacent to the lounge is a modern shower room together with a spacious double bedroom, also fitted with air conditioning. A gently sloping hallway, designed with accessibility in mind, connects the various areas of the ground floor.
A short flight of steps from the living room leads down into the beautifully fitted kitchen, equipped with quality cabinetry, a gas hob, integrated oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and generous worktop space, making it ideal for everyday living and entertaining. From the main hallway, another air-conditioned double bedroom can be found, followed by a generous dining room featuring hot and cold air conditioning and ceiling fans. This versatile room could easily be used as an additional bedroom, hobby room or second lounge depending on individual requirements. Continuing through the property, a further ramp leads to a comfortable office, also equipped with hot and cold air conditioning, creating an ideal space for those working from home.
The upper floor has been cleverly arranged as a completely self-contained guest apartment, making it ideal for visiting family and friends or as a holiday rental. The first floor can be accessed both from the main house and via an independent external staircase. The internal access can be closed off, allowing it to be used as a completely self-contained guest apartment with its own private entrance. Upon entering, you will find a fitted kitchen with ample storage and an integrated dining space . Stairs then lead to the main accommodation, which comprises a spacious living room, three generous double bedrooms, one benefiting from fitted wardrobes, together with a well-proportioned family bathroom. Completing this level is a fantastic roof terrace, offering panoramic views across the surrounding mountains and countryside — the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee, al fresco dining or spectacular sunsets.
The property has been thoughtfully upgraded to ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency. The entire first floor has been fully insulated, helping to maintain comfortable temperatures throughout both summer and winter. Every room throughout the house benefits from hot and cold air conditioning, while mosquito screens have been fitted to the windows for additional comfort. The property also benefits from a solar power system, reducing running costs, together with a water softener and osmosis filtration system for improved water quality.
One of the property's most attractive features is its official "Rural Home" (Casa Rural) licence, allowing the self-contained upper floor to be legally rented as holiday accommodation. This provides an excellent opportunity to generate additional income while still maintaining complete privacy within the main residence.
Situated just 7km (an 8 min drive) from the picturesque market town of Lubrín, where you will find all daily amenities including shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, a pharmacy and medical facilities, the property enjoys a tranquil setting without feeling isolated. A popular bar and restaurant is within comfortable walking distance (8 minutes or 2 min by car), while the beautiful beaches of the Almería coastline can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, making this an ideal permanent residence, holiday home or investment opportunity.
Combining spacious accommodation, stunning views, modern comforts, excellent accessibility and established rental potential, this is a unique country property that would suit a wide variety of buyers, whether searching for a peaceful permanent home, a lock-up-and-leave holiday retreat or a lifestyle investment in the beautiful Almería countryside.
