Lovely country house in Vélez de Benaudalla, well-maintained with a pool, garden & many fruit trees.
When approaching this green oasis located between the mountains you will be amazed by the beautiful garden that surrounds this lovely country house. It is very uncommon to find such a large flat plot in this area that even comes with sea views. The electric gates lead to a driveway where you can park as many cars as needed. From the driveway, it is still a surprise what’s behind the green fence of palm trees and flowers! Once you open the little fence, that gives access to the pool area and the house, you will be delighted by the good qualities used in the construction of the villa. Even though it has the typical Andalusian details which blend in perfectly with the surroundings, at the same time, it gives you the feeling of a contemporary house. The entire property is perfectly maintained. On the left of the entrance, there is a big pool with a smaller pool annexed to it where you can lay in the shallow water or where the kids can play.
A big, covered terrace surrounds the house along two sides, so you can relax in the shade during the long summer season. Half of the covered terrace can be closed with a glass curtain, that currently is being used as an extension of the spacious living room. Upon entering the house, you will find the fitted, modern kitchen on your left with a two double stoves (one electric and one wood stove).
The high ceilings give amplitude to the house. The open plan living and dining area, enjoy a lot of light from the windows and the veranda. During the short winter season, you will also be very comfortable in this country house thanks to the cosy fireplace. You will be astonished by the silhouettes of Africa during the beautiful sunsets in winter.
On the ground floor, you will find two bedrooms and one modern bathroom. The wooden stairs lead to the first floor, where you will find the master bedroom, the fourth bedroom, a spacious bathroom, and a big dressing room that could be used as a fifth bedroom. At the end of the corridor, you can access a terrace that overlooks the pool area and the garden.
The property is protected from the north wind by the large stone mountain laying behind the house. On the main plot of 8.300 m2, there are a lot of tropical fruit trees, like avocado and mango trees. A small cabin made of stones could easily be transformed into a guest apartment, since it has water and electricity. At the moment, it is used to store the machinery. Next to the garden and main plot, there is the big rustic plot of approx. 12.000 m2 which is currently rented out to a farmer and is perfectly maintained. The irrigation is automatic.
This country house is less than a 10-minute drive to the centre of Vélez de Benaudalla. So you will have complete privacy, yet you are close by all amenities. The beach is only 15 minutes by car.
