LOR5C01 - Stunning reformed 5 bedroom cortijo with saltwater pool - REDUCED TO €449,950

REDUCED! This beautifully reformed 5 bedroom 3 bathroom cortijo is set in an idyllic countryside location, just a short drive from Vélez Rubio. Set within a huge plot of over 130,000m², the property boasts a saltwater pool, garage/storeroom and much more.... Despite its peaceful setting, the cortijo offers excellent access; a well-maintained track from the tarmac road leads to the home. The market town of Velez Rubio, with its full range of amenities, is only ten minutes´drive away, as is the village of La Parroquia. The historic city of Lorca is less than half an hour’s drive, while the coastal towns of Águilas and San Juan de los Terreros are reachable within an hour. The property has been extensively modernised while retaining its rustic charm. Recent improvements include 12 5kWh solar panels, 3 new log burners, a fully upgraded master en-suite with underfloor heating, a remodelled kitchen with 2 skylights, a solar tube in the lounge and a switchable water softener. The saltwater swimming pool has been completely renewed with modern machinery, while the water pump, external pipes and meter have also been replaced. In addition, the outdoor kitchen roof and the large storeroom roof have been rebuilt. The approach to the property is as picturesque as its surroundings. The track passes the ruins of a castle on the hillside to the right, leading to a roundabout planted with an olive tree, which doubles as a parking area. To the left is a newly built carport, while straight ahead is a separate room currently used as a gym with its own W/C. Double gates then open into the landscaped front garden. To the left, the original garage has been converted into a storage room that also houses the water tanks and softeners. Moving forward, a covered terrace sits in front of the house, providing the perfect spot for outdoor dining while enjoying sweeping views. This terrace flows directly out to the saltwater swimming pool and an outdoor kitchen, complete with barbecue and sink; ideal for entertaining. The terrace continues around the pool to a viewing point with panoramic vistas stretching as far as Lorca on a clear day. The garden area concludes with a charming courtyard at the side of the property, incorporating a wood store, a large storeroom (which could be converted into a guest annexe), and a door into the utility room. Stepping inside, the entrance hall sets the tone with exposed brick on the left and a staircase to the upper floor on the right. A further hallway to the rear leads first to the spacious master bedroom on the left which features large windows overlooking the garden & pool, as well as its beautifully finished en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower and underfloor heating. Next along is a well-presented W/C with rustic styling. The hallway then opens into a generous dining area and the U-shaped kitchen with central island, fully fitted with modern appliances including a fridge/freezer and dishwasher. A feature log burner creates a cosy atmosphere during the cooler months. From here, a door leads into the spacious main living room which boasts another log-burning fireplace, a solar tube for natural light and direct access to the front terrace. Two additional doors from this living space open into a second sitting room or office which flows through to a bar area and the utility room to the rear; the other door opens into a second bedroom with its own stylish en-suite shower room. The upper floor offers 3 further bedrooms and a family bathroom with a walk-in shower, positioned at the end of the landing. The bedroom closest to the bathroom is the most spacious of the guest bedrooms, providing excellent space for guests or family. The property lies within the Murcia region, close to the Almeria border, on a private plot of over 13 hectares. Approx. 8.5 hectares of this land are planted with productive almond trees and 1 hectare with olive trees; the farming of these trees is managed. The remainder of the plot comprises the house, landscaped gardens and open land where hunting is not permitted. This cortijo perfectly combines rustic character with modern comfort, offering extensive grounds, stunning mountain scenery, and complete privacy, all within easy reach of town, city and coast.
