+ Exceptional country house + Stunning views + Close to town + Independant apartment + Exceptional level of design and decoration + Mains power and water + Huge plot + Superb country setting This beautiful reformed cortijo is something to behold! Reformed to a high standard the interior looks like it belongs on the pages of a high-class interior design magazine. Quirky, beautiful and vibrant, melding traditional Spanish styles with modern themes from around the world. A property with the wow factor by the bucketload. The current owner has spent a good portion of her life creating this superb home. The attention to detail is often sublime; touch the carved, wooden fittings around the doors and marvel how beautifully the old and the new have married in the wonderful, main kitchen. This gorgeous property is so well positioned too! In the most fantastic setting, perched high on a hill-top with panoramic 360-degree views. AND a couple of minutes from a motorway junction which will take you to Velez-Rubio in 6 minutes, Murcia airport in an hour and just 45 minutes to the coast. The perfect mix of rural charm, tranquillity and solitude but within a few minutes of all the facilities on offer in the towns of Velez-Rubio and Chirivel. The property has mains electricity, mains water and a septic tank. It is currently divided into two separate dwellings with seven bedrooms, three bathrooms and two kitchens perfectly configured for a bed and breakfast or holiday letting business. Being so close to the main arterial route from Granada to Murcia it offers a great scope as a stop-over for travellers and holiday makers alike. The house in set on-top of a hillside, on a flat plateau and in total the land amounts to 40,000 square metres of mainly olive and almond groves. The pine woods beyond offers great views as well excellent walking territory. The land and garden is, pretty much a blank canvas, ready for the new owner to stamp their mark of this wonderful property. Perhaps, an infinity pool with views of the surrounding countryside? The investment in forming this wonderful home has been enormous and the next owners will reap the rewards, as the owner has requested that we market the property at less than 300,000€ (far less than has been spent on it). This stunning house must be viewed to be fully appreciated. A real one off. LOS VELEZ REGION Los-Vélez is a beautiful and tranquil place to live.
