Chirivel. Almeria Cortijo. Resale

Lovingly restored Historic Unique Water Mill. Set over two floors, this 6 bed – 2 bath detached cortijo/water mill retains many of the original features of a typical Andalucian Cortijo such as attractive beamed ceilings. There is also a detached brand new 1 bedroom 1 bathroom annex. Across the camino there is also a massive separate detached barn/unit/garage/store room and another adjacent detached outbuilding which could be converted into further accommodation or for storage/animal room. Ample parking space. Set on an expansive plot of nearly 10,000 m² (nearly a hectare) with truly stunning views to the surrounding mountains/countryside, and situated in picturesque setting in the beautiful rural area of Chirivel (Almeria province), yet only a 3 minute drive from the small town of Chirivel, which offers all amenities for daily living. The historical and market town of Velez Rubio, with a wider range of shops, banks, bars, a weekly market, 24h health centre, etc, is only a 10 minute drive. There is good access to the A92 Murcia-Granada motorway which leads to Granada and the Sierra Nevada ski resort in one direction and the E15/A7 coastal motorway in the other direction, giving easy access to the airports of Almeria, Murcia and Alicante. The coastal resorts of Aguilas (Murcia), San Juan de Los Terreros, Vera and Mojacar (Almeria) are within an hour and a quarter drive. Total built area: 702 m2 Mansion/water Mill: Ground floor 167 m2. Upper floor: 167 m2. Total: 334 m2. Annex (1 bed, 1 bath): 68 m2 Detached barn/unit/garage: 151 m2. Detached outbuilding: 149 m2. House tax: The main mill building is thoughtfully distributed over two floors. The large, wooden, double front door opens into a spacious living area that keeps the original mill workings, creating a truly distinctive focal point. To the left is the laundry room. A few steps up lead through an archway to the large and bright kitchen (not fitted) with plenty of space for a large table and chairs. Double patio doors from the kitchen out to the front terrace. Retuning to the entrance, to the right a couple of steps down through an archway lead to hallway where we find a brand new shower room and two bedrooms. Stairs from the living room lead up to upper level. As son as you reach the upstairs, to the front a hallway leads to a double bedroom, and to the end of the hallway is a separate entrance to the upper level from the outside which could make the upper floor into a completely independent accomodation from downstairs, ideal for guests or rental potential. Immediately to the right after you reach the upper level from the interior stairs is a bright seating area and two double bedrooms off the seating area. Also off the seating area a door open into a long hallway which leads to a bran new shower room and a further and generous room awaiting final touches—offering the perfect opportunity to tailor the space to your needs. This room could easily be a large kitchen-diner. In addition to the main house, the detached garage has been converted into a self-contained studio apartment. A significant range of outbuildings includes a large barn/unit, providing endless possibilities for workshops or storage; and a further detached outbuilding which could be converted into further accommodation or for storage/animal room. Set within approximately 1 hectare of fertile land planted with almond trees, the property boasts expansive livind spaces, versatile outbuildings, and breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The property is easily accessible via a paved road leading directly to the house. To the front of the house there is a large parking area. Also another huge ample space/parking area to the front of the barn/unit. It is equipped with electricity and mains water. And internet. This property is not just a home; it's a piece of history with modern comforts. Whether you're drawn by the idea of owning a unique working water mill, the expansive living spaces, or the stunning natural surroundings, this mansion offers it all. It could also make a sought-after retreat for holidaymakers seeking an authentic rural Spanish experience with the necessary tourist license. A viewing is highly recommended to really appreciate it.
