Costa Almeria - 3 bedrooms Cortijo

Beautifully restored, large cortijo is charming and appealing for folks who value days filled with peace and quiet along with a relaxed way of living. The property is well maintained and retains a number of its original features. The plot measures 2.2 hectares and 202m2 of living space. The countryside is rich in orchards with almonds, olive and fig trees. Afternoon strolls along the orchard can be romantic with the one you love. Imagine getting caught up in the scenery with that one person you think the world of. Rapturous. There’s nothing like love to make an already lovely setting even more divine. However, for those who want to enjoy a bit of time all on their own, the orchards are full of spots that look spectacularly inviting, patches of green where you can lay down a blanket, sit down and start to read. And when your eyes tire out, you can simply rest and go on to sleep under the shade of the thick boughs and branches. Or, if it’s food you’re after, just pluck a few figs off the trees to last you till you prepare a proper meal for yourself. When your stomach calls, time to go back to the house for dinner. There’s a fully fitted kitchen in there where you can whip something up that’ll put those hunger pangs to rest, at least temporarily. For other fancy touches, the house has an ornate tiled stairwell. It looks gorgeous so make sure you have your camera handy. The master bedroom with en suite bathroom is also a pleasure to explore. The house also has a large garage, a storage area that provides ample space for things, a workshop and a satellite TV. For supplies, not to worry since you are simply 10 minutes away from the nearest shops and at least 1 hour from the coast. So for an ideal spot, whether for rent or buy, this property is certainly worth a second, more thorough look.
