Beautiful Village House with Stunning Views!
A unique 17th century, three bedroomed Arab house for sale, set in an ancient barrio of Capileira, the second highest village in Spain. This wonderful old house is among the first original buildings of Capileira, and occupies perhaps one of the best positions, overlooking the Barranco Poqueira and the countryside, and with uninterrupted views across the Sierra Lujar to the Mediterranean and beyond.
Originally built as two adjoining dwellings, the house occupies 180m2. The ground floor now has a large 30’ kitchen diner with a wood burner and a range of fitted storage units in chestnut with marble top work surfaces. The large picture window overlooks the stunning views. Also downstairs there is a study/office area with telephone point and internet connection, plus a shower room, cloakroom area and walk in storage space.
Upstairs there are two large double bedrooms, both with built in storage. One of these has direct access to a small outside patio area. The other has a fireplace with chimney, and surely one of the most spectacular views in Spain. The third bedroom is a large single or a small double, and is currently used as a library come artist studio. There is an upstairs sitting room with satellite T.V. and a second wood burning stove. This cosy room has direct access through new double glazed French doors onto a large terrace, which is a great place to relax with a drink to enjoy the stunning views.
Also upstairs there is a family bathroom with a bath with shower over. There is also a small separate laundry area. The house has oil fired central heating as well as 2 wood burning stoves. Satellite TV and telephone and Broad Band are all connected.
Outside there are two small casitas for storage, one of which houses the central heating boiler and oil tank. There are several ornamental terraces close to the house, planted with roses, irises, jasmine, wisteria and solanum. There is a private patio outside the dining room with flower beds and seating which overlooks the countryside and the wonderful vistas. Below the house is a separate plot of agricultural land of approximately one third of an acre. An irrigation system has recently been installed to provide for the cultivation of fruit trees and vegetables. Parking is close by, within a three minute walk.
The house enjoys peace and quiet and an unspoilt rural environment, yet is close to all the amenitites of the village.
