4 Bed Property for sale
Vera Playa, Almeria, Andalucia, Spain
Full Description
In addition to location being key, the opportunity to purchase a detached property in this area is very rare as there are only 5 and the most recent sale was back in August 2020.
The 131m² house is set on a plot of 544m² and boasts 4 bedrooms, 2½ bathrooms, an 8x4m swimming pool with heat pump, parking for multiple vehicles and solar panels.
The ground floor of the property comprises an open plan living dining room with feature curved wall and windows that look out on to the pool and terraces.
The bright and spacious living room benefits air conditioning for the summer months and a pellet burner for the cooler winter ones.
Off the living room there is the kitchen with arch topped breakfast bar that connects the two rooms and creates a Theatre Style kitchen when entertaining.
The kitchen is fully fitted with brush steel appliances, marble worktops, generous storage cupboards and separate larder / storeroom that also houses the electric water heater, which is powered by the aforementioned solar panels.
To the rear of the living room there is a hallway that gives access to the 3 ground floor bedrooms and a bathroom.
At the end of the hallway is the master bedroom furnished with built in wardrobes, air conditioning and ceiling fan.
The bedroom adjacent to the master is the smallest of the three on the ground floor and also has built in wardrobes and air conditioning.
The last of the ground floor bedrooms is currently being utilised as an office and has been made open plan to the hallway with the removal of a wall. To reinstate the bedroom it would require a stud wall to be built. Off this bedroom there is a toilet and basin.
The large bathroom is fully tiled; has a glass screen walk in shower rain shower head, wash basin set in a long marble counter and toilet.
Access to the upper floor was originally via a metal spiral staircase, but the owners seldom require the extra bedroom and bathroom, so removed the staircase and have installed a retractable ladder to give access when they do want to use it.
Reinstating the staircase, either spiral or with other newer options that are now available compared to when the property was built in 2001, would be possible.
The first floor bedroom has air conditioning and an en suite bathroom with bath & shower over, toilet and basin. There is also a terrace off this bedroom that stores some of the external air conditioning units and gives access for cleaning the solar panels.
Externally, there is a path either side of the house. Along the left path there is the main entrance door and then you arrive at the swimming pool.
To one end of the 8x4m low maintenance polypropylene lined pool there is a pergola covered summer kitchen and BBQ and also equipped with an electronically operated retractable sun awning.
Moving to the other side of the property, the path continues past three secure storage cupboards and a utility area with washing machines and a gas boiler which is now not used as frequently due to the installation of the newer, greener and cheaper solar technology.
To the front of the property there is a brick built shed that is used to store a motor bike, bicycles and other equipment; and a 7x5m temporary unit that the owners use as a work space for their business.
Should the new owners of the property not want this unit then it will be removed leaving space for more vehicles, boat, campervan or similar. If they do want it, then it will be included in the sale.
In addition to the installation of the 12 450 watt solar panels (generating 5.4kwh) and the air conditioning (for both cold and hot air); the main entrance door and most of the windows have been replaced with newer uPVC double glazed units and have mosquito screens. There are also rejas fitted to all of the downstairs windows and high speed fibre optic internet is available.
As mentioned earlier, the location is one for anyone wanting an easy walk to the beach and access to the paseo which winds its way to Garrucha. There are also cycle tracks and paths from the nearby flamingo inhabited lagoon passed the neighbouring town of Palomares and on to Villaricos.
In the locality there are several bars and restaurants which are open all year round and many more to chose from during the long summer season when the beach chiringuitos open; a high street brand supermarket and bus routes to Mojácar, Vera and surrounding areas.
Airport transfers to Almería and Murcia are approximately 60 and 80 minutes respectively and Alicante at around 2 hours.
