2 Bed Country House for sale
Vinuela, Malaga, Andalucia, Spain
Full Description
A 78m2 semi detached country house dating from 1950 with a garden and orchard, just 20 minutes from the coast and on a roadside location (not a busy road), needing some light renovation, plus a second building to renovate with its own patio.
Casa Ermita is located close to the lovely village of Viñuela, with its excellent facilities, in the Viñuela river valley, just 20 minutes from the coast. The house has a terrace to the front, separating it from the road, and a lovely place to enjoy, with flower beds to restore and replant. Next to the front terrace is a gated entrance into the orchard garden with parking.
The front door leads from the front terrace into a living room (4 x 3m) with a large window to one side bringing in plenty of light and a wide staircase to the right. To the rear, a door leads into the kitchen/dining room 4 x 3m which needs updating. From here a door leads out to the rear patio and the garden.
The wide stairs lead to a small landing. To the left is the double bedroom (4 x 3.5m) with a window over the larger terrace and second to the side, over the garden. To the right is the single bedroom (2 x 3.5m) with a window over a second, smaller terrace. Potentially, this room could have patio doors out to its own private terrace, or possibly it could be extended into the smaller terrace space.
The smaller terrace is accessed via a door to the far right (terrace 2 x 2m with views across the countryside due South). In the middle at end of the landing is the bathroom with a double shower unit (3 x 2m) and to the far left is a door to the larger terrace (4 x 3m) with lovely views over the countryside to South and East and the ‘hermita’ or shrine to the Virgin, next door.
The back door in the kitchen leads out to a covered patio area, and the terrace continues to the left of the patio, facing the gated entrance and the orchard garden. The garden consists of around 500m2 and is planted with a variety of fruit trees. From the far end of this lovely, flat garden, is a slope leading down to a large orchard at the bottom (also completely flat at the bottom and consisting of 622m2. There is not irrigation water now, but with rain water collection into a large tank, it would be possible to plant trees, vegetables etc on this plot. There are mangos, oranges, custard apples and sugar cane growing here.
To the right of the little covered patio area is a small open patio belonging to the neighbour, but a wall can be erected between the two for privacy. Beyond this area is a door through a wall into a walled patio with an old building, also belonging to the property. It would be easy to make access from this building to a side street and close in or lock the door through the wall, as this building (68m2) could be renovated and converted into a small second living unit, with its own patio garden and independent access. This area (patio with building) has a total footprint of 89m2.
This lovely property needs a new owner to lovingly return it to the happy home it once was for the family who currently own it. It would be ideal for anyone wishing to live here, and have a small renovation project to enjoy next door, resulting in a second home that could be let or used by family and friends. It is also ideal for anyone wishing to find a country house that is not along a difficult country track, and for those who value the proximity to villages, towns and the coast.
