Casa Alcora — Country House for sale in Chirivel

Excellent opportunity to acquire this substantial and characterful semi-detached village property located in the peaceful hamlet of El Contador, near Chirivel, offering an impressive build size of over 400m², brimming with traditional charm and original features. Everyday essentials can be found nearby including bars, a restaurant with hotel facilities and a general shop, while the larger towns of Chirivel and Vélez-Rubio are just a short drive away for further amenities. Surrounded by stunning countryside and close to the beautiful Sierra María-Los Vélez Natural Park, the location enjoys a tranquil rural atmosphere approximately an hour inland from the coast.

The property’s wide façade and full-length front terrace, bordered by classic white balustrading, immediately hint at the generous proportions within. Entering through the main door, a spacious entrance hall leads to a ground-floor double bedroom on one side and a cosy sitting room on the other. Continuing through, you reach the recently upgraded kitchen-diner, fitted with modern units and appliances while still retaining a traditional feel. From here there is a stylishly renovated shower room complete with walk-in shower, vanity unit, toilet and washing machine.

A staircase from the kitchen rises to the first floor, where a large landing provides access to five further bedrooms, offering ample space for family living or guest accommodation. There is also a sizeable storeroom on this level, already with plumbing provisions in place, presenting the possibility of creating an additional bathroom or even another bedroom suite.

Back on the ground floor, a door from the kitchen opens into an expansive garage capable of housing up to three vehicles. This space offers significant potential for conversion into additional living accommodation if desired. A second staircase from the garage leads to a traditional upper-level room, historically used for curing meats and drying herbs, which could also be transformed into further accommodation. The roof in this section has been completely replaced, adding peace of mind.

Externally, the property continues to impress. Beyond the garage lies a charming courtyard patio, creating a wonderfully private outdoor retreat. This area also includes a storeroom, a chicken run and access to a substantial two-storey barn which has had it's roof replaced but requires substantial renovation. Although currently without an internal staircase, the barn offers excellent scope for redevelopment into guest accommodation, workshops or recreational space. The outdoor areas provide more than enough room for the installation of a swimming pool, should one wish to enhance the leisure facilities.

Recent improvements including a new kitchen, new shower room, updated plumbing and electrics, and replacement windows ensure the property is comfortable and largely ready for immediate occupation, while still offering scope to complete and personalise certain areas.
