Property Summary
An off grid, idyllic, rural retreat in the beautiful countryside near the village of Siruela, in the province of Badajoz, this fully modernised country home is suitable for all year living or relaxing holidays. Access is by adopted road, (no dirt track and no mud!) with olive, eucalyptus, orange and lemon trees on a plot of 2.360 sq m. (half an acre). Outside also there is a workshop, a wooden shed, a borehole with pump to feed the underground water tank (30,000 ltrs) which in turn has a pump to provide good water pressure in the house. There is also a solar building which houses the state of the art, lithium battery solar system providing enough power for year-round living plus a backup generator which is seldom needed. The pool (unused) is a collapsable type which can be dismantled for winter. There is plenty of space for a veg garden and chicken coop or stables, whatever you might want to add. As well as the tiled patio across the front of the house there is a west facing patio with wonderful views down the valley and amazing sunsets, a tiled back patio, a tiled, vine covered gazebo offering a lovely, shady spot in summer and a tiled base for the pool.The south facing house of 120 m2 has 2 floors and a balcony accessed from upstairs with panoramic views of the surrounding hillsides. All doors and windows were replaced with triple-glazed, heat reflecting glass in uPVC frames with flyscreens and there is hot and cold air conditioning in the bedrooms and living area. The ground floor has one enormous room for open plan living and a downstairs toilet. The kitchen has just been installed and includes new gas hob and separate electric oven, a fridge and a freezer and a dishwasher in addition to a breakfast bar with stools, double sink and plenty of worktop space.
There is a new staircase up to the master bedroom, a double bedroom and the new bathroom. Previously two double rooms, it would be easy and cheap to divide the master again to have 3 bedrooms if needed. The master bedroom has a suite of furniture including bedside tables, dressing table and 2 x 2 mtr mirror fronted wardrobes (the owners will take the master bed!). The second bedroom has a wardrobe, bedside tables and a double bed. The upstairs bathroom has double sinks with drawers and cupboards underneath, a washing machine and 2 other cupboards, all under a worktop, plus a large full height cupboard, so lots of storage. There is a fully enclosed shower with an extractor to prevent steam getting into the room and of course there is another toilet.
Siruela is a wonderful village with friendly people and all the amenities you could want, together with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. The area is known for its fishing in the local rivers and reservoirs and is surrounded by many delightful country walks. Driving is a pleasure with empty roads and wonderful scenery.
The property has all the licences and paperwork required and all taxes are paid to date. (IBI Council tax 120 euros per year).
Come and see it, you won't want to leave.
