Country house in Oria, Almería inland, Spain

This large stone-built cortijo is situated in a peaceful location in El Campillo de Purchena, Oria. Surrounded by almond trees, it enjoys stunning 360° views of forests and mountains. The main house currently comprises six bedrooms, a bathroom, a shower room, three living rooms, a utility area, a second unfinished shower room, and a spacious, bright dual-aspect kitchen/diner. A recent extension, built to modern standards with steel, concrete, and insulated cavity walls, has further expanded the property. All windows have been replaced with high-quality wooden double-glazed units, many with traditional wooden shutters. Heating is provided by two wood-burning stoves, located in the dining room and main living room, plus a central heating system awaiting installation of the boiler. While many rooms are completed, additional work is needed to finish the house and create a truly outstanding country home. Water is provided by a private well, electricity is connected, and the house has been rewired. Outside, the property features a split-level garden with an 8x4 m solar-heated swimming pool, a pergola for shade, and a large garage currently used as a storage shed, equipped with electricity and prepared for water and waste connections, ideal for conversion into an annexe. At the far side, several animal buildings require renovation, and a shed provides extra storage. The cortijo is centrally located on its land, planted with oak and almond trees, and irrigated via a grey-water collection system, making it eco-friendly and perfect for a productive vegetable garden. The house offers privacy while being within walking distance of a village with basic amenities and less than 20 minutes’ drive from Oria. School bus services are available for families with children. This property combines traditional charm with high-quality renovations. Once completed, it will be a stunning country home in a beautiful, peaceful setting.
