Turre, Almería, Andalusia, Spain

This property is a genuine slice of Andalucian history situated in the heart of Turre. The fully reformed former priest´s retreat measures 93m² over 3 floors and is located near the grand church in the centre of Turre. The property has been completely renovated to an extremely high standard and oozes charm & character.

Turre is a small Spanish town located below the Sierra Cabrera mountain range. These mountains create a spectacular backdrop and Turre is an ideal base from which to explore them. The town hosts a bustling street market every Friday which is a great opportunity to purchase local produce & souvenirs. The town is a 7 minute drive from the long, sandy beaches of Mojacar or Garrucha with plenty of free parking available along the beachfronts and a variety of shops, bars & restaurants along the promenades. Turre is easily accessible from Almeria airport (50 minutes), Murcia airport (1.5 hours) and Alicante airport (2 hours).

The home is located in the centre of town with typical narrow streets and all amenities nearby. There is street parking around the property but no allocated parking. Upon approach, the home immediately stands out with its stone finish and traditional features. Double wooden doors open into the lounge with exposed ceiling beams, stone walls and ceramic tiling which combine to create a traditional Andalucian home. At the end of the room, there are two arches. The arch on the right leads into a ground floor twin bedroom with curved ceiling. To the left and through another stone archway, a hall leads to the ground floor shower room and then stairs up to the first floor. The shower room offers a wonderful modern twist with a huge walk-in shower, drencher head fittings, vanity unit and state of the art ceramic tiling. The original features, such as the old wooden door and window, combine well with this contemporary styling.

The stone staircase then leads up to the first floor. An external door at the bottom of the stairs leads out to the street at the side of the property. The staircase then opens immediately onto a formal dining area with a gothic arched window enhancing the religious theming of the house. To the right is an entrance to the kitchen with exposed ceiling beams, stone wall and all appliances. A door from the kitchen leads out to a covered terrace with street & mountain views. Back on the landing area, adjacent to the kitchen is a store cupboard with the final door opening into the family bathroom. This is another beautifully staged room, again with exposed ceiling beams, stone walls, free standing bath, separate shower cubicle and vanity unit.

From here, a sweeping set of stairs then leads up to the master bedroom which completes the property layout. This bedroom is an ample double with exposed ceiling beams & traditional wooden floors. The property also benefits from a solar panel on the roof which heats the water.

To summarize, this historical building has been painstakingly reformed to an impeccable standard. Viewing is highly recommended!
