Exceptional opportunity to own this fantastic, mimimum 200 year old, village property. It is a 4/5 bed 3 bath set in the heart of the old quarter and in fantastic condition. Its stone walls offer warmth in winter and coolness in summer; the front door leads into one of the most famous streets in Jimena and the back door has the countryside on its doorstep. It is full of nooks and crannies, with traditional apex supporting beams and rooms that amplify the living space with studio space and zones currently dedicated as either a work-space aka ‘shed’, (actually part of the house, not set apart) or a design studio.

Large property with various rooms

This well proportioned property is deceptively large, almost like a tardus and bigger than many villas at 277 m2 with terrace of 20 m2. There is parking at the back and you can enter the property this was as well. It takes you to the patio at basement level, with the work-space bedecked with tools on your left. It is also where the gas bottles are housed as well as laundry facilities. Basement space has been well utilised with living space for yoga or a fitness room. The steps up to the kitchen and sitting room are delightful in their non uniform sizes – once more emphasising the splendour of this property. The kitchen leads straight ahead to the sitting room or turning left you find yourself in the space dedicated as a design studio – currently with 4 sewing machines in situ. Looking from the back, stairs to the left of the kitchen and sitting room lead up to the bedrooms and several chill zones.

Wonderfully restored home

The overall experience is a delight which beguiles and charms, it even has its own spring water well. (Closed up by the previous proprietor). Current owners have enjoyed and revelled in this property since 2004 and now wish to downsize. They are motivated sellers who have priced the property to encourage viewings. We strongly suggest that you do so – you will not be disappointed. It is in impeccable condition.

IBI 372.22 € per annum.

Rent to Buy Option

It is also possible to enter into a contract to rent the property for a defined length of time, between a year and 2 years with a view to buying it after this time. In order to benefit from this, the tenant has to put down a deposit of between 5 and 10% and agree to the purchase price. Two contracts are entered into, one for the rental and another as an option to buy. All the rental monies are deducted from the price paid at the notary for the purchase of the property. But the contract to buy must be completed within the agreed time frame or the tenant loses the deposit and the owner is free to sell to another person.
