A finca on the brink of the Village of Relleu
When you arrive at this finca located on the brink of the historic town of Relleu nothing suggests that this is a very special property. You can park the car in the garage of the property that is located in a narrow street as there are so many in the villages and small towns in the Alicante province. But once you enter the house you directly sense the grandeur of the property and all the love and effort that the current owners put in to it.
Almassera Vella as the Finca is called really consists of 4 properties, of which two boast a permanent tourism licence. The big house has the status of ´Casa Rural´ and the smaller village hous has a touristic licence. The main house "Almassera Vella", formerly the olive press of the village, renovated in 2002 by the architect Rubén Almécija Furió. It is located on a terraced plot overlooking the Arab castle of the tenth century, the village chapel and the famous mountain formations "Sierras de Benesit", "Grana", "Aquilar" and "Cabeçó d´Or". It is an impressive three-storey house renovated to also function as a business.
The living quarters are situated in an almost open plan fashion on the first and second floor with high ceilings and housing an ample snug TV room with woodfire on the first floor library, an office, a spacious dining room for up to 12 guests in a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. The property has a spacious professional kitchen with island that would be perfectly suitable for cooking clases. Separately there is a pantry and a laundry room. There is also a guest toilet on the ground floor.
Upstairs are three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, two of which have beautiful bathtubs and the third is a bathroom with shower. There are two additional bedrooms sharing a bathroom with shower. Three of the five bedrooms have balconies with garden and mountain views. The property has underfloor heating and a lovely fireplace in the living room.
Walking out out into the well-kept garden with lots of Mediterranean plants and trees and an amazing variety of flowers that reach their splendour in spring, providing a frenzy of aromas and colors. In the garden you find a spectacularly situated infinity pool (4m x 10m). The biggest surprise is however not the spectacular view that you have from the balconies and the shaded terraces but is is the fact that the views are for the biggest part of the property! The land with two very historic dwellings and the barranco in between are all part of the property. A disused Moorish country house (in the middle of fields of almond, orange, lemon and about 100 olive trees) is strategically purchased by the current owners to ensure that the beautiful landscape in front of the main house is never hindered. There is an opportunity to renovate the two uninhabited houses. That said, the two ruined houses are indeed very beautiful just as they are, as you can see in the photos, but they present exceptional potential when it comes to opting for a renovation. The new owner would have to investigate access and renovation potential with the town hall.
A second, smaller village house is part of the property
The second hous is a Spacious Village house renovated in 2004 and optimized into two independent houses. The traditional three-storey villagehouse was acquired in 2004 and transformed to provide another 5 bedrooms (each with good natural light), 4 bathrooms with shower, two kitchens, a study and two living rooms. It is directly opposite the main house, meaning guests have easy access via the exterior steps of the main house to the terrace and pool. It is in very good condition. It has a nice façade with large windows of good quality that let in plenty of natural light.
This could be a perfect place for a boutique Hotel, B&B or training location having two permanent tourism licences
This location is perfect for both residential use or as a business opportunity in the form of a luxury B&B or boutique hotel. The area is very quiet and peaceful, an idyllic place to live or run a business with a rural lifestyle. It consists of around 17,000 m2 of rustic land, as well as an area of urban land where the two main properties are located. The two renovated houses have a total area of approximately 680m2. Between the two renovated properties there are a total of ten bedrooms and eight bathrooms. It is ideal for anyone looking in addition to a home of their own, a separate guest accommodation or rental. The current owners have used both renovated properties to accommodate up to 12 guests in total at their cultural retreats (creative writing, cooking, painting, ...) It is also perfect for yoga retreats, personal development or meditation.
