Country Property with B&B Potential and 53,000 m² of Land, Rambla de Oria, Almería
€375,000
5 Bedrooms | 5 Bathrooms | Swimming Pool | 53,000 m² of Land | B&B Potential
Located in Rambla de Oria, this substantial and unusual country property offers a combination of private living accommodation, guest accommodation, extensive outdoor space and considerable potential for someone looking to create a rural tourism business.
Known as B&B Los Lujos Casa Rural, the property has been extensively renovated, with the entire lower level renovated in 2019, including new plumbing, electrical installation and tiling. Further renovation was carried out in 2020 to the fourth bedroom and its bathroom.
The property sits on approximately 53,000 m² of land, which is planted with olive and almond trees. The trees are maintained, and the owners receive a share of the annual produce.
The property currently provides five bedrooms and five bathrooms, with three bedrooms arranged as the former B&B accommodation and the remaining accommodation forming the private living area.
An important point for potential buyers is that the property previously had a B&B licence, obtained at the beginning of 2020. This licence was subsequently discontinued and will need to be reapplied for by the new owner.
The B&B Accommodation
The guest accommodation is located on the lower level and has been arranged to provide three individual guest bedrooms, each with access to bathroom facilities.
A large 58 m² terrace provides access to the guest rooms. Approximately 19.5 m² of the terrace is covered by an established old grapevine, creating a naturally shaded area. There is also a comfortable lounge area on the terrace, providing an attractive outdoor space for guests to sit and relax.
La Gitana – 18 m²
The largest of the guest bedrooms is La Gitana, measuring approximately 18 m².
The room has air conditioning, a 160 x 200 cm bed, television and fitted wardrobes.
Its en-suite bathroom measures approximately 7.83 m² and includes a large walk-in shower, bath, washbasin and WC. The bathroom also has separate heating.
La Oliva – 14 m²
La Oliva measures approximately 14 m² and is furnished with a 160 x 200 cm bed.
The room has a ceiling fan and television.
The separate bathroom is particularly spacious at approximately 11.4 m² and includes a WC, bidet, large walk-in shower and heating.
La Tierra – 11 m²
La Tierra measures approximately 11 m² and has two single beds measuring 90 x 200 cm.
The room has its own separate bathroom of approximately 6 m², with shower and WC. Portable heating is available during the winter.
An especially practical feature is that La Oliva and La Tierra can be connected through an internal dividing door. This makes the two rooms suitable for families with children while still allowing them to operate as separate bedrooms when required.
The three guest bedrooms can also be accessed and closed off from the private side of the property. This means the owners can reach the guest accommodation without always having to walk around the outside of the house.
Guest Kitchen and Storage
The B&B has its own 20 m² fully equipped kitchen, allowing guests to prepare their own meals.
The kitchen includes an oven, separate hob, two refrigerators and a microwave. The dining table and chairs can also be included in the sale.
There is an additional 11 m² storage room with shelving and a dishwasher.
An interesting original feature is the door separating the cooking area from the guest accommodation. This is an original stable door which was reclaimed from the former underground animal stalls and incorporated into the property.
There is shaded parking at the front of the property for approximately two small cars, with additional vehicles able to park in front of the terrace.
The guest accommodation has separate septic arrangements. La Gitana is connected to a septic tank at the front of the property, while La Oliva and La Tierra are connected separately to another septic tank behind the house.
The lower level also includes a large dressing and storage area, an office and a bathroom which are currently used privately.
The entire lower floor, including the guest bedrooms, B&B kitchen and terrace, was completely renovated in 2019, with new plumbing, electrics and tiling.
There is also a separate 15 m² garage. The roof has artificial grass and can be used as an additional sun terrace.
Private Accommodation
The upper level provides the private living accommodation.
Access to the fourth bedroom is via a small bridge, adding to the individual character and unusual layout of the property.
La Lara – 23 m²
The fourth bedroom, La Lara, measures approximately 23 m² and was completely renovated in 2020.
The sleeping area provides space for a large bed, chest of drawers and wardrobe. There is also a separate smaller room which could accommodate a single bed or be used for additional storage.
The bathroom was also completely renovated in 2020 and includes a WC, walk-in shower and washbasin.
There are connections and drainage for a washing machine.
The bathroom is not directly connected to the bedroom.
Private Terrace and Kitchen
A generous 47 m² private terrace, enclosed by a gate, leads into the main private kitchen.
The kitchen measures approximately 20 m² and is equipped with a dishwasher, gas hob and oven. The kitchen island and cupboards have granite worktops.
An adjoining 9.5 m² utility room provides additional practical space.
There are connections for a second washing machine, including electricity, water and drainage.
Living Accommodation
From the kitchen you enter the spacious living accommodation, which is divided into two separate areas.
The dining room measures approximately 28.5 m², providing plenty of space for family dining and entertaining.
The adjoining TV room measures approximately 21.5 m² and currently has a bed, giving the room flexibility for use as additional sleeping accommodation if required.
The fifth bedroom is located beside the staircase leading to the lower level.
The layout of the property also creates an interesting possibility for future owners. The private accommodation could potentially be arranged and rented as a separate apartment, meaning the property could be operated as one larger income-producing property, subject to the relevant permissions.
Jacuzzi and Additional Outdoor Areas
At the side of the house is a jacuzzi, which was intended for use by B&B guests but can easily be closed off for private use.
Next to the jacuzzi is an 11 m² technical room.
There is also another small bridge providing access into the utility area.
Swimming Pool
The swimming pool is situated separately from the main house. This provides additional privacy, particularly when guests are using the pool area.
The pool measures approximately 10 metres by 3 metres and gradually slopes to a maximum depth of approximately 1.80 metres.
In 2019, the pool was renovated, including completely renewing the grouting and partially renewing the pump.
A heat pump, also installed in 2019, provides the ability to maintain a pleasant swimming temperature during cooler periods.
Beside the swimming pool is a wooden structure currently used as a bar and storage area for pool equipment.
Electricity and water are already available at this structure, giving the possibility of developing it further into a fully equipped outdoor kitchen.
Barn, Workshop and Further Accommodation Potential
Behind the house is a substantial barn.
Approximately 26 m² has already been completely renovated and is currently used as an atelier, workshop and hobby room.
The remaining approximately 44 m² is currently used as storage and warehouse space.
This section could potentially be made weatherproof and converted into an additional guest accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions.
Water and electricity are already available, with the installations renewed at the end of 2019.
There is also a 3,000-litre water tank with pump, helping to maintain sufficient water pressure.
Behind the building there is space for approximately three to four cars.
The Land
One of the property's most significant features is the approximately 53,000 m² of land that accompanies the house.
The land is planted with numerous olive and almond trees. These trees are maintained, and the owners receive a share of the annual produce.
The extensive plot gives the property a genuine rural setting and considerable privacy, while also providing an established agricultural element.
The size of the land and the existing buildings also provide potential for further development, depending on the intended use and the permissions that may be required.
Renovation and Condition
The lower floor, including the guest bedrooms, guest kitchen and terrace, underwent a complete renovation in 2019.
The renovation included:
New plumbing
New electrical installation
New tiling
The fourth bedroom and its bathroom were subsequently completely renovated in 2020.
The swimming pool was also refurbished in 2019, including renewed grouting and partial replacement of the pump, while the pool heat pump was installed new in the same year.
B&B Licence
The property previously operated with a B&B licence obtained at the beginning of 2020.
The licence was subsequently stopped and will need to be reapplied for by the new owner.
The property should therefore be viewed as offering B&B and rural tourism potential, rather than being sold with a currently active B&B licence.
Any future use as tourist accommodation, or conversion of additional buildings into accommodation, would be subject to the relevant licences, permissions and regulations.
Included in the Sale
The sale includes all furniture, electrical appliances and household contents.
This provides a significant advantage for a buyer, particularly someone looking to use the property as a home with guest accommodation, as much of the existing furniture and equipment is already in place.
A Flexible Property with Multiple Possibilities
The real attraction of this property is the flexibility it offers.
The existing layout provides three guest bedrooms with their own accommodation areas and a separate private living area with two further bedrooms. The private section could potentially be used as an independent apartment, while the existing barn provides further potential for additional guest accommodation.
The pool area already has water and electricity available for the possible creation of an outdoor kitchen, and the jacuzzi provides another feature that could be incorporated into a future guest accommodation business.
Combined with the 53,000 m² of olive and almond land, the property offers considerably more than a standard country home.
It could appeal to someone looking for a large rural home, a property for extended family and guests, or someone wanting to explore the possibility of establishing a rural accommodation business once the appropriate B&B licence has been reapplied for and obtained.
Los Lujos Casa Rural is a highly individual property with substantial accommodation, extensive land, established outdoor facilities and genuine scope for the new owner to make it their own.
