4 Bed Cottage for sale
Villaviciosa, Oviedo, Asturias, Spain
Full Description
The Property:
If you are looking for an investment that can generate a good all year return this compact detached South-facing property was purposely built just for that. As a going concern registered with various international tour operators the present owners are very proud to present a property in such great condition, looking and feeling like a new build. In 2004 the buildable land plots in this highly protected residential-farming area above the estuary were very scarce and the council made it compulsory to comply with certain features i.e. to use the traditional ´Mariñana style´ combining the method of sandstone masonry walls and timber, whilst taking advantage of all modern construction advances and techniques with the advantage of being perfectly insulated.
The house was built with the purpose of being used as a rural tourism accommodation. Over the past 2 decades the property has become very popular with country lovers and many customers still book a year in advance. “El Güertu” was designed into 2x self-contained identical independent homes with a total constructed area of 188 m². This feature offers the future buyer two possibilities. Firstly, to continue maintaining its total or partial tourism focus. Secondly, it could be converted into a single-family home with simple adaptation works.
Currently, the layout of each unit is as follows:
Off the pristine lawn on to a beautiful high covered porch area used as the outdoor diner, stable-doors leading into a living room with a corner log-burner, an open-plan fully fitted kitchen and a dining area with bay windows, a shower- bathroom and WC, a double bedroom and a washing machine closet below the timber stairs.
On the upper floor: A very large study style master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. There is enough room to build large wardrobes in the bedroom for more permanent living.
The plot occupies an area of 985 m² and is completely enclosed with a perimeter masonry wall offering privacy and seclusion.
The gate into the property is automated and the driveway can park some 3-4 cars inside, flush with the amazing lawn and pristine grass garden which lodges a few trees for shade and the BBQ area. At the bottom of the garden on a lower level there is a ‘meditation corner’ looking out to the eucalyptus forest above the estuary. There are some incredible walks in this area. Simply walk out of the pedestrian gateway on to the historical ‘Ruta de Carlos V’ which is a 20 K walk from Villaviciosa town to the pretty village of Tazones, famous for a diversity of seafood eateries. There are various other restaurants en route.
The Location:
The hamlet of Liñero is situated on a privileged location on a hill overlooking the Natural Reserve and tidal Estuary of Villaviciosa. The views are excellent, and the communication is magnificent. In a few minutes you can access the fishing village of Tazones, the Villaviciosa Estuary, and El Puntal, as well as the historic market town of Villaviciosa, directly accessing the motorway from this point.
