1202 Two Storey Loft Style House, Albayzin

This is a great opportunity to buy a lovely, two storey town house with small terrace in a great location close to Plaza Aliatar in the Upper Albayzin. All shops and services are within three or four minutes walk. It is very rare to find a property with two floors, outside space and such a good feel at this price, especially in such a quiet location close to all amenities.

Set out on two floors in a loft style, this homey town house has an open plan feel that could be further enhanced by opening up the kitchen space. Alternatively, the space could be rearranged to create a second bedroom, although this would mean possibly losing the open plan feel.

Downstairs there is a light and spacious open plan living and dining room, complete with a pellet burner in one corner. At one end there is a large laundry/store room, formerly a bathroom. All of the plumbing still exists. It needs only a shower to convert back to a bathroom. At the other end of the lounge is a separate kitchen, which has great natural light.

A spiral staircase leads to the upper floor, which currently enjoys a spacious bedroom which has been divided with shelving to create a working space / chill out area. There is an air conditioning unit with bomba de calor, which can also serve as heating in winter, although this is rarely necessary as the flue of the pellet burner has been left exposed creating an effective radiator. Also on this level is a large and luminous bathroom with shower, and at the opposite end, past the bedroom area is a gorgeous terrace of 9m2 with chairs and a table and plently of space for plants. It enjoys views of the Albayzin and towards Sierra Nevada and the Generalife. A wonderful place to relax and enjoy summer nights and winter days.

This charming property would make a lovely home for a couple, an ideal writer's retreat, or even a home for a family of three if a space was closed to create a second bedroom. The house is in good condition and ready to move into.
