We approach this lovely four-bedroom home along a dirt track baked by the sun and surrounded by greenery, leading to a traditional stone house with a terracotta barrel-tiled roof and some charming flourishes, such as parabolic arch windows, crisp flashes of whitewash picking out decorative plasterwork and round dormer window.

The internal living space, comprising four bedrooms and one bathroom, is arranged on two floors and presented in a good state of repair and with internet access. Two of the bedrooms have fireplaces and one has a woodburning stove.

Outside there’s a sunny 60 m2 patio (ideal for relaxing with a cool drink after a day in the great outdoors), 100 m2 of terracing at first-floor level, a patch of traditional olive trees and an orchard. There are also two ponds, one of 40 m3 which offers scope for conversion into a small swimming pool.

As well as a first or second private residence, this unique character property has a lot of potential as a holiday let, restaurant or even a glamping site, being well situated in an area of Castellón popular with holidaymakers, just a 50-minute drive from lively Valencia, 30 minutes from a choice of sandy beaches, including the popular resort of Benicássim, and 25 minutes from Castellón itself.
