Moorish-Style 2 Bed, 3 Bath Villa in Vera with Pool, Garden & Unique Interiors

This striking Moorish-style villa in Vera, Almería, built in 2004 and masterfully decorated by Moroccan artisan Rachid Benmaach, offers a rare blend of Moorish architecture, handcrafted detail, and serene outdoor living. Set on a generous plot of 1,000m², the terracotta-toned home features two domes, a veranda with traditional arches, and a Nasrid-style fountain reminiscent of the Alhambra.

Inside, the villa boasts two expansive suites - one on each floor - both with fitted wardrobes (one with a separate dressing room and bathtub and the other a fireplace and walk-in shower), upper suite opens to a tranquil tea terrace with distant views of the Sierra Cabrera mountains. The main living area includes a spacious salon with high ceilings, a separate dining room, guest cloakroom, and a large modern kitchen connected to a utility room and patio with fountain and ornate metal features that can also be seen from the lounge and dining room. Traditional elements such as muqarnas, zouak, silk curtains, and hand-carved woodwork (including the large front and back doors) infuse the home with rich cultural character.

The landscaped garden surrounds a large pool with a built-in bench, perfect for cooling off on warm summer days. Beside it, a jasmine-draped pergola shelters the outdoor dining area and built-in BBQ. The garden also features a decorative fountain with water channel, and a dog kennel to the back of the villa. Vehicle access is via an automatic gate, with covered parking.

The property benefits from air conditioning, alarm system, high-speed internet and double glazing throughout. Planning regulations allow for the possibility of adding up to two further bedrooms and a bathroom on the upper level, subject to approval.

Ideally located between Vera town and the beaches of Vera Playa, the villa offers easy access to shops, supermarkets, restaurants, healthcare, schools, and equestrian centers. Several golf courses, including Valle del Este and Desert Springs, are within a 10-15minute drive.
