This three storey townhouse once formed part of a beautifully elegant merchant’s house, built from the same stone that was used for the Fortaleza de la Mota, the castle on top of the hill. It is a very solid building, with thick structural walls and high ceilings. It is likely that the original beams exist on the ground floor, just waiting to be exposed.

The house is in good order, but it just needs an injection of care and attention. It lacks soul at the moment, but this can easily be restored.

Ground Floor

The front door opens from beneath a porch and into a small hallway to the side of which there is a space storage area for coats and miscellaneous items.

Small sitting room, dining room and a large kitchen that needs to be fitted. Ground floor shower room and a sliding door to a small patio courtyard open to the sky.

First Floor

There are two large bedrooms on this floor, separated by a room that could be used as a reading room or sitting room. Bathroom. The main bedroom at the front of the house has a Juliet balcony from where there are views up to the Castle.

Second Floor

Again, there are two bedrooms with a sitting room or additional bedroom separating them. The front bedroom is smaller than that on the first floor, but would make a very comfortable single room. The larger of these two bedrooms has a sliding door onto a balcony with enough room for a small table and a chair or two.

This is a great house for anyone who wants to be a part of a bustling market town, in a cobbled and historic lane that leads in one direction up to the castle and in the other direction down into the town. Alcalá la Real has everything you might need in a commercial centre.

The house is something of an empty shell that needs a little interior refreshment and some touches of interior design to create a stylish and comfortable family home.
