A surprisingly spacious family townhouse on a wide, central street, with plenty of on-street parking and a large garage sounds like a big ask. But we have one here in Pruna! It’s a traditional family home, offering 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a spacious living area, a garage with access from the back street and terrace with a utility room large enough for a pool table, storage or additional guest space.

This solid, well-built home features double glazing throughout and is perfectly habitable in its current state. However, some essential updating is needed and someone with vision and an appetite for modernisation work, could transform it into a very comfortable, contemporary abode without losing the traditional feel.

Entering through the traditional San Juan entrance there is a foyer area which leads to two large reception rooms. One of them gives access to a central patio, perfect for alfresco summer dining, a sheltered potted garden, or both!

To the side of the patio there’s a full bathroom with a shower and an airy kitchen diner to the back. The kitchen is fully equipped and features a large walk-in pantry. From the kitchen you can also access the garage, which is large enough for two cars and opens to the back street.

On the first floor there are four bedrooms, two with balconies to the front of the house, one double and one single room. To the back, there are two double rooms, one of them a spacious master bedroom with air conditioning and an ensuite bathroom overlooking the patio. The ample first floor landing is set up as a sitting area and provides layout-enhancing possibilities.

On the second floor there’s a good size terrace where the utility room currently houses a washing machine and the gas water heater but there is plenty of room for additional storage, a workshop, office or leisure area.

The property will need rewiring and some damp/waterproofing on the terrace, were filtering rainwater damaged a corner of the ceiling in one of the bedrooms during last winter’s exceptionally wet weather.

Inhabited by generations of the same family, in recent years this property has only been used as an occasional weekend retreat. Although not a complete project, it could use a bit of TLC and could be easily reenergised as a vibrant family home.
