4 Bed Villa for sale
La Romana, Alicante, Valencia, Spain
Full Description
Stunning family villa in a beautiful setting, located midway between the pretty village of La Romana and the small town of Aspe and just 10 minutes from the Hondon Valley you will find this beautiful country home set in a commanding position with the most amazing and expansive views you could ever wish for.
The Villa:
The villa itself is set out over two levels with the main villa being on the upper level (ground floor). The full width 60m2 upper terrace has cleverly been split 60/40 with one part remaining open and the perfect spot to sit out in the sun and admire the views. The remaining 60% is glazed to allow the area to be used all year around as a second lounge and dining room.... however the glass curtains can all be retracted to make the room totally open when needed. This space is the perfect spot all year round for dining, relaxing, entertaining friends and family and taking in the views of the pool terrace, gardens and the mountains in the distance.
The property continues to impress as you enter. The first thing you notice is the high vaulted ceiling across the width of the property. This helps with the light air feeling that permeates throughout the whole property, but when your gaze returns to eye level the newly installed fitted kitchen island takes center of attention. Huge thought went into designing this attractive but ultimately functional space, keeping clutter to a minimum but not sacrificing the practicality expected in the kitchen. The hob on the island has a central extraction system to keep the lines clean. Either side of the built in oven/microwave area are two useful storage spaces, one used as a larder/pantry and the other as a utility room with the washing machine and water heaters.
The kitchen and lounge area are all open plan, and their size is not appreciated on the photographs (the tv is very big). The main features of the lounge are the feature cast iron wood burner and the large walls perfect for displaying your favorite art. All of the windows afford great views.
From a central hallway you will find the accommodation section of the villa. The master bedroom has a new en-suite shower room and the vendors have used bedroom 2 as a dressing room with the added benefit of a sauna (included in the sales price). Bedroom 3 is also used as a storage space. All bedrooms are doubles. To complete the upper level you will find a guest bathroom. Both guest and master en-suite bathrooms have been totally renovated.
The reason the vendors can use bedrooms 2 & 3 in this way is due to the guest accommodation on the lower lever, where you will find a double bedroom, shower room, kitchen and then a blank space that can be used as more bedrooms, second lounge, games, room, office, storage, hobby space.............and next to this space is a storage room accessed via a separate doorway.
Pool & Gardens:
So the villa is impressive...... and so is the exterior of the villa. The villa sits on a 10,000m2 plot and is accessed by a long private driveway leading to remotely controlled electric sliding gates. The lowest level (field) is left au-naturel, but would be perfect for a pony, allotment, large dog run.... The remaining 3 levels are the garden level 1 with many fruit trees, raised vegetable beds, chicken coupe and fruit trees, the next level up is a useful area for guests to park their cars and the pool level (more of that later) and the top level is where you will find the villa, shaded parking and two pretty "secret" gardens.
The pool level is of course the center of attention with the 32m2 private swimming pool with glistening crystal clear blue water and the lovely large pool sunbathing terrace with feature lighting and solar hot water pool shower. Next to the pool terrace you will find the summer kitchen and BBQ area in a lovely wooden pergola.
The property is fully fenced and connected to mains water, mains electricity, *solar system ensuring no more expensive electricity bills and reliable internet. The villa has a centralised hot and cold air conditioning system. The villa is being sold unfurnished however the vendors are happy to negotiate separately regarding the furniture.
Summary:
Often agents will say a property needs to be seen to be fully appreciated, however in this case I think it is really true. This home offers sizeable accommodation without being too much, a large 10,000m2 plot but designed to require minimal maintenance due to the clever use of plant species and of course the environment with peace and tranquility and stunning views, being only 5 minutes from Aspe or La Romana, 12 minutes from the Hondon Valley, 18 minutes from Elche and Novelda and both Alicante and the airport in under 30 minutes.
*The Solar system of 10 panels runs in conjunction with the mains electricity ensuring you have the benefit of mains backup, free solar energy and tiny electricity bills.
