Bungalow en venta en Las Filipinas, Alicante

We present this gem of a bungalow: a one-level house with 2 bedrooms, sunroom and roof solarium, in the sought-after location of Blue Lagoon! Located just a 2-minute walk from the first few bars and 3 minutes from the 24/7 mini market, it is a 10-minute walk to Villamartin Plaza.

Externally, you have a small north-east-facing front garden, ideal for escaping the sun on hot days. The lovely rear garden is south-east-facing and a sun trap for those who love the sun. There is also a fantastic snug area where you can relax and enjoy the summer without being in direct heat, or perhaps turn it into a bar. As you will see in the photos, there is also an area of good-quality artificial grass.

Whilst there is no pool, in the rear garden, if you were to open up the balustrades and make one area, this garden would transform in size and provide room for a full-size pool or a smaller plunge pool. The approximate cost is anything from €12,000 to €20,000, depending on many factors.

The roof solarium is ideal for sun worshippers or for catching better winter sun.

Entering the property, you walk into a glazed terrace area, perfect for sitting in out of the sun and ideal for winter outdoor living away from the chill. This area could easily, subject to planning permissions, be extended to create additional interior space, extending the kitchen and lounge area. You could still retain a side area as an indoor space, preserving the ability to have a sunroom.

Walking into the house, you enter through double-glazed French doors into the open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is spacious and modern, with a side door to the rear garden. The lounge has air conditioning. At the rear of the lounge, you have the master bedroom with an air-conditioning unit, a second bedroom and a bathroom.

Community fees: €130 a year, as there is no pool or garden maintenance.
IBI/SUMA: €319.42 (council tax).

The 24/7 mini market is a 3-minute walk away, and Villamartin Plaza is a 10-minute walk away. There is also a 5-minute walk to the bars of Sliders, Boris's, which is great for playing pool or darts and watching sports on TV, and many other bars. Restaurants include two Chinese restaurants, one Indian restaurant and the fabulous Greek Tavern.

There are also four championship golf courses within a few minutes' drive of the property, with Villamartin being the closest. A long canal runs through Las Ramblas to areas such as Villamartin and San Miguel de Salinas. It is ideal for walking to nearby locations and is also a great cycling route.
