On 3,339m2 of land, including a 1,000m2 flat garden around the house, with amazing country views. Located on the edge of the pretty village of El Puertecico, an area great for country walks.

The A7 motorway and major market town with its award-winning hospital and numerous shops, restaurants, banks, sports and leisure facilities, etc., are less than 14 minutes' drive away. The beaches of San Juan de Los Terreros and Mojacar are 45 minutes' drive away.

1 hour to Almeria and Murcia airports and 1 hour 45 minutes to Alicante airport.

The villa and garden have been positioned to make the most of the fantastic views. You have the benefit of being in the peaceful countryside but with neighbours within walking distance.

Entry into the property is via iron gates into the driveway for numerous cars. The driveway leads around to the rear and side of the villa and to the separate building. A gateway then takes you into the main garden area with swimming pool.

Around the villa, the very attractive gardens of approximately 1,000m2 are split into 3 separate walled areas, mostly tiled and gravelled for low maintenance, with a variety of established plants and trees. The rest of the land is hillside.

To the front of Villa Montaña is a covered veranda, making a lovely outdoor seating/dining area, and overlooking the pool, garden and country views. The front door leads into the semi-open entrance hall with separate W.C. with toilet and sink. To the right is a corridor leading to 2 double bedrooms and the family bathroom.

To the right of the hallway is the large open-plan living and dining room with log-burning fire and patio doors leading out to the side garden and driveway. In the living room, a large window looks out over the garden, pool and countryside.

Just off the living room is the fully fitted kitchen with plenty of cupboard and worktop space. A back door leads out to a second covered veranda/seating/dining area, plus a utility/storage room. The porch leads out to the rear garden with workshop and back onto the main driveway.

From the dining room, impressive stairs lead up to a landing. To the right is a double bedroom. To the left is the large master bedroom with its own walk-in wardrobe and patio doors taking you onto the sun terrace with amazing views. There is a large shower room with wardrobes and double sinks. The upstairs would make a lovely separate apartment.

Back outside, at the end of the driveway, is the separate single-storey building of 80m2, which could be used for a variety of purposes, including a garage, workshop, storage, guest accommodation, or as a music, art or yoga studio, etc. The basics of a bathroom and kitchen are in place. The roof will need repair or replacing, etc. The cost of this and putting the building on the deeds is more than reflected in the advertised price. Local builders and architects may be available.

The villa has mains water, electricity, telephone and internet. Some of the furniture may also be for sale.

Room sizes available on request.
