Finca/Country House for sale in Salinas, Alicante

Lovely 3 bedroom 1 bathroom country house close to the village of Salinas with swimming pool and private orchard. A great location, a countryside villa in the countryside with breathtaking views but only yet only an easy ten minute walk into the town (1km) via a tarmac road. A remote-controlled entrance gate provides access to this villa which sits on a 11800m2 plot. There are many areas offering natural shade from mature trees with space to park a number of vehicles. The property sits within a fenced area of approximately 3,000m2, whilst the private orchard of olive trees is in the open part of the plot. The current owner is happy to continue to maintain the trees for the new owners and share the yield of olive oil produced. There is a private 9 x 5 swimming pool with a cover and the terrace around it is fenced (but easily removable) so that pets and/or small children cannot enter. There are a number of kennels and outbuildings as the owner kept dogs, birds and chickens. There are two large sheds and a BBQ area. The Villa is entered via the lovely covered terrace with views to the mountains and is a lovely place to relax in the shade. The open plan lounge/diner/kitchen is spacious with a new hot/cold air conditioning unit. Furthermore there is a feature log burning fireplace for the cooler winter evenings. A hallway separates the living area and the bedrooms - three good size double bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes of good quality. This is a very well-priced property and perfect for all year-round living or for a holiday home. The house offers plenty of privacy but neighbours are nearby.
