Villa for sale in La Alfoquia, Zurgena, Almería

This top quality villa sits on a walled and fenced plot of 1472m², which is tucked away at the edge of the village overlooking the rambla, and is a real private haven. It is an ideal setting for those who do not want an estate location, but a stand-alone property set amidst a Spanish community of detached traditional style properties, and within easy walk of facilities. There are numerous tapas bars and restaurants within a couple of minutes walk of this property, a supermarket (which is also open on Sunday mornings), doctors surgery, vets, hair and beauty salons etc. The Mediterranean golden beaches of Vera Playa and Mojacar are an easy 20 to 30 minutes' drive away via nearby motorway connections. The larger town of Albox is a 10 minute drive, with many more supermarkets, shops, 24 hour medical centre etc. There are three airports within an easy commute, Almeria and Murcia an hour in opposite directions, and Alicante 2 hours.

There are two sets of double electric gates, so that you can drive in and park and drive straight out the other side. There is a solid wood car port and a very useful storage shed to the rear. The land is urban so if a block-built garage is required, this could also be built with a license from the local town hall.

Entering through the double gates, the beautiful gardens are laid to gravel with an array of established trees, Mediterranean shrubs and plants, which provide a beautiful haven of colour, and offer complete privacy, and surround this beautifully imposing 2 storey property. To the front is a covered terrace with concrete columns from which you can sit and enjoy the gardens. To the rear is a beautiful 10 x 5 swimming pool, with roman end surrounded by terrace for relaxing and soaking up the sun's rays. There is a large tiled pool side shower, and various seating areas for different times of the day or evening, and from which to enjoy the peace and tranquility, and the views of the mountains. Again, the pool area is completely private, not overlooked and surrounded by beautiful trees and shrubs. A couple of steps lead down to a lower level, with established fruit trees and access to the swimming pool pump. Overlooking the pool area, is a whopping 27m² covered terrace which is fly free, and is a beautiful space from which to sit and enjoy the gardens and the views, for alfresco dining, entertaining etc. There are numerous lights around the garden, which light up the space and the villa at night, turning it into a very pretty oasis of colour.

The villa is a spacious 163m² over two floors and comprises of, from the front terrace, beautiful traditional double wooden doors, which open into a very spacious open plan lounge and dining room. This is light and airy, with high ceilings and a mixture of modern and character.
