Interior

Entering through the main door, you are welcomed into a bright and spacious living/dining room with tall beamed ceilings and large double-glazed patio doors that flood the room with natural light. The original exposed cave stone wall creates a striking rustic feature, giving the space real character.

Adjacent to this space you have the recently fitted modern kitchen, finished to a high standard and fully equipped, including a generous central island. An archway connects the kitchen to a cosy extra dining area, and behind this space, curtains open to reveal a small office area and the internal staircase that takes you up to the first floor.

Upstairs, you’ll find a lovely bedroom with a good-sized private balcony overlooking the pool and terraces, with far-reaching views across the valley towards Abanilla.

Cave Section

A separate door from the main living area leads into the cave portion of the property. As you step inside, you wouldn’t even know you were in a cave: the ceilings are high, and the space feels open and welcoming.

To the left is a double bedroom.
To the right is the family bathroom with walk-in shower and natural light.

Continuing deeper into the cave, there is:

A small bar area
Another double bedroom
The generous primary bedroom, which features a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom with jacuzzi-style bathtub

This area also includes a very cosy second living room with a fireplace. From this snug lounge, a hallway links back toward the internal staircase near the kitchen, creating a practical circular layout through the house.

Several rooms in the cave section, including two bedrooms and the family bathroom, benefit from windows to the outside, bringing in fresh air and daylight.
