Villa for sale in Altea la Vella, Altea, Alicante

This magnificent newly built house is designed under the «One Level Living» approach, in which space design results in a practical and impressive 260 m² ground floor where the bedrooms, the common living areas, the covered terrace, and the pool are all at the same level. The structure is made of reinforced concrete and is insulated on all exterior faces with a 5 cm layer of cellular glass (one of the best insulating materials in the world) produced from recycled glass. It features a ventilated façade clad with natural sandstone panels; in addition, the roofs are insulated with 10 cm of cellular glass and the ground floor slab is also insulated with 5 cm of the same material. This type of construction system is used in northern Europe in prestigious buildings seeking high energy savings performance and, when applied in warm climates like ours, it allows for stable temperatures throughout the year and very low energy consumption. Furthermore, the use of stone for the façades eliminates the need for periodic painting. Throughout the house, large open spaces free of columns prevail. It is distributed over 2 levels. The main access is on the middle floor, where the first living-dining room and the open-plan fully furnished and equipped kitchen are located, a large covered terrace of 50 m², and an infinity-type pool. The master bedroom with dressing room and bathroom is on this same floor. As with 2 other bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. On the lower level, accessible by the elevator or the stairs and also from another street, there is a guest suite consisting of a second living-dining room and a second fully furnished and equipped kitchen, and 2 guest bedrooms, each with a terrace overlooking the garden and its own bathroom.
