country house for sale Sax, Alt Vinalopó

About this property

We are pleased to present this lovely and very well constructed finca and just a ten-minute walk to the town of Sax and a little less to a Mini Market and a very good Bar/Restaurant. In fact, the location could hardly be better as the property also gives you fabulous views of Sax Castle and the mountains, but it must be said, there is a certain amount of traffic noise from the Autovia, it is not as noticeable from the garden areas but can be heard more clearly by the swimming pool. This has been taken into consideration in the price.

The property is within a community of five Spanish-owned properties. Originally, it was one large family that owned all the fincas.

You enter the grounds of the property via the gates at the side, which takes you into a parking area where there are two garages and a carport and other spaces for cars.

It is hard not to notice, to the left, a patch of ground that has been ploughed frequently and is approximately 800m2 and ready for fruit trees and/vegetables and everything grows wonderfully well other than citrus due to the height above sea level but, during the season, oranges and lemons can be bought at the market for around 80c per kilo.

The finca is entered via a spacious conservatory which is a lovely area for capturing the winter sunshine and that leads through the main door to a hallway with three of the four bedrooms to the left and right. All the bedrooms are doubles and one backs onto one of the garages, which I would reform into an en-suite bathroom, as there is the previously mentioned second garage and carport.

At the end of the hallway is the open plan lounge/diner/kitchen, which is a lovely space and the kitchen has recently been upgraded.

To the right is the family bathroom and another bedroom.

The interior is bone dry due to the quality of the build and the roof is in first-class condition. The foundations were put in so that a second level could be built if required.

About Sax.

Sax has a population of around 9,000 and is located between the towns of Villena and Elda. The history of Sax goes back to the times of the Moorish occupation beginning during the Eighth Century and little is known of the town prior to that time.

The people of Sax are warm and friendly and the town has a good selection of shops, tapas bars and restaurants, a market is held twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays. As always Sax has its share of fiestas and festivals, the main one being the Moors and Christians festival held during the first 2 weeks of February.
