Situated within a few minutes of the traditional market town of Albox, just twenty minutes from the Autovia del Mediterráneo, 25 minutes from the coast and only 40 minutes from the tourist resort of Mojácar and the small fishing village of Garrucha, Casa Cintra enjoys beautiful views over open countryside to the distant mountains. The rural/rustic designation of the surrounding countryside precludes any further house-building in the area.
Fully legal, and built in 2002, with land and gardens (totally fenced and gated) of almost 4,000 sq. mtrs. (one acre) the villa sits on the edge of a small, exclusive development and enjoys considerable privacy with no immediately close neighbours. The built area of the villa itself is approximately 126 sq. mtrs. and there is a further detached building of some 42.5 sq. mtrs. which houses a large garage/workshop and office/study.
The property is not air-conditioned but the present owners, after six years in the house, including one of the hottest summers on record, have not yet felt the need for any air conditioning. The house remains cool in the summer and is warm in the winter. All rooms have excellent ceiling fans and air conditioning is not considered necessary. Nevertheless the house is pre-wired for air conditioners if a future owner should wish to install same.
There is no pool but ample un-overlooked space for one. The property has three olive trees, many almond trees, a fig tree and other vegetation.
Mains electricity is connected and mains water is supplied direct from a commercial water deposit to the house's own underground deposit which has a capacity of some 15,000 litres. The present water arrangements have allowed an uninterrupted supply of water without any of the shortages and cuts experienced elsewhere in the area.
With an average of 320 days of sunshine per annum, a tan is guaranteed. A large modern hospital (rated one of the best in Europe) is only 25 minutes away, and the local medical centre (less than 10 minutes from the house) has doctors, nurses and an ambulance on stand-by 24 hours a day.
Reason for sale is the owners upcoming emigration to New Zealand. |
