Villa en Guardamar del Segura, Alicante, España 5 dormitorios, 270 m2 No. 102472

The large (270m2) traditional Spanish style chalet house is set within a gated community, only a 300m stroll to the soft sandy blue flag beach of Playa Moncayo. On entry to the garden, through the recently installed white aluminium door with matching fence, you will find a traditionally styled Spanish tiled garden, with large tropical plants, plus the addition of an above ground-pool, for al fresco relaxing days at home. The house is situated on a corner plot, ensuring extra space on ground level. There are also three tiled terraces on each level, with authentic Spanish rustic style balustrades and ceiling tiles. All terraces have been recently renovated. Access to the house is via the first terrace, which is set up for outside dining. With direct views to the Mediterranean and mountains it’s a pleasure to sit with a cool drink and take in the surroundings. The solid security front door, with a brand new black ornate grill/’reja’, takes you directly into the large open plan living, dining, and kitchen area, which is an impressive 40m2. Part of the ceiling has wooden beams with a unique vaulted ceiling feature. A log burning fireplace with marble surround takes centre stage, giving a good focal point to the space. A spacious kitchen with solid wood furniture, granite countertops, a wooden breakfast bar and windows facing the living area. The bar allows the kitchen the sensation of a separate room while also being open to the rest of the living area. Alongside the kitchen is a useful pantry/storage room. Next to that, is a guest toilet. The floors and stairs throughout the entire house are made from beautiful luxurious marble, giving all the rooms a cohesive feel. All windows are solid wood, with recently renovated Mallorcan sturdy wooden shutters. Access to the lower ground floor and garage is from the living room, via an arched wooden doorway. Downstairs, you will find what could be a self-contained apartment. On entry from the staircase is a spacious living area and full bathroom, as well as a double sized bedroom with a window, built-in wardrobe, and recently installed air-conditioning unit. This room is currently being used as a gym, showing its potential as more than just a bedroom. Access to the double garage. The garage is large enough for two cars, bicycle storage, a motorcycle, and utilities such as the washing machine, tumble dryer, or spare fridge. You can access the house directly through the electric remote-control garage door. It is important to point out that all rooms in the house, including the bottom floor and all the bathrooms, have windows, unlockable security grills and shutters. On the first floor, which is accessed via a staircase from the living room, you’ll find the master bedroom suite with its own terrace, two double sized bedrooms and a newly refurbished family bathroom. The master bedroom suite has two large built in wardrobes, air conditioning, and a full ensuite bathroom. Leading off the bedroom is a newly renovated large terrace which is enclosed by triple aspect windows, with views to the sea and the mountains. The other bedrooms are both double-sized and each has built in wardrobes and air conditioning units. The family bathroom has just received a full overhaul, with a new stylish vanity unit, mirror, wall fixtures and a walk-in shower, including a rainfall shower head. A light well from the roof terrace shines down into the hall, where there is a staircase to take you up to the top floor penthouse. On this top floor there is a large airy attic style bedroom, with wooden beams, double aspect windows, a built-in wardrobe and full ensuite with a porthole style window. Via a separate hallway there is a large 40m2 rooftop solarium terrace with newly refurbished balustrades and brand-new door and window rejas/grills. A recently installed toldos system allows for the part of the terrace to either be totally enclosed, to allow for wind/sun/rain protection and for total privacy; or for all or some sides to be completely open. It’s a flexible solution for outdoor living. The solarium receives the sun all year round, which is perfect for winter sun seekers. The view from the terrace allows for almost 360-degree views of the surrounding area, and for nature fans, a front row view of the flamingo population’s migration route.
