description

Here we have a very unusually designed large 427m2 urban villa on 1850 square metre plot in the small picturesque Valencian village of Carricola with its 93 inhabitants. Constructed in 1982 this magnificent family villa really stands out from other conventional standard villa designs. Built by its current owners the villa offers good living space with a large kitchen, split level lounge diner, five bedrooms two bathrooms, and a shower room. There is also a large purpose built outside separate BBQ area with bread and pizza oven, accessed via double French doors from alongside the kitchen. There is also another large outbuilding on the lower level, currently used as a storeroom/garage, which could easily be converted into more living accommodation, studio or large workshop if required. The villa is entered via large wrought iron automatic security gates and beautiful stone archway and walls which lead up a natural stone drive to ample parking towards the front of the house. The outside areas consist of separate mature gardens which are planted with various citrus trees, palms, conifers and various Mediterranean bushes and shrubs in different areas set around the property. The villa is entered from the font doors via four wide steps onto a large covered outside terrace. This takes you into the open and well-lit entrance hall. To the left there is a snug/salon area with a huge open stone fireplace. Straight ahead takes you into the front lounge/dining room or right takes you towards the large fully fitted kitchen. This floor contains the large entrance hall, snug/salon, dining room, lounge, large fitted kitchen, bathroom, three bedrooms, and access out onto the side terrace and BBQ area. Up the first floor from the central staircase contains a large bright bedroom with its own large chimney and washing area. There is also a good size fully tiled separate bathroom and a large roof terrace on this level. The lower floors towards the rear of the property are split into two levels. The intermediate level contains a wash room, which leads out onto a fully covered terrace, and also a very large, bright games room. All floors can be accessed from the same internal staircase, which also leads down to the lower floor. This ground floor level can also be accessed from the rear of the property. Here you will find a large wine cellar, bedroom and shower room. Although there is currently no swimming pool, there is a large flat area towards the rear boundary which has been cleared ready for the installation. This area would be in full view from all of the floors towards the rear of the property. Carricola, once ruled by the moors is a popular village for some beautiful country walks and hiking, the most famous to visit the ancient castle tower. The village is well connected to both airports of Alicante and Valencia less than an hour drive away.
