Fondly
known as "La Casita de l'Amor" and very well named. This lovely Valencian
casita / finca is nestled on the hillside above the town of Villalonga
just over a five minute drive out of the town on a good road. Boasting
a privileged position within the heart of a vast National Park area which
houses the magnificent Safor mountain range this is now declared a protected
area and no further building will be allowed here. The whole area is purely
idyllic and offers breath taking country side with terrain superb for outdoor
activities such as walking, horse riding, mountain biking, hiking, rock
climbing etc. Or just to escape from the towns and maddening crowd into
the virgin country side with a picnic is a pure delight and makes a very
refreshing change from sandy beaches.
Behind
and above the property is a part surfaced road / part single track which
goes to L'Orcha a small traditional Spanish village almost lost in time
and this is a popular route for mountain bikers. Below is the old railway
line from La Reprimala / Villalonga and this travels through the valley
to the same town and this is now a popular retreat for walkers etc. Approx.
11 kms long, the line goes through many tunnels carved out of the mountain
side and runs along the side of the quickly flowing river Serpis. The river
flows over numerous weirs and torrents through rocky gorges, carving its
way through virgin lush green country side from which rise the Safor mountain
peaks above. The whole area is a haven for wildlife and along the route
are numerous fresh mountain water drinking fountains now clearly marked.
The
property was built 12 years ago with top quality materials and to an exceptionally
high standard and occupies a tranquil location, the views from the house
stretch for miles to the tall mountain peaks. On a 3360m2 plot the land
is part virgin hillside and the remaining land houses the vineyard of muscatel
grapes plus some almond and olive trees. The property has its own water
supply collected via the traditional method of cleverly organized channels
collecting any rain water off the roof into a 9000 litre holding tank.
This is then automatically pumped up into a further holding tank on the
roof supplying the water into the villa. The electricity is currently supplied
via solar panels to upgrade the system sufficiently for year round comfortable
living there is an estimate for 9000 euros this would supply sufficient
electricity to even run a washing machine.
The
property has has many charming and individual aspects, there are beam effect
sloped ceilings to the lounge, the kitchen is stone built and is incorporated
within the lounge. Painted with traditional Valencian colour scheme and
with natural paints, it is sold fully furnished and equipped ready to enjoy
