Description complète
A beautiful apartment is on the 6th level (4th floor) of a solid 70s construction block. From the left side and under the apartment there are parking spaces for residents (accessed through a secure remote-controlled barrier). The apartment is in an excellent, move-in condition and fit for permanent living as well as a holiday home. The bedrooms (two of which are generous doubles) are enhanced with balconies that are perfect for alfresco eating and lounging, enjoying the views of the Santa Barbara Castle on the pine tree clad hill to the right and a strip of the blue sea to the left.
The spacious reception room is flooded with light, with large windows overlooking the castle on the mountain.
The immaculate, fully tiled bathroom, with a bidet and a shower cubicle, has a wall-mounted heater for cooler winter months.
A bright and ergonomic kitchen is fully equipped with quality crockery, cutlery, pots and pans, baking trays and built-in appliances. The kitchen leads to a long, glass-clad galley balcony (a view over the backyard, towards the archaeological museum.)
Generous ceilings up to 2.65 m. without any cracks and water stains, with modern chandeliers and floor-lamps. All windows have insect screens, including the large al-fresco balcony. The living room has a new air conditioner/heater. The biggest balcony has a new, remote-control operated awning.
The aspect of the apartment is ideal for the location - 2 bedrooms and a living/reception room on the front, sunny south side, a kitchen and a 3rd bedroom on the north, which keeps it cool in the summer and warm in the winter because of the enclosed galley balcony.
The apartment is sold with high-quality furniture, [e.g Napa leather white sofa from El Corte Ingles, modern extendable dining table with 6 matching chairs], with a TV (satellite antenna), spacious wardrobes in the bedrooms, a cook’s kitchen (with a fridge, Bosch hob and oven and a dishwasher). The utility galley is equipped with the water-heater tank, an Indesit washing machine and a large sink (for washing the sand off your shoes after a day on the beach).
The intercom and key operated foyer of the block is decorated in stunning marble tiles, with a modern elevator and access for people with disabilities, the elderly, luggage and baby strollers, which is rare in many apartment blocks.
The apartment has never been rented. The block is maintained by a quality service-provider with very reasonable annual service charges. All exterior windows and doors have blinds that protect against sandy winds and overheating when the apartment is locked for longer periods. Many of the blinds are electrically operated.
The district is a popular one among the local well-off residents, is green, clean and safe, with exceptionally good road/tram/bus connections to all parts of the city and wider Alicante region and does not get traffic jams.
Plaza Mar II, one of the largest shopping centres in Alicante, is also at a stone’s throw from the block, and is packed with cafes, restaurants, a mega- supermarket [food, clothes, electrical appliances, white goods, home essentials and more], fashion shops, beauty salons, clothes alteration, a pharmacy, a cinema and a food hall.
Alicante Tram-(skytrain), and the MARQ stop is a minute from the block’s entrance. The trams go north to Denia and Benidorm and are fast and frequent. The bus stop to take you to the centre of town is across the road – you are in the centre in just 2 stops. Buses go to all parts of the city. And also North to playa St Juan and Albufereta. 2 minutes walk from the block is the direct bus, the C6 to Alicante International Airport which takes 20-25 minutes (€3.75 fare) via the Central Bus Station, that’s in 10-15 minutes bus-ride. Just a 10-minute drive from the house is the central Grocery and farmer's market of the city – Mercado Central.
