The private solarium is accessed via an internal staircase which leads from the galería (utility room) to the rear of the kitchen. You can enjoy great views from the solarium, including the nearby pink salt lake, Torrevieja and the Mediterranean in the distance.
There is level access from the street, and double gates allow private parking in the front garden. A covered terrace/verandah to the front of the property is a relaxing place to stay out of the heat.
Whilst the property could benefit from some modernisation, it is ready to move into, and the solarium floor has been retiled in recent years.
The total build size is 72 m2, with the front garden measuring approximately 42 m2, and the property was constructed in 1990. There are no community fees to pay. The urbanization has padel, tennis and petanca courts a short walk from the property and also a childrens playground. The Swan pub is the nearest bar which is 350 metres from the house. San Miguel church square is 1,200 metres or a 15 minute walk away. You can enjoy a cool drink there and watch the world go by (quite slowly!) The town open-air swimming pool is a similar distance away, which you can enjoy in the summer months for a small daily entrance fee (lifeguard in attendance).
This fantastic home is offered for sale by Villas Fox, having been appointed directly by the owners. We have by far the best selection of properties in the San Miguel de Salinas area. Our office is on the San Miguel ring road (Ronda Oeste) between the Repsol petrol station and the Masymas supermarket.
San Miguel de Salinas
San Miguel de Salinas is a very popular Spanish town just 15 minutes drive from the beaches of Mil Palmeras, Campoamor, Cabo Roig, La Zenia, Torrevieja, La Mata, Guardamar etc and surrounded by beautiful countryside which includes citrus and almond groves and the national park of Sierra Escalona right on our doorstep. You can walk and cycle for miles along the canal which runs right next to the town.
There are a great variety of bars and restaurants, both Spanish and international (almost 30 in the town centre alone, which means the annual tapas run event is very popular!!). If you are looking for a holiday destination or a place to live all year round, San Miguel is a great choice as it has all amenities (primary and secondary schools with excellent reputations, banks, health centre which never closes, 3 pharmacies, large outdoor swimming pool, football and athletics stadium, 5-a-side football pitch, tennis courts, padel courts, basketball courts, petanca, crown green bowls etc) and a healthy mix of Spanish and foreign neighbours.
The pace of life is gentle and relaxing, and prices in the bars tend to be more reasonable than the coast (a glass of good red wine from the barrel will set you back just 50 centimos in some of the bars). The weekly Wednesday street market is a great opportunity to stock up on locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables, hams, cheeses, olives, clothes and shoes etc, before having a drink and tapas in one of our friendly tavernas!
There is a good local taxi service and buses run several times daily to Torrevieja, Orihuela and Murcia. Alicante and Murcia airport are both approx 40 mins dr...
