Full Description
We are pleased to present this lovely country house located in the peaceful countryside of Villena, just under a 10-minute drive from the town itself. Villena is a large and well-serviced town where you will find supermarkets, shops, bars, restaurants, schools, medical facilities, sports facilities, and everything needed for day-to-day life.
The property sits on a fully fenced plot of approximately 10,500 m² and offers a spacious main house, private swimming pool, large garage/workshop, warehouse, outbuildings, mature gardens, and a productive cherry orchard with approximately 300 cherry trees. The cherry orchard is a real asset to the property, offering good potential for additional income each year.
Inside the Property
The main house is set over two floors and has two separate entrances, one on the ground floor and another on the upper floor from the covered front porch. The layout offers plenty of flexibility and could be suitable for a large family, guests, or even the possibility of creating more independent living areas if desired.
Entering through the ground floor entrance, you are welcomed into a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room. This is a lovely kitchen area with a breakfast bar, good storage, and plenty of countertop space. In the centre of the room, there is space for a dining table, making this a practical and sociable area for everyday living.
Off the kitchen/dining room, there is a very spacious bedroom, currently arranged with a double bed, a single bed, and an office area. This is a large and versatile room which could be used in different ways depending on the buyer’s needs.
Also on this floor, there is another room currently used as a utility/storage room, which could potentially be used as an additional bedroom if required. To complete this level, there is a family bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Near the ground floor entrance, there is a pellet burner which heats this area of the house and creates a warm and cosy atmosphere during the cooler months. From here, the staircase leads up to the first floor.
First Floor
Arriving on the first floor, you immediately get a great sense of space and natural light. This level opens into a large open-plan living and dining room with a bar area, high ceilings, wooden beams, and a row of high-level windows near the roofline, allowing plenty of natural light into the room. Together with the other windows and patio doors, this creates a bright and welcoming main living space.
This is a fantastic entertaining area, with plenty of room for relaxing, dining, and spending time with family and friends. There is also a large pellet burner and an air conditioning unit, making the space comfortable throughout the year.
A short hallway leads to a modern family bathroom with a walk-in shower. There is also a room currently used as storage/office space, which could be used as a single bedroom if required, as well as a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes.
The primary bedroom is also located on this floor and benefits from built-in wardrobes, air conditioning, patio doors leading out to the covered front porch and swimming pool area, and a recently renovated en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower and a double vanity unit.
From the living room, there are patio doors leading out to the covered front porch, as well as a separate main entrance door. The covered porch overlooks the swimming pool area and enjoys beautiful views towards Villena and its castle, which is especially impressive when lit up at night.
Outside the Property
The outdoor space is one of the main features of this property, offering several areas for relaxing, entertaining, gardening, and enjoying the countryside setting.
From the covered porch, the terrace extends towards the swimming pool area with artificial grass, creating a lovely spot for sunbathing and outdoor seating. A staircase leads down to the pool area and also continues down to the ground floor level.
The private swimming pool is a generous size, approximately 10 x 5 metres, and is surrounded by plenty of terrace space. Around this area, there are mature trees and planted areas, including a beautiful century-old olive tree which provides natural shade and adds character to the garden.
In the corner of the pool area, there is a summer kitchen and pergola, creating a fantastic space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The summer kitchen includes a barbecue area, kitchen space, and a traditional wood-fired oven.
The property also has a spacious garage on the ground floor of the main house, with a workshop area to the rear and plenty of storage space.
Land, Outbuildings and Orchard
The plot is fully fenced and has a mixture of garden areas, mature trees, fruit trees, olive trees, and the productive cherry orchard. There are approximately 300 cherry trees, which can provide a good yearly yield depending on the season.
There is also a carport area and an additional outbuilding which was previously used as a workshop or for animals. This building would benefit from updating or renovation, but offers useful additional space.
Towards the far end of the plot, there is a large warehouse/garage of approximately 340 m², with water and electricity connected. This is ideal for storage, vehicles, agricultural use, machinery, or even for someone needing space for a motorhome, workshop, or business use. There is also another entrance at this side of the plot, providing easy access directly to the warehouse area.
Optional Guest Accommodation
The property also includes the option to purchase a static caravan which is currently used as independent guest accommodation.
This guest unit measures approximately 30 m² and includes two bedrooms and one bathroom. It is fully independent and has its own solar power system, making it ideal for visiting family, guests, or potential rental use.
The static caravan is not included in the main sale price and is available as an optional extra for 38,000€. It can remain on the property or be removed if preferred.
Additional Features
The property benefits from mains electricity, mains drinking water, agricultural water, internet, septic tank, pellet burners, air conditioning in the living room and primary bedroom, fitted kitchen, utility/storage room, built-in wardrobes, private swimming pool, summer kitchen, barbecue area, wood-fired oven, covered porch, garage/workshop, large warehouse of approximately 340 m² with water and electricity, carport, mature gardens, olive trees, fruit trees, and approximately 300 productive cherry trees.
The house has radiators installed and was previously connected to a central heating system, although the system itself is no longer working and would need replacing if a buyer wished to use central heating again. The current owner has found the pellet burners to be more than sufficient.
Furniture is not included in the sale but may be negotiable.
This is a spacious and versatile country property in a beautiful rural setting, offering a large main house, excellent outdoor areas, a productive orchard, extensive outbuildings, and optional guest accommodation. It would make a fantastic family home, countryside retreat, or property with potential for agricultural, rental, or rural business use
