Magnificent 6 Bed Villa in Sax - Probably The Very Best. Magnificent 6 Bed 4 Bath Villa with Guest House, Pool, Wooden Cabin, Gardens, Land in a superb location in Sax Reduced to 336,000€  Occasionally we come across a property that takes our breath away and we walk around taking photos and shooting a video with stupid grins on our faces knowing that we are privileged to have something wonderful on our books.  With properties such as this it is hard to know where to even begin a description and we, fortunately, have the photos and the video available to help as we run out of superlatives.  This Villa is magnificent in many ways. First of all the build quality is in another league, no expense spared, this was built as a Villa for life and for the enjoyment of all the family young and old with nothing missed out.  The location is first class and the Villa stands proudly in over 2.5 acres of land and is centrally positioned so that there is no concept of neighbours although there are one or two, yet it is five minutes drive into the much sought after town of Sax with its amazing infrastructure that allows you to be at Alicante Airport in 35 minutes and a similar time to the beaches whilst it is a town full of culture and good restaurants, bars and cafes.  The lovely driveway takes you along the approach to the villa and then you see it and if a man´s home is his castle then this is that castle. Stepping out of the car you will not easily know where to look first as the gardens and land are so beautiful and designed to be easily maintained.  As you pull yourself together you then find out that this is the rear of the villa and the front is even better where you also find a large modern fountain and a gorgeous swimming pool with pool house to hide the pump and filter. Staying in the grounds you discover what looks like another house, a lot smaller thankfully but it is a perfect small property for guests. We are always honest with our descriptions and the Guest House needs some work to make it into the perfect Guest House, we estimate in the region of 10,000€ in order that it meets the standards of the main house but this would give you a self-contained “casita” with lots of space and features and it has a carport.  Also within the land is a very cute wooden cabin which was added for the grandchildren as a play den when they were small but it could easily be a tool shed or anything else that draws your imagination. There are a number of outbuildings for animals and the owner has pigeons and chickens and there are two spacious kennels.  We better get to the Main House which as we approach it we see an enormous terrace that goes around two sides of the property and something I have never seen before, an exterior four-poster bed on wheels which is amazing, no honestly it is absolutely amazing, what a great touch, I know it sounds ridiculous but it just fits.  Through the patio doors and into the lounge/diner with a beamed ceiling and a staircase of the very highest quality that is as big a feature as is the stunning fireplace. There is currently a dining table and chairs for 12 which gives you an idea of the size of the room.  Along a hallway is the fully fitted modern kitchen and towards the end of the hallway to the rear of the ground floor is a big double bedroom and bathroom so that anyone who has difficulty with stairs has a ground floor suite.  The door which shows a sign saying “Museo” or Museum and a collecting cup that has been put there by the grandchildren just makes you realise the love and enjoyment this villa has given people and it leads down to a basement room with a high ceiling that currently is being used as a wine cellar and pool table room and storage space. In the height of summer this comfortable space stays cool although the villa has both air conditioning and central heating.  The upper floor has five bedrooms and two bathrooms, four of which have patio doors out to private balconies with stunning views across the pool area or the land or out to the mountains.  If this property is within your budget then we are envious and we feel it is an absolute no-brainer.

This is a super townhouse as it is next to the countryside and it offers the best of both worlds, also, it has a very good sized patio area which is a rare thing with townhouses so there is space for pets and you can be walking your dogs, if you have any, by just crossing the road into the large open areas of green land. Casas Del Señor is a village around eight minutes drive to the larger town of Monovar and about a ten-minute drive to Pinoso. The village has a restaurant and a bar just two to three minutes walk away as well as a butchers/mini market a bakery and a Health Centre. It is approximately 35-40 minutes drive to Alicante Airport and the beaches of the Alicante region. The property stretches across two streets and can be entered by the garage to the rear or by the front door. The house is full of natural light and is in need of modernisation but is in very good condition as is the roof and the exterior walls. It is ready for someone to move in and modernise bit by bit. Entering from the front there is a small hallway that leads to a lounge/diner, the three bedrooms are accessed from here, and a small hallway takes you through to a very decent-sized kitchen and a family bathroom. There is a door that takes you to the large patio, the garage door opens out to the patio as well and you can park here if you want but there is plenty of on street and safe parking. These villages are known for their community spirit and safety. Neighbours are always welcoming and very helpful towards our international clients. The patio also has a small toilet. The house has mains electricity and water. The rates are approximately 25€ per month, yes per month which includes waste collection.  There is a bus service to and from Alicante City that takes around one hour and costs around 7€. The population is around 300 and the village is has mountains to all sides. The restaurant Casa Asuncion is known for its fabulous rice dishes and the village of Chinorlet is walking distance and has Casa Reme and Elias Ground floor house for sale in Casas del Señor, a district in the municipality of Monóvar, in the region of Medio Vinalopó (Alicante). This district is located about 12 minutes from both Monóvar and Pinoso. The house is on the corner and also overlooks two streets, so it has a lot of natural light, it also has views of the countryside, so it is as if you lived in the countryside. From the street you access a small hall and then a large living room where we find 3 doors with access to 3 rooms. At the back door of the dining room we go to the kitchen, which then leads to a small corridor with 3 other doors, there is one more room, the main bathroom and another small corridor with access to a large patio, with a small room with a toilet. . In addition, this patio overlooks the back street, with a garage door, so the patio can also be used to store the car. Although one of the advantages is that there are no problems parking at the door of your house. The house has water and electricity. It would also need a bit of reform.

This is almost impossible to describe other than amazing. It is really one large 3 Bed 2 Bath Apartment above an enormous garage that would house 7 or 8 vehicles but can be made into an entire ground floor apartment or anything you choose. Then there is a 70% built second apartment also above the garage that is currently being used as a Summer Kitchen for when the whole family comes round for paella on a Sunday afternoon. I have never seen anything quite like it, absolutely central to the small but lovely town of Salinas and walking distance to everything this is a unique property. Take a look at the photos and the video, all taken without filters or any special lenses for a far better idea than I can describe. It´s perfect for two families or even three. Oh, I nearly forgot that there is a rooftop patio which is 100% private.

If it really is all about location then this is a fabulous property as it is less than 20 minutes walking distance to the lovely town of Villena, a town full of bars, cafe, quality restaurants, culture and excellent infrastructure as it is on the A31 Alicante to Madrid road and has one of only four stations for the AVE, the high-speed train link between Alicante and Madrid that gets you to Madrid in just over two hours in absolute comfort. The property itself is tired and in need of modernisation but it has enormous potential as there is an integral huge garage/workshop. The land is divided into a garden area, pool area and agricultural area with different fruit trees. There are many places to sit and relax or dine alfresco and with plenty of shaded areas for the hot summer months. Mains water and electricity. The plot is fully fenced and there are remote controlled gates at the entrance. Another big plus is that the paperwork has been updated and the property is 100% legal.

We are pleased to offer you this wonderful property that we have for sale in Sax. If we start with the location, it cannot be better located, since it is only 1.2 km from the town, a 10-15 minute walk to the town.So it has the most impressive views you can find, with the emblematic Castle in the background. In addition, another of the luxuries that this property has is the relaxation and tranquility that it has with views of the mountain. Since despite the proximity to the town, there is no annoying noise other than that of the birds. We start with the exterior of the property. From the main road, there are about 300 m. of private road, all fully paved, to the next access door to the property, so there is a double access door to the plot where the house is located. The land in total has an area of 54,000m2 with irrigated cultivation, specifically olive trees, although within the plot of the house, there is an orchard with another type of cultivation, perfect if you like to grow your own fruits and vegetables. One of the favorite areas, next to the orchard, is the large pool that is about 20 meters long, perfect for playing sports if you like to swim. It also has a storage room to store and where the sewage treatment plant is located. Let's go home.In front of the entrance door, there is a small garden with a very nice fountain, but without a doubt, we return to the same thing, it is the beautiful views of the castle, sitting from the canopy.Imagine yourself sitting in a hammock, with your favorite glass of wine, listening to your favorite music and with those views... it couldn't be a better time to relax after a long day of work. We enter the house, we find a spacious living room with a wood stove and oven included, which is unused, so you would be the first to cook a delicious meal here. In front we find the kitchen with a large pantry, and the bathroom with a shower. To the right of this room we come to another larger, elongated room, where the owners have held all kinds of celebrations such as birthdays, lunches or dinners with both family and friends, Christmas events, etc. From this room there is access to the patio where we find the barbecue area and another wood oven, which in turn has access to the large nave, which you can also access from the outside. I would lack a description to put everything you could do in this 100m ship. We go up to the upper floor where we find the 4 bedrooms and another full bathroom with a shower. The main room is big enough to be able to build a custom dressing room, and the best is missing... get up in the morning, raise the blind, go out to the terrace and the first thing you see is the castle and the mountains. Nice way to start the day. The house has gasoi central heating with radiators in all rooms, except in the bathroom on the ground floor.The kitchen and the thermos are gas.The 2nd access door to the plot where the house is located is automatic. Do not miss the opportunity to see this fantastic property.

This 2 Bed apartment could hardly be better located. It is a two-minute walk to the famous Gran Avenida, a wide avenue full of restaurants and shops, meanwhile across the road is a children's park and a basketball or five a side court for older children, and behind the block is another, bigger park next to the Medical Centre and a school. Everything is within a couple of minutes walk. The apartment is on the ground floor, but as the block is raised from the pavement there are seven small steps leading up to the front door as can be seen in the photos. There is loads of on-street parking all around. Entering the apartment, the lounge/diner is on the left of the L-Shaped hallway and then the second bedroom, a single bedroom, followed by the kitchen and then the bathroom and finally a very large master bedroom. The bathroom and kitchen are already fairly modern and do not require any work, the kitchen has a door to the outside space known as " a gallery" where there is space for a washing machine and a dryer etc. The space is not suitable for sunbathing. The apartment has not been used for a number of years and there is some damp to be removed by stripping back the walls but we are confident that this work can be carried out by anyone who enjoys DIY or the cost for a builder would be in the region of 2,500€. If purchased for investment then we would expect a monthly rental of 425€ to be achieved.

Where to begin? More of a fortress than a Villa, a quite unbelievable quality of structure using the very finest materials and built to last a thousand years.  The location is a strange one and it is one of only two houses in the area. It is at the rear of an Industrial Estate and one of Villena´s hospitals yet it is amazingly tranquil and has been built from a low level so that when you are inside the gates and the fully fenced plot it feels like you are in the countryside. The best way I have of describing it is to say it reminds me of Central Park in New York as that is surrounded by buildings but when you are in the park you feel completely surrounded by nature and tranquility. The owner spent a fortune on the build, far more than the sales price but he has suffered a personal loss in his life and wants to return to his hometown of Albacete to be with his family. He has made it clear to us that he will listen to offers but they must be realistic as this is a unique and exceptional property. So, the Villa. Entering by the magnificent front doors there is a floor with 5 Bedrooms and 2 Bathrooms. The Master Bedroom is stunning with an en-suite bathroom and a dressing room. The furniture in all the room is as you would expect and the light switches, I know who cares about light switches, are superb. There is a long lounge/diner and a kitchen that hasn´t been fitted but is plumbed and ready. The reason there aren´t fittings in the property wasn´t quite completed when the owner suffered the personal loss and simply got used to using the kitchen downstairs and the beautiful Summer Kitchen on the grounds and he thought that a buyer may want to choose their own.  Downstairs, well, it´s best you watch the video but there is a massive lounge/diner/kitchen, an equally massive garage, and a bathroom. There is potential to probably double the number of bedrooms and bedrooms if you wanted to. Subject to licenses etc this would make the most fabulous Airbnb property that people would surely return to again and again because it is a unique property. In the land is a superb summer kitchen with a BBQ and an oven and I would use this all the time for cooking. There are two stables but the potential for two more and the swimming pool has been used just twice apparently and is very well located and is separated so that it canñt be entered by small children or pets. I could write pages to be honest but I would love you to watch the video which is shot without any filters or special lenses and the same with the photos.

First of all, let´s get down to the basics, whilst this is a really fantastic opportunity if you haven´t got at least another 70,000€ or you can get away with considerably less if you have building experience. This house has got so much character and it has a brand new roof that cost close to 40,000€, a very rare thing in properties for reform so all the work can be done whilst keeping dry and no way of damp affecting the work. Nearly all the reform work is interior but there is a spacious piece of land that will easily fit a swimming pool that would have total privacy and still room for a patio area for outdoor dining. It´s an exciting project without a doubt. The building is enormous and there is another part to it that needs significant work to make anything of it but it is there and has not had an effect on the selling price so it´s a gift. Ideally, this would be a 6 or 7 Bed Property although it has scope for more and it is located in the countryside although it qualifies as a townhouse, the views are spectacular. With over 300m2 of build and the small within the U shape of the property, the potential is incredible. The access to the property is perfect and it is only a few minutes walk into the village of Chinorlet where there are two bar/restaurants one of which is renowned. There is a Medical Centre and a Mini-Market but the towns of Monovar and Pinoso are only a ten-minute drive away where there are several options for supermarkets etc.

If you are one of those who likes to be spacious and you like sports, this property is for you. Please note that currently there are no actual bedrooms. The property has plenty of building space available for bedrooms, either to the rear, side or front. On a fully fenced 12,117m2 plot, there is a constructed area of 178m2.The fully equipped outdoor area, with a beautiful garden, swimming pool, racquetball court and barbecue area with a fully equipped kitchen, complete bathroom with shower and cellar that could be made into a room to have as a guest house.The racquetball court uses a fair amount of building space so if racquetball isn´t your thing then you can apply for a license to build using the court space. The house has a spacious living room with a fireplace, an American kitchen with a pantry, a bathroom and a toilet. Currently, there are no bedrooms as the owners only use the property at occasional weekends and in the summer and sleep on the sofa beds. The pool is in a lovely area with a terrace for sunbathing and enjoying the sunshine with family and friends. The house was built with the highest quality materials and has a traditional rustic style. The location is as good as it gets with the most stunning views to the mountains and towards the castle. As the property is only 2.5 km from Sax it is possible to walk to the nearest restaurant in around 35 minutes. Why Sax? There are no traffic lights, it has a 13th-century castle and there are no traffic wardens but there are streets full of restaurants, bars and cafes. What? That isn´t enough? Sax is so popular because it is far enough inland to be “inland” yet it is only 30 minutes to Alicante Airport and 35 minutes to the beach.  Access is by the A31 Dual Carriageway Alicante to Madrid road which runs just outside of the town, by rail and coach from Alicante so you can go to the beach and not have to take your car, and now we are only five minutes away from the AVE station at Villena. The AVE is the high-speed train from Alicante to Madrid which has only four stops and will have you in Madrid in 2hrs 9mins for as little as 23€. Sax is dominated by its 13th-century castle known as the Headlight And Guardian Of The Border a landscape of history and rock. When driving back home to Sax after daylight the sight of the castle, fully lit, and seemingly floating in the air is one of the most welcoming sights I have ever experienced. Commercially, Sax was only affected in a minor way by the economic crash as it is the home of three major international businesses selling “persianas y toldos”, window blinds and sun canopies and a shoe industry that means if you recently bought a pair of shoes in a department store, for example, the chances are they could have been made in Sax or nearby Elda.  Recently we have seen the opening of a Consum supermarket, the equivalent of a Waitrose or Marks & Spencer Food Hall and now selling over 100 lines normally found in a British supermarket whilst there has been a Hiperber and Mas y Mas, both excellent supermarkets for as long as I can remember, and if that isn´t enough there is a Carrefour (Think Tesco) eight minutes’ drive away within a shopping mall complex that has two cinemas one of which is showing films in English with Spanish subtitles. Sax is served wonderfully well with schools, our son was eight when we moved here and reluctantly, we put him into a state school, he always went to a private school in Manchester, and within six months he was fluent in two languages and following five years in a secondary school went on to study Pharmacy at Complutense in Madrid one of Spain´s most famous and prestigious universities. Crime rate; Sax has almost full employment and subsequently a very low crime rate. It is a small town where everyone knows each other and a Spanish family would normally feel shamed if a member was in trouble with the police. Their modern values are the ones we experienced growing up in the UK 50-60 years ago. I parked rather stupidly recently on the Hight Street (Gran Via) even by Spanish standards I was naughty as I popped into the bank. I received a phone call within 90 seconds from the Local Police who called me a “dickhead”, well the Spanish equivalent, no ticket no fine just a little humiliation. For health, Sax and Spain, in general, is far superior to the UK. In the town, we have a brand-new Health Centre with eight doctors, two nurses, diabetes clinics and a 24/7 Emergency Walk/In Centre. Ten minutes away in Elda is the remarkable award-winning University Hospital El Virgen De Salud where the surgeons are second to none and the food is atrocious, well it can’t all be good!! Newly opened is the Fibromyalgia centre offering support and therapies for those suffering from acute pain. There are now four Language Schools in the town and the town hall ran a scheme for language swapping. Learning Spanish is a lot less difficult than it may seem and there are new ways of learning that concentrate on Spanish conversation rather than all the "grammatical stuff". There are restaurants and bars aplenty with prices that are at first beyond belief and a three or four-course lunch of good quality can easily be found for 12€ or less although some have now increased to as much as 15€. For a special occasion, there is Casa Mami and La Torreta which are a little more expensive but great food experiences can be had. Coffee and toast for breakfast will cost no more than 2€ and the coffee is possibly the best in Europe. There is a Walking Group, two Golfing Societies, Ladies Who Lunch and probably lots more Social Activities to enjoy. Sax, it´s a great place to live.

First of all the location and the layout, this was originally a very small hamlet of six properties all owned by the same family and the family currently still own five of the six. The “hamlet” has very good access and has magnificent views across the salt lakes of Salinas and to the four mountain ranges. Whilst the location feels remote it is a five minute drive into the town of Salinas and approximately eight minutes’ drive to the bigger town of Sax where there are all the usual amenities, however, in Salinas, you will find a Medical Centre, two mini-markets, a bakery, bars and restaurants, a pharmacy and two banks.  The property is in the middle of three large stone-built houses, please don´t let that be a concern as they have privacy and it would be nigh on impossible to hear your neighbours due to the extreme thickness of the walls.  On entering you are in a large lounge with a stunning feature log-burning fireplace at one end and this leads through at one end to an equally impressive dining room. Straight ahead is an archway to a very large kitchen/diner, the kitchen area is an L-Shape and there is a walk-in pantry at one end. There is also a Double Bedroom and a Bathroom on the ground floor in case there is someone who needs everything on one level.  From the kitchen/diner you can exit into the rear which is an enormous walled patio/courtyard with outbuildings for storage or for a workshop this is where I would put a swimming pool although there is an upright swimming pool included with the property in the land outside of the patio/courtyard.  Upstairs is a simply beautiful landing with plenty of space for a sofa and a couple of bookcases, it´s an area I could imagine spending a lot of time in summer as the interior of the property stays so cool that the family have never even considered air conditioning necessary.  There are four Double Bedrooms upstairs and a family bathroom. Additionally, three of the bedrooms have an alcove that is being used as a dressing area but they could easily be shower rooms to make en-suite bathrooms.  Considering this is a typical Spanish property there is a remarkable amount of natural light especially upstairs.  There is almost 20,000m2 of arable land where olive and almond trees are the norm, the land around the plots is protected and subsequently, there can be no building to spoil any of the views.  To be a neighbour in Spain, especially in the countryside is like being family and the vendors will be living in Murcia after the sale but will spend time in one of the other houses and someone will always be on hand to assist in any way they can without being intrusive.

First thing, do not be fazed in any way about the semi-detached part as this is an extraordinary build quality and there is no chance of hearing anyone or being disturbed. This was originally a family farmhouse with different plots of land that were segregated and each family member built their own home. In this case, the property for sale is attached to another and there is a door on the land through which they can pass through from one house to the other, however, this can be blocked off if you feel it is necessary.

This very large and impressive villa near Monovar has six bedrooms, five bathrooms and an additional wc. The villa has three reception rooms with fireplaces, a kitchen, and two utility rooms. The whole of the upper floor is an enormous recreation room with a pool table. The villa has every luxury, marble floors, a sweeping staircase, dressing rooms, a swimming pool, and garage. The villa is situated in a beautiful woodland setting. The town of Monovar has all the amenities, sports centres, banks, shops, bars and restaurants you would need.  Alicante airport and beaches are just 30 minutes away. Monovar is a small town in Alicante province, with a population of 13,060 people. It is about 15km from Pinoso and like Pinoso it is famous for its marble quarries, shoe making and wine. It is in a pretty, mountainous area, the town stands at a height of 341m (1,119 ft). Monovar has several traditional fiestas during the year, ranging from "Dwarves and Giants" in July to the week-long town fiesta in September in honour of the Virgen de los Remedios. Traditional food, like Pinoso, includes rice made with rabbit and snail, gazpacho manchego - a hearty rabbit stew, migas - fried breadcrumbs with garlic and usually chorizo and of course the local red wine. There are 4 bodegas close by. There is evidence of people living in this area since pre-history. The Romans also lived here, the remains of a Roman villa has been discovered in the nearby village of Maña. In the Islamic era Monovar and Chinorla were fortified with a castle and a tower. The first documented history of Monovar was in the 13th Century. When the Moors were expelled from Spain in 1609 Monovar lost nearly 80% of its population. As a result Monovar became depopulated and abandoned. As a reward for their support of the Bourbon Dynasty in the war of Succession, Philip V gave Monovar the title "Muy noble, fiel, ilustre & leal" (Very noble, faithful, illustrious & loyal) - this was incorporated into their coat of arms with a lily flower. During the 18th century the population and the economy began to grow again, there was a resurgence of agriculture - with the growth of cereals, olives and grapes. This century also saw the construction of some of Monovar's most emblematic buildings, which you can still see today, such as: the Torre del Reloj (clock tower), John the Baptist Church, the Chapel of the Virgin del Remedio and the Hermitage and Convent of Saint Barbara, which overlooks the town from the top of hill, keeping guard over Monovar. In the middle of the 18th century the railway came to Monovar, giving access to the rail line running from Alicante to Madrid and of course this played an important role in the economic development of the town. In the 20th century Monovar finally got the official title of city, as a consequence of its rapid growth. Since the 1920s the main industries have been, soap, flour, shoe-making and marble. The modern day town has many bars and restaurants, small shops, a large supermarket, bullring, two wineries, a theatre/concert hall and a cultural centre. Monovar is a safe and friendly place to live and makes an interesting day visit. It is located on the CV83, the main road that runs from Elda to Pinoso.

This beautiful villa is perfectly located five minutes drive from Sax town centre with the most wonderful views especially at night when looking down on the town and the 13th century castle is lit up.  Remotely controlled gates open to a driveway and gardens with loads of parking space some of which have natural shade.  The few steps lead up to a gorgeous conservatory with 180-degree views and sliding double-glazed windows that can be opened in summer to take advantage of the mountain breeze.  From the conservatory, you enter the spacious, superbly designed lounge/kitchen/diner. The kitchen is fitted to a modern style and is nothing like a traditionally small kitchen and there is a walk-in pantry for storage. The whole space is full of natural light and all the blinds are operated by remote control which I love.  The three double bedrooms are separated from the living area by a hallway, all have natural light and there is a lovely family bathroom.  Downstairs is an underbuild that is an enormous space and has a small kitchen area and a bathroom. It could easily be made into an apartment for independent living.  Below the conservatory is the garage large enough for two cars. There is central heating throughout for the winter months but the property is built using the highest quality materials and heating bills are surprisingly low.  The property has fencing around a 2,500m2 area and there is a further parcel of land to the rear with separate access.  The pool area is amazing and has a gated entry point to keep it safe for small children and pets.  There is one neighbour across the road that uses the property as a holiday home so the property is tranquil without being remote.  I have deliberately kept the description short as it is better to look at the photos, all taken without filters or special lenses and the accompanying video, better still, come and view it.

This is an extraordinary townhouse in an excellent location just at the side of the church in the main plaza in Salinas and close to all amenities. The property has been repossessed by the bank and subsequently offers over 60,000€ will be listened to which makes it very interesting as an investment or as an enormous family house but, in our opinion, an Airbnb would be the most lucrative idea and a Tourist License would not be a problem. The property has had some work done to it. We presume the owners were building a bar/restaurant and the bar area is very impressive.  Other rooms have had reform work done including some new windows and a new shutter for the garage.

Loma Bada is an executive urbanisation built just a five minutes drive from the towns of Elda and Petrer. Originally, the zone was known as "millionaires row" but following the economic crash of 2008 the most expensive properties were hit the hardest and around 50% of the value was lost.

The outside area is enhanced with the benefit of a terrace and solarium. There are fruit trees and a barbeque area perfect for the warm summer days and evenings.

Remarkable 5 Bed 2 Bath Townhouse with Patio and Terrace in Sax  This is one of those properties that, from the exterior, does not suggest how stunning the interior is going to be.  Located in a much sought-after zone in the town, two minutes walk to Consum supermarket and a pharmacy and two minutes in another direction to the old church plaza and the shops on the High Street. It´s an area I know well as we have an apartment just 200 meters away and we love it.  So, first the negatives:- 1. The exterior wants painting.  Ok that´s it and we can move on to all the features:-  1.       Superbly constructed with thick walls, you are never going to hear your neighbours. 2.       Loads of free on-street parking in a very safe are 3.       The property has been built using the highest quality materials 4.       This is a house for life, outgrowing it would be very difficult. 5.       The balance of interior and exterior space is exceptional. It is rare to find townhouses that have exterior space and this has a patio on the ground floor and a balcony terrace upstairs. If you have pets, you have no worries and loads of outside space for children to play and there is a children´s park just one minute away. 6.       It is in walk-in condition and modernising can take place whilst you are comfortably living there. 7.       A bathroom on each floor, both are newly installed and modern 8.       Two Bedrooms downstairs and three bedrooms upstairs but the house can also be divided into two separate living areas rather easily. 9.       If you prefer to have only bedrooms upstairs then a completely separate dining room can be made, although the current lounge/diner is a big space, and the other bedroom downstairs could be an office or a den. 10.   The kitchen has modern units and is traditional Spanish style as in it is compact and the family used to cook the majority of their food outside on the patio as is the way things are done here. 11.   There is a stunning large lounge/diner area upstairs as well as downstairs. If you have children there are so many options available. 12.   Air conditioning in the two lounge/diners, however, due to the construction the house remains relatively cool even in the summer. 13.   The price of 145,000€ is 30,000€ less than our valuation and obtaining a mortgage would be a formality. 14.   Nearly all the windows have been replaced and there are some tilt and swivel but all are high-quality double-glazed to keep out the cold in winter and the heat in summer and all have blinds fitted. 15.   The price is amazing, I know I have already said that but it´s worth two mentions.  16. Beautiful feature Log-Burning Fireplace and electric heaters. 17. 600MB Fibre Internet about to be upgraded to 1MB. 18. Two minutes walk to the market on a Monday for all your fresh fruit and vegetables locally grown. Honestly, yes an honest Estate Agent, a rare thing indeed but remember I have an apartment just around the corner and it would be easy to find where it is so I would be a fool to even mislead anyone, this is a stunning property and should sell within the first few viewings. Why Sax? There are no traffic lights, it has a 13th-century castle and there are no traffic wardens and the streets are full of restaurants, bars and cafes. What? That isn´t enough? Sax is so popular because it is far enough inland to be “inland” and a traditional Spanish town yet it is only 30 minutes to Alicante Airport and 35 minutes to the beach and the nearest beach allows dogs. Access is via the A31 Dual Carriageway Alicante to Madrid road which runs just outside of the town. Sax is superbly served by public transport and there are regular trains and buses to Alicante so you can go to the beach and not have to take your car, and now we are only eight minutes away from the AVE station at Villena. The AVE is the high-speed train from Alicante to Madrid which has only four stops and inexplicably we have one of them. After boarding you will be in Madrid in 2hrs 9mins for as little as 9€ or, there are other promotions from 23€. Let us stick with the town of Sax for now rather than escaping to the beach or the capital city of Spain. Sax is dominated by its 13th-century castle known as the Headlight and Guardian of The Border a landscape of history and rock. When driving back home to Sax after daylight the sight of the castle, fully lit in a variety of colour, and seemingly floating in the air, it is one of the most welcoming sights I have ever experienced. Commercially, Sax was only affected in a minor way by the economic crash as it is the home of three national and international businesses selling “persianas y toldos”, window blinds and sun canopies and a shoe industry that means if you recently bought a pair of shoes in a department store in the UK, for example, the chances are they could have been made in Sax or nearby Elda. Recently we have seen the opening of a Consum supermarket, the equivalent of a Waitrose or Marks & Spencer Food Hall whilst there has been a Hiperber and Mas y Mas, both excellent supermarkets for as long as I can remember, and if that isn´t enough there is a Carrefour (Think Tesco) eight minutes’ drive away within a shopping mall complex that has two cinemas one of which is showing films in English with Spanish subtitles. Sax is served wonderfully well with schools, our son was eight when we moved here and reluctantly, we put him into a state school, he always went to a private school in Manchester, and within six months he was fluent in two languages and following five years in a secondary school went on to study Pharmacy at Complutense in Madrid one of Spain´s most famous and prestigious universities. Crime rate; Sax has full employment and subsequently a very low crime rate. It is a small town where everyone knows each other and a Spanish family would normally feel shamed if a member was in trouble with the police. Their modern values are the ones we experienced growing up in the UK 50-60 years ago. I parked rather stupidly recently on the Hight Street (Gran Via) even by Spanish standards I was naughty as I popped into the bank. I received a phone call within 90 seconds from the Local Police who called me a “dickhead”, well the Spanish equivalent, no ticket no fine just a little humiliation. For health, Sax and Spain, in general, is far superior to the UK. In the town, we have a brand-new Health Centre with eight doctors, two nurses, diabetes clinics and a 24/7 Emergency Walk/In Centre. Ten minutes away in Elda is the remarkable award-winning University Hospital El Virgen De Salud where the surgeons are second to none and the food is atrocious, well it can’t all be good!! Newly opened is the Fibromyalgia centre offering support and therapies for those suffering from acute pain. There are now four Language Schools in the town and the town hall ran a scheme for language swapping that well may be run again. Learning Spanish is a lot less difficult than it may seem and there are new ways of learning that concentrate on Spanish conversation. There are restaurants and bars aplenty with prices that are at first beyond belief and a three or four-course lunch of good quality can easily be found for 12€ or less. For a special occasion, there is La Torreta but also there are great option such as La Braseria, Camila and La Senda. Coffee and toast for breakfast will cost no more than 2,50€ and the coffee is possibly the best in Europe. We have a Walking Group, two Golfing Societies, Ladies Who Lunch and lots more Social Activities to enjoy. Sax, it´s a great place to live.
