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. View more View less Si eres de los que te gusta tener amplitud y te gusta el deporte, esta propiedad es para ti.
En una parcela de 12.117m2 totalmente vallada, encontramos una superficie construida de 178m2.La zona de exterior totalmente acondicionada, con un bonito jardín, piscina, pista de frontenis y zona de barbacoa con cocina totalmente equipada, baño completo con ducha y bodega, la cual se podría acondicionar como habitación para tener una casita para invitados.
La vivienda cuenta con amplio salón comedor con chimenea, cocina americana con despensa , un baño y un aseo. Actualmente no hay dormitorios porque con el salón tan amplio con varios sofás camas se puede vivir, pero no habría problema para poner una habitación en el interior de la casa, la cual llevaría un coste aproximado de 2.600€ y estaría hecha en un máximo de 7 dias. No obstante se podría ampliar hacia la marquesina para añadir más dormitorios.La marquesina, en forma de L, tiene una bonita barbacoa con horno de leña y un pequeño trastero. Al frente está la piscina con suficiente espacio para tomar el sol, o para poner una gran mesa y disfrutar de los dias de verano acompañado de familia y amigos.
La casa fue construida con los mejores materiales y tiene un estilo rústico, muy bonito que nunca pasa de moda.
Además, detrás de la casa, hay terreno suficiente para cultivar tus propias frutas y verduras.
Lo mejor sin duda, es la cercanía a la población, ya que se encuentra a tan solo 2,5km. 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.
