This detached villa, known as ‘San Cristóbal’, is ready for its next chapter with new owners. It sits on a sizable, securely fenced plot, providing a good deal of privacy. While you’re enjoying the peace, you might notice the occasional squirrel peering from the surrounding pine trees. The villa was designed by architect David Rico, who is recognized for his constructions in the area, and its solid build is partly due to steel foundation beams. Significant updates were carried out between 2022 and the present, giving the villa a contemporary feel while preserving its original Spanish character, evident in the floors, ceilings, and the appealing tiled veranda.
The villa is spread across two levels, each with its own entrance. The upper floor contains a generous living and dining area, a substantial kitchen, a laundry room, a bathroom, and five bedrooms. One of these bedrooms includes an en-suite bathroom. The large terrace provides extensive views, both day and night. The garden is illuminated by solar lighting, creating a pleasant ambiance. From a higher point on the property, there are far-reaching views towards Elda, which are particularly striking after dark.
The ground floor offers a flexible space that can be adapted to your specific needs. A large room with a fireplace opens directly onto the terrace and the swimming pool area. Nearby, there’s a toilet, a substantial storage area with a lock, and another large room accessible via a garage door. These areas are well-suited for use as a garage, storage, a fitness space, or a home office. The arrangement also lends itself well to creating a separate, well-appointed guest suite, or potentially two.
Updates and Features
The villa has been fully coated in white paint, featuring a 15-year warranty from AkzoNobel. The electrical system has been completely replaced with modern sockets. The swimming pool has new tiling, two RGB pool lights, anti-slip grey tiles on the surrounding terrace, and a new pump. Both bathrooms have undergone complete renovation, now featuring walk-in showers with glass doors, rain showerheads, contemporary vanity units, ventilation, heated mirrors with integrated lighting and Bluetooth connectivity, raised toilets, and light-colored tiles for a clean look.
The kitchen has been modernized with white, handleless cabinets and a wooden countertop. It comes equipped with an extractor hood, an induction hob, a convection oven, a dishwasher, an extra-wide fridge-freezer, and a washing machine. All windows in the villa are double-glazed. A new solar shower has been installed by the pool, and a heat pump, controllable via an app, is available for pool heating. New air conditioning units (providing both hot and cold air) are also app-controlled. A new pellet stove has been fitted, with an additional heat duct extending to the kitchen and hallway. A new 80-liter boiler has been installed.
The property benefits from 12 solar panels, each with a capacity of 455W, significantly reducing energy costs. The villa is connected to mains electricity and water supplies.
