Cave home · Resale Alicante · Algueña · Ref.: SB-82001

Tucked away amongst rolling almond groves in the beautiful Alicante countryside, this delightful country villa with its own private cave accommodation offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Peaceful, full of character and surrounded by nature, yet only a few minutes from the welcoming village of Algueña, this is a home that effortlessly combines traditional Spanish charm with modern practicality. Set within a fully fenced plot of approximately 2,465 m², the gardens have been lovingly landscaped with mature palm and olive trees, colourful flower beds and numerous places to sit and enjoy the tranquillity that surrounds you. It is exactly the sort of setting where you can imagine starting the day with breakfast in the sunshine before listening to nothing more than birdsong and the gentle rustle of the breeze through the almond trees. The accommodation is cleverly arranged over two levels, allowing the property to function either as one spacious family home or as two independent living spaces connected by an internal staircase. This flexibility makes it ideal for visiting family and friends, multi-generational living or, subject to obtaining the appropriate licences, providing an attractive rental opportunity. The upper floor forms the principal living accommodation. You enter through a recently refurbished country-style kitchen, offering generous worktops, excellent storage and ample room for a large dining table where family and friends can gather. The kitchen flows naturally into the comfortable sitting room, where feature patio doors open onto a sheltered rear courtyard, creating a wonderful winter suntrap that we have always found to be one of the most enjoyable places to relax during the cooler months. From the central hallway you will find two spacious double bedrooms together with a beautifully modernised family shower room. Every improvement has been carried out sympathetically, ensuring the home retains its welcoming character whilst offering modern comfort. Descending either via the internal staircase or the separate external entrance, you arrive at the cave accommodation. Cave homes have long been appreciated throughout this part of Spain for their naturally cool temperatures during the summer and their comfortable warmth throughout the winter. It is one of the reasons so many people fall in love with them. A shaded terrace welcomes you before entering the cave, where you will discover a cosy lounge, a double bedroom and a charming snug complete with a traditional log burner, creating the perfect retreat during the cooler evenings. Adjacent to the entrance is a practical shower room with utility area, ideal for guests staying in the cave or for anyone enjoying the swimming pool. Outside, the swimming pool takes pride of place, elevated to make the most of the lovely views across both the gardens and the surrounding countryside. On warm summer afternoons, it is difficult to imagine a more relaxing place to spend your time. Having sold homes throughout the Hondon Valley and surrounding villages for over two decades, properties that combine privacy, views and such versatile accommodation are always in high demand. To the rear of the property you will find a useful workshop together with the dedicated solar room housing the batteries and inverter for the efficient 3 kW solar installation. The property also benefits from mains drinking water and an internet connection, allowing you to enjoy country living without sacrificing modern conveniences. One of the greatest attractions of this location is its balance between peace and accessibility. Algueña offers traditional bars, cafés, restaurants, local shops and a popular weekly street market, while Alicante Airport and the Mediterranean coastline can both be reached in approximately 45 minutes. Could this be the peaceful Spanish lifestyle you have been searching for? Can you imagine welcoming family and friends to stay in their own private cave accommodation while you enjoy the beautiful gardens together? The property will be sold unfurnished, although the existing furniture is available by separate negotiation should it be of interest. The Villa is connected to mains water, has solar electricity with battery backup and internet connection. The windows have been replaced and the property rewired.
