5 bedroom Villa for sale

What a privilege to be able to offer for sale this unique 5 BEDROOM, 5 RECEPTION ROOM, 3 BATHROOM VILLA WITH POOLThe current owners have transformed a standard "villa with pool" into a rustic/contemporary fusion with style and class.  The villa is bright and airy, spacious but not too big.  The design has been very cleverly considered to offer useful living accommodation, thus giving a new owner the freedom to use the rooms as they wish given how flexible the accommodation layout is.  There is also the opportunity to change the function of some rooms into additional kitchen or bathroom for blended families.  The outside space wraps around the villa with the attractive pool area, and has two enormous terraces which give you practical outside living space along with beautiful mountain, countryside and sea views. Located in the traditional hamlet of  Burjulu, the villa is a 7 minute drive from Cuevas del Almanzora and just 5 minutes to the beach!  An hour in the car will get you to both Almeria and Murcia International airports.  Burjulu itself benefits from a quaint Spanish bar to accommodate it´s residents when they are in need of a cold beer and a catch up!  There are two local restaurants each end of the village which offer tasty tapas and Menu del Dia.  There are numerous walks in the area, and why bother taking the car to the beach when it is a 20 minute cycle ride to Villaricos beach, or a scenic walk if you fancy exerting yourself!  Not forgetting of course the famous Desert Springs Golf Resort which is a few minutes drive away.Cuevas del Almanzora is a typical Spanish market town with the usual shops, supermarkets, chemists etc and the local market is held in the Plaza del Castillo, although there is also an indoor market. The narrow streets lead through the town up the hill  to the Castle which now houses the local police station, a museum giving details of the history of the area and there is also a quaint art gallery.  If you get the urge  for a spending spree, you have large shopping centres and retail parks at Lorca, Murcia, Cartagena and even La Zenia if you fancy a daytrip.The villa benefits from pre-installed air conditioning, ceiling fans, downlighters and remote control electric entry gates.
