Sax, Valencian Community 03630

We are pleased to present this lovely country house in Sax. Very cleverly, the owners have used their abilities to ensure that it is a house that can appeal to everyone its neutral in a way but full of character and every modern convenience, from remotely controlled canopies to Air Conditioning in every room. The access is outstanding, and the property can be reached from the town of Sax in different ways, but all are by tarmac roads, and they lead to remotely controlled gates and then a long driveway past the olive grove to a parking area where there is an option for cover if required. The property is entered via the long conservatory, which is the room you will spend the most time in when not outside, as it has spectacular views over to the mountains and to the amazing pool and poolside lounge and bar areas. Yes, this is a house for entertaining as well as being tranquil, private and far from remote. There are neighbours but everything is secluded couldnt be more perfect in my opinion. So, the conservatory can be entered from the front or from the side, leading to an L-Shaped terrace where you can have sun or shade and then you can access the pool area using the few steps down and this area can be closed off if you have very young children and/or pets. More about that area later. From the conservatory you enter an immaculate lounge/diner/kitchen with a feature log-burning fire with an open brick surround. The kitchen is spacious and has high-quality units. There is a passageway to the bedrooms and one of the bathrooms. This is something I love because I always believe, when possible, to separate the sleeping areas from the living areas. One of the bedrooms is a small single that possibly would be best used as a home office, as there is excellent Internet in the area. The second bedroom is a Double and the Principal Bedroom has a beautiful en-suite bathroom. All the bedrooms are light and airy. A second new, modern bathroom and a Utility Room are off the far end of the lounge/diner. All the bedrooms have A/C, as has the lounge/diner and all the units are inverters so can be used as a relatively economical way of heating in winter. Have I saved the best until last? Im not sure as both interior space and exterior space are fabulous but I guess the new swimming pool are with a stunning lounge and bar is breathtaking. Just to top things off, there is a decorative toilet for guest use and a pump room and loads of terracing, but I imagine the lounge must be one of the most relaxing areas I have seen at a country property. Its superb and have a look at the photos taken in the evening with all the lighting. About Sax. The picturesque town of Sax tumbles down a hillside in the Vinalopó Valley, in south-eastern Spain and is one of a series of towns and villages in this region of the Costa Blanca which are dominated by castles. Sax has a population of around 9,000 and is located between the towns of Villena and Elda. The history of Sax goes back to the times of the Moorish occupation beginning during the Eighth Century and little is known of the town prior to that time. The people of Sax are warm and friendly and the town has a good selection of shops, tapas bars and restaurants, a market is held twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays. As always Sax has its share of fiestas and festivals, the main one being the Moors and Christians festival held during the first 2 weeks of February. The Castillo de Sax (Castle of Sax) which is lit up at night, was originally built on a limestone ridge during the Tenth Century and the Levante tower from the Twelfth Century still survives today, the keep and courtyards were built at a later date. Despite its strong defensive position, both Sax and its castle were taken by troops under Jaime I of Aragon in 1239 and later in 1476 Sax became part of the Marquisate de Villena, within the province of Murcia. During the War of Spanish Succession (1701 1714) Sax sided with Felipe V who conferred the title Muy
