Sax, Valencian Community

Reference: JBYV-T907. Beautiful 4 Bed 3 Bath Finca Just 500 Metres from Sax 399,995 We are very fortunate to live in Sax, its a wonderful and welcoming town that is traditionally Spanish but just 35 minutes at most from the airport at Alicante, the city and the beach. Not only that, but with full employment, it is safe for everyone and there is so little crime. Sax also has some incredible property; it has always been known as a wealthy town due to the industry and this means there are some fabulous properties, but very few ever come up for sale. This fully reformed and modernised Finca is among the very best of the best because it has been updated with the highest quality materials and with love and a great amount of thought into how to get the very best out of a country property for full-time living or for a secure holiday home. I was talking to another agent just a few days ago and he asked me if I had something special for his clients that was within walking distance from town. Now, estate agents in general can be a little imaginative with "walking distance", but this is no more than a five-minute stroll to bars and restaurants, shops and the superb new Medical Centre. So, back to the other agent, I told him about this house and he asked what nationality the owners were. "Norwegian", I replied and he asked, "when can I see it". Let me explain: the Norwegians stand out amongst all others when it comes to reforming country properties; we just know its going to be something special. Now, the property, well, it has everything but rather than me talk about it over several pages, check out the 360-degree Virtual Tour and/or the video/photos, all taken without filters so what you see is what you get. What I would like to tell you is privacy and security - just dont let that be a concern. Car parking? There is a carport for three cars and loads of parking spaces. Land? 2,000m2 approximately of stress free beautifully designed, easily maintained land. Heating/Cooling? Central Heating and Air Conditioning with a build quality that means the current owners are paying around 70 per month in electricity while living full time. Pool? 8x4 with a shower and a pool house with a bathroom. Internet? Fast and stable. Relaxation Areas? Plenty. Seriously, check out video/photos/360 degree virtual tour and prepare to be impressed. Why Sax? There are no traffic lights, it has a 13th-century castle, one of seven on the castle route but ours is the best and there are no parking meters and hardly enough crime to even mention due to the town having full employment. What? That isnt 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 Autovia (Motorway to you) 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 we are only eight minutes' drive away from the AVE station at Villena. The AVE is the high-speed train from Alicante to Madrid which has only four stops. From boarding the train it will have you in Madrid in 2hrs 9mins for as little as 9 if you are lucky enough, but around 25 if not and a maximum of around 55 Let us stick with the town of Sax for now rather than escaping to the beach or Madrid. 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. Its a sign we are almost home. Commercially, 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 UK Department Store, for example, the chances are they could have been made in Sax or nearby Elda
