More details about the Property
The ground floor of the main house totals 176 square metres. Upstairs is
another additional 25 square metres which is currently used as an office but
with minimal effort and cost can easily be converted into a self contained
apartment.The rest of the property consists of a
further 56 square metres of buildings comprising of a garage, outdoor
kitchen/BBQ. This gives a total constructed area of
256 square metres.
The construction of the property started in
May 2000 and although the main house was finished in 2001 (and lived in
since) the rest of the property was constructed in the the following 3 years
and finished in 2004. Recent discussions with the architect state
that a further 144 square metres of land area can be constructed on (up to
4% of the total land size), plus there is a further 120+ square metres
available on the 2nd floor should anyone wish to extend the property. In
fact up to 800m2 of constructed area is allowed. This is subject to the laws at the time of writing and may change in the future.
All the plans, permissions for construction
etc are all legal and paid for. The architect responsible for the plans is
EA Architectos situated in Campello.
The utilities connected to the
property.
As stated previously the property benefits
from free electricity via solar power. In 2004 the Spanish Government
decreed that soon all new built properties in Spain would be required to
have a certain amount solar power installed. Click either of these 2 links
to read the articles click here or click
here. Mains electricity is also available as next door have it installed
so it's just a matter of requesting it should you prefer to have it instead
of solar. Having said that the Spanish electricity companies are legally
obliged to pay the solar power owner 5 times more for any excess electricity
produced that is put back into the national grid should you decide to have
both the solar and mains complimenting each other.
The property also benefits from having mains
water, however, although the pipe work for the mains is all connected we
actually currently have a massive water deposit of 84 cubic metres and
purchase water via a water tanker. This we do for 2 benefits. 1. It is
vastly cheaper than the mains and 2. We never go without water, even when
pipe maintenance is being carried out as happens frequently in Spanish
towns. The water tanker is owned and operated locally and it's no problem.
Having said this, if it is any prospective
purchasers wish to have mains water instead then it is no problem to have
switched on by the company. The meter box and all the pipe work is
installed. All that is required is the company to install the meter.
Also as mentioned we have broadband satellite
internet and at the time of writing we are the only people in the whole area
with broadband, so this is an advantage. We use this for our telephone calls
99% of the time and a mobile the rest of the time so communications are not
a problem. It is now possible to have a proper Spanish phone number on the
internet so your friends can phone you if they don't use the alternative
VOIP phones that we prefer. Again, it's a matter of choice. The phone
company also have the main phone lines installed next door
(approx' 100 metres away) so again as with the electric and water there is
no problem installing these should you need or prefer them.
The Land.
The land of the property consists of 10,000
square metres of which has been pegged out and recorded by a topographer and
is on the plans. The land is partially flat and partially sloping. The
immediate area surrounding the property is all flat and level. There is also
a further large area (approx' 2000 metres sq') of flat land ideal for an
extra building plot should anyone wish to take advantage of this in the
future. Please note, that as of the time of writing this the law states that
only one house is allowed on 10,000 square metres, although this is true the
law is expected to change in the near future. However, this does not mean
that 2 houses can't be built now the only difference being that they would
be on one escritura and therefore, only allowed to be sold on the one
escritura as the laws currently stands.
The Property.
The property was built
by a builder as his own home and consists of 4 bedrooms (1 bedroom is
actually used as the upstairs office and can be converted into a self
contained apartment), 2 bathrooms (1 en-suite) large kitchen, large 25 sq
metre lounge, dining room, utility room, walk in wardrobe in the master
bedroom. The master bedroom consists of a very large 25 sq metre room plus
6.25 sq metre walk in wardrobe and a 12.5 sq metre en-suite bathroom. In
addition to this there is a 30 sq metre sun lounge that is south facing and
enjoys the sun all year round.
The Pool.
The pool is 10 metres by 5 metres, the depth
is 1.2 metres sloping to 1.9 metres and was constructed in 2004. The pool is
constructed of 550 millimetres thick concrete walls (well above average),
and finished in glass mosaic tiles and not the cheap plastic versions that
are not as good. On the bottom of the pool is situated 2 handmade dolphins,
if you bought these today they would cost in excess of 1,000 euros! The
terracing at the end of the pool is constructed on top of the pump room and
another water deposit, which collects the water from the roof. This is
currently sealed off but can be accessed via a manhole cover should the need
become required. The water deposit is has a tube to allow a water pump to be
connected if so desired.
The Gardens.
The gardens are a mixture of matured flower
beds, which surround the immediate area of the house. Away from the house
are numerous citrus trees, and some ornamental trees. Further from the house
the remaining ground has been left to regenerate as natural countryside. Due
to the fact that the property is fairly new and saw a lot of earth movement
during construction the gardens away from the main area of the house look a
little bare, this in time will re-grow back to its natural state over a
couple of years.
No expence has been spared on the necessities
during the construction of this property.
