3 Bed Finca for sale
Monóvar, Alicante, Valencia, Spain
Full Description
We pride ourselves on being different, we pride ourselves on being honest, that´s pretty different already!! So, I´m going to be honest, rarely have I seen such a disappointing property as I had to follow the owner up a 2km track and I didn´t know which house we were going to see and we kept approaching lovely villas and each time I hoped he would stop but no, we kept on going and then turned into a massive parking area with what looked like a fairly awful finca. However, worse was to come when I saw the extension that was a work in progress and I was speechless.
So, why did I decide to take the property onto my books and offer it for sale? Well, it´s quite simple, it offers fabulous value for money and it is a super opportunity to get a property in the Alicante region, close to a great town, Monovar, and be in a location that has the most stunning views and is free of neighbours and pretty much guaranteed to always be free of neighbours.
The 2km track is not potholed but is best described as better to purchase a 4x4 although the owner has a 2-door hatchback and he happily drives up and down but let´s stick to the 4x4 for now. One nice feature of the track is that you can drive practically all the way into the town in neutral – I love doing that.
Can I stick with the views? I´m dreading getting around to the Finca itself. The views, oh my word, take a look at the photos and the video and try to imagine what it is like to stand there trying to take it all in.
The pool area is quite lovely actually and just needs a certain amount of tidying up and there is ample terracing around it as well as a raised terrace which would make a great place to put a pergola.
Beneath the pool is a storage area big enough for a tractor and a pump and filter system could easily be added. There is another outbuilding, well, shack type of thing that could made into kennels.
At some stage, I realise I have to mention the Finca so here goes. It looks kind of charming from the front with a nice almost covered terrace which would make an ideal properly covered terrace to sit in the shade and relax and/or dine alfresco.
The interior of the house, the first part is pretty horrendous and it really should have made me prepared for what was to come but no, it didn´t. With the best will in the world, the part done extended area is dreadful but fear not as I am saving the best until last: -
The entire property area and the land are 100% legal, and the owner is a delightfully lovely old man who unfortunately is suffering health wise but he has been so realistic with the price as the entire plot and finca is available for 99,995€.
Even if you were to pay a professional builder to do every single bit of work the total to make this into a seriously lovely 3 Bed 2 Bath property should not come to more than 100,000€ and if you can do much of the work yourself you could save 60-70k on that figure which means that for somewhere between 130 and 200k you would have a 3 Bed 2 Bath Finca with total privacy without neighbours in a fabulous location in the booming Alicante region just 35-40 minutes from Alicante Airport and just take a look at the price of 3 Bed 2 Bath properties with pool and land for comparison and you will be looking at 225-275,000€.
