Country house in San Miguel de Salinas, Alicante

This detached finca sits in a secluded position on the outskirts of San Miguel de Salinas. It is set within 12,662 m² of flat, fully fenced land surrounded by mountain views and fruit trees. It was built in 2000, faces east and is fully legal on rustic land. It offers both a peaceful rural lifestyle and the potential to run a small agricultural business.

The studio bungalow measures 57 m² and is all on one level, with access from both front and rear. Inside there is an American-style kitchen and a log burner, and an external storage room serves as a wardrobe. To the rear, a secluded courtyard houses an outside bathroom and gas boiler.

The finca has its own bolsa (irrigation reservoir), with full water rights. It feeds the trees through an irrigation system already piped across the land. The bolsa needs a new covering before it can be filled. A fenced section of the land holds a variety of chicken coops, and there are two water deposits, one for rainwater and one a private well. The current owner has also built a covered area with a net and frame.

The property has a septic tank and is connected to mains water and electricity. There is a large storage unit and an open area with a new roof and new concrete floor. The property is fully alarmed and is sold furnished.
