Exceptional four bedroom country villa, prime location in Llíber, Inland Costa Blanca. This unique property is situated on a large plot, with stunning views of the vineyards, the whole of the Valley and on to the mountains. The house was designed and built in the "French Provincial" style, with a symmetrical facia and interior, and french doors with louvred shutters. Electric gates open onto a sweeping driveway that leads, up to the front entrance, or to an expansive parking area towards the back of the house. There is space on the plot for several vehicles and a motorhome. A lovely, rustic, wooden door opens into a grand entrance hallway. The open staircase has wrought iron furnishings and a galleried landing. To the left is the main living room. This connects to a morning room/ library, with connecting doors to the outside terrace. Both rooms share a feature fireplace with striking, rustic stone surrounds, in keeping with the style of the house. They make a stunning, focal point. This room then connects to the dining room and on to the fully fitted kitchen and utility space. Furthermore, on this floor, there is a spacious double bedroom with extensive fitted wardrobes. The adjoining family bathroom acts, both as an ensuite bathroom and a guest cloakroom. The upper level has two expansive, bedroom suites. Both bedrooms have french doors with juliette balconies and access to their own private terrace. The views from here are directly across the valley.  In addition, both bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms, one with a shower and the other with shower and bath tub. The interior living spaces are beautifully furnished in the "French Provincial" style and some of the furniture will be included in the sale. Below the house is a self contained apartment. This has a living room/kitchen and an en-suite bedroom, ideal guest accomodation or for extended family. The outside living spaces are stunning. An expansive terrace is partly covered and it overlooks the grounds of the residence and across the valley. There are several seating areas to choose from for relaxing in the sun, lounging in the shade and dining al fresco.  A large swimming pool is surrounded by open terrace. A short flight of steps takes you down to the rest of the plot. There are mature olive trees and Mediterranean flora. A large part of the plot has been left natural for easy maintenance. There is scope to develop this land. One could create a landcaped garden, an adventure playground for children, a kitchen garden or even animal pens and a chicken coop. It would also be possible to install a wood cabin, or two, to create income or extra guest accomodation. The mature trees would make it possible to retain privacy to the main house.  The possibilities are endless. The location is peaceful and idyllic, yet it is within a 10 minute, scenic stroll to the central plaza in the picture postcard village of Llíber. A lovely setting for morning coffee in the shade of the historic church and bell tower. The larger towns of Jalón and Benissa, where you will find all your everyday amenities, are a 5-10 drive. The coastal town and beaches of Calpe are 15-20 minute drive. This lovely family home is a real gem with a wonderful personality. It is grand, yet at the same time, has a lovely, homely feel.  The house is built to the highest standards and a brand new septic tank was recently installed. This unique property represents an impressive country house, an incredible investment opportunity, an idyllic location and the start of an adventure. Call for further information.
