The villa was built to British specifications in 1998 cavity walls, cool in Summer and warm in Winter. It is in very good structural condition with no damp issues, it just needs some updating but is perfectly liveable. The owner has a Tourist License in place and has been successfully renting a self-contained apartment for many years. The apartment can easily form part of the main house and convert to an additional bedroom as shown in some alternative floor plans attached. The established garden has an abundance of plants, shrubs and trees including fig, pomegranate, apple, pear, apricot, lemons and an impressive grape vine draped over the pergola to the side of the house. It is in need of some attention but the bones are there. Although North West facing the garden and pool has sun all day and there are sunny spots to sit at any time of the day including plentiful shaded areas for the height of summer. The current layout is split as follows: Road Level Entry Electric gates and a side gate open onto a parking area with a covered pergola next to the garage.
