Property description
This November will be the 50th anniversary of the death of Franco, the moment which marked the start of ‘La Transicion’. This was the term given to the political change from dictatorship to democracy. US readers, please take not, this is the correct order. FROM dictatorship TO democracy. Going backwards instead of forwards doesn’t end well. However, transitional in house design refers to when you keep the best traditional bits, and include great modern features too. Like this house in Colinas de San Antonio, which has a classic façade and beautiful pool and gardens, lots of kerb-appeal , but the interior has been completely renovated and modernised. It is located on the edge of the urbanisation, and directly across the road is the start of the La Vallesa parkland area, which forms part of the huge Turia Natural Park. Easy access to the CV35 to the city, and a very short stroll (10 minutes) to a couple of large supermarkets. Even the metro is close, if you don’t mind a 20 minute walk.The property has a mature garden, with a large saltwater pool, a paellero and a kennel. The terrace leads directly from the kitchen, so it becomes an extension of the living area. The plot isn’t so large as to demand a huge amount of maintenance, but it is well designed, and in one corner is a reading nook, with a bench under an olive tree.The ground floor has an open living and kitchen area, 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms (one ensuite). Similarly, upstairs has another 2 bedrooms and another 2 full bathrooms (one ensuite). The basement/garage area has been renovated too and is partially being used as a home music studio at the moment, so would be ideal for a home office, podcast studio, influencer hub.The house has been completely renovated in the last 2 years. Solar panels with batteries installed, central heating system changed (now gas) and AC in the whole house, including the basement, along with backup water heating system, new pool equipment, and smart home installations throughout. A great house when you take into account all the top-quality renovation work that has been done in the last couple of years, a bit of a bargain to be honest. If you see yourself moving in the right direction and your situation only improving, (FROM the US TO Valencia perhaps?) this house could be a big part of that, call us.
