This unique property was built in 1984 and extensively up-dated in 2006. On the Pla de la Torre urbanisation between Bétera (10k) and Olocau (6k),
Est has a tranquil setting and yet is just 30mins drive away from Valencia or the airport. Several very good international schools are within 20 minutes drive, close to bus routes.
Any number of great beaches can be reached within 30 to 45mins.
Riding schools in the nearby (5km) Sierra Calderona National Park offer lessons and trekking throughout the year.
One of the best golf courses in Valencia is just outside Bétera.
Est is accessed through double gates with video/speaker onto drive.


The entrance hall (vestíbulo) with traditional Valencian doors opens into the spacious salón which features a Mallorcan-style chimney fitted with a wood- burning stove. Double-glazed sliding doors open onto a 110 2m tiled terrace and well-managed garden with mature trees and a burgeoning orchard.
The large dining room adjoins an open-plan kitchen with polished granite work surfaces, stainless steel sink, inset hob, fan-assisted oven and microwave. Dish- washer and washing machine are concealed within the pale oak finished units. All three bathrooms have underfloor heating.
In the garden, a crushed marble pathway leads to a gravelled seating area beneath a ‘false pepper’ tree. Water on a timer irrigates the flower beds, a young cypress hedge and fruit trees (apple, cherry, fig, lemon, almond and orange).There is a sunken garden with shrubs and trees and a courtyard, semi-enclosed, shaded by a large carob tree. Perfect for outdoor dining. Steps lead to the elevated pool and terraces.
A second set of double gates gives access to the gardens and covered guest parking. Planning permission to build a second dwelling may be obtained from Olocau Council.
