The villa offers central heating and cooling, domestic solar hot water, double glazing, aluminium shutters, a central vacuum system, and an alarm. The villa is set on the highest spot of the property, surrounded by mature olive and carob trees and because of the slightly sloping land there are open country views and distant ocean views.
