It is exceptionally WELL EQUIPPED and offers all the comforts of home and much more. It is set in a small private gated UP MARKET development which benefits from having a CCTV SECURITY SYSTEM which is in operation on the entrance gate and throughout the development 24 hours a day.

The villa is fortunate in being positioned at a HIGHER level than the villas below which contributes to its SECLUSION and PRIVACY. Additionally it is favourably positioned being in the middle of the small development of Villas Blancas and thus does not back onto or front onto ANY MAIN ROAD.
