Renovated village house with a south-facing patio

Daily errands, school runs and a swim at the municipal pool happen on foot from the front door. This 3 bedroom 1 bathroom townhouse in Manilva sits in the village itself rather than on a coastal urbanisation, trading a communal pool for public sports pitches, a park and local shops a short walk away. The property has been recently renovated and is sold fully furnished, removing the delay of building work and furniture deliveries.

Two levels and a separate kitchen

The house measures 116 square metres of built area arranged over two floors. Downstairs holds the living room, a guest toilet and a separate fitted kitchen with new appliances. Having the kitchen closed off from the living room keeps cooking noise and smells out of the main sitting area, which matters in a house used all year. An upstairs landing connects all three bedrooms and the single full bathroom. One bathroom shared between three bedrooms is a compromise for a larger household, though the ground-floor toilet takes the pressure off in the mornings.

South-facing terrace and rear utility patio

Outdoor space totals 30 square metres of terrace split between two distinct areas with different jobs. At the front of the ground floor, a south-facing patio with a sun awning takes the sun through the middle of the day and serves as the main outdoor dining and sitting area. A smaller rear patio off the back of the ground floor handles the practical side of village living, giving dedicated space for laundry and storage so clothes horses and cleaning gear stay out of the living rooms and off the main terrace.

Village position and coastal access

Living in Manilva village means both a primary and a secondary school are within walking distance, alongside everyday shopping. The sea is 3.5 kilometres away down the hill. Reaching the beaches and promenade at Sabinillas takes eight minutes by car or fifteen minutes on the local bus, making it straightforward to use the coast without living in the summer traffic.

What to check when viewing

Because this 3 bedroom 1 bathroom townhouse in Manilva is in a working village rather than a gated complex, a buyer should check street parking near the house at different times of day. It is also worth testing water pressure in the upstairs bathroom and checking the storage capacity of the rear patio to be sure it fits bikes or beach gear.
