Property Summary
MEDITERRANEAN VILLA WITH PRIVATE POOL, MATURE GARDEN AND SEA VIEWS – CUMBRE DEL SOL, BENITACHELL
€495,000
Located in Cumbre del Sol, in the quiet residential area of Camelias, this traditional Mediterranean villa sits in established planting and tall palms, looking out towards the sea. Cumbre del Sol is the headland urbanisation above the coves of Benitachell, between Moraira and Jávea in the Marina Alta. It is known for clear air, open horizons and a slower pace than the coast below.
Inside, the house is laid out over two levels, and the layout is the clever part. The main floor holds the everyday living: a separate kitchen, a living and dining room, one bedroom and one bathroom. Then there is a second, larger lounge. It has exposed wooden beams, plenty of natural light and the unhurried character of an older Spanish home. It's the room you end up in when the evening runs long.
Downstairs, two more bedrooms each have their own bathroom and private sitting area. In practice, that gives you two self-contained guest suites. Family can come for a fortnight, friends can stay for the summer, and everyone still has a door to close. For a holiday home that fills up in August, this matters more than another bedroom would.
Outdoors, life centres on the private pool and its generous sun terrace. A large covered terrace sits alongside, made for long lunches and dinners that run late. The views carry out over the Cumbre del Sol landscape towards the Mediterranean.
The villa is in good overall condition and ready to use straight away. It also leaves room for new owners to modernise at their own pace, keeping the beams, the garden and the Mediterranean character while bringing the interiors up to date. You can move in now and improve it later, on your own timetable.
Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, more than one living room, a private pool, a garden that took years to grow and some sea views from one of the Costa Blanca North's best-known headlands.
