4-bedroom penthouse in Jávea

A penthouse duplex on the fourth and fifth floors of a building with a lift in central Jávea, with four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a private terrace of about 30 m² looking out over open mountain views. It is offered at €460,000 and sold furnished.

The property The 178 m² built (135 m² usable) are split into a day floor and a night floor. On the fourth floor, the entrance hall leads into a bright, generous living and dining room with hardwood floors, large windows and a balcony, furnished in a warm Mediterranean style of wood, light tones and natural fibres. The kitchen is separate, a long galley with units on both sides and its own utility gallery. This floor also has a bedroom, a full bathroom and the wooden staircase to the floor above. The fifth floor is for resting: three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom opens straight onto the terrace, has air conditioning and an en-suite bathroom with twin basins, a wooden vanity and a mosaic walk-in shower. One of the bedrooms has been turned into a fully fitted walk-in dressing room with made-to-measure wardrobes. The terrace is the highlight: around 30 m², private, with room for an outdoor dining table, a bench and loungers, and views to the mountains. White joinery with shutters and wooden floors run through the home. The building dates from 1997; there is air conditioning but no central heating.

The area: Jávea town centre The apartment sits on Avenida del Rei Juan Carlos I, a practical, well-connected street with shops, services and restaurants close by and an easy link to the old town. The port and La Grava beach are a few minutes away by car, and the sandy Arenal beach is about 3 km beyond the marina. The Montgó natural park frames the town, and Dénia is about 10 km to the north.

Investment view At €460,000 for 178 m² built, the price comes to about €2,584 per square metre. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a large private terrace in the town centre suit a family living in Jávea all year, as well as long-term letting, which needs no tourist licence. Short holiday lets require a tourist licence from the Valencia region and the approval of the community of owners. Taxes, notary and land registry costs are not included in the price.
