Half past seven on a September morning. The sun lifts out of the sea to the southeast, and because that is exactly the way this apartment faces, the first light of the day comes in flat across the terrace and keeps going, through the living area and into the bedrooms. You can stand there with a coffee before anyone in the building is awake and watch the water change colour. That orientation is the single most durable thing about this apartment for sale in Benitachell: the sea view and the light are not features that wear out, need servicing or go out of fashion. Everything else here — surfaces, fittings, finishes — is work to be done, and the price of €290,000 reflects that honestly.<\/p>

There are 97 m² built, arranged as a twobedroom home with one full bathroom and a separate guest cloakroom, which is the layout that works when the second bedroom is used by visitors rather than by the household every day. The kitchen is open to the living space, so the whole front of the apartment reads as one bright room rather than a series of small ones. Worth saying plainly: the kitchen is the corner that receives the least natural light of the whole apartment, because the light arrives from the terrace side and the kitchen sits back from it. Both bedrooms, by contrast, get the same generous southeast light as the living area. The apartment was built in 2005, and the bones of that layout are sound — an incoming owner is reworking finishes, not moving the house around. A garage space with one parking spot comes with the apartment, which on this stretch of coast is not something to take for granted.<\/p>

The terrace is the reason to buy this one. It is a proper outdoor room rather than a ledge with a railing, facing southeast over the sea, so it holds the morning and midmorning sun and then softens into shade later in the day — which in July and August is exactly the right way round for eating outside. The building has a communal pool, so the swimming, the cleaning and the winter cover are somebody else’s job: you use it in May, you walk away from it in November. For a buyer thinking in terms of longterm cost rather than square metres, that distinction matters more than it looks on paper.<\/p>

This is a secondhand apartment from 2005 in need of renovation, and we would rather you hear that from us than discover it on the viewing. What is already in place: the 97 m² of built space, the open kitchen configuration, one full bathroom, a guest cloakroom, the seafacing terrace, the garage space and access to the communal pool. What a new owner takes on is the refresh — surfaces, fittings and finishes. The energy performance certificate is in progress. Buyers who like a project tend to like this kind of starting point: a good orientation, a good view and a floor plan that does not need structural changes to work.<\/p>

Cumbre del Sol sits on the cliffs of Benitachell — El Poble Nou de Benitatxell — in the Marina Alta, the northern end of the Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. From the apartment, the nearest beach is 4.8 km away and the village centre 6.9 km. The everyday practicalities are closer than people expect: a supermarket at 3.5 km, an international school at 2.1 km, and a golf course at 6.3 km. Alicante airport is 103 km by motorway and Valencia airport 134 km, which puts two sets of UK and Irish flight routes within a comfortable drive rather than tying you to one airline’s schedule.<\/p>

Life up here is quieter than in the resort towns below, and more vertical: the roads run along the cliff edge, the pines smell of resin by August, and the light in the last week of September is the best of the year. With an international school 2.1 km away and a supermarket at 3.5 km, this is a part of Benitachell that functions all year rather than shutting down in October. You drive down to the beach for the day, you drive back up for the view. A twobedroom apartment with a big terrace suits that rhythm — enough room for guests, not so much house that a fortnight away in winter becomes a worry. The tramontana blows through in January and the terrace waits for spring.<\/p>

Reference OV4398EX, priced at €290,000, with purchase taxes and completion costs payable on top (see the indicative breakdown below). It is an apartment that needs work and does not pretend otherwise, which is precisely why the view, the light and the terrace are worth seeing in person. Call us or send a message and we will arrange a viewing at a time of day when the sun is doing what it does best here.<\/p>

FAQ<\/p>

How much work does this apartment in Cumbre del Sol needIt is a secondhand apartment built in 2005 and it needs renovation — essentially surfaces, fittings and finishes rather than structural changes. The twobedroom layout, the open kitchen position, the bathroom and the guest cloakroom are all already in place across the 97 m². The kitchen is the darkest corner of the apartment, so it is usually the first thing owners rethink.Does the apartment have sea views and which way does it faceYes — it faces southeast and looks out over the sea from the terrace and the living area. That orientation means direct sun from sunrise through midmorning, with shade later in the day, which is why the terrace works well for summer evenings.How far is the beach from Cumbre del Sol, BenitachellThe nearest beach is 4.8 km from the apartment and the village centre of Benitachell is 6.9 km. A supermarket is 3.5 km away and a golf course 6.3 km, so daytoday errands are a short drive rather than a trip into town.Is there parking and a poolThe apartment comes with one space in a garage, and the building has a communal pool. Communal maintenance means the pool is looked after yearround without the owner taking it on.What is the energy rating of this propertyThe energy performance certificate is in progress. As soon as the certificate is issued we will publish the rating on this listing.What are the purchase costs on top of the €290,000 priceThe asking price does not include transfer tax, notary, land registry or gestoría fees, which are paid separately by the buyer. There is an indicative breakdown at the end of this page. We will also talk you through the NIE, the escritura (title deed) and the completion timetable before you commit to anything.<\/p>
