Curiosity is inherent to human nature. No matter how absurd the question may be that’s running through our heads, we have to find an answer before we go to sleep. It’s a trait that leads us to wonder about things like “What’s the most expensive house in Valencia?” while we’re doing laundry or making dinner on any given Tuesday.
In case you’re curious or happen to have seven million euros to spare, here’s the answer: a villa on the beach at Puig de Santa Maria, 15 minutes from downtown Valencia, with a total lot size of nearly 2,200 square meters, a tennis court, a pool, and ocean views.
Villa Llevant, as its sellers have named it, is located within the Play-Puig Les Villes development, one of the most exclusive complexes on the entire Valencian coast. The property has direct access from the boardwalk itself, but the greenery surrounding the lot provides complete privacy, according to the listing on Idealista.
Although it’s not too far from the town’s most touristy area, the house is far enough away from large buildings that sunlight bathes the garden all day long.
Eight bedrooms and a professional tennis court
Inside, the home (with over 1,200 square meters of floor space) spans three levels, featuring eight bedrooms (six on the upper floor and two on the lower floor), five bathrooms, and a basement with a living room and wine cellar. In addition, the sellers highlight the exceptionally high quality of the construction, all of which is made with premium materials (mobila wood and marble floors) and a design aesthetic reminiscent of a bygone era, in contrast to the current minimalist trend.
However, the most unusual feature might just be in the garden: a regulation-sized tennis court, perfect for tennis enthusiasts or professionals training to compete in a Grand Slam. The outdoor area, surrounded by greenery and palm trees, also features a large private pool, a sun deck, and a relaxation area ideal for barbecues or parties.
A home to “enjoy with the family,” as the ad puts it, with a price tag suitable only for the ultra-wealthy, because on top of the seven million euros, you have to add the Property Transfer Tax (11% of the price) and the real estate agency’s commission (1.5% plus VAT), bringing the total cost of the sale to approximately 7,900,000 euros.
