Villa in Dalias, Cumbre del Sol, Costa Blanca North

Set on a generous double plot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this three-bedroom villa in Dalias offers a rare combination of privacy, space and genuine potential in one of Cumbre del Sol's most established residential zones, sitting between Jávea and Moraira. With 164 m² of living space, a private pool and a southeast orientation, this is a home that rewards those who can see what it could become.

PROPERTY OVERVIEW AND VIEW ANALYSIS

This villa sits on a substantial double plot of 2,166 m² in Dalias, Cumbre del Sol, providing an exceptional base for a meaningful renovation and extension project on Costa Blanca North. The southeast orientation draws morning light into the main living areas and carries a pleasant warmth through the day.

The double plot is the property's most distinctive feature. The existing built footprint leaves generous land on all sides, making a significant expansion of the current structure genuinely viable — something that is rare in a zone where individual plots typically range between 750 and 1,200 m².

Views look out towards the sea, giving the villa a natural visual connection to the coastline in its current form. The cul-de-sac position means no through traffic, and the surrounding mature vegetation reinforces a strong sense of seclusion.

INTERNAL DISTRIBUTION AND LIVEABILITY

This is a home that works well as a primary residence or a substantial second home, and its layout reflects a practical, generous approach to Mediterranean living. With 164 m² of interior space and 117 m² of terrace — of which 30 m² are covered — there is comfortable room both inside and out across the seasons.

The villa is distributed across its levels as follows:

1. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a separate toilet
2. A living room with a fireplace and split air conditioning — the heart of the home through cooler months
3. A closed kitchen, separate from the main living areas
4. A dedicated summer kitchen with a barbecue, fully covered and with generous space for an outdoor dining table — ideal for long meals outside without the heat of the afternoon sun
5. A covered terrace of 30 m², extending the usable living space outdoors
6. A private pool set within the plot
7. An individual garage of 30 m², integrated into the property, with secure covered parking for one vehicle

The property comes furnished, which makes it easy to visit and get a realistic feel for how each space actually lives. The condition calls for partial renovation — something reflected honestly in the asking price and precisely what creates the opportunity to bring this villa to a contemporary standard of your own choosing.

TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY AND CONSERVATION

The villa carries an energy certificate rating of F for consumption and E for emissions — typical figures for a home built in 1990 that has not yet gone through full thermal insulation or energy system upgrades. In practical terms, current running costs will be higher than those of a recently renovated property, and addressing this through the planned renovation would meaningfully reduce monthly bills and improve comfort year-round.

Heating is provided by central gas covering the whole home — a genuine comfort advantage over partial systems, particularly through the cooler winter months. The split air conditioning unit serves the living room. The fireplace adds warmth and character to the main living space.

The partial renovation requirement is not a structural concern. The bones of the villa are sound, and the oversized double plot gives any project real room to breathe. Full technical documentation will be made available to serious buyers through the management team.

LOCATION AND NEIGHBOURHOOD REALITY

Dalias sits in the northern part of Cumbre del Sol, where the urbanisation meets the Lady Elizabeth School and the entrance to the wider resort. Day-to-day life here is quiet and residential, with the settled character that comes from an established zone of private plots and low density.

Distances by road from this property:

1. Lady Elizabeth School: 1.2 km
2. CC Lirios: 1.9 km
3. CC Adelfas: 2.3 km
4. Cala Moraig beach: 2.7 km
5. Benitachell town centre: 3.6 km

11. Jávea: 11.6 km

A car is a practical necessity for daily life in Cumbre del Sol: the urbanisation is extensive and reaching the coves, the surrounding towns and the services beyond the resort requires driving. The cul-de-sac position of this villa means arrivals and departures are always calm and unhurried.

ACQUISITION COSTS AND LEGAL GUARANTEES

Buying in Spain is a clear and well-structured process when you have the right people around you, and the costs are transparent from the outset.

As a resale property, this villa is subject to Property Transfer Tax (ITP) under the Valencian Community's 2026 framework. The ITP rate is applied on a threshold basis: if the total agreed price is up to 1,000,000 €, a flat 9% applies to the entire purchase price. If the total agreed price exceeds 1,000,000 €, a flat 11% applies to the entire purchase price from the first euro — this is not a marginal rate, and the 11% is not limited to the amount above the threshold. On top of ITP, buyers should allow approximately 2–3% to cover notary fees, land registry inscription and independent legal representation; at higher property values this figure typically sits towards the lower end of that range.

In total, acquisition costs for a resale property in the Valencian Community are generally in the region of 11–14% above the agreed price, depending on the value bracket. Your independent lawyer will provide a precise, itemised breakdown against the price you agree, with no hidden charges.

If you are a non-Spanish buyer, you will need an NIE — the Spanish tax identification number — before signing the title deed. The management team can guide you through the steps from the very beginning.

The registered agent (RAICV) handling this transaction is legally required to maintain professional civil liability insurance and a surety bond covering any deposits or client funds held during the process. This gives you a clear and enforceable layer of protection throughout your purchase.

For new build purchases, the tax structure is different: 10% VAT (IVA) plus 1.4% Stamp Duty (AJD) apply instead of ITP.

COMMON QUESTIONS FROM INTERNATIONAL BUYERS

Is this villa a good fit for an international buyer looking for a project property in Cumbre del Sol?

This villa in Dalias, Cumbre del Sol, is particularly well suited to buyers who want to acquire a substantial plot and structure with real room to renovate and expand to their own specification. The double plot size is genuinely unusual for this zone, and the cul-de-sac position means the result of any renovation will be a private, personalised home rather than a standard product. As a resale property, you can assess the real condition, the exact views and the ground before committing — with none of the uncertainty of buying off-plan.

What does the partial renovation requirement mean in practice, and what should I check?

For a resale property of this age and size in Costa Blanca North, a partial renovation condition means the structure is standing and functional, but finishes, systems or both will benefit from updating to reach a modern standard. An independent specialised lawyer will carry out full due diligence before any funds change hands — verifying the land registry status, confirming the property is free of legacy debts, checking that community fees and IBI are paid up to date, and ensuring planning compliance. The technical department can provide available documentation in advance of your visit.

What are the full acquisition costs I should budget for as an international buyer?

For this resale property, the main tax is ITP, applied as a flat rate to the total agreed purchase price on a threshold basis — 9% if the total is up to 1,000,000 €, or 11% on the entire price from the first euro if it exceeds that figure. On top of that, allow approximately 2–3% for notary fees, land registry and independent legal representation, typically towards the lower end of that range at higher property values. The NIE, Spain's mandatory tax identification number for foreign buyers, is a procedural step rather than a cost, and can be obtained through a Spanish consulate or by a legal representative with a power of attorney. Your independent lawyer will give you a precise, itemised breakdown with no surprises.

PROFESSIONAL ADVICE AND DOCUMENTATION REQUEST

If this project appeals to you, the management team is ready to arrange a private visit at a time that suits you, so you can walk the full extent of the double plot and get a clear sense of the space and what it genuinely offers. Documentation on the property's condition, technical details and available plans can be requested directly — the team will share what is available and be straightforward about what still requires confirmation. Reach out whenever you are ready.
