Villa in Jazmines, Cumbre del Sol, Costa Blanca North

This villa is being built from scratch in Jazmines, the exclusively luxury-villa zone of Cumbre del Sol, where every plot carries open views across the Mediterranean and the surrounding landscape. Positioned between Jávea and Moraira in Costa Blanca North, this is a project-stage home designed to the highest current specifications — an opportunity to receive a bespoke, move-in-ready residence on a private 997 m² plot.

PROPERTY OVERVIEW AND VIEW ANALYSIS

This villa in Jazmines, Cumbre del Sol, sits on a 997 m² private plot in the only zone of the urbanisation reserved exclusively for luxury villas, where every single plot carries open views across the Mediterranean as standard. Jazmines is a singular place: 255 individual plots, no semi-detached homes, no apartment blocks and no standard product — only independently designed villas with private pools, landscaped gardens and natural stone perimeter walls. This villa is no exception.

The southeast orientation means morning light fills the main living spaces early and holds through the best part of the day. From a southeast-facing plot in Jazmines, the panorama sweeps across Cabo de la Nao, the natural park of La Granadella and, on clear days, the outline of Ibiza on the horizon.

The official built area recorded for this property is 528 m², comprising 260 m² of interior living area, 207 m² of terrace, 13 m² of covered terrace, 44 m² of double garage and 4 m² of storage and technical room. The plot of 997 m² is separate from and not part of that built figure. At project stage, these surfaces define a home with serious room to live, entertain and breathe — both inside and out.

INTERNAL DISTRIBUTION AND LIVEABILITY

The villa is arranged across three levels, and the design makes the most of each one. The access level sits at the top: you arrive into the entrance hall, leave the car in the double garage and find two suites, each opening onto its own terrace. The middle level is the social and private heart of the home — the principal suite has a walk-in dressing room and a full en-suite bathroom, and the open kitchen with its central island flows naturally into a terrace divided into three distinct outdoor settings: a built-in barbecue area with countertop, sink and power points, a covered porche and an open solarium. The lower level is designed as a versatile leisure space, suited equally to a home gym or a cinema room, and configured so that an additional sitting room, bedroom and bathroom can be incorporated if needed.

In total, the home offers three bedrooms, two of them full suites with walk-in wardrobes and en-suite bathrooms, plus the principal suite at the middle level. The 207 m² of terrace and 13 m² of covered terrace give the outdoor living areas real scale across those three environments, and the 260 m² of interior living space is distributed so that no level feels incidental.

The private pool completes the exterior, set within the plot alongside the perimeter of natural dry-stone walls — a hallmark of every villa built in Jazmines.

Arriving home means pulling into the double garage, which occupies 44 m² at the access level. Inside, the specification reads as genuinely high-end throughout: decorative walnut wood panelling, full-height interior doors with concealed hinges, bespoke fitted wardrobes, Silestone worktops, integrated-handle kitchen cabinetry, Miele appliances and a water softener. Bathrooms have wall-hung sanitaryware, backlit mirror-fronted vanity units and full-height tempered glass shower screens.

The exterior envelope is equally considered: high-grade aluminium framing (Technal or Schüco) flush to the floor with thermal break, Climalit solar-control low-emissivity glazing, clear glass balustrades and motorised blinds in all bedrooms. External and pool paving is in non-slip porcelain, and the garage floor shares the same material.

The home is fully air-conditioned by a ducted system covering every room, and aerothermal underfloor heating runs throughout the whole property as well — a combination that covers the full range of a Costa Blanca North year. A heat-recovery mechanical ventilation system (Mitsubishi Electric) handles air quality and freshness continuously. The fireplace adds warmth and atmosphere to the main living area.

The home automation system is managed via app, with two dedicated iPad control panels and a smart speaker included. Multi-room audio covers the whole house, and a CCTV system handles security. Electrical fittings are Niessen throughout. The 5.5 kW photovoltaic installation sits on the property and feeds directly into day-to-day consumption. A double-glazed, armoured-grade main entrance door and a complete alarm system round out the security provision.

TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY AND CONSERVATION

This villa is currently at project stage, and that framing matters here: no energy performance certificate exists yet, because the certificate is issued on the finished building. It will be provided as part of the handover documentation.

What the specification does confirm is a technical envelope built around efficiency. Aerothermal underfloor heating throughout, ducted air conditioning zoned by room via Airzone thermostats, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, a 5.5 kW photovoltaic installation, Climalit low-emissivity solar-control glazing, thermal-break aluminium framing and mineral-wool insulation in the façade cavity all point in the same direction: a home that handles both the heat of summer and the cooler months comfortably, without the energy penalties of an older build. Interior and exterior walls include acoustic insulation between rooms, and all partition walls are finished in smooth sprayed plaster.

The condition is recorded as excellent, which in a project-stage new build means the finished home will be delivered to these full specifications without compromise. What that translates to in practice — certificate letter, running costs — is confirmed at handover by the independent technical documentation, not before.

LOCATION AND NEIGHBOURHOOD REALITY

Living in Jazmines means living at the southern entrance to Cumbre del Sol, in Benitachell, with Moraira closer than from any other zone in the urbanisation. The neighbourhood is exclusively villas — no blocks, no through traffic, no commercial activity within the zone itself — and that residential quiet is one of the defining qualities of daily life here.

The Lady Elizabeth international school is 2.4 km away by road, within Cumbre del Sol itself, which makes the school run straightforward for families. For day-to-day shopping, the CC Lirios commercial centre is 1.8 km away, the CC Adelfas 3.4 km, and Mercadona is 3 km by road. The centre of Benitachell is 4.7 km away.

The coast and main destinations are within easy reach:

1. Cala Llebeig — 3 km by road
2. Cala del Moraig — 4.7 km by road
3. Moraira — 6.6 km by road
4. Golf course — 6.6 km by road
5. Yacht club — 6.9 km by road
6. Jávea — 12.7 km by road
7. Reference hospital — 22.4 km by road
8. Alicante airport — 97 km by road

A car is a practical necessity for daily life in Jazmines, as all distances are by road. Parking throughout Cumbre del Sol is genuinely easy, including during peak summer months, and the residential streets around the zone handle arrivals and departures without pressure. The fibre-optic connection available in the zone supports remote working and high-bandwidth household use without difficulty.

ACQUISITION COSTS AND LEGAL GUARANTEES

Buying a new build property in Spain is a transparent process when you understand the framework upfront, and the management team is committed to walking you through every figure before you commit to anything.

Because this is a new build in the Valencian Community, the applicable taxes are VAT (IVA) at 10% of the agreed price, plus Stamp Duty (AJD) at 1.4%. To that, budget approximately 2–3% more for notary fees, land registry inscription and independent legal representation; on higher-value homes that share typically sits at the lower end of that range. Total acquisition costs for a new build therefore run at approximately 13.4–14.4% above the agreed price.

One framework specific to off-plan and under-construction purchases deserves clear explanation: Spanish law requires the developer to guarantee any stage payments made before delivery through a bank guarantee or insurance policy in the buyer's favour, held in a separate special account. That obligation is set out in law and covers the full amount paid, including taxes, plus statutory interest. Your independent lawyer verifies compliance before any funds are released — confirming that the guarantee is in place, that the building licence is granted and that there are no encumbrances on the title. They also itemise the exact acquisition cost against the agreed price, with no hidden charges.

After delivery, Spanish law grants the buyer of a new build home three statutory guarantee periods: one year for defects in finishes, three years for defects in building elements and installations affecting habitability, and ten years for structural defects, backed by a compulsory ten-year insurance policy.

The registered agent (RAICV) holds mandatory Civil Liability Insurance and a Surety Bond covering all client funds in custody throughout the transaction — the legal standard for registered intermediaries in the Valencian Community.

COMMON QUESTIONS FROM INTERNATIONAL BUYERS

What taxes apply when buying a new-build villa in Cumbre del Sol, and what should I budget beyond the purchase price?

A new build purchase in the Valencian Community is subject to 10% VAT (IVA) and 1.4% Stamp Duty (AJD) on the agreed price. Notary fees, land registry inscription and independent legal representation add approximately 2–3% more, typically towards the lower end on higher-value homes. Your independent lawyer provides a precise breakdown against the agreed figure before you sign anything, so the total is fully known in advance.

As an international buyer, what is the NIE and why do I need it before completing the purchase?

The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is the tax identification number that Spanish law requires any non-Spanish citizen to hold before signing the public title deed, registering the property or opening a Spanish bank account. You can obtain it through a Spanish consulate in your home country, at a designated police station in Spain, or through a legal representative acting under a power of attorney. Your independent lawyer typically coordinates this as part of the purchase process, so it does not become a separate logistical hurdle.

How are my stage payments protected if the project is still at the design phase?

Spanish law requires the developer to secure every payment made before delivery through a bank guarantee or insurance policy in the buyer's favour, held in a separate special account. The obligation covers the full amount paid, including taxes, and it arises once the building licence is granted. Your independent lawyer verifies that this protection is properly in place before any funds leave your account — that verification is the single most important step in an off-plan purchase, and it is non-negotiable.
