VILLA WITH PRIVATE POOL IN JAVEA (COSTA BLANCA) — up to 6 people You head up towards Montgó and find this 200 m2 villa surrounded by garden, the pool waiting at the far end and the valley opening up in front of you. Villa del Tauro is a house built for staying put: everything on a single floor, three double bedrooms and plenty of room so that three couples or a large family don't get in each other's way. The quiet of the area and the views over the mountains do the rest. INSIDE THE HOUSE. The living-dining room has a TV and air conditioning, plus a direct exit to the patio and pool that makes you want to leave that door open forever. The kitchen is well equipped: oven, microwave, dishwasher, ceramic hob, coffee machine and freezer — everything you need so you don't have to eat out every night. All three bedrooms are doubles and are on the ground floor, each with its own climate control. The three bathrooms break down like this: two with bathtub and one with shower, all with hairdryer. There's a washing machine and iron for longer stays, and free wifi throughout the house. OUTSIDE. The garden is large and well kept, with lawn, trees and a pergola under which to set up the table. The pool is L-shaped, 10x5 metres, with a depth of between 80 and 210 cm, an interior access staircase, and it's open all year round. There's garden furniture, sun loungers, a barbecue and an outdoor seating area, plus a terrace and covered balcony looking out over the valley and the mountains. Parking is included and free, within the property. WHERE YOU ARE. The villa is in the Montgó district of Jávea, about 7 km from the town centre and 8.5 km from the sea. It's a quiet, sunny area, more residential than touristy, perfect if you're looking to switch off without giving up having everything nearby: the supermarket is 1.2 km away and the nearest restaurant 750 m away. The "Estación de Autobuses" bus stop is 5.8 km away. For a swim, the sandy beach of El Arenal is 8.6 km away and the rocky cove of Cala Blanca 10.5 km. If you like the sea in other ways, the marina, surf school and sailing school are 7.6 km away, and the tennis courts 8.4 km. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The house has free wifi, a washing machine, an iron and air conditioning in every room. The owner doesn't accept groups of young people. Being several kilometres from the beach, you'll need a car to get around the area comfortably and reach the coast.
