A Home with Space to Breathe
A recently reformed villa in Puerto Azul, La Nucía, offering the rare combination of a private pool, genuine sea glimpses toward Altea, and a fully independent guest studio — all on a generous plot of over 1,000m².
Location
Set in the quiet, established urbanización of Puerto Azul, this villa enjoys a peaceful residential setting while remaining well connected: La Nucía centre is around 7 minutes away, Alfaz del Pi 5 minutes, Altea centre 10 minutes, and Albir 10 minutes. The nearest beach is roughly 13 minutes by car, with the AP7 motorway reachable in around 15 minutes. Despite this connectivity, the plot itself feels tranquil and set apart from the noise of the coast.
Outside
The 1,032m² plot is arranged around a private 8.5 x 4.5m pool and a generous terracottatiled terrace, shaded by traditional palapastyle pergolas and framed by mature Mediterranean planting — palms, agave, olive, and seasonal flowering shrubs. From the pool terrace, there are genuine, if partial, sea views toward Altea. A second, more private terrace sits closer to the house, reached via decorative tiled steps and bordered by a terraced, droughttolerant garden that makes the most of the sloped plot. The property also benefits from private offstreet parking under a covered carport.
A fully independent guest studio opens directly onto the pool terrace via its own glass doors, with no interior connection to the main house. Thoughtfully designed with its own bedroom area, sofa, kitchenette and full bathroom, it offers real privacy without real distance — ideal for adult children visiting with a partner, or extended family who'd like their own space just steps from the pool.
Inside
The main house is bright and openplan, with exposed woodbeam ceilings, warm oakeffect flooring, and arched windows and doors that draw in natural light throughout. The living and dining areas flow into one another beneath a striking vaulted ceiling, with a pellet stove providing genuine warmth and comfort through the cooler months. The fully fitted kitchen combines sleek white cabinetry with a characterful greentiled splashback, and includes a separate utility area.
The main house offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a main bedroom with its own walkin closet and ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom offers flexible use as a guest room, office or snug. Both bathrooms are finished to a high standard, with walkin showers and warm woodtoned vanities. Air conditioning is provided via split units throughout.
Good to Know
This is a villa that has clearly been cared for and thoughtfully updated, with a reform completed only recently — the finishes throughout feel current rather than dated. The plot's gentle slope has been used well, with terraced planting rather than a flat, highmaintenance lawn, though buyers who prefer level gardens throughout should be aware of this. The pool is chlorinetreated rather than saltwater, and unheated, worth factoring in for those planning early or lateseason use. Furniture may be included by negotiation, which can simplify a move considerably for buyers arriving from abroad.
In Short
A wellrounded, moveinready property in one of La Nucía's most established residential areas — private, quiet, and practically connected to everything the Costa Blanca North has to offer.
