142m² on the 7th floor (with a lift, naturally). Three bedrooms. Direct sea views. Nobody above you. Nobody overlooking you. Just light, space, and that cooling Mediterranean breeze that makes Valencia summers actually bearable.

This is proper Cabanyal – the neighbourhood Americans and Brits are finally cottoning onto, but many locals have loved for generations. Ten minutes' walk to Las Arenas beach. Right by the Cabanyal Market, which means proper shopping, not supermarket nonsense.

What You're Actually Getting

The apartment wraps around a private interior patio. Translation: every room gets natural light, but you're not living in a goldfish bowl. Privacy and brightness – rare combination in Valencia flats.

Three good-sized bedrooms (not the coffin-sized "bedrooms" you see in some listings). Full bathroom plus a guest WC. Separate kitchen that's actually big enough to cook in. And a long balcony off the living room where you can sit with your morning coffee and watch the sea.

The building's solid – 7th floor means top floor, so no footsteps overhead. Good orientation. Built properly, not thrown up in the boom years.

The Cabanyal Bit

This neighbourhood still has soul. The market, the beach bars, the narrow streets. It's gentrifying (hence why now's the time to buy), but it hasn't lost its character yet. Transport links are spot-on. Everything you need is walkable.

Perfect as a permanent home or as an investment – Valencia's beach neighbourhoods aren't getting any cheaper.
