Be the first to see the sun every morning from this elevated hilltop home on the Costa Blanca. Pick your spot on the large terrace and relax with a coffee as the sun rises over the shimmering Mediterranean. It’s a peaceful location with nothing but blue sky above and glorious vistas in front. The cool pool and covered dining area have the best views in the house, looking out over craggy cliffs and green mountains, to the blue below. It’s a glorious spot for alfresco dinners or poolside aperitivos. Inside, this comfortable red-roofed home is simple and well appointed. There are two separate kitchens with open-plan living areas, giving plenty of scope for some privacy if you need it. But with traditional touches and a Scandi-style wood burner, it manages to be cosy too. Set in the small, family-friendly village of Benitachell, there are hiking trails close by, from where you can admire even more stunning scenery, and the beach is a mere five-minute drive away.
