Exclusive Villa El Santuario - A unique retreat in the Montgó Natural Park

Nestled within the Montgó Natural Park — where protected status guarantees no further building will ever encroach on this setting, while still allowing for renovation — stands this enchanting artist’s house, perfectly positioned for those seeking peace and nature without sacrificing convenience. Just a five-minute drive brings you to the heart of Jávea or Dénia, with their supermarkets, shops, bars, restaurants and beaches.

The property benefits from gas central heating and roof insulation that keeps energy costs down while maintaining a cool interior through the summer months, along with air conditioning in the master bedroom and 5G fibre optic internet throughout.

Entry leads into a bright sitting room framed by windows on every side, offering fantastic views over the Montgó mountain, while a study area flows into the lounge, where a wood burner and a tosca-lined window facing the pool create a warm, characterful space. The kitchen is fitted with a gas hob and an eye-level electric oven.

The master bedroom includes a dressing room and mirrored wardrobes, complemented by a family bathroom, while the second bedroom carries a distinctive Moroccan theme, also with its own dressing area. Off the kitchen, a laundry room provides access to the drying area and vegetable garden.

From the lounge and kitchen, the dining room opens onto the courtyard patio, where a third bedroom and naya can be found, along with steps rising to a sun terrace.

To the rear of the property is a self-contained one-bedroom apartment, complete with its own dining room, sitting room, compact kitchen, and access to a private patio, along with a bathroom with shower and a double bedroom opening to the courtyard patio, warmed by its own wood stove. With a separate entrance to the side of the house, this apartment is ideally suited to visiting family, guests, or rental income.

Outside, a generous covered dining area, seating up to ten guests around a Moroccan mosaic table and fitted with lighting, sets the scene for outdoor entertaining, while the patio leads through to a designer pool (9m x 5m) with its own Chill Out gazebo, and gravel paths wind their way to a fishpond tucked into the far corner of the grounds.

At the front door, a striking Buddha statue rests within a flowerbed scented with jasmine, and the front garden offers a small patio to one side and gravel paths leading to a carport, garage, and dedicated art studio.

Electric gates and thoughtful night-time lighting — including a security light at the front of the house — add both convenience and peace of mind, and the entire garden is fully walled, making it a safe haven for children and pets alike.

From here, scenic woodland walks lead up to the historic Windmills, offering sweeping views across the whole bay of Jávea, with the Monastery waiting at the end of the lane.
