Villa for sale in Montgo, Javea for under 500k

Yes, this villa for sale in Javea is priced under 500,000 euros because it needs work and has an issue that really isn’t a big deal if you’re willing to get informed…

The previous owners have lived in and enjoyed this home located in a quiet cul-de-sac beneath Montgo’s watchful eye for 30 years and now it’s time for someone else’s vision to convert this villa into an amazing home.

So, I was saying about getting informed.. Informed about how this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom villa in need of refurbishment and/or extension can and will become either a very good investment or home to live in for many years to come!

Now, let me explain: this house is in an area where if you want to build a proper pool (in-ground pool), it will have to have abide by Javea General Planning Rules which means moving the boundary or opting for an above ground pool – hence its price.

Are you aware of how Javea town hall works in regards to licenses and building permits?

I will outline the details quickly for you as to how they work, incase you don’t know:

So, you can buy and sell property in Javea without having to move boundary walls if (1) the infrastructure around the plot meets town hall General Plan specifications or (2) If you do not wish for a large building works permit – there are two types of building permits in Javea: small and large works permits.

Now let’s say you fall in love with a property that is in an older area with narrow roads and you’re thinking about extending the property or building a pool….

And when your lawyer looks at the General Plan of Javea (projected town planning file), he will see that the infrastructure around that property doesn’t meet certain requirements and the town hall will obligate you to move the boundary walls, tarmac and possibly install sidewalks and street lights – so, basically build that plot’s portion of the infrastructure.

In some cases, it is on one side of the plot, in other cases it can be on two or three sides….Sometimes, you can negotiate with the town hall but it takes time and effort.

So, what’s the work-around? It’s to either break up the building works into small lots: instead of ordering a large works license from the town hall you order 3 small works licenses as you need them / finish each section of the job in hand. This depends on what type of job/extension is projected though – because a pool is automatically a large works license but the work-around for this instance is to build an above ground pool.

And in the eyes of Javea town hall an above ground pool is a "non-permanent building" therefore no building licenses are required and no boundary’s moved or infrastructure built.

Turn this villa for sale in Montgo Javea into your own paradise for less money without complications – come and see it today for yourself, feel its good energy and visualise the huge potential it offers to its next owners.
