The melting pot of Valencia architecture spans centuries, and here on a tranquil street in the oldest part of Ciutat Vella we find a Gothic gateway and a piece of city history, the Portal de la Valldigna, an archway to access the Muslim quarter that was created after Christian reconquest that dates all the way back to 1440. Fun facts you can tell your mates the next time you’re out on the tiles in El Carmen...

The melting pot of Ruzafa’s Cosmopolitan sensibilities and culture owes a lot to the urban planning over the last 10-15 years, bars, restaurants, and coffee shops are nothing without their terraces and the council’s quest to Make Valencia Green Again heralded the rise of pedestrian friendly thoroughfares on once car lined narrow roads, take a look at Street View on Google Maps circa 2008 and you’ll see what i mean...

We are currently experiencing that couple of weeks of weather that come every Spring when you wouldn’t know if you are in Valencia or Cork. Everybody telling each other to enjoy the rain while you can, won’t be long before the heat is here. And every year it seems the heat comes earlier and lasts longer. So how to cope with being stuck in the city? Escaping for August is fine, but how about June and July...

Anybody who has been over to view properties with us lately will know that we always make sure to show what we consider the best property first, and for a very simple reason; the good ones do not hang around very long these days so when you see something that’s a good fit, you need to move quick. And this property would be number one on our lists for so many of you...

Calle Lliria that is, set on one of the quietest streets in the historical quarter, this excellent third floor apartment behind a classical facade that was totally renewed and rehabilitated in 2004. Close enough to the life and soul of El Carmen but not directly above the action it is also conveniently close (100 Metres or 9,58 Seconds) to the Turia Gardens or “Riverbed” as the locals call it. Cycle, run...

Don't worry about lugging heavy grocery bags or suitcases up and down stairs - Walk straight into this impressive ground floor apartment. Marvel at the high ceilings and natural light from the large windows and if you have a green thumb then put to good use the incredible outdoor space to set up quite an impressive garden, or mini jungle for that matter...

Waiting for Godot has been open to many interpretations. What does it all mean, is it political, is it social. Beckett himself said "Why people have to complicate a thing so simple I can't make out". A feeling many of us here at Valencia property can relate too. Sometimes finding a property isn't confusing, or complicated. You go out, you look at an apartment. If its nicely done, in a good location with nice bright orientation...

Come and enjoy this historic home in the center of Valencia: El Carmen. Located in a lovely plaza famous for it's old Olive tree that grows right in the middle. This is a quaint apartment with balconies off the living room and the master bedroom. It gets a lot of of natural light from all sides and the kitchen is newly modernized and equipped with new appliances and furniture...

My favourite building in Valencia is the Finca Roja, it's gorgeous built in a style more synonymous of early New York than mid century Valencia. I really don't get why more buildings weren't built like it but that doesn't matter as it means there is only one. However, there is one bad thing about the Finca Roja and that is the inside space. Usually the apartments there are dark, mostly hallways and lacking a feel of airiness...
