Lovely apartment here on a quiet street, despite being in the middle of Russafa. The street is named after King Pedro III, known as big Pedro, once King of Valencia, Aragon and Sicily. Tough man by all accounts, this might go the way of other streets named after tyrants, but Margaret Thatcher Square is still there in Madrid, so big Pedro wouldn’t be the first on my list if I was doing any renaming.

Anyway, back to the apartment. First floor no lift, but 2 bedrooms, high ceilings, wooden floors, wrought-iron balconies. All the features you imagine when you think of a Valencian apartment. Great as a holiday getaway for yourself, but also very attractive to mid-term tenants to make a bit of income when you aren’t enjoying it. And a surprisingly decent price, given the way prices in this neighbourhood have gone in the last few years.

Somebody once said there is no such thing as society, but she was wrong, and Valencia is the proof. Get in touch and make yourself part of it.
