Properties in Elche

Elche is located in eastern Spain, in the Costa Blanca region. The city has more than 230 thousand inhabitants. It is not a typical seaside resort, but it still has something to offer tourists and investors beyond the beach and sea.

 

The city itself is famous for its interesting architecture, which it owes to the Ibers, Phoenicians, Romans and Moors. It is here that the famous lady of Elche was found - an outstanding Iberian sculpture. The exhibition can be admired at the National Archaeological Museum in Madrid. Tourists may enjoy the rich cultural life as much as they like, shop in many shops and enjoy the amazing Spanish cuisine in the local restaurants. In addition, the sea is only half an hour away by car.

Palm trees in Elche

Best things to do in Elche

Elche is the largest date palm plantation in Europe. With number of 200,000 - 300,000 palm trees, Elche has more palm trees than people.

In Elche there is an Arab palm grove, which has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2000. Date palms were grown in Elche as early as the 5th century BC and were founded by the Romans. However, the appearance and complex irrigation system is the work of the Arabs. Everything was created in the 10th century -  in this period the Muslim city of Elche was born. The palm grove is an oasis – just as the desert oasis, but also serves as an example of Arab farming methods. It is a very unique place in Europe.

Apartments for sale

Apartments are usually associated with great freedom and space, and these are the main features that define this type of property. The modern design of the rooms and the increased standard of the apartment are also very important. Therefore, apartments should be spacious due to the appropriate height of the premises and a large area. There is no clear definition as to what area the apartments should have and therefore it is possible to find apartments with an area of 100 m2 as well as 70 m2. When it comes to apartments for 1 person, the apartment may be just 60 m2. An important requirement is the division of space into day and night zones. In addition, the apartments may have a wardrobe, several bathrooms, a balcony, a terrace or a garden. Apartments are mostly found in central districts, as well as in newly built housing estates. The location of the apartment should be prestigious and comfortable. There should be shops, galleries, cultural and entertainment facilities in the area.
