Villa for sale in Mar de Cristal, Cartagena, Murcia

Set in a calm residential pocket of Mar de Cristal, just a short walk from the beach, this modern beach villa offers a smart mix of everyday comfort and architectural character all set on a generous 500m² plot.

Inside, the high ceilings and open living spaces set the tone with light from dual windows and a log burner set for cosy winter afternoons. A short flight of 5 steps rises through an arched doorway from the main living area up to the bedroom level, giving the layout a natural sense of separation between social and private spaces.

Of the four bedrooms, one has been converted into a bright home office, ideal for remote work or flexible guest use.

The kitchen has been finished with dark slate effect cabinetry and warm oak accents, opening onto a dining area with garden views. A separate laundry utility room keeps things practical with an exterior patio with staircase that takes you to the roof terrace, where the view opens up over neighbouring rooftops with mountain views and a partial view of the sea on the horizon.

Outside, the full-width covered terrace, shaded by a retractable awning, runs the length of the villa and steps straight down to the private pool, sun terrace, and lawn, an easy everyday extension of the living space.

Below, the underbuild and garage add valuable storage and covered parking, useful extras that are hard to come by this close to the coast.

Mar de Cristal, set on the Mar Menor, is one of the Costa Cálida's coastal gems, with direct beach access, a seafront promenade, and a short distance from local restaurants, golf courses of La Manga Club, tennis centre, supermarkets and the larger towns of Cabo de Palos and Cartagena.
