Life here revolves around the sea: a wide balcony of 29.50 m² frames the Mediterranean and turns everyday moments into slow, sun-warmed rituals. Set on the 4th floor in the heights of Port-Vendres, this 80.50 m² apartment offers three bedrooms, two shower rooms, and a calm, contemporary flow designed for easy coastal living. Large openings invite natural light inside, while thoughtful separation creates privacy for family and guests. A refined base on the Côte Vermeille, close to the harbour spirit and the walking trails of the rocky shoreline.

A Mediterranean rhythm, written in blue
There are places where the sea feels like a distant backdrop&mdash and then there are homes where it becomes part of the day. From this fourth-floor apartment in Port-Vendres, the Mediterranean isn&rsquo t simply a view it&rsquo s a constant presence, shifting with the light, punctuating mornings with calm and evenings with soft, coppery skies. Up here, above the animated quays and the coastline&rsquo s rocky curves, life slows into something more deliberate: coffee enjoyed without rushing, a book left open on the outdoor table, conversations that stretch long after sunset.
Thoughtfully arranged across 80.50 m² of living space and complemented by a generous 29.50 m² balcony, this three-bedroom apartment offers the comfort of a true family home&mdash yet keeps the effortless feel of a coastal escape. Set on the 4th floor and oriented north, it delivers a fresh, airy atmosphere that suits the Mediterranean climate beautifully, while the sea view does the rest: calming, expansive, quietly mesmerizing.
Space that flows&mdash made for real life
The heart of the home
The apartment&rsquo s main living area brings everyone together in a single, well-composed volume: a 29.90 m² living room with open kitchen (with built-in storage noted on the plan). It&Rsquo S the kind of space that adapts to your pace. Some days it&rsquo s breakfast and emails with the horizon in sight others it&rsquo s shared meals, laughter, and that easy inside-outside movement that defines southern living.
Large glazed openings connect directly to the balcony, so natural light and sea air become part of the interior mood. With roller shutters and double glazing referenced within the residence specifications, the atmosphere stays serene&mdash whether you&rsquo re here year-round or arriving for long weekends and summer escapes.
Three bedrooms, each with its own sense of privacy
One of the pleasures of this layout is how naturally it separates social space from rest. A central hallway (4.90 m² ) leads to three bedrooms, each with built-in storage indicated on the plan&mdash ideal for keeping day-to-day living beautifully uncluttered.

Bedroom 1: 11.20 m²
Bedroom 2: 10.80 m²
Bedroom 3: 11.90 m²

This configuration is perfectly suited to hosting: children and guests can settle in with ease, and everyone enjoys their own corner of calm. It also works beautifully for those who want flexibility&mdash perhaps a dedicated office, an art room, or a guest suite that&rsquo s always ready when friends decide to follow the sun down to the Cô te Vermeille.
Comfort, day after day
Two shower rooms make daily routines notably smoother, especially with a full household in residence. The plan indicates Shower room 1 at 5.00 m² and Shower room 2 at 3.30 m² , providing practical separation for family life or visitors.
A separate Wc with additional storage (3.50 m² ) adds to that sense of everyday ease&mdash small details that matter, and quickly become non-negotiable once you&rsquo ve lived with them.
29.50 m² of outdoor living&mdash your front-row seat to the sea
The balcony here is not an afterthought it&rsquo s a destination. With 29.50 m² to play with, it becomes an extension of the living room&mdash an outdoor lounge, a dining terrace, a place to watch sailing boats trace quiet lines across the bay. The residence concept also highlights privacy between terraces via high walls, allowing outdoor time to feel intimate and unhurried.
Planters are shown and described as part of the design language, inviting climbing plants and soft greenery to frame the view and temper the architecture with a Mediterranean softness. A water point is indicated on the plan, a practical touch for terrace care and outdoor living.
In Port-Vendres, the coastline is a constant invitation: cliffside walks above the coves, swims in clear water, long lunches built around seafood and local produce. Having a balcony of this scale means you don&rsquo t have to choose between exploring and staying in&mdash you can do both, seamlessly, in the same day.
A residence designed to celebrate light, views, and privacy
The building&rsquo s architecture is conceived to sit naturally within its hillside setting, with materials and tones chosen to echo the surrounding landscape. The overall effect is contemporary yet calm&mdash clean lines, mineral hues, and outdoor spaces designed as genuine &ldquo extra rooms&rdquo rather than decorative ledges.
Within the residence specifications, you&rsquo ll find a focus on practical comfort: elevator access, secure pedestrian and vehicle access, and dedicated shared spaces such as bike and pushchair storage. The brochure also references the availability of garage boxes and parking within the residence (availability and allocation vary by lot). A 3-point security lock (A2p classification) is highlighted for the landing door, and aluminium exterior joinery with roller shutters supports both comfort and peace of mind.
Interiors are described with an emphasis on quality and contemporary simplicity: smooth finishes, large-format tiling, and strong attention to acoustic and thermal insulation&mdash designed to make the apartment as pleasant in the quieter winter months as it is in the height of summer.
Port-Vendres: authentic harbour life on the Cô te Vermeille
Port-Vendres is a working Mediterranean port with a real, lived-in energy&mdash fishing boats returning with the day&rsquo s catch, café s that fill naturally rather than performatively, and a waterfront that remains connected to its maritime roots. It&Rsquo S also a gateway to some of the most striking coastal scenery in the region, where rocky cliffs meet hidden coves and the sea shifts from deep blue to glassy turquoise.
Beyond the harbour, the wider Cô te Vermeille unfolds in a sequence of iconic villages and landscapes. The brochure places Port-Vendres alongside Collioure, Cerbè re, and Banyuls-sur-Mer, each offering its own blend of culture, coastline, and local gastronomy. The town&rsquo s setting near Spain adds an international ease to life here&mdash perfect for those who like their weekends spontaneous and their horizons wide.
Everyday ease, year-round appeal
Port-Vendres is not only beautiful it&rsquo s practical. The brochure notes everyday amenities and services&mdash shops, a weekly market, health professionals, leisure facilities&mdash supporting a lifestyle that works beyond the holiday season. With sunshine a defining feature of the local climate, the rhythm remains outdoor-oriented across much of the year: morning walks, terrace lunches, evenings on the waterfront.
Connections that keep life open
For travel and connectivity, the brochure highlights proximity to Perpignan (approximately 30 minutes by car), Collioure (approximately 8 minutes by car), and the Spanish border (approximately 35 minutes by car). Whether you&rsquo re arriving for a long weekend, commuting between regions, or exploring Catalonia and Occitanie at your own pace, the location supports an easy, mobile lifestyle.
A fourth-floor coastal home with a long view
This apartment brings together what matters most on the Mediterranean: a sea-facing outlook, a truly liveable outdoor space, and a layout that respects both togetherness and privacy. With three bedrooms, two shower rooms, and a generous open-plan living area leading straight onto a 29.50 m² balcony, it&rsquo s designed for mornings that begin slowly and evenings that naturally drift outdoors&mdash always with the sea as the horizon line.
