High above Port-Vendres, this 5th-floor apartment frames the Mediterranean as your everyday backdrop. Inside, 80.70 m² of thoughtfully designed space balances a generous open-plan living area with three comfortable bedrooms, each with built-in storage. The real indulgence waits outside: an extraordinary 88.90 m² terrace made for long, unhurried meals and salt-air evenings. Set within a contemporary residence on the village heights, with lift access and secure entry, it places you close to the harbour life, coves, coastal walks and the Côte Vermeille’s legendary light.

A Mediterranean Horizon, Held Just for You
Some homes change the pace of your day the moment you step inside. Up on the 5th floor, with the sea stretching out beyond Port-Vendres, this apartment is designed around that feeling: calmer mornings, softer evenings, and the quiet satisfaction of living with a view that never becomes ordinary.
Here on the Côte Vermeille, colour and coastline set the tone—rocky coves, cliffside footpaths, and the daily theatre of a working harbour. From this elevated position, you’re close to the rhythm of the village while enjoying a sense of distance and breathing space. The apartment’s north-facing orientation brings a gentler light—especially welcome in the warmer months—while the outlook remains decisively Mediterranean.

80.70 m² That Flows Effortlessly
The interior offers 80.70 m² of well-composed living space, created to feel easy, modern and genuinely liveable. The plan is that rare combination: open where you want togetherness, and clearly structured where you want privacy.

The Heart of the Home: Open-Plan Living
At the centre sits an inviting 31.30 m² living room / kitchen—a single, generous volume that encourages conversation, shared cooking, and slow breakfasts that drift into the day. Large glazed openings (with roller shutters) connect the room to the terrace, so the outdoors becomes an everyday extension of how you live rather than an occasional luxury.
The kitchen is set within the main living area, ideal for relaxed hosting—where the cook remains part of the moment. The overall layout supports a natural flow from interior comfort to outdoor dining and lounging, with the sea beyond acting like a moving piece of art.

Three Bedrooms, Each with Built-In Storage
The apartment is configured as a 3-bedroom (T4) home—practical for family life, effortless for hosting guests, and flexible enough to create a dedicated office or hobby room without compromise.

Bedroom 1: 11.20 m² with built-in closet
Bedroom 2: 10.50 m² with built-in closet
Bedroom 3: 11.20 m² with built-in closet

Each bedroom benefits from integrated storage (placards), keeping the feel streamlined and uncluttered—exactly what you want in a coastal home where life tends to spill happily outdoors.

Bathrooms Designed for Real Life
Comfort is supported by two shower rooms: Sde-1 (5.00 m²) and Sde-2 (3.20 m²). The residence specification includes a bathroom vanity unit, a heated towel rail and a rectangular mirror—details that quietly improve the everyday. A separate Wc (3.50 m²) with built-in storage adds convenience, especially when the terrace becomes the hub of social life.

Practical Comfort Built In
Beyond the visible rooms, the apartment’s layout includes a hallway / distribution space (Dgt: 4.80 m²) and the technical elements typical of modern residences. The brochure highlights strong acoustic and thermal insulation and double glazing—an understated but important luxury, offering a sense of calm when you want it, and efficiency year-round.
Hot water is provided by a thermodynamic domestic hot water tank (as indicated on the plan), supporting modern expectations of comfort.

88.90 m² of Outdoor Living — A Terrace That Becomes a Destination
If the interior feels thoughtfully proportioned, the exterior is simply expansive. The apartment opens onto an exceptional 88.90 m² terrace—a true open-air living room where the sea view takes centre stage.
This is the space where Port-Vendres life becomes vivid: an early coffee with the coastline waking up, long lunches that stretch into the afternoon, and evenings where the horizon turns soft and luminous. There is room here to create distinct zones—dining, lounging, reading, sunbathing—so every part of the day can find its own setting.
The residence design philosophy also emphasises privacy, with terraces separated by higher walls, helping you settle into your own rhythm outdoors. With a water tap point shown on the plan, day-to-day terrace living—watering plants, rinsing sandy feet after the beach—feels refreshingly simple.

A Contemporary Residence Shaped by the Landscape
The building sits on the heights of Port-Vendres, designed to merge with its environment and prioritise views to the sea. Architectural lines are contemporary and clean, with a palette intended to feel natural in the Mediterranean setting. Balconies and terraces are conceived as true extensions of the apartments, with shaded areas and integrated planters described in the brochure—details that support that signature indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
For everyday ease, the residence offers lift access, secure pedestrian and vehicle access, and dedicated storage for bicycles and pushchairs. Entrance doors are specified with a 3-point security lock (A2p classification), and exterior joinery is described as aluminium with roller shutters—modern features that add peace of mind and comfort without fuss.

Port-Vendres: Authentic Harbour Life, Côte Vermeille Beauty
Port-Vendres is not a resort set-piece—it’s a living maritime town where the harbour remains the heart of the scene. Fishing boats, a commercial port, and a marina create a daily spectacle on the quays, and the village atmosphere stays lively throughout the year. The coastline here is dramatic and intimate: rocky cliffs, tucked-away coves, and walking paths where sea and mountain seem to meet.
The brochure highlights the area’s outstanding climate, with around 120 days of sunshine, and the easy pleasure of a town that offers essential services and local shops for daily life. It’S a setting where you can embrace a slower rhythm without giving up convenience—markets, cafés, restaurants and cultural life close by, and the broader energy of the region within reach.

Well Placed for Exploring
From Port-Vendres, the Côte Vermeille unfolds in both directions. You are near celebrated neighbouring villages such as Collioure, Cerbère and Banyuls-sur-Mer, each offering its own character—heritage streets, galleries, seaside terraces and coastal scenery. The wider region of Occitanie brings an irresistible mix of gastronomy, natural parks, and a calendar that stays active beyond summer.
For practical travel, the brochure notes straightforward access to the Mediterranean axis linking southern France and Spain, with Perpignan around 30 minutes away by car, and Collioure around 8 minutes. Mountain lovers also appreciate the proximity of the Pyrenean peaks—an easy change of scenery when you want pine air and higher horizons.

The Essence
This 5th-floor Port-Vendres apartment is defined by one powerful idea: space that opens generously to the sea. With three bedrooms, an airy open-plan living area, and an extraordinary 88.90 m² terrace, it offers a refined base for year-round coastal life or extended Mediterranean escapes—where the view is not a feature, but a daily companion.
