This representative villa in Montepego (Pego) combines an inland, tranquil setting with extensive modernization completed in 2022. With a living area of 400 m² and a plot of nearly 1100 m², the property offers significant volume for permanent residence or intensive holiday use. Situated at an elevation of 107 meters, the home provides views of the surroundings, including the nearby Marjal Natural Park. Recent renovations and the presence of two separate living levels make this object suitable for residents requiring flexibility in their living space.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is located in Montepego, part of the municipality of Pego. This is an inland zone on the northern side of the Costa Blanca. The area is characterized by a mix of urban residential development and agricultural/natural zones. The location provides access to both the beaches of Denia and the amenities of the hinterland. The immediate environment is paved and urban, with basic amenities like a supermarket within walking distance (82 meters).
With five bedrooms and four bathrooms, this villa is specifically designed for large families or joint family arrangements. The layout supports a multi-generational lifestyle, where the separate lower level functions as an independent unit with its own kitchen and living space. The presence of multiple terraces and a naya satisfies the desire for outdoor living, directly connecting indoor and outdoor areas.
While the villa's base is traditional, the property was modernized in 2022. Attention was paid to updating installations and the finish level. The technical condition is therefore recent compared to older properties in the region. There is a driveway with parking space and facilities for electric driving. The garden is landscaped, and the pool installation is operational.
This project does not offer direct beach access; the nearest sea is more than 9 kilometers away. Due to the inland location and hilly topography, a private car is necessary for daily mobility. The villa is not located in a gated community but offers privacy through the plot size. For those seeking direct city vibrancy within walking distance, the neighborhood offers a quieter, residential character.
This property fits well with families needing ample living space and flexibility to host guests or older children in a separate apartment within the same building. It also suits those working from home needing separate workspace, aided by two living levels. The location is ideal for those who prefer quiet and space but do not want total isolation; the proximity to Pego village ensures social and physical infrastructure. It is also an option for buyers focused on sustainability, given the EV charging and recent updates.
The finish displays a mix of traditional elements and modern comfort. Kitchens are equipped with modern appliances, and living spaces feature large windows providing natural light and outdoor contact. Outdoor terraces use materials resistant to the Mediterranean climate. Technical installations, including EV facilities, are up-to-date. The naya is a high-quality element typical for the region, enabling covered outdoor living.
The asking price for this villa is set at €895,000. This positions the object in the higher segment of the local market for Pego and surroundings. Given the 400 m² living area and 1099 m² plot, the price per square meter is significantly lower than comparable objects in direct coastal towns like Denia or Javea. The pricing reflects the inland position combined with the finish quality and plot size.
Living in Montepego means residing in a relatively quiet, elevated position overlooking the valley. Mornings often start with sun on the terrace, given the east/south orientation. The proximity of a supermarket within 100 meters allows for walking errands, a rarity in this region. In the evenings, the naya provides a sheltered spot to enjoy the evening sun without direct wind exposure. The nearby Marjal Natural Park means greenery and hiking trails are close without being near busy thoroughfares.
The Montepego environment is primarily residential with a landscape character. Residing at 107 meters elevation means freedom from ground-level humidity found directly on the coast. Air is cleaner, and summer temperatures can be more pleasant due to the absence of coastal heat accumulation. The immediate surroundings are dominated by views of the mountains and the nature park. It encourages an active lifestyle (hiking, cycling in the hills) rather than beach tourism, though the beach is accessible.

Pego is located in the Vega Baja del Segura, near the Valencia province border. It lies between major cities Alicante and Valencia.

Montepego is a suburb of Pego, strategically located between Pego town and coastal towns Oliva and Denia. It is a hybrid location: village amenities (Pego) and coastal recreation within reach.
Nearest beach: Platja de l’Aigua Blanca at 9.2 km as the crow flies. The Denia coast is within a 15-20 minute drive. For shopping, a supermarket is at 82 meters, guaranteeing daily amenities on foot. Larger stores and brands are found in Ondara (La Marina Shopping) about 10-15 minutes away. The nearest healthcare is a hospital at 7.7 km and a pharmacy at 3.2 km.

The region has a historical average of 3,736 sun hours per year. The inland location of Pego provides a temperate climate. The swimming temperature is usually above 20 degrees for 5 months a year. The distance to the sea and Marjal park create a microclimate that is often cooler in the evenings than directly on the coast, aiding sleep quality. The ridge offers protection from northern winds.

While not on the sea, beaches form a key part of recreation options. Platja de l’Aigua Blanca and Platja Pau Pi are logical options. For golf lovers, Oliva Nova Golf Club and Gandia Golf are accessible (approx 16 km). The immediate area invites hiking and cycling in the Marjal de Pego-Oliva natural park. The private pool compensates for the distance to the sea on hot summer days.

Compared to projects in Benissa or Altea (further north), the Pego region offers a significantly lower entry price per square meter. While Benissa often sees prices above €4,000,000 for similar luxury villas, the market in Pego starts around €900,000. The difference lies mainly in location prestige (direct seafront vs inland) and internationalization. Pego is more authentic and Spanish than expat-heavy coastal areas, which may be a pro or con. Compared to Finestrat (near Benidorm), Pego offers more peace and nature, and less mass tourism.
