Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa is positioned within the Altea Hills district, part of the municipality of Altea. The setting is urbanized with amenities within walking distance. The plot is located a relatively short distance from the coastline, though the significant elevation change and steep gradient influence pedestrian access.
With 420 m² of living space across three floors, this home offers capacity for multiple residents or families. The inclusion of a lift facilitates vertical circulation within the property. The 5 bathrooms support a functional layout for the multiple bedrooms.
This is a resale property (second-hand). The condition is described as well-maintained. There is no new construction build phase to await; the home is available for immediate occupancy.
The plot's gradient of 16.3% is significant, meaning the garden and surroundings are not flat. This impacts outdoor mobility for those with physical limitations. The hillside location requires navigating elevation changes.
A typical scenario for purchasing in Altea Hills is a search for a permanent main residence for a family wishing to combine urban amenities with sea access. The 4 bedrooms make it suitable for families with older children or guest quarters. The location requires comfort with elevation changes and driving.
The listing describes the property as 'in good condition' and 'well-maintained'. Technical amenities like a lift and air conditioning indicate a modern level of residential comfort. Specific material finishes are not detailed in the data, but it falls under the 'luxury homes' category based on price and neighborhood.
The asking price for this villa is set at €3,700,000. Comparable properties in the region, such as FALCO 8 in Benissa, are listed starting at €4,250,000, positioning this home in the higher segment of the Benissa and Altea real estate market. Prices in this segment vary significantly based on views and plot size.
The surroundings of Altea Hills are residential, bordering directly on natural areas and the coastline of the Marina Baixa. With a local population of 15,058, the area offers a lived-in environment beyond just tourism. The proximity to the Altea train station (0.3 km as the crow flies) allows for regional accessibility without exclusive car use. The steep incline creates a natural plateau for villas, providing privacy but involving stairs in the immediate environment.
The immediate environment offers amenities within walking distance, including supermarkets and restaurants. The presence of 43 public transport stops and 4 lines indicates good connectivity to surrounding towns like Altea and Benidorm. Nearby marinas and golf courses (within 11 km) define the lifestyle as maritime and recreation-focused.

Compared to projects in Benissa and Finestrat, Altea Hills offers a more central location relative to the marinas of Altea and Calp. The price point of €3.7 million is competitive for the immediate coastline, especially when compared to prices in more exclusive urbanizations in Benidorm (Villa Roma) which are often higher. The build quality of this specific resale property differs from new developments like FALCO 8, offering the investor a different set of finish guarantees.
