Villa Petra is a key-ready modern villa situated in the Altea Hills urbanisation on the Costa Blanca, roughly between Altea's old town and the coast at Calpe. The property offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms across a built area of 600 m², on a plot of 963 m². The house is arranged over three levels and includes a lift, underfloor heating, air conditioning, a private infinity pool, landscaped gardens and a garage. Panoramic views extend over the Mediterranean and the surrounding mountains. The starting price is €3,300,000. Altea train station and the town's beaches are within a short distance of the property.
Within Altea Hills itself, the most direct comparison is Villa Saona, a new development listed from €2,690,000. Both projects target the upper segment of the northern Costa Blanca market, but Villa Petra's €3,300,000 starting price reflects its larger built area of 600 m² and its key-ready status, meaning no construction risk or waiting period for the buyer. Further down the coast, the market changes considerably. In Rojales, on the southern Costa Blanca, Oceanic Apartments start from €475,000, and in Daya Nueva the Nueva Daya Villa starts from €453,000. These inland-southern locations offer lower entry prices but a different proposition: flatter terrain, more expat-oriented developments and longer distances to the characteristic coastal towns. Altea Hills, by contrast, combines a hillside setting with panoramic sea views, proximity to a genuine Spanish town with 15,000 inhabitants, and a railway connection within walking distance. Compared with the Costa del Sol around Marbella and Estepona, where similar-sized contemporary villas frequently exceed this price point, the northern Costa Blanca generally offers more value per square metre, at the cost of a longer transfer from Alicante-Elche airport at roughly 56 km straight-line distance. For buyers weighing the decision, the relevant trade-offs are the steep terrain of the hillside location versus the views and privacy it provides, and the quieter, more Spanish character of Altea versus the denser international resort infrastructure of Benidorm, ten kilometres to the south-west. Golf buyers will find three courses within 15 km, which is adequate but not as extensive as the golf clusters around Villaitana or the Costa del Sol.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Altea Hills is a residential hillside urbanisation above the coast, at an elevation of about 59 metres. The nearest beach, Playa del Bol, lies 0.3 km away as the crow flies, although the gradient towards the sea is steep at roughly 16%. Altea town centre and its train station are approximately 0.3 km distant in a straight line, which places daily amenities within practical reach.
The villa is designed for year-round or seasonal living at a generous scale: four ensuite-capable bedrooms, an open-plan living and dining area with a designer kitchen, a home office with sea views, multiple terraces and a private pool. Underfloor heating and hot-and-cold air conditioning support use across all seasons, while the internal lift connects the three levels.
The project is listed as key-ready new construction, meaning the villa is completed and can be viewed and transferred without a waiting period. The stated delivery reference of 1970 relates to the original urbanisation records and is indicative only; the building itself is marketed as new construction. Availability of this specific unit should be confirmed with the developer or agent.
The property is a single villa priced at €3,300,000, so there is no price spread across units or cheaper typologies within this project. The slope between the house and the sea is steep, which makes walking to the beach impractical for some residents. A hospital is 15 km away and the nearest airport, Alicante-Elche, is roughly 56 km away in a straight line.
This villa suits buyers seeking a large, completed property on the Costa Blanca North who want to move in without a construction phase. It fits a household that values space and privacy: four bedrooms and four bathrooms accommodate a family or regular guests, while the lift and single-plot layout support long-term occupancy into later life. The property also matches buyers who work remotely, given the dedicated office with sea view. A second profile is the second-home owner who wants a lock-and-leave base in a gated community close to Altea's restaurants and cultural life, with the beach, marina and golf courses within a short drive. The villa is less suited to buyers with a smaller budget, as there is no cheaper unit within the project, and less suited to those who want to walk to the beach daily, given the steep gradient. Buyers who need frequent air travel should note the roughly 56 km straight-line distance to Alicante-Elche airport. Families with school-age children will find two international schools within about eight kilometres. Finally, the property can serve as a seasonal rental or investment asset, though rental yield expectations should be checked against local regulations and community rules before purchase.
The specification list points to a high-standard finish throughout. Flooring in the main living areas is wood, combined with fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms for each principal room. The kitchen is described as a fully equipped designer kitchen, integrated into an open-plan layout with the living and dining areas. Climate control is comprehensive: underfloor heating provides warmth in the cooler months, while air conditioning covers both heating and cooling modes, matching the local climate band of roughly 11 to 27 °C average monthly temperature. The presence of an internal lift is a notable technical feature for a villa of this size, connecting all three levels without dependence on stairs. Outside, the property includes a private infinity pool, several terraces of which at least one is covered, and landscaped private gardens. Parking is provided in a garage with space for more than one vehicle. Security is handled at the level of the gated complex, with access control to the urbanisation. The construction status is key-ready, which allows buyers to inspect the actual finishes rather than rely on show-home materials. As with any key-ready purchase, it is advisable to verify during a viewing which fittings and appliances are included in the sale and to review the technical documentation of the pool installation, lift maintenance contract and underfloor heating system.
The starting price for Villa Petra is €3,300,000, which is also the top of the quoted range, as the listing covers a single completed villa rather than a multi-unit development. For that price the buyer acquires 600 m² of built area on a 963 m² plot, with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a lift, private pool, garage parking for more than one car, and a full climate-control installation including underfloor heating. Comparable new villas in Altea Hills, such as Villa Saona, are listed from €2,690,000, which places this property at the upper end of the local market segment. Availability is immediate in principle, as the construction status is key-ready; confirmation of the exact handover date and what is included in the price should be requested directly.
Villa Petra sits on the wooded slopes of Altea Hills, a gated residential area known for its quiet character and elevated position above the bay. Daily life here revolves around the house itself: mornings can start on a covered terrace with sea views, work can be done from the home office that overlooks the Mediterranean, and afternoons can be spent at the infinity pool or in the private garden. The internal lift makes the three-level layout practical for older residents or owners who prefer to avoid stairs. Outside the gates, Altea's town centre is close by in a straight line, with its whitewashed old town, seafront promenade and a full range of shops and services. The area counts a large number of restaurants, cafes, banks and pharmacies within two kilometres, which means everyday errands do not require a long drive. Altea train station is only 0.3 km away as the crow flies, and four bus lines with 43 stops serve the wider municipality, so a car is convenient but not essential for every trip. The hillside setting means the return journey from the beach involves a steep climb of around 16%, which most residents manage by car. The urbanisation is secured by a gate, contributing to low through-traffic. For sports, the Polideportivo Altea Garganes is 1.0 km away and Club de Tenis Altea 1.2 km. International schools such as Costa Blanca International College (5.5 km) and Lope de Vega International School (7.6 km) are within commuting distance for families.
Altea is a coastal town of about 15,000 inhabitants that retains a year-round community, unlike some of the more seasonal resorts further south. The urbanisation's position on the hillside means the immediate surroundings are residential and quiet, with viewpoints such as Mirador Cronistes d'Espanya just 0.1 km away and the historic Torre de Bellaguarda at 0.3 km. For daily needs, a supermarket is 1.5 km away, a pharmacy 3.2 km, and the area within two kilometres counts 68 restaurants, 27 cafes, 14 banks and 6 pharmacies. Port d'Altea, the nearest marina, is 1.1 km away and offers mooring-related services and waterfront dining. Healthcare is available locally for routine matters, with the nearest hospital 15 km away. Altea train station at 0.3 km straight-line distance provides a regional rail connection along the coast towards Alicante and Valencia, which reduces dependence on the car for certain trips. An electric-vehicle charging point is 3.1 km away. Alicante lies 47 km away and Valencia 101 km as the crow flies, both reachable for city visits, shopping or airport connections.
The map shows Villa Petra's position on the Altea Hills slope, with the town centre, railway station and Playa del Bol all within a few hundred metres in a straight line. Note that distances shown are as the crow flies and that the steep terrain between the urbanisation and the sea lengthens actual travel by foot.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Altea sits on the Costa Blanca North, roughly midway between Alicante (47 km) and Valencia (101 km as the crow flies). The town is positioned between the tourist hub of Benidorm to the south-west and Calpe to the north-east, both within a quarter-hour drive. Compared with the Costa del Sol further south, the area is known for a slightly greener landscape, a lower density of high-rise development and a more Spanish town centre, while remaining well connected through the AP-7 motorway and the coastal railway.
The nearest beach, Playa del Bol, is 0.3 km away as the crow flies, with Platja de la Roda at 0.5 km and Platja de l'Espigó at 0.6 km. Because of the steep 16.3% gradient, most residents reach the sand by car in a few minutes. Golfers can choose between Altea Club de Golf at 2.3 to 4.0 km depending on the access route, Club de Golf Ifach at 11 km and Meliá Villaitana at 15 km. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 56 km away in a straight line, and Valencia airport about 106 km, meaning both are realistic options for international travel, with Alicante the nearer of the two. Public transport consists of four bus lines and 43 stops across the municipality, supplemented by the tram/train stations at Altea (0.3 km), Olla Altea (3.0 km) and l'Alfàs del Pi (5.0 km). By car, the N-332 coastal road and the AP-7 motorway connect Altea with Calpe, Benidorm and the wider region. A car is convenient for the hillside location but not strictly necessary for every journey.

The climate is typical of the northern Costa Blanca: an average annual temperature of 18.6 °C, with monthly averages ranging from about 11 °C in winter to 27 °C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20 °C or above, lasts around five months, roughly from late May to early October. The property stands at 59 metres above sea level, high enough to command panoramic views over the bay and the Sierra de Bernia mountain range behind it, yet low enough to keep the climb from the coast manageable by car. The steep gradient towards the beach means the plot benefits from unobstructed sightlines towards the sea. Rainfall is concentrated in the cooler months, and the area records around 32 local public holidays per year, reflecting an active municipal calendar of fiestas and cultural events in Altea itself.

The coastline around Altea consists of a mix of sandy coves and pebble beaches. Playa del Bol, Platja de la Roda and Platja de l'Espigó all lie within 0.6 km of the villa as the crow flies, while the quieter Platja de la Solsida and Platja del Mascarat are at about 1.9 km. For boating, Port d'Altea is 1.1 km away and the larger Port Esportiu Luis Campomanes at 5.4 km. Sports facilities nearby include the Polideportivo Altea Garganes (1.0 km), Club de Tenis Altea (1.2 km) and a public swimming pool 0.5 km from the property. Golfers have three courses within 15 km, from the compact Altea Club de Golf to the larger resort layouts at Ifach and Villaitana. Hiking routes in the Sierra de Bernia and the Penyal d'Ifach natural park are a short drive away, and the viewpoints immediately around the urbanisation offer walking options without leaving the hill.
