This detached villa in Bigastro (Alicante) offers 322 m² of living space on a 585 m² plot. With five bedrooms and four bathrooms, the property accommodates the spatial needs of large families or multi-generational living. The residence is situated in an urban environment where amenities such as supermarkets and pharmacies are within walking distance. Although the project is located inland, the beaches of the Costa Blanca are approximately 20 kilometers away. Built in 2013, the home features a private garden, swimming pool, various terraces, and a basement.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa is situated within the residential neighborhoods of Bigastro, positioned at 37 meters above sea level. The plot is located 68 meters from a supermarket and 155 meters from a pharmacy, ensuring direct access to daily necessities. Bigastro is a municipality in the Vega Baja del Segura comarca with a population of over 7,000. The surroundings offer an urban setting with local dining and schools within a 2-kilometer radius.
With 322 m² of living space and a 585 m² garden, this project provides ample square footage for residents requiring significant living space. The layout across three floors supports living situations where privacy and home office spaces are priorities. The presence of five bedrooms and four sanitary facilities makes it suitable for large families. The garden allows for outdoor living without reliance on public facilities.
This is an existing home built in 2013. The construction spans three floors, including a 111 m² basement. The condition and finish are consistent with the construction period, meaning the property is considered 'modern' rather than new. Technical installations such as heating and air conditioning are centrally regulated.
The project is not located on the beach or directly on a golf course; the nearest coastline is 20 kilometers away. Transportation is necessary for beach visits. While daily amenities are close by, the home is further from major urban centers and the airport compared to coastal projects. The basement level is not registered in the cadastral data, which is relevant for the legal surface area definition.
This project fits households needing ample living space but wishing or needing to avoid the premium prices of direct coastal locations. It is suitable for families with older children needing their own rooms, or couples seeking space for a home office and guest accommodation. The layout with bedrooms on different levels offers privacy for multiple adults under one roof (e.g., parents and aging parents). It is also an option for those who prefer not to use a car for every errand; the physical proximity to a supermarket (68 m) and pharmacy (155 m) allows for organizing daily life on foot. Furthermore, it offers a solution for those wishing to escape the bustle of tourist coastal towns while retaining the option to be 20 minutes from the sea. Prospective residents should consider dependence on a car for trips to the beach or golf course.
The villa, built in 2013, is designed with a focus on spatiality and light through the open-plan ground floor. Finishes are characterized by modern materials and a functional layout. Central heating and air conditioning ensure comfort in both winter and summer. The kitchen and living room are situated to facilitate social interaction. Bathrooms feature modern sanitary ware. The basement provides space functioning as additional living area, though not formally registered in the title deed. This technical detail means one has the physical space, but a smaller surface area is legally documented. The outdoor space is landscaped with vegetation providing privacy, and the pool is a private facility without sharing with other residents.
The asking price for this villa is €699,000. For this amount, one acquires a net living area of 322 m², equating to approximately €2,170 per m². Additionally, 585 m² of plot land is included. By comparison, similar villas in direct coastal towns such as Altea or Benissa typically command prices starting from €4,000,000 for larger luxury homes, indicating that the inland location in Bigastro offers a significantly more price-friendly option in the higher segment.
Living in Bigastro means residing in an inland, urban community where basic amenities are literally around the corner. The morning can start with a short walk to the local supermarket less than 100 meters away. At 37 meters above sea level and situated in the sheltered position of the Vega Baja, residents experience a stable climate with over 3,800 hours of sunshine per year. The nearly 600 m² garden offers enough space to find sun throughout the day, from the morning sun on the eastern terrace to the late afternoon sun by the pool. The immediate environment is urban; the view is of other homes and streets, providing a sense of social security and safety, though less spatial privacy than remote villas. Facilities like hospitals and primary schools are accessible within 5 kilometers, which is practical for families. The distance to the coast means residents make a conscious choice to travel to the beach, but the tourism of the coast penetrates less into daily life here.
The living environment of Bigastro is typical for an inland Spanish municipality: functional and densely populated, with a local atmosphere. Within a 2-kilometer radius, there are 38 restaurants and 7 schools, pointing to a lively social structure. The Orihuela Miguel Hernández train station is 0.9 kilometers away, offering public transport options to the coast or major cities like Alicante and Murcia. The area is flat (37m above sea level), making cycling and walking in the vicinity accessible. The presence of 16 pharmacies nearby underscores the region's care function. Life here is less focused on tourism and more on local Spanish village and city culture. Residents become part of a local community, with holiday destinations by the sea a driving distance away.
This map shows the position of the villa in Bigastro. Note the immediate proximity to the supermarket (red block) and the station (blue) less than 1 kilometer away. The distance to the coast (blue zone) is clearly visible.
Bigastro is located in the southern tip of the province of Alicante, in the Vega Baja del Segura comarca. The project is positioned as an affordable alternative to direct coastal towns like Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa. The location is central between the city of Orihuela and the Mediterranean coastline. In the region, this project is unique due to the combination of the villa's physical size (5 bedrooms) and the relatively low price per square meter, facilitated by the inland position. It forms a hybrid location: not tourist-oriented, yet central to tourist amenities.
The strategic location in the Vega Baja del Segura ensures a balance between accessibility and tranquility. The nearest beaches (Cala de lo Ferri, Playa Cala La Mosca) are 20 kilometers away as the crow flies; this is measured as the crow flies, so practically about 25-30 minutes drive by road. For golfers, Club de Golf La Finca is 8.8 kilometers away, a 15-minute drive. Alicante-Elche International Airport is approximately 40 kilometers away. For daily groceries, the distance is negligible: 68 meters to the supermarket and 155 meters to the pharmacy. A hospital is located 4.4 kilometers away. A private car is strongly recommended for beach and leisure trips, but not essential for basic amenities.

The climate in Bigastro is characterized by an average annual temperature of 18.9°C. With over 3,844 hours of sun per year, this area ranks among the sunniest in Europe. The swimming season lasts approximately 6 months, with water temperatures of 20°C or higher reached from May through October. The inland location, sheltered by the surrounding valley, results in less sea breeze than directly on the coast, which can make the heat feel more intense during summer months. The elevation of 37 meters above sea level has minimal impact on the climate. For gardening enthusiasts, this implies a long growing season for Mediterranean plants.

Although Bigastro is inland, the sea is never far away. Three beaches are located 20 kilometers away: Cala de lo Ferri, Playa Cala La Mosca, and Playa Rocío del Mar. These beaches consist mainly of pebbles and sandbanks. For beach lovers, this implies a car ride, but one avoids the crowds of coastal towns in summer. Athletes can visit Golf La Finca (8.8 km) or, for more luxury facilities, Las Colinas Golf & Country Club (16 km). The private garden with pool offers a recreational zone directly at the home, reducing the need to leave for relaxation.

Comparison with surrounding projects shows a clear price difference. Projects like 'FALCO 8 LUXURY HOUSE' in Benissa and 'VILLA ROMA 15' in Finestrat command prices starting from €4.25 million and €4.45 million. These extreme price differences are explained by location (direct seaside) and exclusivity of those areas. Bigastro, on the other hand, offers a much more accessible entry price of €699,000 for a similar property type (Detached Villa). While comparison projects are often 'new', this project is from 2013. The location of Bigastro is not tourist-centric like Benissa or Altea, but more functional and local. For buyers prioritizing square meters and bedroom count over sea views, the Bigastro option is financially more attractive. Additionally, the Southern Costa Blanca (Alicante) is generally priced lower than the Northern Costa Blanca (Calpe/Benissa). However, projects in direct proximity to the coast (like in Torrevieja) often ask higher prices per m² due to beach proximity, even if build quality is comparable.
