Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is positioned in Pedramala, part of the municipality of Benissa in Alicante. The setting is characterized by a mountainous landscape at an altitude of 549 meters. This elevation provides a panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding natural park. The environment is residential and quiet, heavily influenced by the topography of the area.
The villa's layout is designed across two levels, connected by a private lift, facilitating access within the home. The floor plan includes three bedrooms, featuring a master suite with a private bathroom. There is an option to add a fourth bedroom. The main floor hosts the living room and open kitchen, oriented to the southeast to capture natural light. Practical amenities include a double garage and additional parking space on the plot.
This property is classified as a new development. Construction utilizes modern techniques, including home automation, underfloor heating, and air conditioning. The property holds an Energy Rating A, indicating compliance with current standards for energy efficiency and thermal insulation.
Due to the hillside location, the plot features elevation changes, meaning the garden is terraced. At 549 meters above sea level, the microclimate can be cooler than the immediate coast. The nearest beach is a straight-line distance of 2.1 km, requiring driving. Public transport options are limited in the immediate vicinity, necessitating the use of a private vehicle.

Compared to projects directly on the coast in Moraira or Calpe, Pedramala offers higher elevation and increased privacy. Projects like FALCO 8 LUXURY HOUSE in Benissa are in a similar price bracket but typically demand a higher entry price (from €4,250,000). Compared to properties in Altea (from €6,490,000), this property offers a relatively lower entry price for comparable square footage. The distance to the sea is greater (2.1 km) than beachfront villas, but this affords a larger plot.
