This detached finca is situated in the countryside near Orxeta, an inland village in the province of Alicante on the Costa Blanca. The property comprises a main residence of 280 m² with five bedrooms and three bathrooms, a self-contained two-bedroom guest cottage, and a total plot of 27,500 m² divided across four parcels. Completed in 2011, the estate includes a summer kitchen, garage, workshop and home office. The nearest beaches of Villajoyosa are approximately 7.3 km away in a straight line; daily errands require a car, with the nearest supermarket at 4.5 km and the village of Orxeta under 2 km by road.
Within the wider regional market, this property occupies a segment that differs fundamentally from the coastal apartment stock. Comparable listings such as Palangre Beach in Torrevieja (from €160,000), Sun & Center in Torrevieja (from €169,000) and Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso (from €227,000) represent urbanised coastal or near-coastal apartment living, priced per unit with communal facilities and walkable amenities. This finca, at €785,000, is priced on land value, built area and multi-unit configuration: 280 m² of main residence, an independent two-bedroom cottage, a guest suite and outbuildings on 27,500 m². The trade-off is structural. The coastal apartments offer beach proximity, low maintenance and resale liquidity in high-demand resort towns; the finca offers space, privacy, mountain views, income potential from the cottage and independence from communal arrangements, but requires a car for every errand and involves land management. Geographically, Orxeta sits in the Marina Baixa, inland of Villajoyosa and Benidorm. Compared with other inland finca locations in the province of Alicante, its position is relatively strong: golf at 5.2 km, a hospital at 6.3 km, beaches at 7.3 km and Benidorm's full infrastructure within 15 minutes. More remote inland municipalities often involve 30–45 minute drives to comparable services. Buyers comparing this property against new-build coastal apartments should recognise they are evaluating different propositions: a lifestyle purchase with land and rental units against a lock-and-leave holiday base. Both carry different cost structures, the finca with land maintenance and multi-building upkeep, the apartments with community fees and potentially higher purchase premiums per square metre. The Costa Blanca North market, in which Orxeta sits, has historically shown steadier inland demand than the southern Costa Blanca, driven by permanent residents rather than seasonal tourism, which is relevant context for long-term value considerations.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property lies inland from the coast, in a rural setting between Orxeta, Finestrat and Villajoyosa. Access is via a tarmac road to the front gates. The surroundings are agricultural and mountainous, with the Puig Campana massif nearby. Benidorm and its full range of services are within a short drive, while Alicante airport is roughly 45 minutes away by car.
The property functions as a rural estate for permanent residence, multi-generational living or combined private use with rental income from the guest cottage. Five bedrooms, two independent guest units, private parking for four or more vehicles, air conditioning, a fireplace and solar panels cover the practical requirements of year-round country living at some distance from urban infrastructure.
This is not a new-build project. The main residence was completed in 2011 and is documented as fully legal and registered. The property is delivered in completed condition, with existing structures including the guest cottage, summer kitchen, workshop and office. No construction phase or delivery schedule applies; purchase concerns an existing, finished estate.
The property does not include a swimming pool, although the plot offers space for one. There is no direct beach access; the nearest coast is roughly 7 km away. Public transport is not practical for daily use and a car is necessary. No communal facilities, urban services or residential management are present. The listing contains no certified energy label and no fixed price structure beyond the single asking price.
This property suits buyers in recognisable situations rather than a general profile. It is relevant for households seeking multi-generational accommodation, as the main house and the independent guest cottage allow separate living arrangements on one estate. It also fits buyers combining private use with rental income: the cottage is connected to mains utilities and functions as a self-contained unit, and the guest suite near the summer kitchen can serve short-stay visitors. Buyers requiring space for a home-based business or workshop benefit from the dedicated office and storage buildings. The property is less practical for buyers without a car or those wanting walkable amenities, as the nearest supermarket is 4.5 km away and public transport is not a realistic option. It also requires an appetite for land management: 27,500 m² across four plots, including one parcel dedicated to maintenance, involves ongoing upkeep. Buyers focused primarily on beach access should note the 7 km distance to the coast. The configuration is relevant for permanent residence given the fireplace, hot A/C and solar panels suited to year-round use, and for buyers prioritising privacy, mountain views and legal certainty, as the structures are stated to be fully legal and registered.
The main residence, completed in 2011, shows a finishing level associated with that period of Spanish construction. Floors in the living areas are high-quality laminate wood; the master suite and second suite both include fitted wardrobes, with the second offering a dedicated walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom with double vanity. A separate family shower room serves the living areas. Climate control is installed throughout: air conditioning with heating function, plus a fireplace as a secondary heat source, which is a practical combination for an inland property where winter temperatures fall below coastal levels. Solar panels on the roof offset electricity consumption for a building of this footprint. The kitchen is fully fitted with a central island, an informal breakfast table and direct access to the covered terrace and summer kitchen. Externally, the finishes are functional rather than decorative: a tarmac driveway with gated entrance, a garage with parking for four or more vehicles, a storage workshop and a home office. The guest cottage is fully independent, with two bedrooms, a bathroom and an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, connected to mains electricity and water. The guest suite by the summer kitchen includes its own shower room and air conditioning. The overall condition is recorded as excellent. No certified energy label is stated in the available data, which is common for pre-2021 rural properties; buyers should request the existing energy performance certificate during due diligence.
The asking price is €785,000 as a single figure, not a from-price across multiple units, as this concerns one existing property. The price reflects the combination of a 280 m² main residence, a two-bedroom guest cottage with rental potential, a separate guest suite, outbuildings and 27,500 m² of land. Compared with apartments in the wider region, which start from approximately €160,000 in Torrevieja, this property occupies a different segment of the market: rural land value, built area and income potential from the independent units determine the valuation rather than coastal location. Purchase costs, notary fees and taxes are additional.
Daily life at this estate is structured around the rhythm of rural inland living with the services of the coast within driving distance. Mornings typically begin on the covered terrace or in the garden, oriented south-east to south-west, with mountain and open-country views across the valley. The main house is arranged around a reception hall, a formal lounge with garden access, a dining room with a private bar seating ten or more, and a semi-oval fitted kitchen with central island and breakfast area. Two generous suites occupy the sleeping wing, one measuring approximately 60 m² with walk-in shower room. A practical day follows the pattern of most inland properties: a drive of under five minutes to Orxeta village, 4.5 km to the nearest supermarket, and roughly 5 km to the pharmacy. Hospitals are 6.3 km away. The plot itself absorbs much of daily life: a summer kitchen with an adjacent self-contained guest suite, a two-bedroom guest cottage on an adjacent parcel connected to mains water and electricity, a storage workshop and a private home office. Evenings tend to centre on the property rather than on its surroundings, as the nearest restaurants and social life require a short drive to Orxeta, Finestrat or the coast. The scale of the land, 27,500 m² across four plots, means maintenance is a recurring consideration: one plot is dedicated to estate upkeep. The climate control combination of air conditioning, hot A/C and a fireplace covers both summer heat and the cooler inland winter months, when temperatures drop further than on the coast. Solar panels visible on the roof reduce running costs for a property of this size.
The immediate environment is agricultural and mountainous. Orxeta, a small inland village, lies under 2 km away and covers basic daily needs; the nearest large supermarket is 4.5 km from the property. Finestrat is a 10-minute drive, and Villajoyosa with its beaches and fuller service provision is roughly 20 minutes by road. Healthcare is structured in layers: a pharmacy at 5.1 km and a hospital at 6.3 km. The road network is adequate, with a tarmac road running directly to the property gates, which is not standard for rural fincas in the region. The surroundings are quiet year-round; inland villages do not experience the seasonal population swings of the coastal resorts, so the character of the area changes little between August and February. Recreational infrastructure within reach includes Puig Campana Golf at 5.2 km and the golf facilities of Benidorm at under 10 km. An EV charging point is available at 5.9 km, which matters for electric vehicle owners given the daily driving distances. For daily life, the practical consequence is that every errand involves a car trip of five to fifteen minutes, while the property itself provides the space, views and privacy that the immediate surroundings do not offer in reverse.
The map shows the property in its rural setting between Orxeta village and the Puig Campana mountain range, with the coast at Villajoyosa and Benidorm to the east and the beaches, golf courses and service points marked at their actual distances. The road access via tarmac route to the gates is visible on the local road network.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Orxeta is positioned in the Marina Baixa comarca, the inland hinterland behind Villajoyosa and Benidorm on the Costa Blanca North. The village sits below the Puig Campana massif, roughly 10 minutes from Finestrat, 15 minutes from Benidorm and 20 minutes from the coast at Villajoyosa. Alicante city and its airport are approximately 45 minutes south via the AP-7 and N-332 corridors. The location combines inland tranquillity with working access to the full service infrastructure of one of the most developed stretches of the Spanish Mediterranean coast, which distinguishes it from more remote inland municipalities in the province.
Distances from the property, measured in straight lines: the beaches of Platja del Paradís, Platja Varador and Platja del Estudiants at Villajoyosa are 7.3–7.4 km away, roughly a 15–20 minute drive by road. Three golf courses fall within 10 km: Puig Campana Golf at 5.2 km, Meliá Villaitana at 9.8 km and Las Rejas at 9.9 km. Benidorm's full commercial and leisure infrastructure is approximately 15 minutes by car. Alicante-Elche airport lies approximately 45 minutes away by road, which is the standard access route for international arrivals. A car is required for all daily transport; there is no practical public transport alternative for this location.
The property sits inland at the foot of the Puig Campana massif, at an elevation that moderates summer heat slightly compared with the immediate coast while exposing the site to cooler winters. The orientation, south-east to south-west, provides sun exposure across the day on the terraces and garden. The Costa Blanca region records approximately 300 sunny days per year, with a swimming season running from May to October on the coast; at 7 km inland, the property shares this climate but with greater diurnal temperature variation. Rainfall is concentrated in autumn and early spring, typical for the province of Alicante. The mountain views from the site are a direct consequence of the topography: the plot faces open country towards the Puig Campana ridge. The rural setting means air quality is generally better than in the coastal resort zones, with no through-traffic near the property. The slope of the terrain and the distribution across four plots should be inspected on site, as elevation differences affect both usability and maintenance of the land.

The nearest beaches are at Villajoyosa, 7.3 km away in a straight line: Platja del Paradís, Platja Varador and Platja dels Estudiants, all sandy town beaches with the chiringuitos and summer facilities typical of the Costa Blanca. Villajoyosa's historic centre and its promenade lie slightly further along the same route. For golf, three courses are within 10 km: Puig Campana Golf at 5.2 km is the closest, while Meliá Villaitana and Las Rejas near Benidorm offer 18-hole facilities and a golf school. Hiking and mountain recreation begin directly at the property boundary, as the estate borders forest and mountain terrain leading towards Puig Campana itself, one of the most prominent peaks of the Marina Baixa. Water sports, marinas and the beaches of Benidorm are within a 20-minute drive. The property has room for a private pool on the plot, which would remove the dependence on the coast for swimming during the summer months.
