This spacious detached villa, located in the tranquil area of Lel near Pinoso, offers a lifestyle of space and privacy amidst the Alicante countryside. With impressive build quality and a focus on comfort, this property is an attractive option for those seeking a permanent residence or a peaceful retreat. The plot of over 10,000 m² ensures seclusion, while the existing infrastructure, including a heated swimming pool and a solar power system, contributes to a comfortable lifestyle. The villa combines rural tranquility with a functional layout and is already completed.
Compared to coastal projects, such as apartments in Torrevieja (from €160,000) or El Raso (from €227,000), this villa in Lel offers a significantly larger amount of private land and a more rural, secluded lifestyle. The price of €574,995 for an existing villa on a large plot reflects the scale and exclusivity of the rural offering, in contrast to the more compact and densely populated properties on the coast. Projects on the southern Costa Blanca often focus on tourism and recreation near the sea, emphasizing communal facilities and proximity to beaches and entertainment. The villa in Lel, however, appeals to a different audience: those who prioritize peace, space, and privacy over coastal proximity. Its construction status (completed in 1970 with modernizations) distinguishes it from typical new-build projects on the coast. The rural character, altitude (608m), and temperate climate contrast with the warmer, more humid coastal areas. The necessity of a car for transport is a common feature for many locations outside immediate town centers, but here the distance to both beaches and urban amenities is greater than with coastal projects.
