This detached villa stands on a 928 m² private plot in a residential area of Mutxamel, a town of roughly 28,600 inhabitants in the comarca of Alacantí, about 8 km from Alicante as the crow flies. The house dates from 1970, offers 150 m² of living space with three bedrooms and one bathroom, and is key-ready. The plot includes a 12 x 6 metre private pool, a covered porch of approximately 30 m², a carport for two vehicles, a barbecue area and a garden with natural grass. The asking price is fixed at €635,000. A licence exists for adding a second bathroom.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property lies inland in an urban environment with daily amenities within walking distance: a supermarket at 227 metres and a pharmacy at 759 metres. The nearest beach, Platja de l'Horta-Mutxavista, sits 4.6 km away in a straight line, while Alicante city centre is roughly 8 km from the town. The airport of Alicante-Elche lies about 19 km away, so car travel times are longer than these direct figures suggest.
The house is arranged for outdoor family living: a large garden with trees and palm trees, a generous private pool, a covered terrace for year-round use and a barbecue area connected to the kitchen. Indoors there are three bedrooms, a living room, an independent kitchen and one bathroom, with a licence in place for a second. Mountain views and a fireplace complete the picture.
This is not a new-build project. The villa was completed in 1970 and retains its original condition, but it is maintained and ready to occupy without renovation work. Buyers should therefore expect construction techniques and finishes of that period, with the associated scope for modernisation rather than developer warranties or contemporary specifications.
The property has a single bathroom at present, although a licence permits a second. It is sold unfurnished. There is no mention of air conditioning; climate control consists of a fireplace. The villa is inland, so sea views are absent, and the airport requires a longer drive than coastal alternatives. The 1970 construction date rules out new-build guarantees.

This villa suits buyers who prioritise outdoor space and privacy over interior novelty. A family needing three bedrooms, a large pool for children and a garden with room to play will find the plot dimensions central to the offer. The existing single bathroom is a practical limitation for larger households, but the licence for a second bathroom removes the main administrative barrier to solving it. Second-home buyers seeking a low-maintenance base near the coast may prefer a newer, smaller property; here, the value lies in land, mature planting and an established residential street. Buyers who want to renovate gradually will appreciate that the house is habitable from day one, so works can be phased rather than urgent. The location works for people who want a genuine Spanish town environment, Mutxamel has its own municipal sports centre 2.0 km away, local schools and shops, while keeping Alicante within easy reach for work, healthcare at the hospital 2.8 km away, or cultural outings. A car is recommended for beach trips and the airport, but daily errands are possible on foot. Retirees, remote workers and families relocating permanently will recognise the combination: urban services, flat terrain at 77 metres elevation, a five-month swimming season with water at or above 20 °C, and an average annual temperature of 18.5 °C. Investors should note that the 1970 construction and original condition affect both renovation budgeting and rental positioning compared with new-build alternatives in the municipality.
The villa was completed in 1970 and retains its original condition, which the current owner has maintained to a standard that allows immediate occupation. In practical terms, this means traditional Spanish construction of that era: solid masonry walls, single-level living across 150 m², an independent kitchen with fitted cabinets and a dining nook, three generously sized bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, and one large family bathroom. Finishes and installations reflect their age, and buyers planning long-term ownership typically budget for progressive modernisation of kitchen, bathroom and electrical systems, although nothing prevents occupancy now. The property is connected to water, electricity and sewage, and a telephone line is present. Climate control currently consists of a fireplace; there is no air conditioning listed, which is worth noting given summer temperatures in the region. Externally, the construction quality is more generous: a covered porch of some 30 m², a private terrace, a barbecue area under an awning reached directly from the kitchen, an outdoor shower and toilet, and a carport sized for two vehicles. The 12 x 6 metre pool and the irrigation-dependent natural lawn are significant features that carry maintenance obligations as well as benefits. A licence already exists for building a second bathroom, which is documented permission rather than a vague possibility. The house is sold unfurnished, so the interior can be arranged to the buyer's own taste from the outset.
The asking price is fixed at €635,000. That figure covers a detached villa of 150 m² on a 928 m² plot with a private pool, a 30 m² covered porch, a carport for two vehicles, a barbecue area and an established garden. For context, new-build projects in the same municipality are listed from around €450,000, though these typically offer modern villas on smaller plots without the mature garden and pool dimensions found here. The house is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase. Delivery is immediate; the 1970 completion date is factual. The property is sold unfurnished, and the licensed option to add a second bathroom allows buyers to adapt the home to family needs without a lengthy permit process.
Daily life here revolves around the plot as much as the house. The 928 m² of private land provides a 12 x 6 metre pool, lawns, mature trees and palm trees, an outdoor shower and toilet, a storage-pantry room and a carport for two cars. The covered porch of roughly 30 m² functions as an outdoor dining and sitting room for most of the year, given the regional climate with average monthly temperatures between 12 and 26 °C. A barbecue area with direct access from the kitchen makes outdoor cooking a routine option rather than an occasional event. Inside, the layout is straightforward: a living room, an independent kitchen with a dining nook, three bedrooms and one bathroom, with a licence in place to add a second bathroom. The house was built in 1970 and remains in its original condition, well maintained and habitable from day one, but buyers looking for contemporary finishes will find scope for updating. The neighbourhood is urban with amenities on foot: the supermarket is 227 metres away and a pharmacy 759 metres, with two restaurants, four pharmacies and two cafés within a two-kilometre radius. Public transport is available in the wider area, 26 lines and 50 stops are recorded, so a car is useful but not essential for every trip. The rhythm of the area is that of a working Spanish town rather than a resort: quiet residential streets, local shops, and the beaches of the Costa Blanca a short drive away.
Mutxamel (also written Muchamiel) is a town of about 28,600 inhabitants in the comarca of Alacantí, positioned inland but closely tied to Alicante, which lies 8 km away as the crow flies and counts over 339,000 residents. The setting is urban with walkable amenities: the supermarket at 227 metres and the pharmacy at 759 metres make daily shopping possible without a car, and within two kilometres there are two restaurants, four pharmacies and two cafés. Healthcare is accessible, with a hospital 2.8 km away in a straight line. For sport, the Polisportiu Municipal de Mutxamel sits 2.0 km from the property and the Poliesportiu Sant Joan d'Alacant at 2.2 km. The terrain is essentially flat, the gradient to the beach is around 1.7%, and the town sits at 77 metres above sea level, so cycling and walking are realistic options. Two viewpoints in the Parque de Orgegia, at 4.8 and 4.9 km, offer green space for weekend walks. Public transport coverage includes 26 lines and 50 stops in the area, and train stations such as Luceros and Mercado in Alicante lie between roughly 8.6 and 9.8 km away. The nearest electric-vehicle charging point is 2.3 km from the house.
The map shows the villa's position within Mutxamel's urban fabric, with Alicante to the south-west and the beaches of El Campello and Sant Joan to the east. Straight-line distances to golf, hospital, marinas and the coast are indicated; road distances will be longer.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Mutxamel occupies a transitional position between the city of Alicante and the northern Costa Blanca towns such as El Campello and Sant Joan d'Alacant. At 8 km from Alicante, residents benefit from a provincial capital, its old town, port and hospital network, without living in it, and at roughly 5 to 7 km from the coast the town balances inland tranquillity with beach access. Elche lies 28 km away and Murcia 76 km, placing the property within range of the wider south-eastern Spanish region. Compared with pure resort locations, Mutxamel is a year-round community with its own economy and services, which affects how the area feels outside the summer season.
Beaches lie within a short drive: Platja de l'Horta-Mutxavista at 4.6 km and Platja dels Banyets de la Reina at 5.8 km, both measured in a straight line, with Platja de l'Almadrava at 6.0 km and Platja de l'Amerador at 6.9 km beyond. Golfers can reach Club de Golf Bonalba at 2.2 to 2.9 km depending on the reference point, while Club de Golf El Plantío lies 14 km away and Puig Campana Golf 25 km. Two marinas serve the coast: Club Náutico Campello at 5.1 km and Club Náutico Costablanca at 7.1 km. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 19 km away in a direct line, so the actual drive takes longer; Valencia airport sits about 118 km away. By car, Alicante city and its beaches are straightforward day trips, and Elche, with around 234,700 inhabitants, lies 28 km away. Within Mutxamel itself, the hospital at 2.8 km and the supermarket at 227 metres anchor daily practicality.

The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 18.5 °C and monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in the coolest months to 26 °C in summer. The swimming season extends to five months, during which sea water reaches at least 20 °C, which matches the presence and use of the 12 x 6 metre pool from late spring into autumn. The town stands at 77 metres above sea level with a flat gradient towards the coast, so there are no notable climbs between the house and the beaches roughly 4.6 to 6.9 km away. The fireplace listed among the features covers the mild winter months, when temperatures average around 12 °C. Green surroundings are available at the Parque de Orgegia viewpoints under 5 km away, and the mountain views noted at the property reflect the inland position at the foot of the hills behind the Costa Blanca coast. Rainfall is limited and concentrated outside the summer, typical of the province of Alicante.

The nearest stretch of sand is Platja de l'Horta-Mutxavista, 4.6 km away in a straight line, followed by the cove of Platja dels Banyets de la Reina at 5.8 km, a sheltered bay known for its rocky headlands and snorkelling. Platja de l'Almadrava (6.0 km) and Platja de l'Amerador (6.9 km) add further options within a ten-minute drive. For boating, Club Náutico Campello lies 5.1 km away and Club Náutico Costablanca at 7.1 km. Golf is a defining leisure feature of the area: Club de Golf Bonalba is only 2.2 km from the property, making an early tee time a realistic routine, while Club de Golf El Plantío (14 km) and Puig Campana Golf (25 km) broaden the choice. On the plot itself, recreation is built in, the 12 x 6 metre pool, barbecue area, outdoor shower and garden provide daily options without leaving home. The municipal sports centre 2.0 km away covers indoor sports and community activities.

Within Mutxamel itself, the new-build supply offers direct comparison points. Residencial Alicante Panoramic lists villas from €450,000 and Residencial Bonalba Green - Villas from €465,000, while Oceanic Apartments in Rojales, further south on the Costa Blanca, starts at €475,000. Against these, the fixed asking price of €635,000 for this 1970 villa positions it above the new-build entry level in the same municipality. What the premium buys is quantifiable: a 928 m² plot, new-build villas in the area typically occupy smaller parcels, a 12 x 6 metre pool, mature gardens with established trees and palms, and additional structures such as the 30 m² covered porch, carport, storage room and barbecue area. The trade-off is equally concrete: original 1970 construction and finishes, one bathroom instead of the two or more standard in new builds, and no developer warranty. Buyers comparing the two routes should weigh immediate land and outdoor space against contemporary specifications, energy performance and lower maintenance in the first years. The location also differs from Rojales: Mutxamel sits 8 km from Alicante and about 19 km from Alicante-Elche airport, whereas Rojales lies closer to the southern Costa Blanca and Torrevieja. In regional terms, the median provincial income of €15,750 frames the local economy as modest and domestically driven, with Mutxamel functioning as a commuter and family town rather than an international resort enclave. For buyers prioritising a large private plot within reach of a provincial capital, this property competes on land value; for those prioritising turnkey modernity, the from-priced new-build alternatives in the same town present a different proposition.
