Project Analysis

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

Location

The villa is located in Benigembla, an inland town within the Marina Alta region of Alicante. It is positioned to offer proximity to local amenities, including a pharmacy just 70 metres away and a supermarket within 2.8 km. While offering a peaceful rural setting, it is accessible to larger towns and the coast, albeit at a distance requiring travel.

Layout

This property is configured to accommodate varied household needs, featuring a main living area and a separate ground-floor apartment. The inclusion of multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, alongside distinct living spaces and kitchens, supports extended family living, hosting guests, or generating rental income. The outdoor spaces, including a private pool and summer kitchen, enhance its appeal for those seeking a lifestyle focused on relaxation and social gatherings.

Project Status

The villa is described as 'Gereed' (Ready), indicating that construction is complete and the property is available for immediate occupation. This status allows prospective buyers to view the finished product and move in without awaiting further construction phases, simplifying the purchasing timeline.

Points of Attention

This property is situated inland, meaning it does not offer direct proximity to the Mediterranean Sea or coastal beaches. While local amenities are accessible, the distance to major international airports (Alicante and Valencia) is significant, requiring considerable travel time. Golf courses are also located at some distance from the property.

Lifestyle & Surroundings

This property is suited for individuals or families seeking a permanent residence or a holiday home in a traditional Spanish setting, away from the immediate coast but with practical amenities nearby. The inclusion of a self-contained apartment makes it appropriate for multi-generational living, accommodating visiting family or friends, or for those looking to generate supplementary income through holiday rentals. Its location in Benigembla appeals to those who appreciate a quieter, rural lifestyle with access to nature and outdoor activities like hiking and cycling, while still being within reach of larger towns and coastal resorts for leisure and shopping. The ample outdoor space and private pool cater to those who enjoy outdoor living and entertaining. Prospective buyers should consider the inland location and the need for transport to access coastal areas or major airports, as the property is not directly on the coast or close to international travel hubs.

Build Quality & Finishing

The villa presents a maintained standard of finish, designed for comfortable living and entertaining. Key features include double glazing for enhanced insulation and sound reduction. The property offers a south-facing orientation, maximising natural light. A notable element is the glazed terrace, which provides a usable dining space with views. Internally, the main living area includes a spacious lounge with a wood-burning fireplace and a fully equipped modern kitchen. The accommodation comprises four bedrooms and four bathrooms, distributed between the main house and the self-contained apartment. The apartment benefits from its own entrance, two bedrooms, two shower rooms, a kitchen with laundry facilities, and a living area. Outdoor amenities include a 22 m² enclosed summer kitchen with a bar and dining area, an 8 x 4 m swimming pool with an outdoor shower, and a Mediterranean garden with an automatic irrigation system. Parking is provided via a garage (currently used as a workshop), a carport, and additional space for several vehicles. Gas central heating is supplied via a communal tank, and the property is connected to mains water, electricity, and sewage.

Regional Comparison

Compared to coastal developments such as APARTMENTS PALANGRE BEACH or EDIFICIO SUN & CENTER in Torrevieja, which are priced from €155,000 and €169,000 respectively and focus on direct beach access and urban amenities, this villa in Benigembla offers a different lifestyle proposition. The Benigembla property is a detached house with a larger plot and private outdoor space, including a pool, appealing to those who prioritise space, privacy, and a more rural setting. Its price point of €469,000 is higher than the Torrevieja apartments, reflecting the detached nature, larger size, and land. Properties like OASIS LAGUNA 2 - FASE II, priced from €227,000, might offer a blend of amenities and a more residential feel, but typically within a larger complex rather than a standalone villa. Benigembla's inland location distinguishes it further, offering a more traditional Spanish village atmosphere and proximity to nature, which is less common in densely populated coastal areas. While coastal properties often benefit from immediate sea access and a wider array of tourist-oriented facilities, Benigembla provides access to hiking, a quieter environment, and proximity to historical sites like Pla de Petracos, serving a buyer profile that values tranquility and a connection to the natural landscape over immediate beach proximity.
