This detached villa is situated in the coastal municipality of Pilar de la Horadada, in the south of the Province of Alicante, roughly 66 km from the city of Alicante and about 1 km north of the regional border with Murcia. The property offers five bedrooms and two bathrooms across a built area of 344 m² on a plot of 618 m². The setting is urban with amenities within walking distance, and the nearest beaches on the Costa Blanca South lie approximately 3 km away. The asking price is from €3,600,000. The build status is recorded as completed, with an indicative completion date listed as 1970, which warrants verification with the vendor regarding the actual construction and refurbishment history.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa stands in an urban residential area of Pilar de la Horadada, with low-traffic streets and green spaces nearby. A supermarket is around 700 m away, and the town centre with its services lies roughly 1 km distant. The nearest beaches, Playa del Mojón and Cala de la Lombriz, are 3 to 3.5 km away. The AP-7 motorway is accessible within a short drive, connecting the area to both Alicante and Murcia airports.
The property functions as a large family villa with five bedrooms, a private pool, private garden, solarium, and garage parking for more than one vehicle. Interior spaces include a living-dining room, an independent fitted kitchen, and built-in wardrobes. Air conditioning is pre-installed with hot and cold function. Covered and private terraces extend the living area outdoors, oriented to the south east.
The listing is marketed as a new development with a completion status recorded as finished; the indicative completion year is listed as 1970, a discrepancy that should be clarified with the selling party. Prospective buyers should request documentation on construction dates, permits, and any renovations. Delivery is immediate in principle, subject to title and legal checks.
The property offers two bathrooms only, despite five bedrooms and 344 m² of built space, which some buyers may consider limited for a dwelling of this size. The listing does not mention communal facilities such as a gym or concierge. Energy efficiency certification is not stated. Electric vehicle charging requires a journey of approximately 4.5 km to the nearest public charging point.
This property fits a buyer seeking a detached villa with generous interior volume in a functioning Spanish town, within a short drive of the beaches of the southern Costa Blanca. Recognisable situations include: a large or multigenerational family needing five bedrooms who value space over direct sea frontage; a buyer relocating permanently who wants year-round services, schools, and health care within the municipality rather than in a seasonal resort; and an owner planning extended stays who prioritises a private pool, garden, garage, and terraces for outdoor living across a long warm season. Golf players may find the location workable, with Lo Romero roughly 4.3 km away and a cluster of courses including Las Ramblas and Las Colinas within 7.5 km. The property is less self-evidently suited to buyers who want to step directly onto the sand, given the 3 km distance to the beach, or who require multiple en-suite bathrooms, as the dwelling has two bathrooms plus a guest toilet. Buyers relying primarily on public transport should assess bus frequency carefully, though local stops exist. The flat terrain, at 34 m elevation with a 1% gradient towards the sea, makes walking and cycling practical for most residents. Those who want a quiet winter environment will note that the town maintains its population and services year-round, in contrast to more seasonal coastal zones. Finally, buyers intending to use an electric vehicle daily should factor in the distance to charging infrastructure, currently around 4.5 km or further.
The dwelling is listed with a fully fitted independent kitchen described as kitchen-lounge connected, built-in wardrobes in the bedrooms, and pre-installed air conditioning covering both hot and cold functions. Interior imagery shows a modern finish with an open relationship between kitchen, dining, and outdoor areas. Two bathrooms are included, one featuring a hydromassage bathtub according to the vendor description, plus an additional guest toilet. Exterior features comprise a covered terrace, a private terrace, a solarium, a private pool, an outdoor kitchen, and a private garden. Parking is provided in a garage with space for more than one vehicle. Security provisions listed are an entry phone system. The overall specification is that of a modern detached villa with standard contemporary systems rather than a documented high-certification build. Notably absent from the listing are an energy performance certificate rating, details of insulation standards, window glazing type, heating system specifics beyond the air conditioning, and any smart-home or home-automation provisions. Given the recorded completion year of 1970 against a "new construction" label, buyers are advised to request the technical file (ficha técnica), the occupancy certificate (cédula de habitabilidad), and evidence of any rebuild or comprehensive refurbishment to establish the actual condition and legal status of the structure. A technical survey (inspección técnica) by an independent architect is a standard step at this price level and would verify construction quality, damp status, pool installation permits, and electrical installation compliance.
The asking price is from €3,600,000 for a single villa of 344 m² built on a 618 m² plot, which corresponds to roughly €10,465 per built square metre. This positions the property well above the general price level of the wider area, where comparable listed developments in Torrevieja and Urbanización El Raso start between €160,000 and €227,000 for apartments of smaller scale. The premium reflects the detached format, plot size, five-bedroom layout, private pool, and proximity to the coast, though buyers should benchmark the price against recent completed sales of detached villas in Torre de la Horadada and Pilar de la Horadada rather than apartment stock. Availability concerns a single unit; the listed price is the starting price as supplied.
Daily life around this villa follows the rhythm of a consolidated coastal town rather than a purpose-built resort. Pilar de la Horadada has a resident population of roughly 24,300 people, which supports year-round services: shops, banks, pharmacies, schools, and health facilities within the municipality. The villa sits in a residential street environment described as low-traffic, with green areas in the vicinity, meaning that errands on foot or by bicycle are realistic for part of the week. The supermarket at approximately 700 m and several restaurants, banks, and cafés within a 2 km radius cover everyday needs without leaving town. The beach is not on the doorstep: the sand at Playa del Mojón lies about 3 km away, so a beach day involves a short drive or a brisk cycle rather than a stroll in swimwear. This positions the property between genuine town living and coastal leisure. Mornings can begin on the south-east facing terrace with sun from early in the day; the solarium extends usable outdoor hours into the afternoon and evening. The private pool and outdoor kitchen area, visible in the project imagery, allow dining and entertaining at home during the long warm season, which in this climate spans much of the year given average temperatures of 11–26°C. Out of the summer months the town retains its services and a substantial local population, so the area does not empty in the way purely tourist zones do. A car remains practical: golf courses, marinas, larger shopping centres, and hospitals all lie at driving distances between 4 and 8 km. Public transport exists, with 16 lines and 42 stops recorded, but a vehicle broadens access considerably.
The immediate environment combines residential calm with practical accessibility. The villa stands in a low-traffic street setting with green areas, and the daily service layer is close: a supermarket within roughly 700 m, a pharmacy at about 2.9 km, and a hospital at 7.8 km. The town centre of Pilar de la Horadada, about 1 km away, contains schools, health centres, police, and further retail. Recreational infrastructure within a 6 km radius includes the Rocódromo Municipal climbing facility at 1 km, Pinatar Arena sports centre at 2.9 km, and the Polideportivo Municipal at 3.5 km. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero and Puerto Deportivo de Lo Pagán, lie 5.3 and 5.5 km away respectively, supporting sailing and nautical activities. Three golf courses fall within 4.3 to 7.4 km. The terrain is flat, at 34 m elevation, which favours walking and cycling. With 16 public transport lines and 42 stops recorded, basic mobility without a car is possible, though a vehicle remains practical for beaches, golf, hospital visits, and airports.
The map situates the villa in the urban fabric of Pilar de la Horadada, on the flat coastal plain of the southern Costa Blanca. Note the short distance to the town's services, the 3 km to the nearest beaches, the golf cluster inland to the north-west, and the position between the AP-7 corridor and the Mar Menor to the south.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Pilar de la Horadada is the southernmost municipality of the Valencian Community, about 66 km south of Alicante and roughly 1 km north of the border with the Region of Murcia. This position places the property between two service regions: the Orihuela Costa and Torrevieja corridor to the north, and San Pedro del Pinatar and the Mar Menor to the south. The AP-7 motorway, reachable within minutes, links both directions, and two international airports, Alicante-Elche and Región de Murcia, serve the area. The municipality covers 78 km² with a 2025 population of about 24,300.
Beaches: Playa del Mojón lies approximately 3.0–3.2 km away and Cala de la Lombriz 3.5 km; the vendor description referencing 100 m to Las Higuericas beach in Torre de la Horadada does not match the supplied straight-line data and should be verified on site. Golf: Lo Romero at 4.3 km, Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 6.4 km, Las Colinas Golf & Country Club at 7.4 km. Airports: Alicante-Elche approximately 51 km straight-line, with the vendor citing 75 km by road and roughly 75 minutes; Murcia's international airport is cited by the vendor at around 36 minutes by car via the AP-7. Towns: Pilar de la Horadada centre 1 km; San Pedro del Pinatar roughly 5–6 km; shopping centres Dos Mares in San Javier and La Zenia Boulevard in Orihuela Costa at approximately 5 and 15 minutes' drive respectively. Supermarket 706 m; hospital 7.8 km; nearest public EV charger 4.5 km.

The location records 3,848 sunshine hours per year and a mean annual temperature of 18.7°C, with monthly averages ranging from about 11°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, extends to roughly five months. The villa sits at 34 m above sea level on essentially flat terrain, with a gradient of about 1% towards the coast, so no significant inclines affect walking, cycling, or garden use. The south-east orientation of the property means the main terraces receive morning and midday sun, while the solarium extends exposure later into the day. The nearby Observatorio de Aves bird observatory at 3.9 km and the coastal wetlands around the Mar Menor area indicate a natural environment of dunes, salt flats, and protected shoreline within a short drive, complementing the beach landscape.

The coastline supports swimming, snorkelling, and sailing, with club facilities at C.N. Villa de San Pedro (5.8 km) and the marinas at Torre de la Horadada and Lo Pagán. Golfers can reach Lo Romero (approximately 4.3 km), with Las Ramblas and Las Colinas within 7.4 km, all part of the wider Costa Blanca course network. Land-based sport is served by the municipal sports centre, Pinatar Arena, and a municipal climbing wall, while the flat terrain supports running and cycling year-round.

Within its price bracket, this villa occupies a different segment from most new-build stock on the southern Costa Blanca. Comparable listed developments such as Palangre Beach in Torrevieja (from €160,000), Sun & Center in Torrevieja (from €169,000), and Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso (from €227,000) are apartment products; the present property is a detached villa with a 618 m² plot, which explains the substantially higher entry price of €3,600,000. Compared with villa locations elsewhere in the region, Pilar de la Horadada offers a year-round town fabric with about 24,300 inhabitants and full municipal services, in contrast to the more seasonal Orihuela Costa urbanisations where winter populations thin considerably. Its position at the southern edge of the Valencian Community gives dual access to the Orihuela Costa and Torrevieja retail and beach corridor to the north and the San Pedro del Pinatar and Mar Menor area to the south, with two international airports within practical range. The trade-off against beachfront villa zones such as Torre de la Horadada's first line is distance to the sand: approximately 3 km here, against the vendor's claim of 100 m to Las Higuericas, a discrepancy requiring verification. Golf accessibility is a regional strength, with three courses within 7.5 km and roughly 21 across the wider Costa Blanca. Buyers comparing value should note that the two-bathroom configuration for a five-bedroom dwelling is atypical at this price level in nearby markets such as Orihuela Costa and the Mar Menor, where competing villas of similar scale frequently offer three or more bathrooms. Overall, the property competes on plot size, privacy, and town proximity rather than on frontline position or specification density.
