This detached villa stands on a plot of approximately 10,084 m² in Benitachell, in the Marina Alta region of the Costa Blanca. The property offers six bedrooms and three bathrooms across a living area of 323 m², with a private pool, terrace and garden. Completed in 1970 and offered key-ready with a fixed asking price of €1,595,000, the house is fully furnished and includes air conditioning, double glazing and a fitted kitchen. The elevated position at roughly 142 metres above sea level provides views towards the sea and the surrounding mountains.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Benitachell lies in the Marina Alta comarca between Moraira and Jávea, at about 142 metres elevation. The villa sits within reach of coves such as Cala del Moraig, roughly 2.9 km away as the crow flies. Golf facilities, marinas and sports centres are all located within a ten-kilometre radius, combining a tranquil inland-coastal setting with practical access to amenities.
With six bedrooms, three bathrooms and 323 m² of living space, the house accommodates large families or guests. Practical features include a fitted kitchen, laundry room, fitted wardrobes, storage room and a fully furnished delivery. Outdoor living is centred on the private pool, terrace, BBQ area, garden and porch, oriented towards sea and mountain views.
This is not a new-build development. The villa was completed in 1970 and is now offered key-ready in good condition as an existing home. Systems in place include air conditioning, double glazing, an intercom, a sprinkler system and cable or satellite connection. The asking price of €1,595,000 is fixed and reflects the property as delivered.
The property has three bathrooms for six bedrooms, which may limit simultaneous use for larger groups. No lift, underfloor heating or home automation is listed. The 1970 construction means buyers should factor in the age of the building and its installations. Public transport is limited to two lines with six stops, so daily life depends on car use.
This property fits buyers seeking substantial space and land rather than a low-maintenance lock-and-leave apartment. A family needing six bedrooms, or a household that regularly hosts guests, benefits from the layout of 323 m² plus extensive outdoor areas. Buyers wanting a rural-coastal lifestyle, large garden, private pool, privacy from neighbours, will recognise that here. The house also suits those planning partial relocation: the air conditioning, double glazing, laundry room and fully furnished state allow year-round occupation without major initial works. It is less suited to buyers who want to walk to shops and restaurants each day, since amenities within 2 km are limited to a few restaurants, banks and one café. Households without a car, or buyers wanting a modern new-build with contemporary energy performance, should weigh the 1970 construction date carefully and budget for inspection of the existing installations. The three bathrooms against six bedrooms may also matter for groups using all bedrooms simultaneously. Golfers benefit from Club de Golf Jávea at 1.8 km, and boat owners from the marinas at Moraira (4.8 km) and Jávea (8.3 km). Finally, the asking price positions the property in the upper segment of the local market, so it appeals to buyers whose budget matches detached villas with significant land rather than apartment-style alternatives.
The villa was built in 1970 and is presented in good condition with a practical rather than contemporary finishing level. The kitchen is fitted and equipped, and the utility spaces include a laundry room and a separate storage room. Bedrooms have built-in and fitted wardrobes, and the property is delivered fully furnished. Window glazing is double, which supports insulation and reduces outside noise in this quiet setting. Climate control consists of air conditioning units combined with a fireplace or chimney for cooler winter months, a common and workable setup for the region, where average monthly temperatures range from 11°C to 26°C. An intercom and a sprinkler system are installed, and cable or satellite connection is available. Given the construction date, the technical installations, plumbing, electrics and the pool system, should be assessed during a viewing or technical survey, as no renovation date is documented in the available data. The overall picture is a solid, maintained family villa with functional systems rather than a recently refurbished designer home. Outdoor areas follow the same logic: the pool, terrace, BBQ area, garden and porch are established features, and the sprinkler system indicates that garden maintenance has been structurally considered. Buyers comparing this with new-build villas in the region should note that a 1970 property will not match current building regulations or modern energy standards, and the fixed price should be weighed against any modernisation a buyer intends to undertake.
The villa is offered as an existing home with a fixed asking price of €1,595,000, this is not a from-price, and no unit variation applies. The price covers the fully furnished property of 323 m² on a plot of 10,084 m², with private pool, garden and terrace included. For context within the wider region, new-build apartments on the southern Costa Blanca start from roughly €160,000 to €227,000, placing this villa in a distinctly different segment of the market: larger land ownership, privacy and an established coastal position rather than compact new construction. Availability is immediate, as the property is key-ready.
Daily life at this villa revolves around space and privacy. The plot of over one hectare creates substantial distance from neighbours, and the elevated position at around 142 metres gives the house sightlines towards the sea and the mountains. Mornings can be spent on the porch or terrace; the private pool and BBQ area support outdoor living for most of the year given an annual average temperature of 18.2°C. The interior layout with six bedrooms and 323 m² of living area allows a household to spread out, with a fitted kitchen, laundry room and storage room covering practical needs. The immediate surroundings are quiet: Benitachell is a small municipality, and amenities within 2 km are limited to a handful of restaurants, banks and a café. This means groceries and larger services require short drives to Moraira, Teulada or Jávea. The rhythm of the area changes with the seasons, busy in summer when coastal tourism peaks, noticeably calmer outside the holiday months. The beaches nearby are coves rather than long sandy stretches: Cala del Moraig at 2.9 km, Cala dels Testos at 3.0 km and Cala de Llebeig at 3.6 km, all measured in a straight line. For sport and leisure, a municipal sports centre sits 3.1 km away, and two golf clubs are within six kilometres. A car is essential; Alicante airport is roughly 79 km away in a direct line, and Valencia airport about 100 km. Public transport exists but is minimal, with two lines and six stops serving the area.
Benitachell, officially El Poble Nou de Benitatxell, is a small municipality in the Marina Alta comarca, positioned between the coastal towns of Moraira and Jávea. The immediate surroundings of the villa are quiet and residential-rural in character, with the large plot reinforcing that tranquillity. Amenities within a 2 km radius are modest: five restaurants, three banks and one café. Daily shopping, healthcare and broader services require a short drive, with Moraira roughly 5 km away and Jávea slightly further, both reachable within ten minutes by car under normal conditions. The sports centre Polideportivo Municipal Teulada lies 3.1 km away (straight line), offering indoor facilities for year-round exercise. For transport, the area is served by two public bus lines with six stops in total, adequate for occasional trips but not for daily commuting without a car. Alicante, with about 339,000 inhabitants, lies 69 km away in a direct line; Valencia, with roughly 803,000 inhabitants, is 94 km away. Both cities are reachable for day trips or airport access. The N-332 and AP-7 motorway connect the region north-south, with the local road network winding through hilly terrain typical of Marina Alta, meaning actual driving distances are longer than straight-line figures suggest.
The map shows the villa's elevated position between Moraira and Jávea on the northern Costa Blanca. Nearby markers indicate the coves of Cala del Moraig and Cala dels Testos, the golf club at Jávea and the marinas along this stretch of coast. The Mediterranean dream of quiet coves and green hillsides is a defining feature of this part of Spain.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Benitachell occupies a quiet position on the northern Costa Blanca, between Moraira and Jávea and roughly midway between the two provincial centres of Alicante (69 km straight-line) and Valencia (94 km). The region, Marina Alta, is known for its coves, cliffs and green interior, contrasting with the flatter, more built-up southern Costa Blanca around Torrevieja. This position places the villa in a landscape-oriented part of the coast, where tourism is smaller in scale and the pace outside August is noticeably slower. Calpe and its landmark rock Ifach lie a short drive south; Denia and the ferry connection to Ibiza are reachable to the north via Jávea.
The nearest beaches are coves within walking-and-driving distance: Cala del Moraig at 2.9 km, Cala dels Testos at 3.0 km and Cala de Llebeig at 3.6 km straight-line. Golfers can reach Club de Golf Jávea at 1.8 km and Club de Golf Ifach at 6.0 km; a third course, Llebeig, sits at 10.6 km. Marinas for boating are Club Náutico Moraira (4.8 km), Club Náutico de Jávea (8.3 km) and Les Basetes (9.3 km). Electric-vehicle charging is available at im2 e-mobility, 2.5 km away, with further options at 6.4 km and 7.4 km. Airport access is a practical consideration: Alicante-Elche (ALC) is approximately 79 km away in a direct line and Valencia (VLC) about 100 km, translating to drive times of roughly an hour to an hour and a half. Public transport is limited, two lines, six stops, so a car is effectively required for daily life. All distances mentioned are straight-line measurements; road distances are longer in this hilly terrain.

The climate is Mediterranean with an annual average temperature of 18.2°C and monthly averages ranging from 11°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season extends to roughly five months, during which sea temperatures reach at least 20°C. The villa's elevation of 142 metres provides natural ventilation and views without the steep access roads found at higher inland properties. Rainfall in Marina Alta is moderate, concentrated mainly in autumn, and the hillside setting means the garden benefits from the installed sprinkler system during dry summer months. The surrounding landscape combines coastal coves with the green valleys and cliffs characteristic of the Marina Alta, a region noted for its scenery between the sea and the Montgó massif towards Jávea. The orientation of the porch and terrace towards the sea allows outdoor use for most of the year, and the fireplace covers the cooler winter evenings when temperatures drop towards the seasonal low.

The coastline near Benitachell is defined by small coves rather than extensive sandy beaches. Cala del Moraig (2.9 km straight-line) is the best-known local cove, set beneath dramatic cliffs with access via a winding road. Cala dels Testos (3.0 km) and Cala de Llebeig (3.6 km) are quieter alternatives, the latter reachable partly via walking trails through the surrounding countryside. For sailing and water sports, three marinas lie within ten kilometres: Moraira (4.8 km), Jávea (8.3 km) and Les Basetes (9.3 km). Golf is well represented, with Club de Golf Jávea just 1.8 km away and Club de Golf Ifach at 6.0 km near Calpe. The municipal sports centre in Teulada (3.1 km) provides indoor facilities. On the villa itself, recreation centres on the private pool, the terrace with BBQ area, and the extensive garden, making day-to-day leisure largely independent of the season or the crowds that the coves attract in July and August.

Within the wider coastal offering, this villa occupies a clearly different segment from the new-build apartment projects common on the southern Costa Blanca. Comparable listings such as Apartments Palangre Beach in Torrevieja (from €160,000), Edificio Sun & Center (from €169,000) and Oasis Laguna 2 in Urbanización El Raso (from €227,000) represent compact, community-style living in a flatter, denser and more tourism-driven environment. At €1,595,000, this Benitachell property offers what those projects cannot: a hectare of private land, six bedrooms, a private pool without shared ownership, and an established position in the greener Marina Alta. The northern Costa Blanca around Benitachell, Moraira and Jávea differs from the south in scale and character, smaller coves instead of long beaches, a slower building density, and a seasonal rhythm that remains residential outside the summer months. Villas in this price band in the region typically compete on view quality, plot size and proximity to the sea; this property combines an elevated 142-metre position with coves within three kilometres. Buyers weighing alternatives should also consider the trade-offs inherent to an existing 1970 building versus new construction: character and land on one side, modern regulations and energy performance on the other. In the immediate locality, the scarcity of large plots near the coast supports the pricing logic, while demand in Marina Alta has historically been driven by international buyers seeking exactly this combination of privacy and coastal access. The fixed asking price, rather than a from-price across units, reflects a single, specific property whose value is determined by its land, views and established condition rather than by a developer's price list.
