This detached villa is located in Moraira, a small upmarket coastal town in the Marina Alta comarca of Alicante province, roughly 80 km north of Alicante city and 100 km south of Valencia. The property offers four bedrooms and six bathrooms across 229 m² of living space, set on a plot of 1,018 m². The house is key-ready and is offered at a fixed asking price of €2,085,000. Platja de l'Ampolla, the town's main beach, lies approximately 0.6 km away as the crow flies, with the centre of Moraira and its marina within short walking distance.
Within Moraira itself, the closest comparable is ZARAGOZA 32, a new-build development priced from €1,980,000. Against that project, this villa offers a larger plot, 1,018 m² against typical new-build plots, and an established garden with mature planting, but with a 1970 construction date rather than new-build standards and warranties. The €2,085,000 asking price positions it slightly above the entry point of the new-build alternative, which buyers will typically weigh against the value of plot size, location within walking distance of the beach, and the cost of any modernisation. Further afield, the comparison shifts. Oceanic Apartments in Rojales, from €475,000, and Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva, from €380,000, sit on the southern Costa Blanca, roughly 80 to 100 km south. Those locations offer lower entry prices but a different proposition: inland or golf-urbanisation settings rather than a coastal town centre, and longer distances to the beach. The price gap of over €1.5 million reflects location above all, proximity to the sea in an established town versus urbanisation living. Moraira's broader market context is shaped by its character as a low-rise, upmarket town in the Marina Alta. It has avoided the high-rise development seen around Benidorm and much of the southern Costa Blanca, and its stock consists largely of villas on generous plots. The town's position between two airports, Alicante at 75 km and Valencia at 103 km straight-line, gives it dual international access, which supports year-round occupancy and resale liquidity. Buyers comparing this villa with new-build options should factor in transfer tax on a resale purchase versus VAT on new build, and the likelihood of renovation expenditure on a 1970 property.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in Moraira, part of the municipality of Teulada, at an elevation of about 17 metres above sea level. The town centre, the marina at Club Náutico Moraira (0.9 km) and the beach at Platja de l'Ampolla (0.6 km straight-line) are all within walking range. The gradient towards the sea is approximately 2.2%, meaning the terrain is essentially flat. Nearby are some 50 restaurants, several cafés, pharmacies and banks within a 2 km radius.
With four bedrooms, six bathrooms and 229 m² of living area on a plot of over 1,000 m², the villa suits households seeking space and privacy close to the sea. The south orientation maximises natural light, and the design includes spacious terraces, a private pool and Mediterranean garden elements. Everyday amenities, shops, medical services, dining, are reachable on foot, which reduces dependence on the car for daily errands.
This is not a new-build development. The villa was completed in 1970 and is described as key-ready, indicating it can be occupied in its current state. The listing is for an existing home with a fixed asking price of €2,085,000. Completion and handover dates mentioned in any documentation should be treated as indicative; buyers should verify the exact condition and any renovation history through inspection.
The property does not offer golf-front access, sea-front positioning, or communal facilities such as a shared pool or spa; the pool is private. There is no lift, and with a 1970 construction date, insulation, glazing and installations may not match current new-build standards. The living area of 229 m², while generous, is moderate relative to the plot size. No information is available on energy performance or parking arrangements in the source data.
This property fits buyers who want a detached villa within walking distance of both a beach and a functioning town centre, a combination that is relatively scarce on this stretch of coast. It suits households that plan to spend extended periods in Spain rather than short holiday visits only, since Moraira maintains its services through the winter. Four bedrooms and six bathrooms allow for family use, guest stays or two couples sharing. The flat approach to the sea, a 2.2% gradient, makes the location practical for older buyers who want to avoid hills, a common constraint in coastal towns further south. Buyers who prefer a quieter, low-rise town over the busier resort centres of the southern Costa Blanca will recognise that profile here. The 1970 construction date means the property suits buyers who are comfortable with an older building, whether as a move-in-ready home or as a base for phased renovation. It is less suited to those seeking a newly built home with modern energy performance certificates and developer warranties. Similarly, buyers requiring golf-course proximity as a primary criterion should note that the nearest course, Club de Golf Ifach, is 2.2 km away as the crow flies, reachable, but not on the doorstep.
The villa dates from 1970 and is presented as key-ready, meaning it is habitable in its current condition. Based on the listing images, the interior features contemporary elements: large arched and glazed windows in the living areas, an open plan connecting lounge and dining spaces with pool views, and bedrooms with floor-to-ceiling glazing opening onto balconies. Outdoor areas include a private pool, lounge terracing, stone detailing, wooden pergolas and Mediterranean planting. Buyers should approach a property of this age with a technical inspection as standard practice. Elements that typically warrant verification in 1970s villas include the condition of the roof and waterproofing, the electrical installation, plumbing, window frames and single versus double glazing, and the insulation standard generally. No energy performance data is included in the source material, so no assumption should be made about thermal efficiency. The six bathrooms suggest at least part of the property has been refurbished at some stage, as a 1970 layout would rarely include this count originally. The south orientation supports passive solar gain in winter and natural light throughout the day. The 1,018 m² plot allows outdoor space that is generous relative to the 229 m² built area, leaving room for landscaping, parking arrangements or an extension subject to local planning rules in Teulada municipality.
The villa is offered at a fixed asking price of €2,085,000. This is an existing home, not a new-build project with a price list, so there is a single asking price rather than a range of unit prices. Within the local market context, the nearby new-build development ZARAGOZA 32 in Moraira lists prices from €1,980,000, which places this property in a comparable segment. Buyers should budget additionally for purchase costs (transfer tax, notary and registry fees) and, given the 1970 construction date, potentially for modernisation works. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life at this address revolves around proximity to the sea and the town. Platja de l'Ampolla lies about 0.6 km away in a straight line, roughly a four-minute walk according to the listing, and the sandy Platgetes beach and the Cala del Portitxol cove are only slightly further. The rhythm of the day can plausibly include a morning walk along the seafront, errands in the town centre and afternoons on the terrace or at the pool, which faces south and receives sun for most of the day. Moraira functions year-round, which matters for anyone considering extended stays outside the summer months. The immediate area counts around 50 restaurants, four cafés, three pharmacies and four banks within 2 km, so basic services do not require a drive. The flat terrain between the villa and the beach, an average gradient of about 2.2%, makes walking and cycling realistic options. The villa itself is organised around the relationship between indoors and outdoors: arched windows, large glazing and terraces connect the living spaces with the garden and pool. Six bathrooms across four bedrooms suggests the layout accommodates guests or multigenerational use. In the evening, the town's marina and seafront promenade are within a quarter of an hour on foot, giving the location a quiet residential base with a lively centre at walking distance.
The villa's position places the essentials of Moraira within walking distance: the beach, the marina, and the town's restaurants and shops. Within 2 km the area offers roughly 50 restaurants, four cafés, three pharmacies and four banks, which covers day-to-day needs without a car. Eleven public transport stops are recorded in the locality, giving limited but real alternatives to driving. For rail connections, Teulada station lies 4.9 km away in a straight line, with Benissa at 5.2 km and Calp at 9.5 km. These stations connect towards Alicante and Valencia on the regional network. For sports facilities, the Polideportivo Municipal Teulada is 4.4 km away, and two swimming pools, a community pool at 0.5 km and Montecala Pool at 2.7 km, are within easy reach. The terrain is flat towards the coast, at about 17 metres elevation, so the walk to the sea involves no significant climbing. The nearest beach, Platja de l'Ampolla, is 0.6 km away as the crow flies; road distances will be somewhat longer. Daily life here is oriented towards the coast: beaches, the marina, seafront dining and coastal walks form the backbone of local leisure, while larger shopping and cultural trips lead to the surrounding towns.
The map shows the villa's position in Moraira relative to Platja de l'Ampolla (0.6 km), the marina (0.9 km) and Club de Golf Ifach (2.2 km). Note that all distances shown are straight-line; walking and driving routes are somewhat longer. The flat coastal terrain and the concentration of beaches and amenities within one kilometre are clearly visible.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Moraira occupies a position on the northern Costa Blanca, in the Marina Alta comarca, roughly midway between Alicante (66 km straight-line) and Valencia (98 km). It belongs to the municipality of Teulada, with the inland town of the same name a few kilometres from the coast. The town is known as a low-rise, residential coastal settlement, smaller and quieter than Calp or Benidorm to the south, which shapes the character of the local property market. Within the region, the villa sits closer to village-scale coastal living than to large-scale resort infrastructure, while both Alicante and Valencia airports remain accessible at approximately 75 km and 103 km respectively.
Beaches are the closest amenity: Platja de l'Ampolla at 0.6 km straight-line, Platja de les Platgetes at 0.7 km and the Cala del Portitxol cove at 1.1 km. The marina of Club Náutico Moraira is 0.9 km away, with the Les Basetes marina further along the coast at 5.2 km. Golfers can reach Club de Golf Ifach at 2.2 km and Club de Golf Jávea at 6.2 km, with the Llebeig course at 13.6 km. Air travel is served by two airports: Alicante-Elche (ALC) at approximately 75 km straight-line and Valencia (VLC) at about 103 km. Both are practical options, which spreads flight availability across two hubs, a relevant consideration for international owners. Málaga airport, at roughly 465 km, is not a realistic option for regular use. A car remains useful for regional trips, to Teulada, Benissa, Calp or Jávea, although daily errands in Moraira itself are manageable on foot. All distances cited are straight-line; actual road distances and driving times will be longer.

Moraira records an average annual temperature of 18.3°C, with monthly averages ranging from about 11°C in winter to 26°C in summer. This is a mild Mediterranean climate: winters rarely produce frost at sea level, and summers are warm but moderated by sea breezes. The swimming season extends to roughly five months, during which sea temperatures hold at or above 20°C, typically from late May into October. The villa sits at approximately 17 metres above sea level on terrain with a 2.2% gradient towards the beach, so there is no notable slope between the house and the coast. Rainfall on the Costa Blanca north is concentrated in autumn and early spring; the remainder of the year is predominantly dry, which supports outdoor use of the terraces and pool for most of the year. For walkers and nature interest, several coastal viewpoints lie within a few kilometres: Cova del Morro del Bou at 2.6 km, Cova Toni el Senyalat at 3.1 km and the Mirador Moraig at 3.7 km, all straight-line distances. These form part of the cliff and cove landscape that characterises the coastline between Moraira and Jávea.

The closest beach, Platja de l'Ampolla, is Moraira's principal sandy beach, 0.6 km away as the crow flies. Platja de les Platgetes follows at 0.7 km, combining sand and rock, and the Cala del Portitxol cove at 1.1 km offers quieter swimming and snorkelling. The concentration of three bathing options within just over a kilometre gives residents genuine choice between busier family beaches and sheltered coves. Sailing and water sports centre on Club Náutico Moraira at 0.9 km, with a second marina, Les Basetes, at 5.2 km offering windsurf and kayak facilities typical of the area. Golf is well represented: Club de Golf Ifach, a nine-hole course at 2.2 km, Club de Golf Jávea at 6.2 km and Llebeig at 13.6 km provide options at increasing distance. Land-based recreation includes the municipal sports centre in Teulada at 4.4 km, and two pools at 0.5 km and 2.7 km. The coastal viewpoints east of town, at 2.6 to 3.7 km, double as walking destinations along the clifftop paths, extending the recreational range beyond the beaches themselves.
