This detached villa stands in Moraira, a small upmarket coastal town in the Marina Alta comarca, roughly 80 km north of Alicante and 100 km south of Valencia. The property offers five bedrooms, four bathrooms and 288 m² of living space on an 846 m² plot. The house was completed in 1970 and is key-ready. The nearest beach, Platja de l'Ampolla, lies about 0.6 km away as the crow flies, and the centre of Moraira with its restaurants, marina and amenities is within easy reach. The asking price is fixed at €825,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in a residential area of Moraira, part of the Teulada municipality. Platja de l'Ampolla beach lies 0.6 km away in a straight line, with Platja de les Platgetes at 0.7 km and Cala del Portitxol at 1.1 km. Club Náutico Moraira marina is 0.9 km away. The gradient to the beach is approximately 2.2%, meaning the terrain is essentially flat and walkable.
With five bedrooms and four bathrooms across 288 m², the villa accommodates a large family or two households. The layout consists of two independent apartments, each with a separate entrance, which allows shared ownership, guest use or rental of one unit. The 846 m² plot provides outdoor space around the house, and the pool and terraces extend the living area into the open air for most of the year.
This is an existing home, built in 1970, offered key-ready at a fixed asking price of €825,000. Buyers should expect construction standards of its original era, potentially modified over the decades. A technical survey is the standard instrument for establishing the actual condition of the structure, installation and finishes before purchase.
The property is a 1970 villa, not a new-build development, so it does not offer modern energy performance certificates for new construction, developer warranties or contemporary floor plans by default. There is no lift, no gated resort infrastructure and no on-site wellness facilities described in the data. Renovation or modernisation costs may need to be budgeted on top of the purchase price.

This property suits several recognisable situations. A multi-generational family can use the two independent apartments to live together while retaining privacy and separate entrances. Owners of a second home can occupy one unit and let the other, or reserve it for visiting children and friends. Buyers seeking a permanent residence within walking distance of the sea will find the flat 0.6 km route to Platja de l'Ampolla and the concentration of restaurants, pharmacies and banks within 2 km a practical base for year-round living. The five bedrooms and four bathrooms also accommodate a household that regularly hosts guests. The property is less obvious for buyers who want new construction, resort-style communal facilities or a lock-and-leave apartment with low maintenance. The 846 m² plot and private pool require ongoing upkeep, and a 1970 building requires a buyer comfortable with periodic maintenance or improvement work. Buyers focused primarily on rental yield may note that Moraira is a quieter, higher-priced market than the high-volume tourist towns further south; the dual-apartment layout does, however, offer flexibility for partial letting, subject to local regulations.
The villa dates from 1970, which places it in the era of traditional Spanish coastal construction: typically load-bearing masonry walls, tiled floors, plastered facades and timber joinery. The listing describes it as a traditional villa, and the photographs show a fireplace in the living room, generous windows in the bedrooms and an outdoor dining terrace with sea views. No specific data is available on the condition of the roof, the electrical and plumbing installations, the insulation or the glazing. For a property of this age, these elements determine both living comfort and future costs, so a technical inspection is a standard step before purchase. The dual-apartment layout means two kitchens and two sets of sanitary installations, which doubles the number of systems to assess and maintain. The pool and terraces are visible in the aerial photographs; their condition, filtration equipment and safety provisions should also be verified on site. Positive elements inherent to the era and type include generous plot depth, substantial room heights and a solid structural mass that suits the Mediterranean climate. Prospective buyers should treat the finishing level as established rather than contemporary: modernisation of kitchens, bathrooms or installations may be desirable, and obtaining quotations before purchase gives a realistic picture of the total investment.
The villa is offered as an existing home with a fixed asking price of €825,000. At 288 m² of living space, this corresponds to roughly €2,865 per square metre, on a plot of 846 m². The price reflects an established property in a mature coastal town rather than an off-plan purchase. Availability is immediate in principle, as the house is key-ready; the actual transfer date depends on the negotiation and notary process. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs, including transfer tax, notary and registry fees, and possibly renovation work given the 1970 construction date.
Daily life at this address revolves around the short, flat walk to the coast. Platja de l'Ampolla, the main sandy beach of Moraira, is about 0.6 km away as the crow flies, with the smaller Platja de les Platgetes and the rocky Cala del Portitxol just beyond. The bay near Cala de l'Andragó, roughly 400 metres from the villa according to the listing, has a concentration of restaurants and bars where much of the town's social life takes place. Within a 2 km radius, the data counts around 50 restaurants, several cafés, three pharmacies and four banks, which covers most daily needs without leaving town. The house itself is organised as two self-contained apartments with separate entrances. In practice this means one household can occupy the main residence while the second unit serves visiting family, guests, or tenants. The 846 m² plot holds a pool, terraces with sea views and space for outdoor dining, which shifts a substantial part of daily life outdoors during the warm months. With an average annual temperature of 18.3°C and a swimming season of roughly five months with water at or above 20°C, the pool and terrace function as genuine living space for much of the year. The location is described as quiet and private, and the town of Moraira remains small in scale, so the rhythm of the area is calm rather than urban.
Moraira forms part of the municipality of Teulada and has the character of a small upmarket coastal town rather than a resort strip. The environment around the villa is residential and, according to the listing, quiet and private. The coast offers variety within short distances: sandy family beaches at Platja de l'Ampolla and Platja de les Platgetes, and swimming and snorkelling at coves such as Cala del Portitxol. The marina at Club Náutico Moraira, 0.9 km away, anchors the seafront with its sailing and dining scene. Inland, the terrain rises towards viewpoints such as the Cova del Morro del Bou at 2.6 km and Mirador Moraig at 3.7 km, which mark the transition to the rocky Cap d'Or headland. Daily shopping and services cluster in the town centre, and the data lists eleven public transport stops, which is workable for a town of this size, though a car remains the practical choice for larger shopping trips, excursions and airport transfers. Train stations at Teulada (4.9 km straight line) and Benissa (5.2 km) connect the area to the regional rail network along the coast.
The map shows the villa in relation to Moraira's coastline. Platja de l'Ampolla is 0.6 km away as the crow flies on flat terrain, the marina at 0.9 km, and the golf course of Ifach at 2.2 km. All distances shown are straight-line; actual road distances are somewhat longer.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Within the region, Moraira occupies a distinct position on the northern Costa Blanca, in the Marina Alta comarca between the larger centres of Alicante (66 km straight line) and Valencia (98 km). The town is smaller, quieter and more residential in character than the high-density tourist towns to the south such as Torrevieja or Benidorm. Neighbouring towns like Jávea, Calp and Benissa share a similar low-rise, upmarket coastal profile. For buyers comparing regions, this area trades volume and nightlife for calm, coastal nature and a more established international community.
The villa's position combines walkable proximity to the sea with reasonable regional access. Platja de l'Ampolla lies 0.6 km away in a straight line on an almost flat route, so the beach functions as an extension of daily life. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 75 km away as the crow flies and Valencia Airport roughly 103 km, giving a choice of two international gateways with direct flights across Europe; driving times are longer than the straight-line figures suggest. Larger cities are within reach for work, culture or shopping: Alicante at 66 km straight line and Valencia at 98 km. Golfers can reach Club de Golf Ifach at 2.2 km and Club de Golf Jávea at 6.2 km, while the municipal sports centre of Teulada lies 4.4 km away. Eleven public transport stops serve the town, but the practical conclusion is that a car simplifies life here considerably, particularly outside the summer season.

The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.3°C, with monthly averages ranging from 11°C in winter to 26°C in summer, a classic Mediterranean profile with mild winters and warm but rarely extreme summers. The swimming season lasts about five months, during which sea water stays at or above 20°C, roughly from late May into October. The villa stands at 17 metres above sea level with a gradient of about 2.2% towards the beach, so the terrain is flat and no stair climbs or steep streets separate the house from the coast. The immediate surroundings combine the sandy bay with the rocky Cap d'Or natural headland, whose caves and viewpoints lie within 3.7 km. This mix of beach and protected natural coastline gives the area a greener and more rugged backdrop than the fully urbanised sections of the Costa Blanca further south.

Moraira's beach offering is compact but varied. Platja de l'Ampolla, 0.6 km from the villa, is the town's main sandy beach with full services in season. Platja de les Platgetes at 0.7 km combines sand with rocky sections, and Cala del Portitxol at 1.1 km is a sheltered cove suited to swimming and snorkelling. Along the bay near Cala de l'Andragó, within walking distance according to the listing, a series of restaurants and bars provides the evening scene. For sport and leisure beyond the beach, Club de Golf Ifach lies 2.2 km away and Club de Golf Jávea 6.2 km, while the municipal sports centre in Teulada is 4.4 km from the house. Two swimming pools sit within 2.7 km, and the villa has its own private pool on the plot. The marinas at Club Náutico Moraira (0.9 km) and Les Basetes (5.2 km) cater to sailing and water sports.

Flat
In a regional comparison, this villa belongs to a different market segment from the new-build apartment projects that dominate the southern Costa Blanca. The comparable projects listed, Palangre Beach in Torrevieja (from €160,000), Edificio Sun & Center in Torrevieja (from €169,000) and Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso (from €227,000), are all apartment developments in high-density tourist towns south of Alicante. This property, by contrast, is a detached villa with a private plot in Moraira, one of the more subdued and higher-priced towns of the Marina Alta. The price difference reflects substance rather than marketing: 288 m² of living space, an 846 m² plot, a private pool and a location 0.6 km from the beach on flat terrain. The southern alternatives offer lower entry prices, communal pools and new-build energy standards, but in surroundings geared towards volume tourism and seasonal rental. Moraira's market is driven more by permanent residents and established international owners, which tends to produce steadier, less seasonal occupancy. Within its own area, the villa competes with detached properties in Moraira, Benissa and Jávea, where proximity to the sea on walkable, flat terrain is the scarcest feature. The dual-apartment layout adds a further distinction, as it supports multi-generational use or partial letting in a way that standard single-unit villas do not. Buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives should weigh two trade-offs: the 1970 construction date against modern building standards, and the quiet, mature setting of Moraira against the livelier rental economics of the south.
