Project Analysis

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

Location

The plot is located inland in the province of Alicante, within an urban setting that provides for daily needs. Proximity to local amenities within walking distance, such as a supermarket (447 m) and an EV charging station (488 m), increases usability. Despite its rural location, connectivity to larger cities like Alicante (46 km) and Elche (44 km) is good, ensuring a balance between peace and urban access.

Layout

This land plot primarily targets buyers with agricultural or development ambitions. Its large size and fertile soil make it suitable for large-scale farming, including an existing almond orchard. For those looking to build a new home, the plot offers ample space and potential. The presence of essential utilities like water and electricity nearby supports both agricultural and residential development plans.

Project Status

The offered plot is ready for development. Although no specific building plans are currently defined, the land is buildable. The existing infrastructure, such as the water connection and the proximity of electricity, provides a solid foundation for new construction projects. Potential buyers can collaborate with local architects and construction companies to realize their development visions.

Points of Attention

This property is a parcel of land without existing buildings. Specific building regulations and zoning plans need further investigation by the buyer. The distance to the coast (approx. 45 km) and Alicante Airport (approx. 47 km) is considerable, making it less suitable for those seeking immediate beach or flight access. There are no reported specific nature or environmental restrictions in the data.

Regional Comparison

Compared to apartments in Torrevieja (from €160,000 - €169,000) or Urbanización El Raso (from €227,000), this land plot in Villena occupies a completely different market segment. The focus here is not on ready-made homes but on land with development potential. Projects like APARTMENTS PALANGRE BEACH and EDIFICIO SUN & CENTER offer urban apartments with access to coastal facilities, a stark contrast to Villena's rural, agricultural character. OASIS LAGUNA 2 - PHASE II, while potentially in a more residential setting, remains focused on housing. The price of €1,400,000 for this large estate must be viewed in the context of its size and agricultural potential, making it incomparable to the prices of typical coastal apartment complexes. The inland location of Alicante, away from direct tourist centers, offers a different value proposition, focused on agriculture, privacy, and development opportunities rather than beach access and resort amenities.
