About this property
Orihuela sits in the Vega Baja, inland from the Costa Blanca's crowded string, where the Spanish-speaking residents still outnumber the expats and the landscape is genuinely agricultural. This new-build villa occupies 873 m² of that ground, a substantial plot in a mature residential area where the light comes clean and the noise is measured in birdsong. The house spans two levels and 260 m² of built space. The main floor is given over to the master suite — bedroom, dressing room, and full en-suite bathroom — plus a guest toilet and a generously proportioned kitchen that flows into the living and dining zones without walls to interrupt the sight lines. The first floor holds two further bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and a secondary living area. The finish throughout is contemporary and considered: large-format porcelain tiling, matte cabinetry, pre-installation for ducted air-conditioning and home automation, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, and a thermal envelope built to keep the interior cool during the long, hot summers. The ground floor opens to the garden via full-width sliding glass. The plot itself is the real commodity here. 873 m² allows for a proper garden, mature plantings, a private pool with room for loungers and an outdoor dining terrace, and still breathing space around the perimeter. The orientation is such that the property captures light without the worst of the afternoon glare. Orihuela sits twenty minutes by car from the beaches at Punta Prima and La Zenia, and thirty-five minutes from Alicante Airport. The old town centre has genuine character — narrow streets, a Gothic cathedral, tapas bars that cater to locals — and the Saturday market runs with the rhythms of real commerce. It suits a buyer looking for scale and privacy at a distance from the coastal strip, and willing to trade the marina walk for genuine land and agricultural quiet.
