About this property
In the hills above Orihuela, three kilometres back from the beach but high enough to own the view, sits this contemporary villa. The Costa Blanca unfolds south and east from the terrace; on clear days the horizon stretches to Formentera. This is the kind of vantage point that changes how you think about a morning coffee. The villa spreads across 138 m² of living space on a 410 m² plot, arranged across three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a ground floor anchored by a generous open-plan kitchen and living area. The architecture favours light and sightlines: floor-to-ceiling sliding glass on the principal elevations, large-format porcelain tiling in warm neutral tones, contemporary matte cabinetry, and integrated air-conditioning pre-installation throughout. The bathrooms are appointed with underfloor heating and quality sanitary ware. Beyond the glass, the garden holds room for a private pool, and the plot's gentle slope offers natural drainage and terracing for an outdoor entertaining space that catches the evening light. Orihuela itself sits inland but remains close to everything. The old quarter, with its cathedral and baroque palaces, gives the town a sense of history that many of the coastal resorts lack entirely. The modern city centre has good independent shops and restaurants; the supermarkets and services are straightforward. Punta Prima and the beaches around Playa Flamenca are a ten-minute drive, and the Vega Baja's salt flats and natural parks are on the doorstep. Alicante Airport is roughly forty-five minutes north; Murcia's Corvera is a similar distance south. This one appeals to someone trading the seafront bustle for a hillside perch with better proportions and a genuine view. The build quality is solid, the plot large enough for real privacy and future-proofing, and the three-bedroom configuration works equally well as a family base or a rental investment with strong seasonal demand across the Spanish summer.
