Description
This four-bedroom new-build villa occupies a 1,000 m2 private plot in Altea Hills and delivers 405 m2 of built space across two floors plus a solarium level. Four full bathrooms serve the four bedrooms, and the ground floor opens through full-height glazing to a covered terrace and private pool. The plot accommodates a landscaped garden, private parking and a solarium terrace with open hillside views. Energy rating is G, as is standard for new-build projects of this scale at point of marketing.Altea Hills is a gated hillside urbanisation in Altea, Alicante province, positioned above the old town and the Albir coastline. The urbanisation sits within easy reach of the N-332 and the AP-7 motorway junction for Altea, giving direct road access to the old town's narrow streets and the Playa del Albir. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 35 minutes by car. The centre of Altea, with its weekly market on Tuesdays and the waterfront promenade on Calle la Mar, is accessible within a short drive from Altea Hills.Community fees for this villa are currently zero. IBI figures are not yet assigned, as is typical for a new-build property without a catastral reference at time of listing. Buyers in Altea Hills should budget for the gated urbanisation's general maintenance contribution once established. The villa sits within a tourist-active coastal zone, and short-term rental licences for new-build properties in the Valencian Community are subject to regional licensing rules that are worth verifying before purchase.The 1,000 m2 plot is laid out with a private swimming pool, surrounding terrace, planted garden borders and a private parking area within the boundary. The solarium level provides an additional outdoor space above the main roofline. The covered ground-floor terrace links directly to the pool terrace, extending the usable outdoor area considerably across all levels of the villa.

Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this villa?
As a new build in the Valencian Community, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.4% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply to new-build purchases. Tax is charged on the higher of the price paid and the property's official reference value, so treat any figure based on the asking price as a minimum. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and these are worth checking before you finalise your budget. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and legal fees (typically 1% of the purchase price plus VAT).
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Spanish banks generally lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation (whichever is lower), meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile. A mortgage broker with experience in the Valencian Community market can help compare options.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this villa are currently zero. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assigned, as the catastral reference is pending for this new-build property. The rubbish collection charge (basura) will be confirmed by the local authority once the property is registered. Buyers should also account for utilities and home insurance when planning annual costs.
How do I arrange a viewing?
Contact the OceanHome team to book an in-person visit to the Altea Hills site. If you are outside Spain, we can arrange a live video viewing so you can inspect the plot, plans and show materials remotely before committing to travel. We recommend combining any visit with a review of the developer's specifications and the urbanisation's community rules.
Does this villa have rental potential?
Altea Hills is within a coastal tourist zone that attracts demand for short-term villa rentals. However, rental licences for new-build properties in the Valencian Community are subject to regional licensing requirements, and availability of licences in any given urbanisation can vary. We recommend verifying the licensing position for this specific plot with a local lawyer before purchasing with rental income in mind.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property purchase in Spain and can be obtained via a Spanish consulate or locally with a lawyer's assistance. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is typically signed alongside a small holding deposit to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) where a further deposit — usually 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance and taxes are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed. Using an independent solicitor throughout is strongly advisable.
