Property for sale in Altea, Costa Blanca
Altea is the town buyers fall for on the first visit: a whitewashed old town on a hill, a promenade of restaurants, and above it Altea Hills — a gated estate of sea-view villas that has quietly become one of the strongest addresses on the Costa Blanca. Building heights are restricted, so the skyline has barely changed in twenty years.
This page collects the villas and apartments for sale in Altea we are currently tracking, what buyers pay per square metre here in 2026, and what to check before you view. We are a buyer's agency on the Costa Blanca North: we search the whole Altea market — portals, local agency stock and off-market homes through co-brokerage partners — and we are paid from the seller's side, so nothing here is pushed at you.

Where to buy in Altea
In Altea the address matters more than the finish: two villas of the same size can differ by a third in price depending on which side of town they sit. These are the areas buyers ask us about most.
Altea Hills
Gated sea-view estate, security and private roads, highest prices in town
Altea la Vella
Inland valley villas, larger plots, quieter and better value
Casco Antiguo
Whitewashed old town, character houses, almost no parking
Sierra de Altea
Panoramic plots above the bay, long access roads
What to check before buying in Altea
- —Altea Hills plots slope steeply — check access, lift or stair count, and how much of the plot is actually usable.
- —Old-town properties are charming but often have no parking; confirm where you would leave a car before you commit.
- —Community fees on the Hills estates are higher than average and cover security and road maintenance.
Every property we present is checked on site before a viewing is arranged. See Property Check for what that includes, or read the current Costa Blanca market pulse.

Buying property in Altea — common questions
How much does a villa in Altea cost?
Asking prices in Altea average €3,600 per m² in 2026. Across the 7 Altea properties currently on our radar, family villas typically start around €550,000 and sea-view or front-line homes run well past €2 million. We confirm the seller's real price on every listing before we present it.
Can foreigners buy property in Altea?
Yes. There is no restriction on non-residents, including UK and non-EU buyers, buying property in Altea or anywhere on the Costa Blanca. You need a Spanish NIE number, a Spanish bank account and an independent lawyer — we introduce independent lawyers and never use the seller's.
What are the buying costs on top of the price in Altea?
Budget roughly 10–13% on top of the purchase price in the Valencian Community: transfer tax (ITP) of 9%, or 11% above €1,000,000, on resale homes, or 10% VAT plus 1.4% stamp duty on new builds, plus notary, land registry and legal fees. Our buying costs calculator works out the exact figure for any price.
Do you only sell your own listings in Altea?
No. Brisalta Estates is a buyer's agency: we search the whole Altea market — public portals, local agency stock and off-market homes through co-brokerage partners — and we are paid from the seller's side commission, so our advice does not depend on which property you choose.
