The north of the Costa Blanca – the ‘white coast’ due to its sandy beaches – stretches from the city of Alicante up to Denia.

Given the opportunity, most of us would like to buy a luxury villa with fabulous views surround sound, pool, extensive private gardens and other luxuries but realistically we don’t have the wherewithal to do so. The Costa del Sol in particular is an area of Spain which offers both extremely pricey property and extremely affordable property too.
