Spain’s stunning beaches and picturesque flats are the stuff of many people’s dreams, and now it seems they are more attainable than ever. A recent report has shown that a beautiful two-bedroom flat with breathtaking beach views in Spain can cost the same price as a three-bedroom house in Ireland. As more and more people opt for a change of scenery and warmer weather, this revelation could be the catalyst that sees many making the move to Spain. In this article, we delve deeper into this surprising report and explore just what makes Spanish flats so alluring.
As the cost-of-living crisis worsens and house prices skyrocket in Ireland, many people may dream of leaving the country and relocating to a sunnier destination. The idea may seem far-fetched, but according to Galway Beo, an apartment located right next to a world-famous Spanish beach may be just as affordable as a three-bed house in Ireland.
The price of €300,000 can go a long way in Spain, leading to significantly higher quality accommodations than what is possible in Ireland. Alicante, in particular, has long been a popular destination for Irish tourists and property buyers alike. A luxury two-bed apartment overlooking Almadraba Beach, replete with two bathrooms, an open-plan kitchen area, and a living/dining room, is currently available in Alicante. In addition, each flat comes with an underground parking spot and a storage room.
The newly built Bella Beach apartments, located in Alicante, include air conditioning and heating, a fitted kitchen with an oven and microwave, a vitro-ceramic hob, and an extractor fan. Additionally, these properties overlook the Almadraba beach, providing a stunning view.
The two-bed apartment with these amenities could be purchased with a budget of €290,000. For those interested, the Bella Beach apartment complex is expected to be completed by June 2024. More information can be found here.
For those who would like to relocate to an area closer to home, a three-bed detached house in Maam’s Cross, Galway, is currently available for €295,000. This two-story home boasts more than two acres of land and is located in an ideal location in Connemara. The property has undergone significant renovations in recent years, which include an upgrade of all electrical and plumbing systems, new windows throughout the home, and a re-roofing.
The house includes a modern kitchen outfitted with fitted units and a gas hob, and the conservatory room boasts stunning views of the surrounding countryside and hills. The full details of the property can be seen on this website.
In conclusion, for those who are considering purchasing a property either abroad or closer to home, the price point of €300,000 can go much farther in a sunny destination such as Alicante, Spain, than in Ireland. The Bella Beach complex offers apartments with luxury amenities overlooking Almadraba beach and includes an underground parking spot and a storage room. Alternatively, those who prefer to remain closer to their current residence, a three-bed detached house in Maam’s Cross, Galway, is available for purchase, and has undergone significant renovations in recent years.
