Green hills, rocky shores, small fishing harbors, and towns with historical architecture — Asturias attracts those who are fond of life in northern Spain. Here you can look for an apartment near the beach, a city house, or countryside housing surrounded by nature.

But what budget is required for a purchase? Let’s consider the average listing prices in 12 municipalities of Asturias and explain how to use these indicators when choosing real estate.

How much does a square meter cost in Asturias

According to idealista/data for September 2026, the average listing price for real estate in Asturias is 1,892 €/m². This figure covers the entire region, including the coast and inland areas. 

This is a guideline for an initial comparison. The cost of a specific apartment or house depends on location, condition, size, window views, and building features.

Where to look for real estate in Asturias

Gijón and Oviedo: housing for city life

If you plan to move permanently, start comparing with Gijón and Oviedo. When choosing an apartment, consider daily routes: the commute to work, schools, shops, and medical facilities.

It’s better to compare properties with similar characteristics. A renovated apartment with an elevator and parking and housing in an old building without an elevator can differ significantly in price even on neighboring streets.

Llanes, Ribadesella, and Villaviciosa: searching near the coast

To buy a house or apartment closer to the water, consider these municipalities. However, the name of a coastal municipality in the listing does not yet mean the beach is within walking distance.

Check the exact address, access to the coast, and travel time. A water view, terrace, and convenient location can significantly affect the price.

Cudillero, Luarca — Valdés, and Colunga: small settlements

These locations can be included in your search if you are interested in small towns and countryside housing.

When buying a house, it’s especially useful to evaluate not only photos but also the access road, parking, roof condition, heating, and availability of necessary services. A beautiful view should be considered together with everyday convenience.

Avilés, Castrillón, and Gozón: comparing different housing formats

In these municipalities, it makes sense to compare city apartments, houses, and properties closer to the coast.

Set specific criteria: maximum distance to the sea, number of bedrooms, presence of elevator, parking, or plot. This way, your selection will be more useful than searching only by the average price per square meter.

Cangas de Onís: real estate inland

If proximity to the beach is not mandatory, add the inland areas of Asturias to your search.

For a country house, plan in advance how often you will use it, who can look after it during your absence, and what budget will be needed for maintenance.

Why the average price is not equal to the cost of a specific property

The average price per municipality combines different types of real estate and locations. One sample may include apartments, houses with plots, renovated properties, and housing requiring investment.

Before buying, compare:

• Location: exact address, surroundings, and transport accessibility.
• Condition: need for repairs, condition of the roof, facade, and utilities.
• Comfort: heating, ventilation, natural lighting, and insulation.
• Features: elevator, parking, terrace, plot, and usable area.
• Expenses: building maintenance, utilities, and home servicing.

The prices in the overview are the amounts sellers offer properties for. The final transaction cost may differ.

How to choose real estate in Asturias within your budget

Start with the purchase goal: permanent residence, vacation, or seasonal visits. Then determine must-have conditions and overall budget, including expenses for paperwork, possible repairs, and furnishing.

Choose several municipalities and compare specific properties using a unified list of criteria. This will help you understand where your budget allows you to get a suitable combination of location, size, and condition of housing.
