A three-bedroom, two-bathroom semi-detached house of 95 m² in the city of Alicante, on Spain's Costa Blanca. The property was completed in 2002 and is offered key-ready, with air conditioning throughout, a fitted kitchen, a private terrace, a solarium with solar shower and access to a communal pool. The asking price is fixed at €229,000. The home stands in an urban setting with a supermarket 162 m away and a pharmacy 83 m away, with the nearest beach roughly 2 km away as the crow flies.
Within the immediate Alicante market, this semi-detached house is positioned at the accessible end of the price range. Edificio Espartero 48, a key-ready new-build project in the same city, starts from €234,900, while Lofts Aguilera starts from €289,900, both are apartment developments, so they offer a different product type rather than a direct like-for-like comparison. Further south along the coast, Oceanic Apartments in Rojales start from €475,000, reflecting the price premium of newer resort-style developments on larger plots. At roughly €2,411 per square metre, this house undercuts new-build pricing per square metre, which is the expected pattern for a 2002 resale property, offset by the absence of new-build warranties and the age of the installations. The trade-off for buyers is clear: new-build projects offer modern specifications, developer guarantees and typically private parking, while this property offers more bedrooms per euro, a consolidated urban location and immediate availability without construction risk. Locationally, central Alicante differs from quieter coastal municipalities such as Rojales: amenities are denser, 271 restaurants within two kilometres, public transport is extensive, and services run year-round, but the setting is more built-up and parking is on-street. The airport distance of roughly 9 km in a straight line is a competitive advantage over most Costa Blanca locations, which typically sit 30 to 70 km from Alicante-Elche. Median provincial income of €15,750 per year provides context for local purchasing power and for the rental segment, where urban Alicante maintains demand across all seasons rather than concentrating it in summer. Buyers comparing this property with new-build alternatives should weigh running costs, community fees and the practical value of a garage against the price differential of roughly €6,000 to €60,000 versus the comparable projects listed.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house sits in a built-up urban area of Alicante with daily amenities within walking distance: a supermarket 162 m away, a pharmacy 83 m away and an electric vehicle charging point 291 m away. The coast lies about 2 km away in a straight line, while the city centre and its marina are within roughly 1 km. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 9 km away by direct distance.
With three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 95 m² of living area, the layout suits a small household or a second residence by the sea. The fitted open-plan kitchen, air conditioning in every room, ceiling fans, mosquito screens and private terrace cover everyday comfort needs. A storage room and partial furnishing reduce the practical work involved in moving in.
This is not a new-build development. The house was completed in 2002 and is described as fully renovated and key-ready, requiring no further work. The asking price of €229,000 is a fixed amount for the existing property, not a starting price from a wider price list. Completion of the purchase follows the standard process for resale homes in Spain.
The property offers street parking only; there is no private garage or dedicated parking space. The 95 m² living area and three bedrooms limit space for larger households. There is no private pool, only communal pool access. The solarium is part of the property, but the plot is modest. These points follow directly from the recorded property data.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a primary residence in a functioning Spanish city will find the walkable amenities, nearby schools and year-round neighbourhood practical. A household looking for a second home near the coast benefits from the key-ready condition: no renovation works to manage from abroad, air conditioning already installed, and a terrace and solarium for seasonal use. The price point below €250,000 also suits buyers with a capped budget who still want three bedrooms and two bathrooms rather than a compact apartment. Investors considering rental use should note the urban location, the communal pool and the proximity to both the beach and the city centre as factors that shape demand. The house is less suitable for buyers who want a private pool, a private garage or a large plot, since none of these are present. It also does not suit households needing more than three bedrooms or substantially more than 95 m². For older buyers or those with reduced mobility, the presence of multiple levels typical of semi-detached houses deserves inspection on site. In short, the property is aimed at pragmatic buyers who value location, condition and running costs over space and private outdoor facilities.
The house was built in 2002 and has since been fully renovated, according to the seller's description, with fresh paint throughout and no outstanding works. The kitchen is fully fitted and equipped in an open-plan arrangement with the living area, as visible in the listing photographs showing a modern white kitchen with appliances. Climate control is comprehensive: hot and cold air conditioning in every room, ceiling fans as a supplementary option, and mosquito screens on the openings. Outdoor comfort features include a solarium with a solar shower, an electric retractable awning over the terrace and a covered patio area used for dining. A storage room provides space for luggage, equipment or household items. Additional installations include satellite television, WiFi readiness and an alarm system. The property is sold part-furnished, meaning some furniture is included while the remainder must be provided by the buyer. The condition is recorded as excellent. As with any resale purchase, the actual state of installations, wiring, plumbing, the age of the air-conditioning units and the awning mechanism, can be verified during a viewing or through an independent technical survey, which is standard practice in Spain. Orientation is north-east, which affects sun exposure on the terrace and solarium: morning and midday sun are more present than late-afternoon light. The communal pool and gardens are maintained collectively, so their condition and the level of community fees can be checked with the owners' community records.
The asking price is €229,000, fixed for this existing home. At 95 m² of living area this equates to roughly €2,411 per square metre. For context, key-ready new-build apartments in Alicante currently start from around €234,900 (Edificio Espartero 48) and €289,900 (Lofts Aguilera), placing this house at the accessible end of the local market. The property is sold part-furnished and freshly painted, which affects the initial budget for settling in. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard Spanish resale purchase process. Additional purchase costs, such as transfer tax and notary fees, apply on top of the asking price.
Daily life here revolves around an established urban neighbourhood of Alicante rather than a resort complex. Groceries are a two-minute walk away, the pharmacy is closer still, and the density of amenities within two kilometres, 271 restaurants, 141 cafés, 55 pharmacies, 64 banks and 11 schools, means that most errands can be done on foot. The house itself works as a straightforward family or holiday base: an open-plan fitted kitchen connects to a light living area with storage, and three bedrooms and two bathrooms spread across 95 m². The private terrace and covered patio serve as outdoor dining space, while the solarium with its solar shower and electric retractable awning extends use into the warmer months. Air conditioning throughout, supplemented by ceiling fans, handles the summer heat, and mosquito screens allow windows to stay open in the evening. The communal pool adds a swimming option without private maintenance obligations. The rhythm of the area is urban: shops, schools and sports facilities operate year-round, so the neighbourhood does not empty out outside the tourist season. The beach is about 2 km away in a straight line, a short drive, a cycle ride or a brisk walk over flat terrain, given the gentle 1.5 per cent gradient towards the coast. A car is useful for reaching the beach comfortably and for trips to golf courses further inland, but it is not essential for daily needs.
The surrounding area is dense, urban and well served. Within two kilometres there are 271 restaurants, 141 cafés, 55 pharmacies, 64 banks, 11 schools and a public park, alongside sports facilities including Artes Marciales Alicante at 0.6 km and the Polideportivo de San Blas at 0.8 km. Marina Alicante lies about 1 km away. Public transport is extensive, with 50 lines and 50 stops recorded in the city, so day-to-day mobility without a car is realistic even though a vehicle adds convenience for beach trips and inland excursions. The neighbourhood is a permanent residential area rather than a seasonal urbanisation, which means services continue at full level in winter. The elevation is low, around 35 m above sea level, and the route to the beach has a gradient of roughly 1.5 per cent, making the terrain effectively flat for walking and cycling. The city itself has 366,221 inhabitants as of 2025 and functions as the capital of its province, with the full administrative, health and educational infrastructure that entails. A hospital is located 1.5 km from the property. The overall character is that of a Mediterranean city neighbourhood: active, practical and lively, with the quiet of the coastline a short distance away.
The map shows the property within urban Alicante, with the coastline about 2 km to the east and the city centre and marina roughly 1 km to the south-west. Markers indicate the nearest beaches, golf courses, sports facilities and the airport. All distances shown are straight-line measurements.

Alicante is the capital of its province and the second-largest city in the Valencian Community, with a population of 366,221 in 2025. Within the wider region, it occupies the central point of the Costa Blanca, north of the Costa del Sol and roughly 400 km from Málaga. The property's position within the city, close to the centre, the marina and the beaches, with an airport 9 km away by direct distance, places it in the most connected segment of the local market. Compared with coastal developments further south, such as those in Rojales, the location trades resort-style quiet for urban density and year-round services.
Distances below are straight-line, as the crow flies; road distances may be longer. The nearest beaches are Platja del Cocó at 2.0 km, Cala de la Sangueta at 2.2 km and Platja de Sant Gabriel at 2.6 km. Alicante-Elche airport (ALC) is approximately 9 km away by direct distance, one of the shortest airport-to-city distances on the Spanish coast. Valencia airport lies about 127 km away and Málaga around 400 km. Golf is reachable but not adjacent: Club de Golf El Plantío at 6.2 km, Bonalba at 11.8 km and Alenda at 15 km. Everyday services cluster within a few hundred metres, pharmacy at 83 m, supermarket at 162 m and EV charging at 291 m. A hospital is 1.5 km away. Parking is on-street, which is normal for urban Alicante but means no guaranteed space. Public transport coverage with 50 lines reduces dependence on a car for city trips.

Alicante records an average annual temperature of 19.0 °C, with monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in winter to 26 °C in summer, a typical dry Mediterranean climate with mild winters and warm summers moderated by the sea. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20 °C or above, lasts about five months, running roughly from late spring into early autumn. The property sits at approximately 35 m above sea level on flat terrain, with a 1.5 per cent gradient towards the coast, so there are no significant slopes between the house and the beaches. Rainfall is low by European standards and concentrated outside the summer months. The north-east orientation of the house means the terrace and solarium receive morning and midday sun rather than strong late-afternoon heat, which, combined with the retractable awning, helps keep indoor temperatures manageable in July and August. For residents, this translates into outdoor living from April to October and a winter that rarely interrupts daily routines.

Alicante holds four Blue Flag beaches: Postiguet, Saladar-Urbanova, Sant Joan and Tabarca, the last on the island of the same name off the coast. The closest strands to the property are Platja del Cocó (2.0 km), Cala de la Sangueta (2.2 km) and Platja de Sant Gabriel (2.6 km), all in a straight line. The communal pool at the property adds a daily swimming option without maintenance obligations. Sports facilities are dense in the immediate area: martial arts at 0.6 km, the San Blas municipal sports centre at 0.8 km and a high-performance training centre at 0.9 km. Marina Alicante, about 1 km away, hosts sailing and water-sport activities. Golfers can reach Club de Golf El Plantío at 6.2 km, Bonalba at 11.8 km and Alenda at 15 km, all direct distances. Viewpoints such as the Mirador del castillo at 0.9 km indicate short walking routes with sea views. Taken together, the recreational offer combines city-based sport with a genuine beach season of roughly five months.
