This completed detached villa is situated in Benimar, a small residential area within the Alicante province, recorded with 2,421 inhabitants and an urban setting with everyday amenities within walking distance. The property offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms across approximately 136 m² of living space on a 400 m² plot, with a guide price of €390,000. Built in 1970 (indicative), the dwelling includes a private pool, private garden, solarium and off-road parking. The nearest beach, Platja de La Roqueta, lies roughly 541 metres away, and a supermarket is located about 133 metres from the property.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Benimar is positioned in an urbanised coastal environment where the beach, supermarket, pharmacy and public transport stops are all within short walking distance. Alicante city lies approximately 37 km away, with Elche at 21 km. The area sits at roughly 22 metres above sea level on flat terrain, which means level access to most daily amenities on foot or by bicycle.
The property functions as a four-bedroom, three-bathroom family home with two levels of accommodation, a private pool and a solarium. The former-garage bedroom with external access and en-suite shower room allows use as a guest room, workspace or independent accommodation. Air conditioning, ceiling fans, a fireplace and a utility room support year-round occupation.
This is not a new-build development. The villa was completed in 1970 (indicative) and is delivered in finished condition, meaning no construction phase, off-plan payments or delivery risk applies. Interior photography shows a renovated kitchen and bathrooms. Buyers should treat the 1970 completion date as a factor to verify through survey regarding structure, wiring and insulation.
The property does not offer enclosed or garage parking (open off-road parking only), has no known energy performance label recorded in the dataset, and is not part of a development with communal facilities such as a gym or concierge. The plot of 400 m² is modest for a detached villa, and the 1970 build year means no new-build warranties apply.

This property matches several recognisable buyer situations. First, households relocating permanently who need four bedrooms and three bathrooms, walking access to a school (one within the 2 km radius) and a supermarket at 133 metres, and who want to avoid car dependency for daily errands. Second, buyers combining residence with hospitality: the third bedroom has its own external entrance and en-suite shower room, which permits use by guests, extended family or as a rental unit subject to local licensing rules. Third, retirees seeking a single-settlement coastal home where the beach (541 m), pharmacy (226 m) and medical access via public transport are within reach, and where the flat terrain at 22 metres elevation avoids steep walks. Fourth, second-home buyers who want a finished, immediately usable property with a private pool and solarium rather than an off-plan purchase with delivery timelines. The property is less aligned with buyers seeking a modern energy-efficient new build, an enclosed garage, a large plot, or a rural setting, since the environment is urban and the construction dates from 1970.
Photographic analysis indicates a modern white fitted kitchen with appliances, two renovated bathrooms including a steam shower unit, and a bedroom with a tufted headboard and natural light, alongside an outdoor patio with grill and dining area. The property also includes a covered entrance terrace, an open feature fireplace in the lounge, built-in wardrobes in the bedrooms, a utility room adjoining the kitchen, a storeroom, air conditioning and ceiling fans throughout. These features point to a property that has been maintained and partially modernised, most visibly in the kitchen and bathrooms. However, the 1970 construction date means the underlying structure, electrical installation, plumbing and insulation predate current technical building codes. Buyers are advised to commission an independent technical survey (survey or building inspection) to verify the condition of the roof, damp proofing, electrical capacity and pool installation. No energy performance certificate value is recorded in the dataset; the presence of air conditioning and ceiling fans in every room indicates active climate control rather than passive energy design. The two-storey layout with solarium means exterior elements such as terrace waterproofing and solarium finishes should also be inspected, as these are common maintenance points on properties of this age on the Spanish coast.
The asking price is €390,000 for a completed, four-bedroom detached villa of 136 m² on a 400 m² plot with private pool. Within the wider regional dataset, comparable listings include apartments in Torrevieja from €160,000 and €169,000, and apartments in Urbanización El Raso from €227,000. Those comparables are smaller apartment products; on a per-square-metre basis this villa is priced in line with detached stock that includes land and private pool facilities. As this is a resale property, price negotiation, notary costs and transfer tax apply rather than new-build VAT structures.
Daily life here is organised around a walkable urban setting. The supermarket sits approximately 133 metres from the front door, a pharmacy 226 metres, and the nearest beach about 541 metres, which places the essentials of grocery shopping, healthcare access and coastal recreation within a five-to-ten-minute walk. Within a two-kilometre radius, the dataset records 35 restaurants, 17 cafés, 10 banks, 7 pharmacies and a school, indicating a fully functioning year-round neighbourhood rather than a seasonal resort zone. The villa itself is arranged over two levels. The ground floor contains a lounge/dining room with an open fireplace, a separate fitted kitchen with utility room, two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a third bedroom converted from the garage with its own external entrance and en-suite shower room, and a family shower room. The first floor holds the fourth bedroom with en-suite facilities and access to a private terrace and solarium with mountain views. Outside, a tiled low-maintenance garden surrounds the private pool. This layout supports several practical living patterns: a household can use the third bedroom as a self-contained guest or work space, evening use of the solarium is feasible given the recorded sun hours, and daily errands require no car. Public transport is available via 9 lines and 5 stops in the area, and an EV charging point is located 3.9 km away, with a Tesla Supercharger at 1.8 km. The hospital at 7.4 km is the main amenity requiring motorised transport.
Benimar records 2,421 inhabitants and sits in an urban environment with a dense amenity base: within two kilometres there are 35 restaurants, 17 cafés, 10 bank branches, 7 pharmacies, 2 dentists and 1 school. This density is characteristic of a consolidated residential neighbourhood rather than a holiday urbanisation, meaning services remain open outside the summer season. Mobility is largely car-free for daily needs, the supermarket at 133 metres and pharmacy at 226 metres are shorter walks than most car journeys would take once parking is considered. Public transport covers the area with 9 lines and 5 stops, connecting towards Alicante city 37 km away and Elche at 21 km. For health, a hospital is 7.4 km from the property. Sports facilities are close at hand: Artes Marciales Alicante at 0.5 km, Polideportivo de San Blas at 0.7 km and a high-performance sports centre at 0.9 km. The climate supports outdoor living year-round, with a recorded 3,843 sun hours annually, an average temperature of 18.8°C and a five-month swimming season with water temperatures of at least 20°C, which matches the private pool and solarium orientation of the property.
The map shows the property's position relative to the coastline, with Platja de La Roqueta roughly 541 metres away, and the concentration of amenities, supermarket, pharmacy, transport stops, within a short walking radius. Alicante city, Elche and the airport define the wider regional frame.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Benimar is positioned on the coastal strip south of Alicante city, closer to Elche (21 km) than to Alicante itself (37 km), and well inside the orbit of Alicante-Elche Airport at 27 km straight-line. The area is considerably smaller than the regional cities, 2,421 inhabitants versus Elche's 234,765 and Alicante's 339,322, which places it in the category of a residential satellite neighbourhood with urban services rather than an independent town. Murcia, at 36 km, marks the southern edge of the practical travel radius.
Beaches: Platja de La Roqueta at 541 m, Platja Centre at 677 m and Platja de Babilònia at 1.2 km are all within walking distance; Platja del Cocó (2.1 km) and Cala de la Sangueta (2.4 km) extend the coastal options. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 27 km in a straight line, roughly a 30-minute drive depending on route and traffic. Golf courses require a car: Club de Golf El Plantío at 6.1 km is the nearest, with Bonalba at 11.9 km, La Finca at 12 km and Villamartín at 18 km. Marina Alicante lies 1.0 km away for berths and nautical services. Alicante city (339,322 inhabitants) at 37 km and Elche (234,765 inhabitants) at 21 km provide regional shopping, hospitals and cultural amenities.

The location sits at 22 metres above sea level on essentially flat terrain, so there are no significant slopes between the property and the beach or town amenities, a practical point for older residents or cycling. Climate data records an annual average temperature of 18.8°C with a monthly range of 12–26°C, meaning winters are mild enough for year-round occupation of a property with air conditioning and a fireplace. Historical sun hours total 3,843 per year, among the higher figures for coastal Spain, which is directly relevant to the solarium and pool use. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of at least 20°C, lasts five months. No significant natural park adjoins the immediate urban area; the immediate environment is built-up with beaches forming the main natural feature.

Five beaches lie within 2.5 km: Platja de La Roqueta (541 m), Platja Centre (677 m), Platja de Babilònia (1.2 km), Platja del Cocó (2.1 km) and Platja de Sant Gabriel (2.5 km), giving residents a choice of urban and quieter stretches of coast. The dataset does not record Blue Flag status for these individual beaches. Marina Alicante at 1.0 km offers nautical access and waterfront dining. Golfers have four courses within 20 km, with El Plantío the closest at 6.1 km. Sports facilities within one kilometre include martial arts, a municipal sports centre and a high-performance training centre, while the private pool on the property itself provides daily swimming without travel.

Within the wider Costa Blanca dataset, the closest comparable listings are apartment-based products: Apartments Palangre Beach in Torrevieja from €160,000, Edificio Sun & Center in Torrevieja from €169,000, and Oasis Laguna 2 Fase II in Urbanización El Raso from €227,000. Those developments offer new or recent construction, communal facilities and lower entry prices, but they deliver apartment living without private land. This Benimar villa occupies a different segment: a detached resale product with 400 m² of private plot, a private pool, a solarium and four bedrooms. The trade-off is explicit, the buyer exchanges new-build energy performance, community facilities and warranties for space, privacy and land at a comparable total outlay to a mid-range new apartment plus premium. Locationally, Benimar differs from Torrevieja and El Raso in character. Those areas are more strongly oriented towards holiday and second-home demand, whereas Benimar's amenity profile, 35 restaurants, a school, 7 pharmacies and 9 public transport lines within a 2 km radius, indicates a consolidated year-round neighbourhood. Proximity to Alicante city (37 km), Elche (21 km) and the airport (27 km) also places it nearer to a major metropolitan labour market than the southern Costa Blanca comparables. Golf access is weaker than in golf-centric urbanisations: the nearest course is 6.1 km away versus developments that adjoin courses directly. For buyers weighing a resale detached villa against a new-build apartment, the deciding factors are typically maintenance appetite for a 1970 structure versus the desire for modern efficiency, and the value placed on private outdoor space versus communal amenities.
