This key-ready upstairs bungalow is located in La Torreta, a residential urbanisation within the Torrevieja area on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers two bedrooms, one bathroom and 49 m² of living space, complemented by a private solarium and a balcony accessible from the living room. The interior has been recently renovated and includes a fully fitted kitchen, air conditioning and underfloor heating in the bathroom. The asking price is a fixed €135,000, excluding agency commission. Platja del Cura beach lies approximately 1 km away as the crow flies, and the area is served by twelve public transport lines with fifty stops.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
La Torreta is a flat, low-rise urbanisation at roughly 20 metres above sea level, about 1 km inland from Platja del Cura beach as the crow flies. The surrounding area contains an unusually dense amenity offering: within 2 km there are approximately 170 restaurants, 27 pharmacies, 47 cafés and 24 bank branches. Sports centres lie within 1.4 km, making daily errands practical on foot or by bike.
The home is functionally arranged for two-person occupancy or a small family: two bedrooms, a renovated kitchen and a bright living room opening onto a balcony. The private solarium adds outdoor space for sunbathing and open-air dining. Communal facilities include a swimming pool and shared garden. Air conditioning, hot air conditioning and bathroom underfloor heating cover both warm and cool seasons.
This is an existing home, completed in 1998 and recently renovated, delivered key-ready. There is no construction phase or delivery risk; the buyer can take possession immediately after completion of the purchase process. The fixed asking price of €135,000 does not include the agency commission, which must be budgeted separately.
The property measures 49 m² of living space, which is compact and limits layout flexibility. There is one bathroom only. Parking is on-street rather than private or garaged. The sale excludes agency commission. The building dates from 1998, so construction standards reflect that period despite the interior renovation. No private garden is included; outdoor space consists of the balcony and solarium.
This property fits several recognisable buyer situations. The first is the budget-conscious second-home buyer: a fixed price of €135,000, a key-ready status and a location 1 km from the beach make it a straightforward holiday base without construction risk or waiting time. The second is the single occupant or couple seeking a compact permanent residence in a year-round urbanisation, supported by the high density of pharmacies, banks, cafés and schools within 2 km. The third is the small-scale investor looking for a rental unit in an area with strong seasonal demand and twelve public transport lines connecting the neighbourhood to wider Torrevieja. The home suits buyers who value outdoor space on a modest budget: the private solarium effectively doubles the usable area during warm months. It is less suited to buyers needing two bathrooms, generous interior square metres, or private parking, those requirements are not met here. Families with school-age children have three schools within 2 km, though the single bathroom and 49 m² footprint will feel tight for larger households. Buyers who want to move in without renovation work will find the recently renovated kitchen, bathroom and interior surfaces aligned with that expectation, while those planning interior remodelling should note the compact footprint limits options. Finally, the flat terrain and 1.7% gradient to the beach make the location workable for older buyers or anyone who prefers walking over driving, since Platja del Cura, sports facilities and daily amenities all sit within easy reach.
The interior has been recently renovated, which is reflected in the fitted kitchen with contemporary units and integrated appliances, and in the bathroom, which includes underfloor heating and space for a washing machine. The listing confirms the property is sold fully furnished, meaning the buyer acquires a turn-key home rather than an empty shell requiring immediate expenditure on basics. Climate control is addressed on two fronts: air conditioning units provide cooling, while hot-air operation and bathroom underfloor heating cover the winter months, when regional monthly averages drop to around 12°C. This dual approach matters in a coastal building from 1998, whose original construction predates modern insulation standards. The exterior surfaces have also been upgraded in effect: the private solarium functions as an additional living area during the long warm season, roughly May through October, when sea temperatures hold above 20°C for about five months. Structurally, the property is an upper-floor bungalow in a two-storey building, a common typology on the southern Costa Blanca that keeps communal costs low and stair access to a single flight. The communal areas, pool and shared garden, are maintained collectively, and buyers should request the community fees and reserve fund status during due diligence, as these costs apply on top of the purchase price. No specific energy performance data is included in the available material; buyers relying on winter comfort should verify the heating installation during a viewing. In summary, the finishing level is consistent with a modernised resale unit: functional, updated where it counts, and delivered ready for occupancy, with the caveat that the underlying building is from 1998 and the overall footprint is compact at 49 m².
The asking price is a fixed €135,000 for this key-ready home; it is not part of a new-build price list and should not be read as a starting figure for multiple units. The price excludes agency commission, which the buyer pays separately and should confirm in writing before budgeting. At €135,000 for 49 m², the property translates to roughly €2,755 per square metre of living space, a figure that excludes the value added by the private solarium and balcony. Comparable new-build apartments in the wider area start from approximately €160,000 in Torrevieja and €227,000 in Urbanización El Raso, indicating that this resale unit is positioned below the entry price of nearby new construction. Availability is immediate upon completion of the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life in La Torreta follows the rhythm of a consolidated residential urbanisation rather than a purpose-built resort. The streets are flat, the gradient to the beach measures only 1.7%, which makes walking and cycling realistic options for most errands. Within a 2 km radius the density of services is high for a settlement of this size: 170 restaurants, 47 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists and 24 bank branches indicate an area that functions year-round rather than closing outside the summer months. Three schools and twelve public transport lines with fifty stops reinforce that picture. The home itself is oriented towards practical outdoor living. The balcony off the living room serves morning coffee or evening reading, while the private solarium on the roof level provides space for sunbathing and al fresco dinners without leaving the property. Inside, the 49 m² layout comprises two bedrooms, a renovated kitchen and a bathroom with underfloor heating, a combination suited to couples, single occupants or holiday use. Air conditioning and a hot-air mode cover the temperature range of a region where monthly averages swing between 12°C in winter and 26°C in summer. Communal facilities include a pool and shared garden, both maintained by the community. The immediate setting is described as an urbanisation near a natural park, which adds walking and cycling routes to the daily options. In practical terms, this is a location where a car is convenient but not strictly necessary: the beach, shops, sports centres and public transport all fall within a short radius of the front door.
The immediate environment combines residential calm with year-round service provision. Within 2 km, residents have access to 170 restaurants, 47 cafés, 27 pharmacies and 27 dentists, a density that keeps the neighbourhood active outside the tourist season and reduces dependence on larger centres. Three schools within the same radius make the area workable for families. Sports infrastructure sits close by: the Baeza sports centre is 1.1 km away as the crow flies, with Poliesportiu el Pla and Tiro de Pichón both around 1.4 km. For golfers, Escuela de golf Elche is 2.2 km away, Font del Llop Golf Resort 8.9 km and Club de Golf Alenda 11.4 km. Electric-vehicle owners have charging options at Endesa (3.5 km), Enercoop (8.9 km) and Iberdrola (9.5 km). Public transport comprises 12 lines and 50 stops, which is substantial for an urbanisation of this size and connects La Torreta with Torrevieja centre and surrounding towns. Regional cities fall within practical driving distance: Elche, with around 235,000 inhabitants, is 32 km away in a straight line, Murcia 39 km and Alicante 44 km. The terrain is flat throughout, elevation is 20 metres with a 1.7% gradient to the sea, so walking and cycling are realistic for most daily trips, including the roughly 1 km route to Platja del Cura beach.
The map shows La Torreta's position inland of Platja del Cura beach, roughly 1 km as the crow flies, in the Torrevieja area of the southern Costa Blanca. Note that straight-line distances are shown; actual road distances are longer. Alicante-Elche Airport lies approximately 36 km to the north-east.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
La Torreta sits on the southern Costa Blanca, between Torrevieja and the inland boundary of the Alicante province. Its position is coastal-adjacent rather than frontline: 1 km from the sea, but with the infrastructure of a mature urbanisation. Regionally, Elche (32 km straight-line) offers larger-city services and a major hospital catchment, Murcia (39 km) provides a metropolitan option to the southwest, and Alicante (44 km) anchors the provincial north. The local population context of roughly 65,000 residents supports year-round commerce, distinguishing the area from purely seasonal resorts. Within the Costa Blanca market, La Torreta occupies the value segment: below frontline Torrevieja pricing while retaining beach proximity.
Platja del Cura beach lies 1.0 km from the property as the crow flies; the actual walking distance is slightly longer given street layouts, but the flat terrain keeps it manageable on foot. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 36 km away in a straight line, making flight connections accessible for international owners and guests. Valencia Airport sits 169 km away and Málaga-Costa del Sol 367 km, both outside daily commuting range but relevant for comparative travel planning. By car, the AP-7 and N-332 corridors connect the area to Torrevieja, Elche and Alicante; the urbanisation itself is served by 12 public transport lines with 50 stops, offering an alternative to driving for local trips. On-site parking is street-based, which is typical for this building typology but means no reserved space is guaranteed. Golf courses, sports centres and EV charging points all fall within the 1–11 km range described above, so most leisure and practical destinations are reachable without long journeys. Buyers should assume road distances exceed the straight-line figures quoted throughout.

The climate data points to a typical southern Costa Blanca profile: an average annual temperature of 18.7°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C at the height of summer. The swimming season extends to roughly five months, during which sea temperatures hold at or above 20°C. Elevation is low at 20 metres above sea level, and the terrain is effectively flat, a 1.7% gradient towards the beach, which shapes the outdoor experience: walking, cycling and beach trips involve no significant climbing. The property's private solarium is the main climate-responsive feature, capturing sun during the long warm season, while the air conditioning, hot-air mode and bathroom underfloor heating address the cooler winter period. The listing also references proximity to a natural park, adding green space for walking and cycling near an otherwise built-up coastal strip. Local life follows a Spanish calendar with 32 public holidays per year, which affects shop opening hours and the rhythm of local festivities.

The nearest beach, Platja del Cura, is 1.0 km away as the crow flies, roughly a 10 to 15 minute walk on flat terrain. This is the primary coastal recreation option and, given the gentle gradient, one of the easiest beach accesses on this stretch of coast for residents without a car. Golf is well represented nearby: Escuela de golf Elche at 2.2 km is a practice and training facility suited to casual play, while Font del Llop Golf Resort (8.9 km) and Club de Golf Alenda (11.4 km) offer full 18-hole courses within a short drive. Everyday recreation is anchored by three sports centres within 1.4 km, Baeza, Poliesportiu el Pla and Tiro de Pichón, covering indoor sports and municipal facilities. The communal pool and garden within the urbanisation provide swimming and relaxation without leaving home, a practical advantage during the roughly five-month warm-water season. Water sports, beachfront dining and coastal walking routes along the Torrevieja shoreline round out the leisure offering, all reachable within a modest radius of the property.

Within its immediate market context, this La Torreta bungalow is positioned as a value-oriented resale option on the southern Costa Blanca. Nearby new-build comparables illustrate the price gap: Apartments Palangre Beach in Torrevieja starts from €160,000, Edificio Sun & Center in Torrevieja from €169,000, and Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso from €227,000. Against these entry points, the fixed €135,000 asking price for a key-ready, fully furnished, recently renovated unit sits between €25,000 and €92,000 below the new-build alternatives, with the caveat that the property is smaller, at 49 m², and dates from 1998 rather than current construction standards. Locationally, La Torreta trades frontline position for practicality. At 1.0 km from Platja del Cura on flat terrain, beach access remains walkable, while the urbanisation itself offers a density of services, 170 restaurants, 27 pharmacies and 50 public transport stops within 2 km, that newer resort developments on the outskirts often lack in their early years. The proximity to a natural park adds a green dimension uncommon in denser coastal strips. Regional positioning also matters: Elche (32 km), Murcia (39 km) and Alicante (44 km) form a triangle of larger cities within driving distance, and Alicante-Elche Airport at roughly 36 km provides international connectivity. Compared with Torrevieja centre, La Torreta is quieter and more residential; compared with inland golf-urbanisation developments such as El Raso, it is closer to the beach and to daily amenities. The trade-offs are clear: no private parking, one bathroom, compact living space and a 1998 building envelope. For buyers whose priority is a low entry price with year-round liveability rather than new-build specification, the regional comparison is favourable; for buyers seeking modern construction, multiple bathrooms or garaged parking, the new-build alternatives, at their respective from-prices, address those requirements.
