This three-bedroom bungalow is located in La Siesta, an established residential neighbourhood in Torrevieja on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers 112 m² of living space spread across three floors, with two bathrooms, a front garden, a balcony on the first floor and a rooftop terrace with views over the salt lakes and surrounding mountains. The home was completed in 1986, is key-ready and is offered at a fixed asking price of €189,000. Platja del Cura beach lies approximately 1 km away as the crow flies, and the neighbourhood provides a wide range of daily amenities within walking and short driving distance.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
La Siesta is a residential neighbourhood within Torrevieja, situated inland of the coastal strip at roughly 20 metres above sea level. The terrain towards the beach is flat, with an average gradient of 1.7 percent. The nearest beach, Platja del Cura, lies about 1 km away in a direct line. Shops and services including Habaneras Shopping Centre and several supermarkets are reachable within a few minutes by car.
The property is arranged over three floors and provides three bedrooms, two bathrooms with walk-in showers, a separate laundry room, storage space and a south-facing orientation. The ground floor contains a bedroom, a bathroom and the living area with a connected kitchen. The upper floor holds two bedrooms with balcony access, while the top level offers a flexible room and a rooftop terrace with a retractable awning.
This is an existing home, completed in 1986, not a new-build development. The construction status is key-ready, meaning the property can be occupied directly after purchase. The condition is recorded as fair, which indicates the home is habitable in its current state. Documentation of the exact year of any renovations would need to be verified during the purchase process.
The property is sold without furniture. It is an older existing home in fair condition rather than a newly constructed property, so buyers should account for the age of the building and installations. There is no mention of a private pool, private parking space or communal facilities in the available data. Central heating is present; no air conditioning is recorded in the feature list.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A household seeking a permanent residence in an established, non-touristic neighbourhood benefits from the ground-floor bedroom and bathroom, the separate laundry room and the proximity of supermarkets and schools within the surrounding area. Buyers looking for a second home or holiday residence will find the rooftop terrace, balcony and 1 km distance to Platja del Cura relevant, along with a five-month swimming season during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20 degrees. The property also suits buyers who prioritise interior space and multiple outdoor areas over a new-build finish, since 112 m² plus balcony, garden and rooftop terrace is comparatively generous at this price level. A buyer intending to work remotely could use the top-floor room as an office, taking advantage of the flexible layout. Situations with a weaker match include buyers who require a modern energy-efficient new build, private parking on title, a private pool or furnished delivery, none of which are recorded in the available data. Buyers who prefer lift access should also note the three-floor layout without mention of an elevator.
The home dates from 1986 and is recorded in fair condition, which places it in the habitable category while leaving room for modernisation over time. Interior finishes include wood flooring, a material that characterises the main living spaces and generally requires normal maintenance rather than replacement. The kitchen is equipped with appliances including a refrigerator and washing machine, as visible in the listing imagery, and benefits from a skylight that adds daylight to the working area. Both bathrooms are fitted with walk-in showers rather than bathtubs, which simplifies daily use and corresponds with a more contemporary bathroom layout. The property includes central heating, a feature that extends comfortable use of the home into the winter months, when regional temperatures still average around 12 degrees. No air conditioning system is listed in the available features, which is worth verifying given summer averages of up to 26 degrees. The property is delivered unfurnished, allowing the incoming owner to determine the interior arrangement. As with any home of this age, the condition of the roof, electrical installation and plumbing would sensibly be reviewed through an independent technical survey before purchase. The retractable awning on the rooftop terrace is a practical addition that extends usable hours outdoors during warm periods.
The property is offered at a fixed asking price of €189,000. This is an existing home rather than a new-build project with a price list, so the figure is a single asking price and not a starting price. The price covers 112 m² of living space across three floors with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, which works out at approximately €1,688 per square metre. For context, comparable projects in the wider Torrevieja area currently start from around €160,000 to €227,000, though those figures relate to new-build apartments. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status. Transfer costs, notary fees and taxes are additional to the asking price.
Daily life in this bungalow revolves around a vertical layout that separates functions across three floors. The ground floor works as the main living zone: a living room connected to a generously sized kitchen, a bedroom, a bathroom with a walk-in shower, a laundry room and storage. This arrangement suits households that prefer single-level living during the day or want a ground-floor bedroom available. The first floor holds the two remaining bedrooms, each with access to a balcony oriented towards La Siesta and the mountains beyond, sharing a second bathroom with a walk-in shower. The top floor adds a flexible interior space that can serve as a home office or reading area, followed by the rooftop terrace. That terrace faces the surrounding neighbourhood, the two salt lakes and distant mountain ridges, and carries a retractable awning that creates shade for outdoor dining or resting during the warmer hours. The south-facing orientation supports sun exposure across the day, which is relevant given the regional average of 18.7 degrees annually. The neighbourhood itself is residential and established rather than touristic, with La Siesta Park within walking distance for walks and outdoor activity. Everyday shopping is concentrated around Carrefour, Mercadona and the Habaneras Shopping Centre, all within a short drive. With roughly 170 restaurants and 47 cafés within a 2 km radius, most daily errands and dining options do not require long travel times.
La Siesta functions as a residential neighbourhood within the municipality of Torrevieja, a city with a population of roughly 65,000 that expands considerably during the tourist season. The area density is reflected in the amenities within a 2 km radius: around 170 restaurants, 47 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists, 24 bank branches and 3 schools. This concentration means that daily needs, from prescriptions to banking and schooling, are met without leaving the immediate area. La Siesta Park lies within walking distance and provides green space for walks and outdoor activity. Shopping is anchored by the Habaneras Shopping Centre, Carrefour and Mercadona, each reachable in approximately five minutes by car. Public transport is well developed for a neighbourhood of this size, with 12 lines and 50 stops recorded, which reduces dependence on a car for shorter trips, although most residents in this part of the Costa Blanca use a vehicle for weekly shopping and regional travel. The neighbourhood sits at 20 metres above sea level with a flat gradient of 1.7 percent towards the coast, making walking and cycling to the beach realistic for most people. The area maintains a year-round residential character, in contrast to districts closer to the seafront that empty outside the summer months.
The map shows the property in La Siesta, with Platja del Cura beach 1 km to the east in a direct line and the Habaneras Shopping Centre area a short drive to the south-east. The salt lakes of the natural park lie inland to the north. All distances shown are straight-line; actual road distances are longer.

La Siesta occupies a position within Torrevieja, on the southern Costa Blanca rather than the Costa del Sol, closer to both Alicante and Murcia than to Málaga. Elche lies 32 km away in a direct line, Murcia 39 km and Alicante 44 km, giving residents access to three substantial urban centres within an hour's drive. Alicante-Elche Airport, 36 km away, is the main international connection. Within Torrevieja itself, La Siesta represents the established residential inland side of the city, one step removed from the seafront strips that dominate the tourist season, while still only 1 km from the beach.
The nearest beach, Platja del Cura, lies 1.0 km from the property as the crow flies, with the route effectively flat. Two quieter coves, cala del Barranc d'Aigües at 4.8 km and cala Piteres at 5.0 km in a direct line, offer alternatives to the urban beaches. The nearest marina is Club Náutico Campello at 6.7 km straight-line, and golfers can reach Club de Golf Bonalba at 11.3 km. An electric vehicle charging point operated by Endesa is located 7.8 km away. Regional cities frame the location: Elche at 32 km, Murcia at 39 km and Alicante at 44 km, all straight-line distances, with road distances somewhat longer. Alicante-Elche Airport lies approximately 36 km away in a direct line, making it the primary gateway for international travel; Valencia Airport at 169 km and Málaga Airport at 367 km serve as secondary options. Within the neighbourhood itself, 12 public transport lines and 50 stops provide coverage of Torrevieja and the surrounding municipalities.

The climate data for the area shows an average annual temperature of 18.7 degrees, with monthly averages ranging from 12 degrees in the coolest months to 26 degrees in summer. This pattern supports outdoor use of the rooftop terrace and balcony for most of the year, with the retractable awning providing shade during the hottest period. The swimming season extends across five months, during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20 degrees, roughly May through October in practice. The property sits at a low elevation of 20 metres above sea level, with a gradient to the beach of only 1.7 percent, meaning the terrain is flat and walkable in all directions. The immediate natural setting combines urban residential streets with the nearby salt lakes of Torrevieja and La Mata, visible from the rooftop terrace together with mountain ridges further inland. These lagoons form part of a protected natural park and shape the local landscape. Central heating in the home addresses the mild but occasionally cool winter months, when temperatures average around 12 degrees.

Coastal recreation is anchored by Platja del Cura, an urban beach approximately 1 km away in a direct line and reachable on foot or by bicycle over flat terrain. Two smaller coves lie within 5 km: cala del Barranc d'Aigües at 4.8 km and cala Piteres at 5.0 km straight-line, both suited to quieter swimming away from the main promenade. For boat owners or marina visitors, Club Náutico Campello lies 6.7 km away. Golf is available at Club de Golf Bonalba, 11.3 km in a direct line, an 18-hole course set inland from the coast. On a daily level, La Siesta Park provides the closest green space for walks, running and informal sport, while the salt lakes of the natural park offer longer walking and cycling routes. The five-month swimming season frames the recreational calendar: sea temperatures at or above 20 degrees from roughly late spring to early autumn. The rooftop terrace extends this outdoors rhythm, with the awning allowing use during the midday hours of summer and open-sky seating in the evenings, oriented towards the lakes and mountains.

At €189,000 for 112 m², this bungalow is priced at roughly €1,688 per square metre, which places it in the accessible segment of the Torrevieja market. Comparable new-build projects in the same municipality show a different profile. Apartments Palangre Beach in Torrevieja starts from €160,000, and Edificio Sun & Center, also in Torrevieja and likewise key-ready, starts from €169,000, both lower entry prices, but typically for smaller new-build apartments rather than a three-storey bungalow with a private rooftop terrace. Oasis Laguna 2 Fase II in Urbanización El Raso starts from €227,000, positioning itself above this property in price while offering newer construction. The essential trade-off is age and finish versus space and outdoor area: this 1986 bungalow delivers more internal square metres, a garden, a balcony and a private rooftop terrace per euro spent, whereas the new-build alternatives offer modern construction standards, better thermal performance and contemporary specifications within a smaller footprint. Locationally, La Siesta is inland of Torrevieja's seafront, which tempers seasonal tourist pressure in the immediate streets while keeping the beach within walking distance over flat ground. The neighbourhood's amenity density, 170 restaurants, 27 pharmacies and 24 banks within 2 km, matches that of the coastal strips, but with a more year-round residential rhythm. For buyers weighing the Costa Blanca South against the Costa del Sol, the regional geography matters: Alicante airport at 36 km straight-line is the natural hub here, with Murcia at 39 km providing a second large city within reach, while Málaga lies 367 km away and is not a practical reference point for daily life.
