This key-ready townhouse is located in Lo Marabú, a residential district of Ciudad Quesada in the southern Alicante province. The property offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms across 104 m² of living space on a 120 m² plot, built in 1970 and available at a fixed asking price of €249,995. The layout spans three levels: a ground floor with living area, kitchen, patio and a bedroom with guest toilet, a first floor with three bedrooms, a full bathroom and a private balcony, and a rooftop solarium with open views. An underbuild provides space for additional rooms. Communal swimming pools are part of the complex.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Lo Marabú sits inland from the coast in an urbanised setting with amenities within walking distance. A supermarket lies roughly 860 m away and a pharmacy just over 800 m, while Mediterranean beaches are about 5.6 km as the crow flies. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 27 km in a straight line, meaning a car journey of somewhat longer duration.
The house suits households needing four bedrooms with clearly separated living zones. The ground-floor bedroom and guest toilet support single-level living or visitors with limited mobility. The first floor can be closed off with its own door, and the rooftop solarium adds private outdoor space. Two communal pools serve the complex.
This is not a new-build project. The townhouse dates from 1970 and is offered key-ready, so buyers take ownership of an existing property without construction risk or phased delivery schedules. Renovation or expansion works, such as fitting out the underbuild, would be undertaken at the buyer's own initiative and cost.
The property does not include a private pool, garage or private garden in the listed features; parking is on-street or private without an enclosed structure. It is an existing 1970 build, so construction standards differ from current regulations. The location is inland rather than beachfront, at roughly 5.6 km straight-line distance from the nearest sand.

Several situations align with this property's characteristics. Families or blended households needing four bedrooms at a sub-€250,000 budget will find few alternatives with this room count in the region. Households planning to accommodate an older relative benefit from the ground-floor bedroom and guest toilet, which reduces stair dependence for one occupant while keeping the first floor private. Buyers with renovation appetite can treat the underbuild as a value-adding project, whether for extra bedrooms, a gym or a cinema room. Those seeking a holiday home with year-round usability will appreciate the walkable amenities and communal pools without upkeep of a private pool. Conversely, the property suits buyers less well if they want a modern new-build finish, a private garden and pool, or beachfront proximity, the nearest sand is roughly 5.6 km away as the crow flies. It also fits residents who prefer not to depend entirely on a car: a supermarket, pharmacy and other daily services sit within walking or short cycling distance, and nine public transport lines operate in the area. Buyers prioritising garage parking should note that only street and open private parking are listed.
As a 1970-built townhouse, the property reflects the construction methods of its period, and interior finishes visible in the listing, including a bathroom with shower and bidet, twin-bedded rooms with storage, and a terrace area with planters, indicate a lived-in condition rather than developer-standard new build. Air conditioning is installed, which matters practically in a climate with average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The property has two full bathrooms' worth of sanitary provision split across levels: a half bathroom on the ground floor and a complete bathroom serving the three first-floor bedrooms. The rooftop solarium is a functional feature typical of the region, extending usable living space outdoors for much of the year. The underbuild represents both opportunity and diligence point: its footprint allows three additional rooms, but buyers should verify structural condition, damp proofing and licensing before assuming conversion costs. No energy performance details are available in the data. Given the age, a technical survey is a reasonable step to assess wiring, plumbing and insulation against current standards. Overall, the finishing level should be assessed as an existing home that has been maintained and used, with renovation potential concentrated in the underbuild.
The asking price is fixed at €249,995 for this existing townhouse. Within its immediate market, this positions the property below nearby new-build alternatives: Lo Marabú Bungalows Phase 2 in Ciudad Quesada starts from €322,000, Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva from €380,000, and Oceanic Apartments in Rojales from €475,000. The price difference largely reflects the 1970 construction date and the existing-build status rather than location quality alone. Buyers should budget separately for any works, particularly converting the underbuild, and factor in standard purchase costs for a resale property in Spain. Availability is immediate, as the home is key-ready.
Daily life in this townhouse follows a practical, layered rhythm across its three levels. Mornings can start on the first-floor balcony off the main bedroom or upstairs on the solarium, where open views and the Spanish climate make it a usable outdoor room for much of the year. The ground floor concentrates daytime living: a living area connected to the kitchen, with a patio at the rear for meals outdoors, drying laundry or small-scale gardening. The dedicated ground-floor bedroom with a half bathroom works for guests, an elderly relative, or as a study, while the first floor, separable by its own door, holds three bedrooms and the full bathroom. This split layout gives a household options for privacy that few compact townhouses offer. The large underbuild is a defining practical feature: with sufficient footprint for three additional rooms, it could become extra bedrooms, a home cinema or a gym, subject to permissions. Outside, residents share two communal swimming pools, which provide the resort-style element without private maintenance obligations. The immediate neighbourhood is urban and walkable: a supermarket within about 860 m, a pharmacy under 900 m, and a bank, dentist and restaurants within 2 km. The area supports year-round living rather than seasonal occupancy, with public transport available on nine lines across five stops. A car is useful for beach trips and airport transfers but is not strictly necessary for daily errands.
The Lo Marabú district offers an inland but fully urbanised living environment. Within 2 km, residents can reach approximately 25 restaurants, two pharmacies, three banks, a café and a dentist, a density that supports permanent residence rather than seasonal visits. The nearest supermarket is roughly 860 m away on foot, and a hospital lies 2.3 km away in a straight line. For recreation, two sports centres sit within 3.5 km (Centro Deportivo La Raqueta at 3.4 km and Polideportivo Municipal El Molino at 3.5 km), and a marina, Port Esportiu Marina de les Dunes, is 7.6 km away. Public transport operates on nine lines with five stops, giving non-drivers a workable alternative for local trips. Electric vehicle owners can charge at the Iberdrola Oasis Center, 3.8 km away. The setting is quieter than the coastal strip, with the advantage of local shopping, including stores such as Aldi and JYSK mentioned in the listing, within walking distance. La Mata Lagoon lies nearby for walks in a natural setting.
The map shows the property's inland position in Lo Marabú, with beaches roughly 5.6 km to the east as the crow flies and daily amenities under one kilometre away. Golf courses, the hospital and regional cities sit within the wider radius shown, with Alicante-Elche airport about 27 km straight-line to the north-east.

Ciudad Quesada occupies a position in the southern Alicante province, between the coastal towns of Torrevieja and Guardamar del Segura and inland towards Rojales. It sits closer to Murcia (37 km) than to Alicante city (38 km), reflecting its place on the border of the Valencian and Murcian regions. Elche, at 22 km, is the nearest large urban centre. Within its own market, Quesada competes with Rojales and Daya Nueva, generally offering older existing stock at lower entry prices alongside newer developments at the higher end.
Beaches sit between 5.6 and 5.8 km away in a straight line, Platja del Montcaio, Platja del Camp and Platja de La Roqueta, so a short drive is needed for a day on the sand. Golfers have three courses within reach: Club de Golf La Finca at about 7.1 km, Club de Golf Villamartín at 15 km and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 16 km. Regional cities are accessible for work, services or culture: Elche (roughly 235,000 inhabitants) is 22 km away, Murcia (about 463,000) at 37 km and Alicante (about 339,000) at 38 km, all straight-line figures. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 27 km as the crow flies, an easy connection for international travel; Valencia airport at 159 km and Málaga at 369 km are alternatives. A car is convenient but not essential for everything, given the walkable amenities and local bus lines.

The location sits at 69 m above sea level on gently inclined terrain inland from the coast. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 18.8°C and monthly averages spanning 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. The swimming season extends to about five months, during which sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above. These figures mean outdoor living on the solarium and patio is realistic from spring through autumn, while winter remains mild enough for year-round occupation without heavy heating demand, supported by the installed air conditioning. Proximity to La Mata Lagoon adds a natural area for walking and birdlife within easy reach. Rainfall is modest, typical of the south-eastern Spanish coast, so outdoor plans are rarely disrupted for long.

Three Mediterranean beaches lie within roughly 5.6 to 5.8 km as the crow flies: Platja del Montcaio, Platja del Camp and Platja de La Roqueta. This stretch of coastline offers the wide sandy shores typical of the Torrevieja area. For golf, three 18-hole courses fall within a 16 km radius, La Finca (7.1 km) being the closest, followed by Villamartín (15 km) and Campoamor (16 km). Sports facilities include two municipal and private centres within 3.5 km, plus a taekwondo club at 5 km. The marina at Marina de les Dunes (7.6 km) covers waterside recreation and dining. Closer to home, the two communal pools in the complex provide daily swimming without travel, and the rooftop solarium serves as private sun space between beach outings.

Within its immediate market, this townhouse is positioned at the entry level of the price range. Lo Marabú Bungalows Phase 2 in Ciudad Quesada starts from €322,000, Oceanic Apartments in Rojales from €475,000, and Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva from €380,000. The €70,000-plus gap to the cheapest new-build comparable reflects three things: construction age, existing versus off-plan delivery, and the absence of developer-standard modern finishing. For budget-driven buyers, the property trades new-build guarantees for more bedrooms per euro, four against the two or three typically offered at these new-build entry prices. Geographically, Ciudad Quesada, Rojales and Daya Nueva share the same inland southern-Alicante character: walkable urbanisations within six to eight kilometres of the beaches of Guardamar and Torrevieja, with golf at La Finca and Villamartín accessible to all three. The differentiator within this cluster is mainly the housing stock itself. Newer projects such as Oceanic command premium pricing through contemporary specification and communal facilities, while established districts like Lo Marabú offer larger plots, mature surroundings and expansion potential, here concretely the underbuild. Buyers weighing this property against the alternatives should therefore frame the decision as existing-build value with renovation optionality versus new-build specification at a higher entry cost. Median provincial income of €15,750 per year also situates the local market: resale properties at this price point remain accessible to a broad buyer base, which supports liquidity relative to premium new-build stock.
