Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in the district of Ciudad Quesada, an inland urbanised area known for its residential character. It is situated on an elevation of 22 metres above sea level. The setting is not rural but part of a developed community, offering a balance between privacy and proximity to commercial services.
With four bedrooms and a total living area of 175 m², the layout addresses the need for capacity suitable for family use or hosting guests. The presence of a private swimming pool and multiple terraces accommodates the desire for outdoor leisure space without reliance on communal facilities.
This is a resale property, originally completed around 1970. The construction is established, meaning the structural development has matured. The property is available for immediate occupation, distinguishing it from off-plan developments which require waiting periods for completion.
The villa is not located on the beachfront; access to the sea requires transportation. Being a construction from the 1970s, it does not meet the latest energy efficiency standards typically found in new builds without potential renovation. The plot size, while private, does not qualify as a large estate.
This residence is suitable for buyers requiring immediate occupancy rather than waiting for construction. It fits families or individuals needing multiple bedrooms and prefer a location that is not isolated. The property is relevant for those who value the convenience of having supermarkets, medical services, and dining options within walking distance, while still maintaining a private outdoor space.
The interior features an open-plan living and dining area, designed to facilitate natural light flow. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, indicating an update from the original 1970s installation. Flooring and fixtures are consistent with the Mediterranean climate, favouring durability and heat management. The outdoor areas include a covered patio and a maintained garden, providing structured spaces for outdoor living. The finish level represents a functional and habitable standard, typical of a renovated older property.
The property is listed with a starting price of €470,000. This price point positions the villa within the mid-range segment for detached properties in the Ciudad Quesada area. The value reflects the combination of a generous plot size, the presence of a private pool, and the immediate availability of the home. Compared to local new developments such as the Lo Marabú phases, which start lower but often offer smaller plots or semi-detached configurations, this villa offers a detached alternative.
Daily life in this residence revolves around a rhythm of private comfort and urban accessibility. The immediate environment allows for morning walks to local supermarkets and cafes, with 35 restaurants and 7 pharmacies located within a 2 km radius. The private pool and garden offer a secluded space for relaxation during the day, shielded from the busier tourist areas. Evenings can be spent enjoying the outdoor terraces. The area is characterised by a mix of permanent residents and holiday homeowners, supported by 9 public transport lines connecting the wider region.
The surrounding infrastructure is well-developed, characterised by an urban density that supports daily living without the need for long-distance travel. Essential services such as banks, dentists, and schools are present in the vicinity. The area is pedestrian-friendly for basic errands, though a vehicle is recommended for exploring beyond the immediate district. The connectivity is supported by a network of bus lines, providing links to the coastal towns and nearby cities.
The map displays the villa's position within the grid-like structure of Ciudad Quesada, slightly removed from the immediate coastline. The location highlights the short distance to the salt lakes of La Mata and Torrevieja, a significant ecological landmark in the region. The visual context emphasises the blend of residential zones and surrounding natural landscape.

In comparison to new developments such as Area Beach V Lo Marabú, which starts at €364,000 for phases 1 and 2, this villa presents a different value proposition. While the new builds offer modern energy efficiency and communal facilities, they typically come with smaller plot sizes and potential construction noise. This detached villa, priced at €470,000, offers a larger, private plot and immediate availability. It avoids the uncertainty of off-plan purchases. Compared to the Lo Marabu Villas starting at €549,000, this property offers a similar detached status at a lower entry price, albeit with older construction standards. The location in Ciudad Quesada offers a more established, year-round atmosphere compared to the sometimes seasonal nature of strictly tourist-oriented developments.
