A 98 m² townhouse in a central, established area of Guardamar del Segura, offered at a fixed asking price of €154,900. Built in 1970, the property is distributed over two floors plus a private solarium connected by an internal staircase. The ground floor formerly operated as a bar and retains the counter and a separate kitchen, offering scope for reconfiguration. The first floor holds an open-plan living and dining area with a guest toilet. The town centre, beaches and everyday amenities are within walking distance, making this a coastal renovation project in a convenient urban setting.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property sits in the built-up centre of Guardamar del Segura, roughly 410 metres from Platja Centre and 519 metres from Platja de La Roqueta as the crow flies. A supermarket lies 301 metres away and a pharmacy 244 metres, so daily shopping requires no car. The surrounding streets are urban and established, with restaurants, banks and cafés concentrated within a two-kilometre radius.
The house currently registers one bedroom and one bathroom across 98 m², with the ground floor laid out as a former bar space. Redistribution is possible, subject to local permits, to create additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. The private solarium at the top offers outdoor space without garden maintenance. Buyers should budget for renovation alongside the purchase price.
This is an existing home, completed in 1970, and available key-ready in the sense that no construction phase applies. The interiors shown in current photographs reflect the unrenovated state, including dated kitchen and bathroom fittings. Any modernisation, redistribution or change of use would be carried out by the buyer after purchase, on the buyer's own timeline and budget.
The property offers one bedroom and one bathroom in its current configuration, no private garden, no swimming pool and no parking space is included in the data. The 1970 construction date means older installations that will need inspection and likely replacement. A 7% gradient towards the beach means part of the walk back from the sea is uphill. No lift is present; floors connect via an internal staircase.

This property fits a buyer who wants a project rather than a turnkey home. The asking price, the central location and the flexible ground floor make it workable for someone willing to invest in renovation and obtain the necessary permits for redistribution or change of use. It may suit a first-time buyer on the Costa Blanca who prioritises location over condition: beaches, a supermarket and a pharmacy are all within a five-minute walk, so a car is optional for daily life. It also fits a hands-on investor, since the former bar space on the ground floor suggests possible reactivation as a commercial unit or conversion into additional living space, subject to municipal approval. Buyers who need a move-in-ready home with modern insulation, fitted kitchens and multiple bedrooms should look elsewhere; the current single-bedroom, single-bathroom configuration would need works before it functions as a family home. It is equally less suitable for anyone requiring a garden, private pool or dedicated parking, none of which are part of this property. The two-storey layout with internal staircase and solarium requires comfortable use of stairs. In short: an urban renovation opportunity in a walkable coastal town, for buyers with a budget for works and patience for the permit process.
The building dates from 1970 and the interiors are in original or dated condition. Photographs show a bathroom with blue tiling around a toilet and basin, a kitchen with an older stove, fridge and standing fan, and living areas with existing furniture and fittings that convey the unmodernised state. No information is available on the insulation values, glazing type, boiler age or electrical installation; these would need to be verified through a technical survey before purchase, as 1970s Spanish townhouses commonly require rewiring, plumbing updates and window replacement. The structure, two floors plus solarium connected by an internal staircase, is traditional for the era and the town centre. There is no mention of air conditioning or central heating in the data; the standing fan visible in the kitchen photographs suggests cooling is currently informal. The solarium is unfinished outdoor space at roof level, which typically requires waterproofing checks and shading before comfortable year-round use. Buyers evaluating this property should treat the €154,900 asking price as the starting point and cost renovation separately, obtaining at least indicative quotes for kitchen, bathroom, electrics and windows before committing. Any alteration to the layout, and any change of the ground floor back to commercial use, falls under municipal permitting in Guardamar del Segura.
The asking price is fixed at €154,900 for the whole property; it is not a 'from' price, as this is a single existing home rather than a new-build development with a price list. The property is available now, with no construction phase or delivery schedule. At 98 m², the price works out at roughly €1,580 per square metre before renovation costs. Buyers should factor in modernisation of the kitchen, bathroom, electrics and possibly plumbing, typical for a 1970 building. Comparable new-build options nearby start higher: Kairos Residence Guardamar I from €195,000, Nueva Daya Villa from €380,000 and Oceanic Apartments in Rojales from €475,000. Purchase costs such as transfer tax, notary and registry fees are additional.
Daily life here revolves around the town rather than a resort complex. The house stands in a central neighbourhood of Guardamar del Segura, a municipality of around 18,564 inhabitants at the mouth of the river Segura. Within a short walk there are 62 restaurants, 30 cafés, 8 banks and 6 pharmacies, which means groceries, coffee and errands are all manageable on foot. The nearest beach, Platja Centre, sits about 410 metres away in a straight line; the return walk involves a modest 7% climb, noticeable with shopping bags but not strenuous. The interior of the house currently reflects its mixed history: the ground floor retains a bar counter and separate kitchen from its commercial past, the first floor has an open living-dining area with a guest toilet, and the solarium at the top is an open canvas for outdoor use. Because the property is unrenovated, the first months after purchase would realistically be spent planning works rather than moving straight in. Once completed, the layout would suit a couple, a single buyer, or an investor intending to let. The rhythm of the town is seasonal in the streets near the sea, busy in summer, quieter in winter, while the permanent population keeps shops and services open year-round.
The location is one of the property's strongest factual points. A supermarket at 301 metres and a pharmacy at 244 metres, both straight-line distances, place daily essentials within a few minutes' walk. The beach is comparably close: Platja Centre at about 410 metres, Platja de La Roqueta at 519 metres and Platja Babilònia at 949 metres. The town offers 8 public transport lines and around 50 stops, giving car-free access to surrounding municipalities. For sport, Gimnasio Olimpus is 0.6 km away, the heated Manel Estiarte pool 1.0 km and the municipal pool 1.1 km. The Marina de les Dunes lies 3.2 km away. Healthcare at hospital level requires a trip of 7.6 km. Electric-vehicle charging points start at 3.9–4.2 km, so an EV owner would charge away from home. The urban setting means street noise and activity levels typical of a town centre, livelier in the summer season.

Guardamar del Segura occupies a mid-coastal position on the southern Costa Blanca, 32 km straight-line from Alicante and 20 km from Elche. It is considerably smaller and calmer than either city, with a resident population near 18,500, while remaining close enough for airport access and urban services. Within the local market it is more established and town-like than inland Daya Nueva or Rojales, where comparable new-build projects sit in more dispersed, purpose-developed settings. The property's position in the town centre places it among the older building stock rather than in a modern coastal development.
Beaches: three within 950 metres straight-line, as noted above. Alicante-Elche airport lies roughly 24 km away in a direct line, making flights accessible though the source data notes the location is at a greater distance from the airport than some coastal spots; Valencia airport is about 157 km and Málaga about 374 km. Regional cities frame the position: Elche (around 234,765 inhabitants) at 20 km, Alicante (339,322) at 32 km and Murcia (462,979) at 43 km, all straight-line distances. Golfers face a longer drive: Club de Golf La Finca at 12 km, Villamartín at 18 km and the Elche golf school at 20 km. A car is useful for the hospital, golf and airport but not strictly necessary for daily life given the walkable amenities and public transport lines in town.

Guardamar del Segura lies at the mouth of the river Segura, with a large pine forest bordering an 11-kilometre stretch of white sand beach, the dune and pine landscape being the town's defining natural feature. Elevation is 33 metres above sea level, essentially flat in town, with a 7% gradient on the route to the shore. The climate is Mediterranean: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual average of 18.7°C. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months. The solarium of this house gains direct sun exposure through much of the day, though shading would need to be added for summer comfort.

The municipality holds five Blue Flag beaches: Centre, De Vivers, Del Moncaio, La Roqueta and Ortigues-Campo, a quality benchmark for water and services. Platja Centre, roughly 410 metres from the property, functions as the town's main urban beach; La Roqueta and Babilònia extend the choice southwards. The pine forest behind the dunes provides shaded walking and cycling routes unusual for a built-up coastal town. For organised sport, the listings include a gymnasium at 0.6 km, two swimming pools within 1.1 km and the Palau Sant Jordi sports complex at 1.1 km. The marina at 3.2 km covers mooring and water activities. Golf is the one recreation that requires a drive, with the nearest course 12 km away.

Within its immediate market, this townhouse occupies a distinct position among the comparable projects listed. Kairos Residence Guardamar I, in the same municipality, is a new-build scheme priced from €195,000, meaning an entry point roughly €40,000 above this property's fixed asking price, in exchange for modern construction, current building standards and a delivery process rather than a renovation obligation. Further afield, Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva starts at €380,000 and Oceanic Apartments in Rojales at €475,000; both represent a higher budget bracket, typically buying newer finishes, more space or communal facilities in purpose-developed settings. The trade-off for this property is clear: at €154,900 it is the cheapest of the four, but the price reflects a 1970 building in original condition with a single bedroom and bathroom, a former commercial space on the ground floor, and no garden, pool or included parking. Location-wise, the comparison also favours centrality over resort-style amenities: the townhouse stands within walking distance of beaches, shops and services in an established Spanish coastal town of about 18,500 residents, whereas the Rojales and Daya Nueva options sit in quieter, more dispersed inland-or-urbanisation environments where a car is essential for daily errands. The median provincial income of €15,750 and the town's year-round population indicate a functioning local economy rather than a purely seasonal resort, which is relevant for buyers considering letting income outside the summer months. Whether the lower entry price outweighs the renovation cost and effort depends on the buyer's budget for works and appetite for managing a refurbishment project in Spain, including permit procedures with the Guardamar del Segura municipality.
