This two-bedroom apartment sits on Calle Mayor in the centre of Garrucha, a coastal town in the province of Almería. The property forms part of a small residential building with eight apartments and is located approximately 50 metres from the beach and promenade. The home was fully renovated in 2026, including updated electrical and plumbing installations, and is sold fully furnished with an equipped kitchen. Air conditioning and a video intercom are installed. Residents have access to a communal rooftop solarium. The asking price is fixed at €179,000.
Within the local market of the Almería coast, Garrucha occupies a distinct position. Its nearest neighbours are Mojácar, split between a hillside white village and the coastal Mojácar Playa, and Vera Playa, a low-rise beach development popular with international residents. Mojácar Playa offers a wider tourist infrastructure and more seasonal activity, while Vera Playa provides a quieter, more spread-out residential beach environment where a car is generally needed for daily errands. Garrucha differs from both: it is a functioning Spanish town with a fishing port, a resident population and a full range of year-round shops, cafés and services concentrated in a compact centre. This apartment sits precisely in that centre, roughly 50 metres from the beach, which is a stronger walkability position than most properties in the surrounding beach areas, where homes are typically set back from amenities or scattered along urbanisations. In price terms, the Almería coast as a whole sits below the Costa del Sol and the more saturated parts of the Costa Blanca, and a renovated, furnished two-bedroom apartment at €179,000 in a town-centre location is consistent with that regional gap. Buyers comparing this property with new-build developments further south or west will notice differences in the offering: no pool, no gym and no landscaped communal zones here, but also no community fees associated with large resort complexes, and a fully completed, inspectable home rather than an off-plan purchase. Compared with other apartments within Garrucha itself, the combination of a 2026 renovation, updated installations, full furnishing and the rooftop solarium access narrows the gap with newer stock, while the 1970 building and single bathroom remain points of comparison for buyers weighing older town-centre homes against modern construction on the edge of town.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands in the centre of Garrucha on Calle Mayor, roughly 50 metres from the beach and the seafront promenade. Restaurants, cafés, shops, supermarkets and leisure facilities are within walking distance, and a family park is located nearby. Everyday errands can be done on foot, and the seafront is reached within moments of leaving the building.
The home offers two bedrooms and one bathroom across approximately 83 m² of built area, with an open-plan living and dining room and a modern kitchen. It is delivered fully furnished, so it can be occupied directly after purchase. Air conditioning provides year-round comfort, and the communal rooftop solarium adds shared outdoor space for sunbathing and relaxation above the building.
This concerns an existing home, originally completed in 1970, which underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2026. The renovation covered the interior, the electrical installation and the plumbing. The property is key-ready: no further building work, furnishing or significant additional expenditure is required before moving in or letting it out.
The building dates from 1970 and contains eight apartments, with no lift, swimming pool, garden or private parking included in the price. A parking space near the building can be purchased separately. The home has one bathroom and no private garden; outdoor space is limited to the private terrace and the shared rooftop solarium. No energy performance details are stated.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer looking for a low-maintenance permanent home on the Spanish coast will find that the central location, walkable amenities and updated installations remove most of the practical obstacles of relocation. A buyer seeking a second home that can be used from the day of completion benefits from the fully furnished delivery and the proximity of the beach, roughly 50 metres from the building. An investor focused on rental potential may value the combination of a town-centre address, a renovated interior and year-round demand in a working Spanish town rather than a seasonal resort. The home is less obvious for buyers who want a private garden, a communal pool or a modern off-plan development with extensive facilities, as none of these are present. It also suits buyers who prefer not to drive daily: shops, restaurants, the promenade and the beach are all within walking distance. Buyers with a car can purchase a parking space separately, which is worth considering given the central position. The 1970 construction year is relevant for those who weigh building age heavily, although the 2026 renovation addressed the interior and the core installations. In short, the property matches buyers who prioritise location, readiness and simplicity over space, facilities and new construction.
The apartment was comprehensively renovated in 2026, which is recent enough that the interior, systems and finishings reflect current standards rather than those of the original 1970 construction. The renovation included the electrical and plumbing installations, addressing the two elements that most often cause hidden costs in older Spanish apartments. The kitchen is fully equipped and delivered with the property, as shown in the listing photographs, which depict a modern kitchen with white appliances and marble flooring in the hallway. The living and dining area is arranged as an open-plan space, and the interior photographs show a fresh, neutral finish throughout. Air conditioning is installed for both cooling and heating, providing year-round climate control, and a video intercom adds convenience and an extra layer of security at the entrance. The home is sold fully furnished, meaning the buyer does not need to budget for furniture, white goods or kitchen equipment. In terms of structure and building fabric, the property forms part of a small 1970 building with eight apartments; buyers planning a survey should focus on the communal elements, such as the roof, facade and any community maintenance arrangements, as these fall outside the scope of the interior renovation. The private terrace and access to the communal rooftop solarium provide outdoor space, although the solarium is a shared facility rather than private. Overall, the finishing level is that of a recently modernised apartment rather than a new-build development, with the advantage that the buyer can see and inspect the exact finished product before purchase.
The apartment is offered at a fixed asking price of €179,000. This is an existing, key-ready home rather than a new-build project with a price list, so the price applies to this specific property. For that amount, the buyer receives approximately 83 m² of built area with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a full renovation completed in 2026, updated electrical and plumbing installations, air conditioning, a video intercom and a fully furnished interior including an equipped kitchen. A parking space near the building is available as a separate purchase for buyers who want private parking. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process and notary arrangements.
Garrucha is a working fishing town on the Almería coast, and this apartment sits in the middle of it, on the main street, Calle Mayor. Daily life here is organised on foot. The beach and promenade are about 50 metres from the front door, which means a morning swim, a walk along the seafront or an evening meal at a waterfront restaurant require no car and no planning. Supermarkets, cafés, pharmacies and shops are clustered in the surrounding streets, so the weekly shop and small daily errands are a matter of minutes. The apartment itself is on the first floor of a small building with eight homes, which typically means a manageable community and a quieter setting than larger tourist complexes. The interior layout is straightforward: two bedrooms, one bathroom, an open-plan living and dining area and a modern kitchen. Because the property was renovated in 2026, including the electrical and plumbing installations, the new owner starts with updated systems rather than a renovation project. The home is sold fully furnished, which suits buyers who want to use it immediately, whether as a permanent residence, a holiday base or a rental property. The communal rooftop solarium on top of the building provides shared outdoor space with sun exposure throughout the day, compensating partly for the absence of a private garden. Outside the summer months, Garrucha retains its year-round Spanish character: the town does not empty out after August, and local restaurants, markets and shops continue to serve residents through winter.
Living on Calle Mayor places residents in the commercial and social centre of Garrucha. The street and its surroundings contain restaurants, cafés, shops, supermarkets and leisure facilities, and a family park is located nearby. The beach and promenade lie roughly 50 metres away, measured directly from the building, making the seafront a natural extension of daily life rather than a destination requiring a trip. This has a practical consequence: a car is not needed for everyday activities. The promenade runs along the town's coastline and is lined with restaurants and cafés, which suits both daily routines and leisure time. Garrucha itself is known as a fishing town, and its harbour and seafood restaurants form part of the local identity. The town maintains a resident population throughout the year, so the neighbourhood does not become dormant outside the tourist season, an important distinction compared with purpose-built resort areas further along the coast. For travel beyond the town, the A-7 motorway connects the Almería coast with Murcia to the north and the provincial capital and Málaga region to the west. Almería city and its airport are reachable by car, as are the larger tourist centres of Mojácar and Vera Playa. Buyers should note that distances to regional destinations are measured as the crow flies unless stated otherwise, and actual travel times by road are longer.
The map shows the apartment's position on Calle Mayor, in the heart of Garrucha. The beach and promenade lie approximately 50 metres away, with the town's shops, restaurants and the fishing port within the immediate surroundings. The flat coastal layout of the town makes nearly all marked amenities walkable.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Garrucha occupies a coastal position in the province of Almería, in eastern Andalusia, between the tourist town of Mojácar to the south and the beach area of Vera Playa to the north. Compared with the Costa del Sol further west, this stretch of coast is less densely developed, with lower property prices and a stronger year-round Spanish presence in its towns. Within this local market, Garrucha functions as a genuine service town with a fishing port, rather than a resort, which supports year-round amenities. The apartment's position on the main street places it at the functional centre of that town.
The most relevant distance in this case is a very short one: the beach and promenade are approximately 50 metres from the building. This effectively eliminates the beach commute that defines many coastal properties. Daily amenities such as supermarkets, shops, cafés and restaurants are concentrated in the town centre around Calle Mayor and are accessible on foot. A family park is situated nearby. Garrucha does not have its own train station, so public transport within the town relies on buses, and regional connections run towards Almería city and the surrounding municipalities. For this reason, most residents use a car for regional travel, and the optional parking space near the building is a practical addition for buyers who own one. The A-7 motorway passes inland of the coastal towns, linking Garrucha with Vera, Mojácar, Almería city and, further afield, Murcia. Almería Airport serves the province, with a wider range of flights available from the airports of Murcia and Málaga at greater distances. Within the town itself, the central position means that walking covers nearly all daily needs.
The Almería coast is one of the driest and sunniest stretches of Mediterranean Spain. Garrucha lies at sea level on a largely flat coastal strip, which means no hillside access roads or steep walks between the town and the beach; the flat terrain also makes walking and cycling practical for daily transport. The province records around 3,000 sunshine hours per year, with hot, dry summers and mild winters, and rainfall concentrated in a limited number of days outside summer. For residents, this translates into a long outdoor season: beach visits, promenade walks and rooftop solarium use are realistic from spring through late autumn, and winter days are generally mild enough for outdoor life during the middle of the day. The sea moderates summer temperatures on the coast compared with inland Almería, where the semi-desert interior of the province reaches considerably higher peaks. The swimming season is long, typically from late spring into October. Buyers sensitive to summer heat should note that air conditioning is installed in the apartment. The surrounding landscape is characterised by the dry, rugged terrain typical of eastern Andalusia, with the coastal mountains of the Sierra de Cabrera to the south and agricultural plains inland.

The beach nearest to the apartment lies roughly 50 metres from the building, on the other side of the seafront road, and the promenade runs directly along it. Garrucha's beaches are wide, dark-sand beaches typical of this part of the Almería coast, and the town's promenade is lined with restaurants and cafés facing the sea. Daily recreation here is simple: morning and evening walks, swimming, and time on the communal rooftop solarium, which provides sun exposure throughout the day. The fishing port remains active and gives the town its working maritime character, distinct from purely tourist resorts. Further along the coast, the beaches of Vera Playa to the north and the coves below Mojácar to the south extend the range of seaside options within a short drive. There are no golf courses in Garrucha itself; the nearest golf facilities are found in the Mojácar and Vera area, reachable by car. Water sports, walking routes in the nearby Sierra de Cabrera and the natural areas of the Almería coast provide additional leisure options. For sport closer to home, the flat town and promenade suit running and cycling.
