This key-ready corner apartment is located in La Zenia, in the Orihuela Costa area of the province of Alicante. Built in 2014, the property offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and 75 m² of living space, spread across a bright corner position with east, south and west orientations. It is sold furnished and includes an underground parking space plus a second covered parking space directly in front of the apartment. A glazed terrace with folding doors provides a flexible extra living area that can be opened in summer and closed in winter. The asking price is fixed at €329,000.
Within the southern Costa Blanca, this apartment occupies a distinct market position relative to nearby new-build offerings. In Torrevieja, the Palangre Beach apartments are marketed from approximately €160,000 and the key-ready Edificio Sun & Center from about €169,000, both notably below the €329,000 fixed price of this La Zenia property. Further inland, Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso starts from around €227,000. The price gap is explained by several concrete factors. First, this is a turn-key, furnished existing home with two bathrooms and two parking spaces, a combination rarely included at the entry-level price points in Torrevieja, where units at €160,000 typically offer one bathroom and additional costs for parking and furnishing. Second, the location differs qualitatively: La Zenia sits directly beside the La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre and within 0.7 km of three coves, whereas lower-priced Torrevieja units tend to sit further from both the beach and major retail, and the El Raso development lies inland, several kilometres from the coast. Third, the corner orientation with three exposures and the folding-door terrace add functional area that entry-level new builds in the region usually lack. Geographically, La Zenia benefits from its position at the junction of Alicante province and the Murcia region: Murcia city is 36 km away and Alicante-Elche Airport roughly 42 km, giving residents two urban centres and one main airport within practical reach. The area's climate profile, 18.9°C annual average and a five-month swimming season, matches the wider Orihuela Costa. For buyers comparing options, the trade-off is clear: new-build projects offer modern specifications and warranty coverage at lower entry prices, while this property offers immediate habitability, a walkable location and included assets at a higher but fixed price point.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
La Zenia sits on the southern Costa Blanca, within Orihuela Costa and roughly 36 km as the crow flies from Murcia and 38 km from Elche. The apartment lies about 250 metres from La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre, with the nearest beaches approximately 0.7 km away in a straight line. The area is flat, with an average gradient of 2.6% towards the sea, and sits at 22 metres above sea level.
The apartment is designed for practical year-round or seasonal use. Two bathrooms serve two bedrooms, air conditioning is installed, and the communal pool provides seasonal bathing. Daily needs are covered within a short walk: 67 restaurants, 19 cafés, 8 banks, 5 pharmacies and 4 dentists are within 2 km. Public transport comprises 9 lines with 50 stops in the vicinity.
This is not a new-build project. The apartment was completed in 2014 and is key-ready, meaning it can be transferred in its current finished state. It is sold furnished as shown, which reduces the lead time between purchase and occupation. As an existing home, no construction phases or indicative delivery schedules apply.
The property has no private pool; bathing is via the communal pool only. Living space is 75 m², which is compact for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout. There is no private garden, and the views are limited to the pool area rather than the sea. Rental use is possible but remains subject to applicable regulations and an independent profitability analysis.
This apartment suits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a low-maintenance coastal base within walking distance of shops and beaches would find the compact layout, two bathrooms and walkable surroundings practical. A buyer relocating year-round benefits from the flat terrain, the year-round services within 2 km and the 9 public transport lines with 50 stops, which reduce dependence on a car. A buyer of a seasonal second home may value the furnished, key-ready condition, the property can be used immediately without furnishing projects. The east-south-west orientation supports use across the seasons, with the glazed terrace extending comfort into the cooler months. Investors considering a rental project will note the location near the shopping centre and beaches, the two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and the inclusion of furnishings and parking, a combination that broadens the potential tenant group. However, rental use requires verification against current regional regulations and an independent yield calculation. Buyers requiring a private pool, sea views or a larger plot will not find these here; the communal pool, pool-facing views and 75 m² footprint define the limits of what the property offers. Households needing more than two bedrooms should also look elsewhere. In short, the property matches buyers who prioritise location, convenience and readiness over space and exclusivity.
The apartment dates from 2014, placing it in the modern construction era of Orihuela Costa, a period in which thermal insulation standards, double glazing and pre-installation for air conditioning became standard practice in Spanish residential building. The unit is equipped with air conditioning for climate control. As a corner apartment with east, south and west exposures, it receives direct natural light across most of the day, which reduces reliance on artificial lighting and supports passive heating in winter. The interior layout, as shown in the photographic material, combines an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, a configuration that maximises the sense of space within 75 m², with a twin bedroom and a main bedroom, each served by the two bathrooms. The most notable technical feature is the terrace enclosed with folding doors. This system allows the terrace to function as an open outdoor space in summer and as a fully enclosed, climate-buffered room in winter, effectively adding a flexible living zone. The property is sold furnished in the condition shown, which removes the cost and coordination of a furnishing project, though buyers should assess the age and condition of the included items during a viewing. Parking provision is above average for the segment: one underground space, protected from sun and weather, plus a second covered space directly in front of the apartment, relevant for households with two cars or for visiting guests. The communal pool is shared with the residential community, and its maintenance is covered within the monthly community fee of €85.
The asking price for this apartment is fixed at €329,000. This is an existing, key-ready home sold furnished, including one underground parking space and a second covered parking space in front of the unit. Compared with new-build alternatives in the wider area, apartments in Torrevieja from approximately €160,000 and in Urbanización El Raso from around €227,000, this property sits at the higher end, a position explained by its corner orientation, dual bathrooms, furnishings, two parking spaces and immediate proximity to the La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre. Recurring costs are documented: community fees of €85 per month and annual property tax (IBI) of approximately €330. Availability depends on the current sales status; interested parties should request up-to-date information.
Daily life around this apartment is organised around walkability. With La Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres in the province, about 250 metres from the door, groceries, retail and cinemas are effectively around the corner. The concentration of restaurants and cafés within 2 km means that eating out or having a coffee requires no car. The beaches of Playa Cala Bosque, Playa Cala Cerrada and Playa Cala Estaca lie between 0.7 and 0.9 km away in a straight line, roughly a 15-minute walk, so a morning swim or an evening stroll along the coves is a routine option rather than an outing. The apartment itself functions as a corner unit with three orientations, which spreads natural light across the day: morning sun from the east, midday and afternoon sun from the south, and evening light from the west. The glazed terrace with folding doors is the most distinctive functional element. Open in the warmer months, it works as an extension of the living space towards the pool area; closed in winter, it becomes an additional heated room. This effectively adds usable area to a compact 75 m² floor plan. Parking is covered twice over: one underground space and a second covered space in front of the apartment. For residents who travel frequently, an Ionity fast-charging station for electric vehicles is 0.6 km away, with two further charging options within 2.2 km. The surrounding area is a mixed residential-tourist zone: busier in July and August, quieter outside the season, but with enough permanent residents and year-round services, pharmacies, banks, dentists, to remain functional through the winter.
The immediate environment is dense with services. Within a 2 km radius, the area counts 67 restaurants, 19 cafés, 8 bank branches, 5 pharmacies and 4 dental practices, a level of provision that keeps daily errands within walking or short driving distance. The La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre, approximately 250 metres away, anchors the neighbourhood with retail, supermarkets and leisure. The nearest beaches, Playa Cala Bosque and Playa Cala Cerrada at 0.7 km, and Playa Cala Estaca at 0.9 km, all straight-line distances, are rocky-cove beaches typical of this stretch of the Orihuela Costa. Sports infrastructure is well developed: Villamartín Golf at 3.1 km, Sport Center Montepiedra at 3.6 km and Snatch Fitness Center at 4.1 km cover both golf and general training. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 3.3 km and Real Club Náutico at 6.9 km, serve boating interests. For electric vehicle owners, three charging options exist within 2.2 km, including an Ionity hub at 0.6 km. Public transport in the area consists of 9 lines with 50 stops, connecting La Zenia with surrounding towns, though frequencies outside the summer season are limited and most residents use a car for longer trips.
The map shows the apartment's position relative to the La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre, the nearby coves of the Orihuela Costa and the three surrounding golf courses. Distances shown are straight-line; the flat terrain means walking routes to the beach and shops are short and level.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
La Zenia forms part of Orihuela Costa, the southernmost coastal zone of the province of Alicante, bordering the Region of Murcia. Its position between two urban poles, Torrevieja to the north and the Murcia metropolitan area 36 km to the south-west, gives it a dual orientation for services, employment and airport access. The area is known for its density of residential tourism, its golf courses and the La Zenia Boulevard retail centre. Within the Costa Blanca's property market, Orihuela Costa occupies a mid-priced segment: above inland Murcia municipalities, below the premium enclaves of the northern Costa Blanca. The proximity of three golf courses and two marinas places the apartment within the recreational core of the southern Costa Blanca.
Distances in this section are straight-line (as the crow flies); actual road distances can be longer. The sea is the closest amenity: the nearest beach lies 0.7 km away, with two more coves within 0.9 km. Three golf courses, Villamartín at 3.0 km, Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 4.0 km and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 4.3 km, position the apartment centrally for golfers. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 42 km away in a straight line, the primary gateway for international arrivals; Valencia (VLC) at roughly 175 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) at roughly 361 km are secondary options. Regional cities, Murcia at 36 km, Elche at 38 km and Cartagena at 42 km, are all within an hour's drive by road. Day-to-day accessibility is the strongest point: the shopping centre at 250 metres and the dense cluster of restaurants, pharmacies and banks within 2 km mean that a car is optional for most daily needs, though it remains useful for golf, marinas and airport transfers.

The climate data indicates a typical southern Costa Blanca profile: average monthly temperatures range from 11°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual average of 18.9°C. This places the area among the warmer zones of mainland Spain, with mild winters that support year-round occupation. The swimming season extends to approximately five months, during which sea temperatures reach at least 20°C, generally from late May into October. The elevation is 22 metres above sea level with an average gradient of 2.6% towards the coast, meaning the walk to the beach is effectively flat and manageable for all ages. Rainfall is low by European standards, and the 32 local public holidays per year reflect a full calendar of regional traditions and festivities. For residents, this translates into outdoor living for most of the year, with the glazed terrace extending comfortable use of the outdoor space into the shoulder seasons.

The coastal strip near La Zenia consists of a series of small coves rather than long sandy expanses. Playa Cala Bosque and Playa Cala Cerrada, both 0.7 km away in a straight line, and Playa Cala Estaca at 0.9 km form the nearest bathing options, each within walking distance. For swimmers who prefer pool facilities, Costa Marina (1.8 km) and Swimming Pool La Caleta (2.0 km) offer alternatives. Golf is a defining recreational feature of the area: three courses, Club de Golf Villamartín (3.0 km), Club de Golf Las Ramblas de Orihuela (4.0 km) and Real Club de Golf Campoamor (4.3 km), lie within a short drive, making the location practical for regular play across multiple courses. Water sports and mooring facilities are available at Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (3.3 km) and Real Club Náutico (6.9 km). Fitness options include Sport Center Montepiedra (3.6 km) and Snatch Fitness Center (4.1 km). For walkers, the View Torrejieja viewpoint at 5.0 km provides an elevated perspective over the coastline.
