This completed two-bedroom townhouse is situated in Montemar, a residential district within the Alicante urban area on the Costa Blanca. Built in approximately 1970, the property offers 88 m² of built living space on a 67 m² plot, arranged over two floors with a west-facing orientation. The surrounding neighbourhood is urban in character, with a supermarket within roughly 360 metres and daily amenities reachable on foot. Beaches such as Platja de l'Albufereta and Platja de l'Almadrava lie between 1.1 and 1.3 kilometres away. The asking price is €159,950, with two bedrooms, one bathroom, air conditioning and off-road parking among the listed features.
Within its price segment, this Montemar townhouse competes primarily with new-build apartments in Torrevieja. Apartments Palangre Beach starts at €160,000, effectively the same entry price, while Edificio Sun & Center starts at €169,000; both offer newer construction with corresponding energy standards and warranties, but in a resort town further from a major city. Oasis Laguna Phase II in Urbanización El Raso starts at €227,000, illustrating what a step up in budget buys in terms of specification and resort setting. The distinguishing factor here is location type: Montemar sits inside Alicante's urban area, giving residents city infrastructure, public transport with eleven stops nearby, a hospital within 2.2 kilometres and year-round services, whereas the Torrevieja and El Raso comparables sit in tourism-oriented zones with more seasonal rhythms. The counterweight is age: a circa-1970 townhouse will not match the finish, insulation or certification of post-2020 new-builds, and its single bathroom limits its market compared with two-bathroom competitors. Space per euro also differs: at roughly €1,820 per square metre with a private solarium and off-road parking, the property offers a house format at an apartment price, whereas the comparables deliver apartment living. Buyers choosing between these options are effectively choosing between newer, warrantied apartments in resort towns and an older house format within a functioning city, with beach access comparable in all cases, since Platja de l'Albufereta is little further than the walk from many Torrevieja developments to the sea.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Montemar forms part of the northern coastal belt of Alicante city, an established urban area rather than a resort enclave. A supermarket sits within a five-minute walk, and the nearest beaches lie just over a kilometre to the east. Public transport is available via multiple bus stops in the area, reducing dependence on a car for daily errands. The setting combines city proximity with direct access to the coastline.
The property suits a household seeking a compact, ready-to-occupy home or a low-maintenance second residence. Two double bedrooms, a separate kitchen, a utility room and a private terrace cover essential functions, while off-road parking and a communal pool add practical value. The 88 m² footprint indicates modest spatial expectations rather than expansive family living.
This is not a new-build project. The townhouse dates from around 1970 and is recorded as completed and available. Buyers should therefore expect construction standards, insulation and fittings consistent with a property of this age, subject to any renovations carried out over the years. No phased delivery or construction risk applies.
The property offers two bedrooms and one bathroom, which limits suitability for larger households. There is no private pool; pool access is communal. Parking is open-air rather than a garage. There is no elevator indicated, and the two-storey layout with internal stairs may not suit buyers requiring step-free access. Energy efficiency data is not published.
The property aligns with several recognisable situations. A retired couple seeking a manageable, walkable base near the Mediterranean coast could function well here: two bedrooms, one bathroom, air conditioning and shops within walking distance reduce daily demands. A single buyer or couple purchasing a second home for seasonal use would find the solarium and communal pool adequate for holiday stays without the upkeep of a large garden. Investors targeting the rental segment may note that the price per square metre sits below comparable Torrevieja new-builds, though the 1970s construction and one-bathroom configuration should be weighed against tenant expectations. Buyers requiring three or more bedrooms, a private pool, a garage or step-free access will find the property does not meet those needs. Similarly, households wanting a new-build warranty or modern energy certification should look elsewhere, as no efficiency label is published. The property is most coherent as a pragmatic purchase: an established home in a functional urban location, bought for use rather than for contemporary specification.
The property was constructed around 1970, and its condition should be assessed against that era's building practice rather than new-build standards. Interior photo material shows a fitted kitchen with modern cabinets, oven and refrigerator, a bright bedroom with decorative finishes, a living room with fireplace and television point, and a dedicated storage room with racking, indicating that refurbishment has taken place at least in parts. Air conditioning is installed in the lounge and in the master bedroom, covering the two principal living spaces, though the second bedroom and bathroom lack a dedicated unit. Built-in wardrobes in the master bedroom provide storage on the upper floor, supplemented by the utility and storage rooms on the ground level. The solarium is laid with artificial grass, a low-maintenance surface suited to the climate, and benefits from mountain views to the west. The front garden is fully tiled for ease of upkeep and doubles as off-road parking. Structural elements, plumbing, electrics and window insulation should be verified through survey, as these typically reflect the original construction period unless documented renovation exists. No energy performance certificate details are available in the published data, so buyers concerned with heating and cooling costs should request this documentation directly.
The asking price is €159,950 for the completed property. At 88 m² of built area, this equates to roughly €1,820 per square metre. Within the comparable set, Apartments Palangre Beach in Torrevieja starts at €160,000 and Edificio Sun & Center at €169,000, placing this townhouse at the lower end of the regional price band, while Oasis Laguna Phase II starts higher at €227,000. Availability is immediate, as the property is completed; no off-plan payment structure applies. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs and any modernisation.
Daily life in this townhouse follows the rhythm of an established Alicante neighbourhood. The layout works vertically: a covered entrance terrace leads into a lounge and dining area with a fitted kitchen to the rear, opening onto a patio; upstairs are the two bedrooms, a shower room and access to a covered terrace and private solarium. The west-facing orientation means the solarium receives afternoon and evening sun, and photo material confirms open views towards the mountains, making the upper level the natural place to end the day. The ground floor, with its utility room and rear patio, handles the practical side of household routine, laundry, storage and cooking. Errands are largely walkable: a supermarket sits roughly 360 metres away and a pharmacy within 1.4 kilometres, so a car is not strictly necessary for shopping. The communal pool functions as the property's main outdoor leisure facility, given the absence of a private garden of significant size. The 67 m² plot is mostly allocated to a tiled front area providing parking. Evenings can be spent on the solarium or on a short walk towards the coast, with Platja de l'Albufereta about 1.1 kilometres away. Two restaurants are recorded within a two-kilometre radius, so dining options within immediate walking distance are limited and residents often travel slightly further into Alicante city for variety.
Montemar sits within the continuous urban fabric of Alicante, so the surrounding environment is residential and built-up rather than rural. The practical effect is short distances: the nearest supermarket is roughly 360 metres away, a pharmacy 1.4 kilometres, and a hospital 2.2 kilometres, meaning healthcare access is within a short drive or bus ride. Public transport consists of two bus lines serving eleven stops in the area, which supports car-free living for routine trips. The neighbourhood records only two restaurants within a two-kilometre radius, so evening entertainment generally involves travelling into central Alicante. Recreational walking is available along the nearby coastline, with the beaches of l'Albufereta and l'Almadrava about 1.1 to 1.3 kilometres distant. An electric vehicle charging point lies 1.6 kilometres away. The streetscape is that of an older, consolidated district: narrow residential roads, low-rise blocks and townhouse rows, with traffic levels typical of a city suburb rather than a quiet village.
The map shows the property's position within Alicante's northern urban belt: the coastline with l'Albufereta and l'Almadrava beaches lies just over a kilometre east, the supermarket sits a few minutes' walk away, and the golf courses of Bonalba and El Plantío appear further inland. The layout illustrates a walkable daily radius with regional connections by road.

Montemar's position within Alicante city places it in a different category from resort developments further south along the Costa Blanca, such as Torrevieja or the Orihuela Costa. It offers city infrastructure, public transport and year-round services rather than a tourism-dependent environment. Within Alicante's northern coastal strip, it sits between the city centre and the beach settlements of l'Albufereta and El Campello, giving residents access to both urban amenities and the coast. The trade-off is a denser built environment without the resort facilities or purpose-built landscaping found in modern enclaves.
Distances from the property are moderate to short for daily needs and longer for regional travel. Beaches: Platja de l'Albufereta at 1.1 km and Platja de l'Almadrava at 1.3 km, both walkable or a short drive; Cala dels Jueus lies 2.2 km away. Golf: the nearest course is Club de Golf Bonalba at 8 km, roughly a ten-to-twelve-minute drive; Club de Golf El Plantío is 11 km and Club de Golf Alenda 20 km, so golf is accessible but not on the doorstep. Alicante city centre with its full range of services is a short journey by car or bus. The nearest major airport is Alicante-Elche, reachable by road in well under an hour; the property is not positioned as an airport-adjacent location, and regional airports such as Málaga or Gibraltar involve considerably longer journeys. A car is useful for beach-hopping, golf and airport transfers but is not essential for daily errands.

The Alicante coastal climate is one of the location's structural advantages. Historical data records approximately 3,935 sunshine hours per year and an average annual temperature of 15°C, with a seasonal range of roughly 7°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts around four months, typically June through September, which frames how the nearby beaches are used. The terrain in Montemar itself is essentially flat and urban, at sea level, so walking and cycling involve no significant gradients; the mountain views visible from the solarium belong to the inland skyline rather than the immediate setting. The west-facing orientation delivers afternoon and evening sun to the terrace and solarium, favouring sunset use over breakfast outdoors. Air conditioning in the lounge and master bedroom addresses summer heat, while winter mildness means heating demands are comparatively low.

Coastal recreation within easy reach includes Platja de l'Albufereta (1.1 km) and Platja de l'Almadrava (1.3 km), both sandy urban beaches backed by the city's northern districts, with the smaller Cala dels Jueus at 2.2 km offering a quieter cove option. Beach visits require a walk or short drive rather than direct frontage. For golfers, three courses operate within a 20-kilometre radius: Club de Golf Bonalba (8 km) is the closest, followed by El Plantío (11 km) and Alenda (20 km), giving reasonable variety for regular play. Sports facilities in the wider area include equestrian and municipal sports centres within about three kilometres. Within the property itself, recreation centres on the private solarium and the communal pool area, which serves as the principal outdoor amenity during the warmer months.
