Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment occupies an inland position within Orihuela Costa's urban landscape, situated approximately 400 metres from the nearest coastal point at Cala Mosca. The surrounding area is characterised by established residential development with comprehensive local amenities. Its elevation of 20 metres above sea level provides a slight rise towards the coastline, with a moderate 4% gradient to the beach.
This two-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration accommodates the needs of small households seeking either primary residence or secondary accommodation. The layout supports daily living requirements with functional spaces for rest, hygiene, and communal activities. Access to communal gardens and swimming facilities extends the usable living area beyond the apartment's interior dimensions.
The property is a completed building dating from 1970, representing established construction within the region's development history. As a fully realised project, all construction phases have concluded, with the property in its final state of completion. The building has undergone its full development cycle without pending construction elements or planning modifications.
The property does not offer private parking facilities. As an apartment within a larger residential complex, it lacks standalone garden space. The building's age means it does not incorporate contemporary energy-efficient construction standards typical of new developments. The inland position removes direct sea views from certain aspects of the property.
This apartment would suit individuals or couples seeking a Mediterranean residence either for permanent relocation or as a secondary home. The provision of two bedrooms makes it suitable for small families or those requiring occasional accommodation for guests. Its established urban location would appeal to those who prefer living within a community environment rather than an isolated setting. The proximity to amenities without requiring a vehicle for daily essentials would benefit residents who prefer walkable neighbourhoods. For those splitting time between countries, the established nature of the building and community offers stability during periods of absence. The presence of golf courses within a short distance would also appeal to those with recreational interests in the sport.
The apartment features traditional construction methods characteristic of properties from the 1970s Mediterranean development period. The bathrooms include modern fixtures with one featuring a Finnish sauna, representing an upgrade to the original specifications. The living areas connect to an outdoor terrace, providing indoor-outdoor living space typical of the region. Kitchen facilities are fully integrated within the living area, following contemporary open-plan concepts despite the building's age. The communal areas including swimming pool and gardens are maintained to a standard consistent with established residential complexes in the region. The property represents solid construction of its era with practical rather than luxury finishes throughout.
The apartment is offered at €317,550, representing the entry point for this particular property within the development. Pricing reflects the established nature of the building, its location within Orihuela Costa, and the provision of two bedrooms with bathroom facilities. The cost includes access to communal amenities such as the gardens and swimming pool area. This price point positions the property within the mid-range segment of the local market, offering a balance between urban convenience and coastal proximity without the premium associated with new developments or frontline beach locations.
Daily life in this apartment centres around the balance between urban convenience and coastal proximity. Morning routines might begin with breakfast on the covered terrace before exploring the immediate neighbourhood where supermarkets, pharmacies, and banks are within walking distance. The communal gardens and swimming pool area serve as extensions of the living space, particularly during warmer months. The property functions effectively as a year-round residence with all essential amenities nearby, whilst also serving as a comfortable holiday base with beaches and recreational facilities within short driving distance. The established nature of the building means the community environment is stable with permanent residents and seasonal occupants creating a balanced residential atmosphere.
The apartment's position within Orihuela Costa places residents within an established urban environment where daily necessities are within convenient reach. A supermarket at 625 metres and pharmacy at 632 metres mean essential shopping can be accomplished without vehicle use. Medical facilities are available at the nearby hospital 1.9 kilometres distant. The urban setting provides numerous dining options with 49 restaurants within a 2-kilometre radius, alongside 17 cafés for social gathering. Banking services are readily available with seven branches in the vicinity. The location supports both vehicle-dependent and pedestrian lifestyles, with local infrastructure developed to serve permanent residents rather than purely seasonal tourism.

When compared to similar properties in the region, this Orihuela Costa apartment occupies a middle ground between prime frontline developments and more distant inland options. Properties such as APARTMENTS PALANGRE BEACH in Torrevieja (from €160,000) and EDIFICIO SUN & CENTER - KEY READY in Torrevieja (from €169,000) offer lower price points but are situated further north along the coastline. OASIS LAGUNA 2 - FASE II in Urbanización El Raso (from €227,000) represents a newer development but lacks the established community feel of the 1970s building in Orihuela Costa. The apartment's location provides more convenient access to Murcia (35km) than properties further north in Torrevieja, which must navigate to either Alicante or Murcia for major urban services. The property's position within a mature development offers stability and established infrastructure that newer developments may still be establishing, though potentially without the most contemporary energy-efficient construction standards.
