A detached villa set on a 203 m² plot in Orihuela Costa, Alicante, on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across approximately 119 m² of living space, arranged over two storeys with a terrace and a 75 m² solarium. It is sold fully furnished, with ducted air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and a private 3 x 6 m swimming pool. The villa is key-ready, and Orihuela Costa's beaches, golf courses and everyday amenities lie within a short drive. Alicante-Elche Airport sits roughly 34 km away as the crow flies.
Priced at €450,000 as a fixed asking price, this detached villa occupies a distinct segment of the southern Costa Blanca market. The nearest comparable offerings in the dataset are apartments: Palangre Beach in Torrevieja from €160,000, Sun & Center (also key-ready) in Torrevieja from €169,000, and Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso from €227,000. Against these, the villa commands a premium of roughly €220,000 to €290,000 over the entry prices, a difference that buys a private plot, a private pool, a solarium, three bathrooms and the detached status itself. For buyers weighing apartment versus villa on this coast, the trade-off is concrete. Apartments in the Torrevieja developments offer lower purchase prices, communal pools and generally lower maintenance responsibility, but shared facilities and neighbours in the same building. The villa offers full control over the outdoor space, no community rules for the pool, and a layout suited to guests or year-round family living, offset by sole responsibility for pool and garden maintenance on a compact 203 m² plot. Locationally, Orihuela Costa sits marginally south of Torrevieja's urban centre, which shifts the amenity focus from city-beach living towards urbanisation and golf living: three courses within about 8 to 10 km, a Blue Flag cove coastline, and one of the region's larger shopping centres at La Zenia. Access to Alicante-Elche Airport (about 34 km straight-line) is comparable for both areas. The recorded construction year of 1970 places this property in a different category from the new-build comparables, which carry modern construction guarantees and current energy standards. The refurbished interiors and installed comfort systems (ducted air conditioning, underfloor bathroom heating) narrow the practical gap, but a technical survey remains the standard precaution for an older structure. For buyers prioritising private outdoor space and immediate usability over new-build warranties, the villa's positioning in this local market is coherent; for those prioritising guarantees and communal amenities, the apartment developments listed above are the relevant alternatives.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Orihuela Costa sits on the Alicante coastline close to the border with Murcia, surrounded by established residential urbanisations and golf courses. Within 2 km of the villa there are 49 restaurants, 17 cafés, 5 pharmacies, 7 banks and 4 dentists, which places daily services within walking or short driving distance. The nearest marina, Real Club Náutico, lies 5.5 km away in a straight line.
The villa is arranged over two floors, with one bedroom on the ground floor, three bathrooms with underfloor heating, and an open-plan kitchen connected to the living room. Outdoor space includes a private terrace, a 75 m² solarium and a private 3 x 6 m pool. Ducted air conditioning and full furnishing mean the house can be used immediately after completion of the purchase.
This is not a new-build project but an existing, key-ready home, with the stated year of completion recorded as 1970. The interior, shown in the photographs, has been modernised with a contemporary kitchen and walk-in showers. Buyers should treat any delivery or refurbishment dates as indicative and verify the current condition during a viewing.
The plot measures 203 m² and the built living area approximately 119 m², which limits garden space around the private pool. The property is a detached villa without communal facilities. No information is available about an energy label, storage rooms, or the exact parking arrangement beyond private parking. The year of construction (1970) means structural and installation checks are advisable.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A retired couple planning full-time residence on the coast will find the ground-floor bedroom and bathroom, underfloor heating and ducted air conditioning relevant for year-round comfort, while the compact 119 m² layout keeps maintenance manageable. A family with children or regular guests benefits from the three bedrooms and three bathrooms, so the house does not become congested during visits. Buyers seeking a second home that works from day one will note that the villa is delivered fully furnished and key-ready, allowing use in the first season without renovation works. The private pool and solarium support the outdoor routine that draws many northern Europeans to the Costa Blanca, without dependence on communal facilities or their associated rules and fees. The location also suits buyers who want services within reach but not on the doorstep. With dozens of restaurants and cafés within 2 km, the setting is livelier than an inland village, yet the villa's position within a residential urbanisation is calmer than central Torrevieja. Golf players are a two-digit drive from three courses: La Finca (8.2 km), Villamartín (8.3 km) and Campoamor (9.9 km), all measured in a straight line. What the property does not offer is space for large-scale entertaining on the plot or extensive gardening; the 203 m² plot is largely occupied by the house and pool. Buyers wanting land, outbuildings or new-build warranties should compare carefully against newer developments in the region before deciding.
The interior finishing shown in the available photographs is contemporary: a modern kitchen integrated with the dining area, walk-in showers in the bathrooms and a bedroom fitted with a double bed and television. The bathrooms include underfloor heating, a comfort feature not always found in properties at this price level on the Costa Blanca. Ducted air conditioning serves the whole house through ceiling grilles rather than split units, which is quieter and visually cleaner. The villa is sold fully furnished, which reduces the practical threshold of moving in: appliances, furniture and fittings are included in the sale. Buyers should nonetheless inventory precisely which items are included before signing, as "fully furnished" can vary in scope between transactions. Structurally, the recorded year of completion of 1970 means the property originates from an older building period, and the modern interiors visible in the photographs indicate refurbishment at some stage. For an objective assessment of build quality, a technical survey is the standard step: it checks the roof, damp, electrical installation and plumbing, points that matter more in a 1970s property than in a new build with guarantees. Outdoor elements are concrete and verifiable: a 75 m² solarium on the roof, a private terrace, a 3 x 6 m pool and private parking. The two-storey layout with 119 m² of living area gives an efficient footprint; the solarium effectively adds substantial outdoor surface without enlarging the plot. No energy performance certificate details are available in the data, so running costs should be estimated separately based on the ducted system and the property's insulation, ideally confirmed during a viewing.
The villa is offered at a fixed asking price of €450,000, not as part of a price-list development. That price reflects a detached property type with a private pool in a consolidated coastal location, positioned above the apartment offerings in nearby Torrevieja (from €160,000 and €169,000) and at roughly double the entry price of apartments in Urbanización El Raso (from €227,000). The purchase includes the full furnishing, ducted air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and the private pool. Availability is immediate in principle, as the home is key-ready; the usual caveat applies that any handover date is indicative until contracts are signed.
Daily life in and around this villa follows the rhythm typical of Orihuela Costa's residential urbanisations. Mornings can begin on the terrace or the solarium, which at 75 m² functions as an additional outdoor room, suitable for sunbathing, dining or simply overlooking the surrounding low-rise neighbourhood. The private 3 x 6 m pool sits on the 203 m² plot, close to the house, which keeps outdoor living compact and easy to maintain. Inside, the layout is practical for both permanent residence and holiday use. With three bedrooms and three bathrooms, the house accommodates a family or guests without scheduling conflicts around the bathrooms; one ground-floor bedroom and bathroom combination also works well for those who prefer to avoid stairs on a daily basis. The open-plan kitchen and living room form a single space of roughly 119 m² of living area, which keeps the interior sociable and uncomplicated. The surrounding area supports an everyday routine without long journeys. Within 2 km there are 49 restaurants, 17 cafés, 5 pharmacies, 7 banks and 4 dentists, a density of services that reflects the established, partly international character of Orihuela Costa. Several supermarket and retail zones typical of the area are similarly close by car. Outside the summer months the neighbourhood quietens considerably. Many properties in the area serve as second homes, so population and activity vary with the season, busier in July and August, calmer from late autumn to spring. For year-round residents this means quieter streets in winter and a wider choice of open venues in summer. The 13 public transport lines and 50 stops in the wider area provide a basic bus network, though a car remains the most practical mode of transport for most errands.
Orihuela Costa is a consolidated coastal strip between Torrevieja and the Murcia border, built around residential urbanisations, commercial centres and golf courses. The villa's immediate environment is residential, with low-rise housing rather than high-density apartment blocks. Daily provision is well covered: the 49 restaurants, 17 cafés, 5 pharmacies, 7 banks and 4 dentists within a 2 km radius form one of the denser amenity clusters on this stretch of coast. Sporting facilities within reach include Club de Taekwondo Draco Kwan at 2.6 km, CF Torrevieja at 4.6 km and the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina sports centre at 4.9 km, all measured in a straight line. For boat owners or marina visitors, Real Club Náutico lies 5.5 km away. Electric-vehicle drivers can charge at Iberdrola Oasis Center (6.6 km) or the Ionity hub at La Zenia (9.3 km). The wider region is anchored by three large cities: Murcia at 35 km with around 463,000 inhabitants, Elche at 41 km with roughly 235,000, and Cartagena at 39 km with nearly 219,000. Each is reachable within an hour's drive and offers hospitals, universities, shopping and cultural amenities beyond what the immediate coast provides. The climate supports outdoor use of the property for most of the year, with monthly average temperatures ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer and an annual average of 18.8°C.

Within the southern Costa Blanca, Orihuela Costa occupies the coastal edge of the Orihuela municipality, bordering the Murcia region. It functions as a residential and holiday zone between Torrevieja to the north and the Mar Menor lagoon to the south. Compared with central Torrevieja, the area is lower in density and more oriented towards villa urbanisations and golf; compared with inland Alicante province, it is distinctly tourist-oriented and international. The villa's position at the heart of this strip places it within a 10 km radius of three golf courses, a Blue Flag coastline and one of the province's main commercial centres, while Alicante city and airport remain under an hour away by road.
Accessibility is one of the stronger points of this location. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) lies about 34 km away as the crow flies, roughly a 35-minute drive under normal conditions, which keeps international travel straightforward for second-home owners and visiting guests. Valencia Airport is 166 km away in a straight line and Málaga-Costa del Sol about 365 km, making Alicante the natural gateway. Beaches along the Orihuela Costa shoreline are a short drive from the villa; the coast here is a sequence of coves and sandy bays connected by the coastal road. The three golf courses, La Finca at 8.2 km, Villamartín at 8.3 km and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 9.9 km (straight-line distances), cluster within a ten-minute drive radius. Public transport exists in the form of 13 bus lines with 50 stops in the area, connecting the urbanisations with Torrevieja and the commercial centres. However, frequencies are modest and geared to local needs, so a car is the practical choice for most residents. Private parking on the plot is included with the villa. Road access runs via the AP-7 motorway and the N-332 coastal road, which link the area northwards to Alicante and southwards to the Mar Menor and Cartagena.

The climate data for this area shows an average annual temperature of 18.8°C, with monthly averages between 12°C in the coolest months and 26°C in the warmest. Winters are therefore mild by northern European standards: frost is rare and daytime temperatures generally allow outdoor living, which is when the solarium and south-facing outdoor spaces earn their keep. Summers are warm and dry, with the swimming season extending to about five months in which sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above, roughly May through September. Elevation is recorded at -4 m, meaning the terrain sits essentially at sea level. The practical consequence is a flat environment: no steep climbs between the house, the car and local streets, which simplifies walking and cycling for all ages. The immediate coastline consists of sandy coves and rocky outcrops typical of southern Alicante province, while further inland the landscape rises towards the agricultural plains and hills around the Segura river, where the La Finca golf course is set. With around 32 local public holidays per year in the region, the calendar is punctuated by fiestas and markets, giving residents regular occasions for outdoor events. Rainfall is concentrated in a few autumn and spring months; the remainder of the year is predominantly sunny, matching the coastal-living expectations of most international buyers.

The Orihuela Costa coastline is known for a string of sandy coves, Cala Cerrada, Cala Bosque, La Zenia beach and Punta Prima among them, most of which hold Blue Flag status in normal years, awarded for water quality and services. The beaches lie within a few minutes' drive of the villa, offering both family-friendly sandy stretches and smaller rocky coves for snorkelling. Golf is the second recreational pillar of the area. Three 18-hole courses sit within roughly 8 to 10 km as the crow flies: Club de Golf La Finca (8.2 km), Club de Golf Villamartín (8.3 km) and Real Club de Golf Campoamor (9.9 km). This concentration makes the location workable for regular players who want variety without long drives. Water sports and marina life centre on Real Club Náutico, 5.5 km away in a straight line. For indoor and organised sport, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina (4.9 km) and CF Torrevieja (4.6 km) provide facilities within a short radius. Everyday recreation also happens close to home: the private 3 x 6 m pool covers daily swimming, while the 75 m² solarium offers space for sunbathing and open-air dining without leaving the plot. The 49 restaurants within 2 km mean that eating out, from beach chiringuitos in summer to year-round local kitchens, is part of the practical routine rather than an excursion.
