This detached villa is situated in the PAU 8 area of Orihuela Costa, in the south of the province of Alicante. The property offers 331 m² of built space across four double bedrooms and three bathrooms, and was completed in 2000. The asking price is fixed at €409,000. The home is key-ready and sold unfurnished, with central heating, a garage and a private terrace. Some minor renovation work is expected. La Zenia Boulevard and the local beaches lie within short reach of the property, and the wider area offers extensive retail, dining and leisure infrastructure.
Within its immediate market, this villa competes in a different segment from the new-build apartment offerings nearby. In Torrevieja, apartments at Palangre Beach start from €160,000 and the key-ready units at Edificio Sun & Center from €169,000; in Urbanización El Raso, Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II starts from €227,000. Those projects deliver modern finishes, communal facilities and developer warranties, but in apartment formats with a fraction of this villa's 331 m² of space. At €409,000, this property offers roughly double the entry price of the Raso apartments in exchange for a detached structure, four double bedrooms, three bathrooms, a garage and central heating, offset by a fair condition rating and renovation works. Buyers weighing the two routes are effectively choosing between turnkey new-build convenience and volume with refurbishment potential. Locationally, PAU 8 sits closer to La Zenia Boulevard than El Raso, which lies further inland near Guardamar. Compared with central Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa is lower-density and more residential in character, with the same access to the coastal road network and to the golf cluster of Villamartín, Campoamor and La Finca. The provincial context matters as well: the median income in the province is recorded at €15,750, and price levels on the southern Costa Blanca remain below those of Marbella or the central Costa del Sol, roughly 365 km away as the crow flies. For a buyer focused on space per euro rather than contemporary specification, this villa occupies a defensible position in the local market, provided the renovation budget is planned realistically.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa stands in PAU 8, a residential zone of Orihuela Costa close to the border with Torrevieja. La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre and the Mediterranean beaches are nearby. The location sits between two larger urban centres: Murcia lies 35 km away as the crow flies and Elche 41 km. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 34 km distant in a straight line.
With four double bedrooms, three bathrooms and 331 m² of living space, the property suits households that need generous room distribution. Central heating, a garage and a terrace with views add practical value. The home is delivered unfurnished and in fair condition, which allows buyers to determine their own finishing level within the existing structure.
This is an existing home, completed in 2000, not a new-build project. The property is key-ready, meaning it can be transferred in its current state. The condition is recorded as fair, and the source data indicates that minor renovation work is required. No construction phase, developer warranty or delivery schedule applies to this purchase.
The property is sold unfurnished and is recorded in fair condition, with minor renovations still needed before it is fully move-in ready. There is no mention of a private pool, sea view or garden in the available data. The residence dates from 2000, so installations and finishes are of that period. Buyers should budget for modernisation works beyond the asking price.
This property fits a buyer seeking substantial living space on a single title rather than an apartment in a shared community. A family relocating permanently to the Costa Blanca South can use the four double bedrooms and three bathrooms without feeling constrained, and the nearby schools of Orihuela Costa and Torrevieja serve year-round residents. A second-home buyer who hosts family and friends in extended periods will value the room distribution, the garage and the proximity of La Zenia Boulevard for off-season convenience. The home is less suited to buyers wanting a turnkey, contemporary finish: the condition is fair, the interior dates from 2000 and minor renovation is explicitly noted, so an immediate-move-in buyer should expect to carry out works first. Investors comparing against new-build apartments from €160,000 will find this a different product: a larger, detached asset at a higher entry price, where value depends on renovation execution and rental strategy rather than developer pricing. Buyers who want a pool or direct sea view should note that neither appears in the available data. Households that rely fully on public transport should verify specific connections, although 13 lines and 50 stops indicate a workable network. Finally, those planning long trips through Alicante-Elche airport, roughly 34 km away as the crow flies, will find the location practical for regular international travel.
The villa was completed in 2000, and its condition is recorded as fair. The photographic record shows a bathroom with a bathtub and a window, bedrooms with simple iron bed frames and nightstands, a bedroom with a television and dresser with a view towards a bathroom, an outdoor patio where the air-conditioning units are placed, and a terrace with tiled flooring overlooking the town. This indicates a habitable but dated finish: the sanitary ware, tiling and joinery reflect the construction period rather than current market standards. Central heating is installed, which is a meaningful feature on the southern Costa Blanca, where many properties of this age rely on standalone electric heaters. Air conditioning is present in the form of exterior units on the patio, implying split-unit installations in the living spaces. The property is sold unfurnished, so no furniture or appliances transfer with the sale. The condition label, combined with the explicit note on minor renovations, suggests works such as kitchen or bathroom modernisation, repainting and updating of floors, though the exact scope can only be determined by inspection. The 331 m² of built area gives buyers volume to work with: renovation budgets can be spread over time and rooms can be upgraded in phases. The garage is a solid, functional element of the property. Structurally, the buyer's surveyor should confirm the state of the roof, damp proofing and installations, as with any home of this age on the Spanish coast.
The asking price is €409,000 and is a fixed price for this existing home, not a starting price. For that amount, the buyer acquires 331 m² of built space with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, central heating, a garage and a terrace. Measured against comparable new-build projects in the wider area, apartments in Torrevieja start from around €160,000 to €169,000, while properties in Urbanización El Raso start from approximately €227,000. A detached villa of this size occupies a different segment from those apartment products. Buyers should factor in the cost of the indicated minor renovations, which are not included in the purchase price.
Daily life around this villa revolves around the established residential fabric of PAU 8, a district of Orihuela Costa developed around the turn of the millennium. The area functions year-round, with an international but permanently resident population rather than a purely seasonal one. Within two kilometres, the data records 49 restaurants, 17 cafés, 5 pharmacies, 7 banks and 4 dentists, which means routine errands and eating out rarely require a long journey. The commercial anchor of the neighbourhood is La Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres on this stretch of coast, offering retail, dining and entertainment a short drive from the door. The rhythm of the day can be structured around the coast: morning walks on the local beaches, errands in the immediate vicinity, and evenings on the terrace, which the photographic material shows with tiled flooring and a view over the surrounding townscape. The villa itself, with four double bedrooms and three bathrooms, supports both permanent family living and extended-stay use with guests. The property includes a garage, an asset in an area where on-street parking comes under pressure in summer. Some interior rooms shown in the photographs, such as the bathroom with tub and the bedrooms, reflect the 2000 construction date and will need updating to match contemporary tastes. The patio area, currently housing air-conditioning units, offers scope for reorganisation. Life here is car-based for most purposes, though the area is served by 13 public transport lines with 50 stops, which is a solid figure for a settlement of this size.
Orihuela Costa sits at the southern end of the Alicante province, immediately west of Torrevieja and a short distance from the Murcia regional border. The villa's position in PAU 8 places it within an established, fully serviced residential area: the two-kilometre radius counts 49 restaurants, 17 cafés, 5 pharmacies, 7 banks and 4 dentists. This density means that groceries, medical basics and everyday services do not depend on seasonal openings. La Zenia Boulevard, the dominant retail destination of the southern Costa Blanca, lies close by. For sport and leisure, the data lists Club de Taekwondo Draco Kwan at 2.6 km, CF Torrevieja at 4.6 km and the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina at 4.9 km, all straight-line distances. The Real Club Náutico marina sits 5.5 km away. Electric-vehicle owners can charge at the Iberdrola Oasis Center, 6.6 km distant, or at Ionity La Zenia at 9.3 km. Transport is car-oriented in practice, but 13 public transport lines with 50 stops serve the wider area, giving non-drivers a fallback for Torrevieja and surrounding districts. The area is busy in the summer months and quieter outside the season, a pattern typical of this stretch of coast.
The map shows the villa's position in PAU 8, Orihuela Costa, directly in the coastal belt between Torrevieja and the Murcia border.

Orihuela Costa occupies the southernmost coastal strip of the Alicante province, immediately before the border with the Murcia region. Torrevieja, the nearest large town, adjoins it to the north-east. The villa's location in PAU 8 places it between the coastal urbanisations and the commercial hub of La Zenia. Within the wider region, Murcia (35 km straight-line, around 463,000 inhabitants) and Cartagena (39 km, around 219,000) lie to the south-west, while Elche (41 km, around 235,000) lies to the north-east along the route to Alicante. This positions the property at the junction of two regional economies, which broadens employment, healthcare and cultural access for permanent residents.
Accessibility is one of the practical strengths of this location. Alicante-Elche airport lies approximately 34 km away as the crow flies, making international connections straightforward for a second-home buyer. Valencia airport is roughly 166 km away and Malaga-Costa del Sol about 365 km, both realistic alternatives for longer routes. By road, the AP-7 motorway and the N-332 coastal road pass close to Orihuela Costa, connecting the area with Torrevieja, Cartagena (39 km straight-line) and Murcia (35 km). Golfers can reach Club de Golf La Finca at 8.2 km, Club de Golf Villamartín at 8.3 km and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 9.9 km, all measured in a straight line. The marina at Real Club Náutico is 5.5 km distant. Beach access is close, as the property sits in the coastal belt of Orihuela Costa. Actual road distances are longer than the straight-line figures cited. Within the neighbourhood itself, most daily needs are covered on foot or by a short drive, with the amenity density recorded within a two-kilometre radius.

The climate data for this area shows an average annual temperature of 18.8 °C, with monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in winter to 26 °C in summer. That range characterises a classic Mediterranean coastal regime: mild winters that rarely require more than supplementary heating, and warm but not extreme summers. The installed central heating covers the cooler months of December through February. The swimming season lasts approximately five months, during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20 °C, roughly from late May into October. The elevation is recorded at -4 metres relative to sea level, meaning the terrain is flat and level, without slopes to negotiate on foot or by bike. There are 32 local public holidays per year, reflecting the Spanish calendar of national, regional and municipal observances. Rainfall concentrates in autumn, typical of the south-eastern Spanish coast, while the remainder of the year is predominantly dry and sunny. For residents, this translates into an outdoor-oriented rhythm for most of the year, with the terrace and patio of the villa in usable condition across the seasons.

Orihuela Costa is known for its chain of sandy coves and blue-flag beaches running from Punta Prima to Mil Palmeras, all within a short drive of PAU 8. The specific beach distances are not itemised in the available data, but the property's position in the coastal belt places the shoreline in the immediate vicinity. Recreational infrastructure in the data includes three golf courses within roughly ten kilometres: Club de Golf La Finca (8.2 km), Club de Golf Villamartín (8.3 km) and Real Club de Golf Campoamor (9.9 km), measured in straight lines. This concentration of courses is one of the defining features of the southern Costa Blanca. Water sports and mooring facilities are available at the Real Club Náutico marina, 5.5 km away. For indoor and organised sport, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina stands 4.9 km from the property. Evening and cultural leisure concentrates around La Zenia Boulevard and the restaurant strip of the coast, with the 49 restaurants within two kilometres providing year-round options. The salt lagoons of Torrevieja and La Mata, a short drive north, add walking and nature options to the recreation mix.
