This townhouse is located in Playa Flamenca, a coastal locality within Orihuela Costa in the province of Alicante, approximately 4 kilometres south of Torrevieja. The property is a single-storey, fully renovated home built in 1985, offering 80 m² built on a plot of approximately 150 m², with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a 60 m² front terrace, a 25 m² rear patio and a private solarium with sea views. The asking price is €204,000 and the property is completed and move-in ready, sold fully furnished. Playa Flamenca is an established residential area with shops, supermarkets, pharmacies and beaches within walking distance.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Playa Flamenca sits on the southern Costa Blanca, in the municipality of Orihuela, directly on the coast. The nearest beaches, Cala Estaca, Cala Mosca and Playa Cala Cerrada, lie between roughly 280 and 450 metres away. A supermarket is 240 metres away and a pharmacy 180 metres. Three golf courses are within 5 kilometres. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 40 minutes by car.
The property is arranged on one level, which suits buyers seeking practical daily living without stairs. Outdoor space is substantial relative to the built surface: a front terrace of approximately 60 m², a rear patio of around 25 m² with a summer kitchen and BBQ installation, and a 15 m² solarium with sea views. Air conditioning and a fireplace provide year-round climate control.
This is not a new-build project. The house was originally built in 1985 and has since been fully renovated. Construction status is completed and delivery is immediate upon purchase. Buyers should expect the character and structural conditions of a 1980s property that has been modernised, rather than new construction standards.
The property offers two bedrooms and one bathroom, not three as sometimes expected in this price bracket. There is no private garage; parking is on-street. There is no communal pool mentioned in the listing, and the usable living area (63 m²) is modest relative to the 80 m² built surface. Energy efficiency certification is not stated.

This property fits several recognisable situations. It suits a buyer seeking a walkable coastal base where a car is optional for daily errands, given the supermarket at 240 metres, pharmacy at 180 metres and multiple beaches under 500 metres away. It also suits those prioritising single-level living, whether for accessibility or simplicity, since the entire house is arranged on ground level. The combination of a large front terrace, rear patio with BBQ and a solarium with sea views appeals to buyers who plan to spend significant time outdoors across the extended warm season, which here includes a six-month swimming season with sea temperatures at or above 20°C. It can function as a permanent residence, supported by seven schools within 2 kilometres, 15 public transport lines and the full range of daily services in the neighbourhood. Alternatively, it works as a second home with rental potential, given demand for furnished coastal properties near beaches in Orihuela Costa. Buyers who require three or more bedrooms, a second bathroom, private parking or a communal pool should consider other options, as this property does not provide them. Similarly, those wanting new-build specifications, modern energy certification or a quieter, less urbanised setting may find the established 1980s fabric and busy summer streets of Playa Flamenca a mismatch. It is a property for practical, low-threshold coastal living rather than spaciousness or resort amenities.
The house was built in 1985 and has undergone a full renovation. Interior imagery shows a modern white kitchen with marble-effect worktops, a fitted utility room with washing machine and storage cabinets, and a living room finished with a fireplace and direct patio access. One bedroom is shown furnished with built-in wardrobe, as listed. The property is sold fully furnished, including kitchen furniture and appliances, with the exception of two round tables on the front terrace. Climate control combines air conditioning in the living area with a fireplace, covering both summer cooling and winter heating. Windows appear to be standard units; no specification of double glazing or thermal performance is provided in the listing. The solarium of approximately 15 m² and the terraces are private elements rather than communal facilities. Buyers should note the absence of stated details in several technical areas: no energy performance certificate rating is listed, no information is given on the roof or facade condition beyond the renovation claim, and the single bathroom configuration is a fixed constraint of the layout. As with any renovated 1980s property, an independent technical survey is advisable to verify electrical installations, plumbing and damp resistance, particularly given the coastal exposure at 23 to 37 metres above sea level, where salt air affects exterior joinery and metalwork over time. The overall impression from available material is a modest, functional finish aimed at move-in readiness rather than premium specification.
The asking price is €204,000 for a completed, furnished two-bedroom townhouse of 80 m² built (63 m² usable) on a 150 m² plot. In the immediate regional market, comparable new-build apartments in Torrevieja start from €160,000 to €169,000, while apartments at Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso start from €227,000. This property's price positions it between those segments, with its differentiating factors being the plot size, outdoor space and single-level layout rather than new construction. Prices should be treated as indicative and subject to negotiation and market movement.
Daily life here revolves around a compact, walkable neighbourhood. The house sits on a single level, opening onto a south-east facing front terrace of roughly 60 m², which receives morning sun. The interior follows a straightforward sequence: a first living room with fireplace and air conditioning, connected to a second living and dining area with an open-plan kitchen fitted with marble-look worktops and white cabinetry. A utility room with washing machine and storage cabinets supports practical household routines. At the rear, the 25 m² patio with summer kitchen and BBQ installation extends living outdoors for much of the year, consistent with the region's 3,844 recorded annual sunshine hours. Above, a 15 m² solarium with sea views offers a private outdoor retreat. The immediate surroundings are urban and established rather than resort-like: a supermarket 240 metres away, a pharmacy 180 metres, and within a 2-kilometre radius roughly 38 restaurants, 28 cafés, 18 banks, 16 pharmacies and 7 schools. The weekly Playa Flamenca market sells clothing, footwear, fresh produce and household goods. Beaches at Cala Estaca, Cala Mosca and Cala Cerrada are a short walk of 280 to 450 metres, making an evening swim or morning walk along the coves a realistic routine. With 15 public transport lines and 8 stops in the area, plus 8.7 km to the nearest hospital, the location supports both permanent residence and seasonal use. Outside the summer months the area remains serviceable year-round, as it forms part of the wider Orihuela Costa residential belt with a substantial permanent population.
The neighbourhood functions as an established residential area rather than a purpose-built resort. Within a 2-kilometre radius there are 38 restaurants, 28 cafés, 18 banks, 16 pharmacies and 7 schools, indicating a year-round service infrastructure. The weekly street market in Playa Flamenca adds a routine local element. Transport is well developed: 15 public transport lines serve the area through 8 stops, and Orihuela Miguel Hernández railway station lies 0.9 kilometres away, with Beniel at 6 kilometres and Callosa de Segura at 7.6 kilometres. Sports facilities are close at hand, including the Palacio del Agua aquatic centre at 0.6 kilometres, a fitness conditioning centre at 0.7 kilometres and the municipal sports complex at 1.2 kilometres. The nearest hospital is 9.7 kilometres away, a distance that requires a car or ambulance for emergency care. An electric vehicle charging point sits 409 metres from the property. During summer months the population of the wider Orihuela municipality, recorded at 84,560 residents, expands considerably with tourism, increasing traffic and demand on beach parking. Outside the high season the area retains its services and a stable resident community.
The map shows the property's position within the built-up fabric of Playa Flamenca, between the coast road and the N-332.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Playa Flamenca occupies a middle position within Orihuela Costa, south of Torrevieja (4 km) and north of Punta Prima and the La Zenia Boulevard commercial centre. The locality belongs administratively to Orihuela, whose urban core lies inland, meaning municipal services are distributed across the wider 365.4 km² municipality. Murcia, the regional capital with 462,979 inhabitants, lies 19 km away, making it closer than Alicante at 50 km. This positioning gives the area a dual orientation: towards Torrevieja and the coastal belt for daily life, and towards Murcia for regional services and intercity transport.
The three nearest beaches, Cala Estaca (283 m), Cala Mosca (393 m) and Playa Cala Cerrada (450 m), are all within a short walk. Three golf courses sit within a 5-kilometre radius: Club de Golf Villamartín at 3.3 km, Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 4.6 km and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 4.8 km, with Club de Golf La Finca at 13.7 km. Torrevieja town centre lies roughly 4 kilometres north. Regionally, Murcia is 19 km away, Elche 30 km and Alicante 50 km. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 40 km in a straight line, translating to around 40 minutes by car. Alternative airports are Valencia at 161 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol at 351 km. Daily provisions require no driving: the supermarket is 240 metres away and the pharmacy 180 metres.

The property sits at approximately 23 to 37 metres above sea level on flat coastal terrain, meaning no significant gradients on footpaths or access routes. The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.9°C, with monthly averages ranging from 10°C in the coldest months to 27°C in summer. Historical sunshine totals reach 3,844 hours per year, among the higher figures recorded on the Spanish Mediterranean coast. The swimming season extends approximately six months, during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20°C, running roughly from late May through October. Rainfall concentrates in autumn, with September and October the wettest months. The south-east orientation of the house means morning sun on the front terrace and solarium, with shade developing in late afternoon. The coastal position moderates summer heat through sea breezes but also brings salt-laden air, which affects exterior maintenance cycles.

The immediate coastline consists of a series of coves: Cala Estaca at 283 metres, Cala Mosca at 393 metres and Playa Cala Cerrada at 450 metres, all reachable on foot in under ten minutes. These are small, sheltered coves typical of Orihuela Costa rather than long open beaches; current Blue Flag status should be verified annually as designations change. For golfers, three courses fall within five kilometres, Villamartín, Las Ramblas and Campoamor, forming one of the densest golf clusters on the southern Costa Blanca. Sports facilities include the Palacio del Agua water sports and swimming centre at 600 metres, a physical conditioning centre at 700 metres and the municipal polideportivo at 1.2 kilometres. Viewpoints such as Mirador del Palmeral (1.3 km) and Cruz de la Muela (1.9 km) offer walking destinations with coastal outlooks. The nearby Punta Prima and La Zenia stretches extend beach options within a short drive.

Within the southern Costa Blanca resale and new-build market, this property occupies a distinct niche. The closest new-build comparables are apartments: Palangre Beach in Torrevieja from €160,000 and Edificio Sun & Center, also Torrevieja, from €169,000, both key-ready. Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in El Raso starts from €227,000. At €204,000, this townhouse sits above the Torrevieja apartments while remaining below the El Raso phase. What differentiates it is not specification but format: a plot of 150 m² with private terraces, a patio with summer kitchen and a private solarium, which apartments in the comparable projects do not offer at these price points. The trade-off is age: a 1985 building fabric, however renovated, carries different maintenance expectations and likely poorer thermal performance than post-2020 construction with current energy standards. Locationally, Playa Flamenca offers closer beach access (283 m to the nearest cove) than El Raso, which lies roughly 4 km inland from the coast, while sharing the same golf corridor of Villamartín, Las Ramblas and Campoamor. Compared with central Torrevieja, Playa Flamenca is quieter in the shoulder seasons and has a lower residential density, though both swell in summer. For buyers weighing the €35,000 to €44,000 premium over the Torrevieja apartments against private outdoor space and a single-level layout, the decision rests on whether ground-floor format and terraces outweigh new-build warranties and energy efficiency. Rental demand exists in both markets, though Playa Flamenca's cove proximity supports summer letting, while year-round letting is more realistic given the permanent population and year-round services.
