This renovated bungalow is located in Playa Flamenca, a coastal district of Orihuela in the province of Alicante, roughly four kilometres south of Torrevieja. The property dates from 1970, has been modernised, and offers three bedrooms, one bathroom, 80 m² of living space and a 150 m² plot with front garden, rear garden and a rooftop solarium with sea views. The nearest beaches, Cala Estaca and Cala Mosca, lie within 400 metres, and a supermarket, pharmacy and sports facilities are reachable on foot. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 40 km away in a straight line.
Within its competitive set, this property occupies a middle position. In Torrevieja, two completed apartment developments are listed from €160,000 (Palangre Beach) and €169,000 (Sun & Center), both cheaper, but both apartment typologies without private plot, garden or solarium. In Urbanización El Raso, Oasis Laguna II Phase II starts at €227,000, positioned further from the beach in a residential urbanisation. At €204,000, this bungalow offers attributes the cheaper apartments lack, a 150 m² plot with two gardens, a private rooftop solarium with sea views, and a furnished turnkey condition, while undercutting the El Raso development by €23,000 with a substantially closer beach position. The distinction between these segments is typological rather than purely locational. Apartment stock in Torrevieja typically includes communal pools and community fees; this property trades communal facilities for private outdoor space and zero community charges, which shifts the cost structure from monthly fees to individual maintenance. Its 1970 construction date is a differentiator in the other direction: newer stock such as Oasis Laguna II will carry modern building standards and energy documentation that a renovated older dwelling may not match. Buyers comparing across these options are effectively weighing private plot and beach proximity (this property) against communal amenities and modern construction (the alternatives). Location-wise, Playa Flamenca sits closer to the shore than El Raso and marginally south of central Torrevieja, with equivalent access to the golf cluster around Villamartín and Campoamor at 3.3–4.8 km. For the Costa Blanca South market generally, the sub-€210,000 furnished segment within walking distance of three coves is a narrow niche, which gives this listing a defined position within the regional inventory.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property sits in a built-up coastal neighbourhood with daily amenities within walking distance: a supermarket at 240 metres, a pharmacy at 180 metres, and the Palacio del Agua sports centre at 600 metres. Three coves lie between roughly 280 and 450 metres away. The setting combines residential density with direct beach access, and street parking is the available option.
The property functions as a low-maintenance coastal dwelling: furnished, air-conditioned, with an enclosed front porch featuring a fireplace, a modern kitchen including dishwasher, a separate laundry space, and a solarium. There are no community fees, which reduces fixed running costs. Three bedrooms accommodate a household or guests, within a compact 80 m² footprint.
This is not a new-build project. The dwelling was completed in 1970 (indicative) and has since undergone a full renovation, with a contemporary kitchen, modern bathroom, and updated interior finishes. The construction phase is completed; the property is ready for immediate occupation. No phased delivery or construction risk applies.
The property offers one bathroom only, no private garage (street parking only), and no communal facilities such as a pool or garden. The building dates from 1970, so typical modern energy-efficiency certifications for new construction do not apply. Plot size is limited to 150 m², and the second bathroom common in newer developments is absent.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A household seeking a full-time coastal residence with walkable access to a supermarket, pharmacy, schools and beaches would find the layout and equipment, dishwasher, laundry space, air conditioning, fireplace, aligned with year-round living. A buyer wanting a low-maintenance second home benefits from the lock-and-go format: furnished, no community fees, minimal plot maintenance, and street parking. Those with rental ambitions should note the location's fundamentals: three coves within 450 metres, 38 restaurants and 28 cafés within two kilometres, and a six-month swimming season historically supporting demand in the warmer half of the year. It suits less well in specific cases. Households requiring two or more bathrooms will find the single bathroom a structural limitation. Buyers wanting a private pool, garage or communal facilities should look elsewhere, as none are present. Those sensitive to summer-season busyness in popular coastal neighbourhoods should factor in the area's tourism profile, which brings higher footfall between June and September. The 1970 construction date matters to buyers prioritising modern building standards; the renovation addresses interior condition but not the underlying construction era. Finally, owners who travel frequently by air should account for the roughly 40 km straight-line distance to Alicante-Elche airport, manageable but not immediate.
The property has undergone a full renovation, and the available documentation describes a contemporary interior. The kitchen is fitted with white units, an induction hob and a dishwasher, with a window providing natural light; a separate laundry space adds practical capacity beyond the standard kitchen utility. The bathroom is finished to a modern standard with a walk-in shower, toilet and basin. Ceilings are described as high, which contributes to the open character of the main living space. The enclosed front porch, with its fireplace and wide connecting door, functions as a year-round intermediate zone between the street-facing garden and the living room, a typology common in Spanish coastal bungalows that has been modernised here. Outdoor surfaces consist of a front garden, a private rear garden and a rooftop solarium with sea views; imagery shows patio seating areas and terrace space with sun loungers. Technical provisions include air conditioning. As a 1970 building, the property predates contemporary energy-efficiency requirements, and no energy label is recorded in the available data; buyers wishing to assess thermal performance should request the existing energy performance certificate and check insulation, glazing and the age of the climate systems during viewing. Parking is on-street, and no storage room or private garage is listed. Overall, the renovation level corresponds to current market expectations for resale coastal stock in this price bracket, with the kitchen and bathroom as the strongest documented elements.
The asking price is €204,000 for a completed, furnished three-bedroom bungalow of 80 m² on a 150 m² plot. Within the immediate region, comparable listings include apartments in Torrevieja from €160,000 (Palangre Beach) and €169,000 (Sun & Center), and apartments in Urbanización El Raso from €227,000 (Oasis Laguna II). The property is priced between these tiers, reflecting its plot, solarium and coastal position relative to apartment stock. As a resale, completed dwelling, the price includes furniture; ongoing costs consist of standard municipal taxes and utilities, with no community fees charged. Purchase costs such as transfer tax and notary fees apply separately.
Daily life here revolves around a compact, walkable coastal neighbourhood. The morning routine can plausibly include a short walk of under five minutes to one of three nearby coves, Cala Estaca at 283 metres, Cala Mosca at 393 metres, or Playa Cala Cerrada at 450 metres, followed by grocery shopping at the supermarket 240 metres away. The pharmacy at 180 metres and a dense concentration of 38 restaurants and 28 cafés within a two-kilometre radius shape the rhythm of the area: most errands do not require a car. The dwelling itself supports a flexible daily pattern. The enclosed front porch with fireplace extends usable living space into cooler months, while the rooftop solarium with sea views serves the long warm season, the area records around 3,844 hours of sunshine per year historically and a six-month swimming season with water temperatures at or above 20°C. The separate laundry space and dishwasher indicate that the property is equipped for full-time residence, not only short stays. Three bedrooms provide room for a family or visiting guests within the 80 m² layout. The single bathroom is a practical constraint for larger households. Outside the summer months, Playa Flamenca retains its residential function: the wider Orihuela municipality has a substantial year-round population, and services such as the Palacio del Agua sports centre (0.6 km) and seven schools within two kilometres operate continuously. Street parking and the absence of community fees simplify ownership logistics, while public transport, eight stops and 15 lines in the area, connects the neighbourhood to Torrevieja and Orihuela town.
Playa Flamenca operates as a residential coastal district within the municipality of Orihuela, whose wider area counts approximately 84,560 inhabitants. The immediate environment is urban rather than rural: within a two-kilometre radius there are 38 restaurants, 28 cafés, 16 pharmacies, 18 banks, seven schools and a park, which indicates a fully established service network rather than a seasonal resort. Daily mobility is largely possible on foot or by bicycle, the supermarket (240 m), pharmacy (180 m) and sports facilities (Palacio del Agua at 0.6 km, a fitness centre at 0.7 km, a municipal sports ground at 1.2 km) all fall within easy walking range. Public transport consists of 15 lines and eight stops in the vicinity, connecting to Torrevieja four kilometres north and Orihuela city further inland. The nearest train station, Orihuela Miguel Hernández, is recorded at 0.9 km in the dataset. Healthcare at hospital level requires travel: the nearest hospital is 9.7 km away. An electric-vehicle charging point sits 409 metres from the property. The neighbourhood's character shifts with the seasons, busier during the summer months when the coves draw visitors, and quieter in winter when the resident population dominates. The Saturday-style market tradition in Playa Flamenca, selling goods from clothing to fresh produce, adds a weekly rhythm to local life.
The map shows the property's position in Playa Flamenca relative to the three nearby coves, Cala Estaca, Cala Mosca and Cala Cerrada, all within 450 metres. Also marked are the supermarket, pharmacy, sports centres and the road connections towards Torrevieja, La Zenia Boulevard and the AP-7 corridor towards Alicante airport and Murcia.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Playa Flamenca occupies the southern coastal strip of Orihuela municipality, four kilometres south of Torrevieja and roughly 19 km from Murcia, the nearest major city. Elche lies 30 km north-east and Alicante 50 km north, with Alicante-Elche airport approximately 40 km away in a straight line. Within the Orihuela Costa strip, the district is positioned between Torrevieja's urban services and the golf-orientated urbanisations of Villamartín and Campoamor slightly inland. This places the property in the denser, amenity-rich segment of the coast rather than in the quieter residential zones further from the shore.
Beaches are the strongest proximity factor: Playa Cala Estaca lies 283 metres away, Cala Mosca 393 metres, and Playa Cala Cerrada 450 metres, all within a five-minute walk. Golf is well represented, with four courses within a 14 km radius: Villamartín (3.3 km), Las Ramblas de Orihuela (4.6 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (4.8 km) and La Finca (13.7 km). Shopping includes La Zenia Boulevard, reachable by car within approximately five to ten minutes. For regional travel, Alicante-Elche airport (ALC) is roughly 40 km away in a straight line; Valencia airport lies at approximately 161 km and Málaga at approximately 351 km. Larger cities in range are Murcia (19 km), Elche (30 km) and Alicante (50 km). The hospital at 9.7 km is the furthest recurring destination among essential services.

The property sits at approximately 23–37 metres above sea level in low-lying coastal terrain, with negligible slope relevant to daily access. The climate data record an average annual temperature of 18.9°C, with monthly averages ranging from 10°C in the coldest period to 27°C in the warmest. Historical sunshine totals around 3,844 hours per year, among the higher figures for coastal Spain, which supports extended outdoor use of the solarium, gardens and porch across most of the year. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures at or above 20°C, lasts approximately six months. The fireplace in the enclosed porch provides supplementary heating for the cooler months, complemented by air conditioning for the warm season. Coastal coves and the nearby Mirador del Palmeral viewpoint (1.3 km) form the closest natural amenities; the terrain is urbanised rather than natural, with the sea as the dominant landscape element.

Three coves lie within a 450-metre radius: Cala Estaca (283 m), Cala Mosca (393 m) and Cala Cerrada (450 m), giving the property direct pedestrian access to swimming and coastal walks. Recreational infrastructure is dense for a district of this size: the Palacio del Agua aquatic sports centre at 0.6 km, a fitness conditioning centre at 0.7 km, a municipal polideportivo at 1.2 km, and a cricket complex noted within walking distance in the property description. Golfers can reach four courses by car: Villamartín at 3.3 km, Las Ramblas at 4.6 km, Campoamor at 4.8 km and La Finca at 13.7 km. Viewpoints at Mirador del Palmeral (1.3 km) and Cruz de la Muela (1.9 km) provide walking destinations with coastal panoramas. No specific Blue Flag designations are recorded in the available data for the nearest coves, so buyers valuing that certification should verify current status independently.
