This renovated ground-floor apartment is situated in Villamartin, an urbanisation within the municipality of Orihuela on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 60 m² of living space, built in 1970 and since modernised to a key-ready standard. The asking price is fixed at €189,000. The apartment sits a short walk from La Fuente Commercial Centre, with the Villamartin golf course about 0.5 km away as the crow flies and the nearest Orihuela Costa beaches roughly 3.3 km distant. Features include a south-facing terrace, air conditioning, a lift, open parking and access to a communal swimming pool.
Within the southern Costa Blanca resale market, this apartment competes on location density rather than novelty. Comparable new-build projects nearby start lower or higher: Palangre Beach in Torrevieja from €160,000, Sun & Center in Torrevieja from €169,000 and Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso from €227,000. Those are starting prices for off-plan or newly completed units with modern building standards, typically smaller unit counts and developer payment structures; this property is a fixed-price resale in a 1970s building that has been renovated. What it offers against that competition is immediacy, key-ready, no construction risk, no staged payments, and an established setting: the golf concentration around Villamartin, with four courses within 3 km, is not matched by the Torrevieja city-centre projects, which trade golf proximity for beach proximity and urban density. El Raso sits in a quieter, more inland-oriented zone near Guardamar, further from a comparable commercial hub. Buyers weighing this apartment against new-build alternatives should compare three things honestly: the 1970s structural frame versus current building regulations, the compact 60 m² footprint versus typical new-build layouts at similar prices, and the walkability of La Fuente and proximity to Villamartin Golf versus the seafront positions of the Torrevieja options. Regionally, Villamartin sits closer to Murcia (33 km) than to Alicante city, which matters for airport planning: Alicante-Elche at 42 km remains the practical gateway, and the future Corvera airport region lies to the south-west. The position between the Elche and Murcia urban belts gives residents access to two full sets of regional services, hospitals and shopping, an advantage of this part of the coast that city-based Torrevieja projects share only partially.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Villamartin lies in Orihuela municipality, Alicante province, at 85 metres above sea level. The area combines a residential urbanisation with an 18-hole golf course. Within roughly 2 km there are 29 restaurants, a pharmacy, six banks and a cafe. La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre is about 2.2 km away in a straight line, and the nearest beaches sit 3.3 km from the property.
The apartment is configured for low-maintenance living: two bedrooms and two bathrooms across 60 m², a south-facing terrace for outdoor use, and air conditioning for the summer months. A lift serves the building and open parking is included. A communal pool provides swimming facilities without private upkeep. Daily amenities are walkable, which reduces dependence on a car for routine errands.
This is not a new-build development. The property is an existing apartment completed in 1970 and has been renovated; it is available key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase. No construction phase or delivery schedule applies. Any remaining works or upgrades would be a matter for the buyer, and the purchase process follows the standard resale route rather than an off-plan contract.
The property does not offer a private garden, private pool, private garage or storage room; parking is open and communal. With 60 m² of living area, space is compact by family-home standards. The building dates from 1970, so construction standards differ from current new-build regulations. No sea view is indicated, and the beach is 3.3 km away, so this is not a beachfront location.
This property suits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a manageable second home will find the 60 m² layout, two bathrooms and walkable amenities practical for part-year residence, with the communal pool covering seasonal leisure needs without maintenance obligations. Buyers relocating permanently on a budget may value the fixed price point below €200,000 and the fact that the home is ready to occupy, avoiding the waiting period and staged payments of off-plan purchases. Golf players benefit most directly: three courses within roughly 3 km, with Villamartin's own club a five-minute walk, is a locational advantage few apartments in this price bracket offer. Investors considering rental use should note the location's established appeal to holiday visitors, the concentration of restaurants and proximity to La Zenia Boulevard supports short-term demand, though returns depend on seasonality and local licensing. The property is less suitable for buyers needing generous space, a private pool or a private garage, since none of these are included. Households that want to walk to the beach will also find the 3.3 km distance to Cala Mosca a limitation. In short, the match is strongest where the priority is a ready, compact, well-located base in a golf and amenities-led urbanisation rather than front-line coastal living.
The apartment has been renovated, which in this market segment typically means an updated kitchen, modernised bathrooms and refreshed surfaces, though the exact specification of materials should be verified during a viewing. The contemporary category assigned to the property aligns with that refurbishment. Technical features listed include air conditioning for climate control and a lift in the building, the latter a meaningful practicality for a 1970s block and relevant for future-proofing. The construction date of 1970 sets the structural frame: solid masonry construction of that era, with renovation addressing the interior rather than the building envelope. Buyers should ask about the age of the electrical installation, plumbing and windows, as these vary between individual renovations and influence both comfort and running costs. The south-facing terrace extends the usable living area for most of the year; outdoor furniture and dining are realistic given average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. External communal areas appear well maintained, with gardens and a palm-fringed pool area. Open parking is included but unassigned, which is common in this type of complex and means availability follows the general occupancy pattern. Overall, the finishing level is consistent with a renovated resale apartment rather than new-build standards, and the price should be assessed against that reality.
The apartment is offered at a fixed asking price of €189,000. This is a resale property, so there is no price list or unit variation: the price applies to this specific two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment of 60 m². For context, comparable new-build projects in the wider area include Palangre Beach in Torrevieja from €160,000, Sun & Center in Torrevieja from €169,000 and Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso from €227,000. Those figures are starting prices for new construction and are not directly comparable with a fixed resale price. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status. Additional purchase costs, such as transfer tax and notary fees, apply on top of the asking price.
Daily life here centres on a compact residential complex with palm-lined gardens and a communal pool, a short walk from the restaurants, cafes and shops of La Fuente Commercial Centre. Mornings can begin on the south-facing terrace, which receives sun for most of the day and suits outdoor meals throughout the year given the regional climate. The ground-floor position means no stairs are needed to reach the front door, though a lift is present in the building. The surrounding urbanisation has a steady, residential rhythm: quieter in winter, busier in the summer months when seasonal visitors arrive. Within a 2 km radius, the density of eateries, 29 restaurants plus cafes and banks, makes it possible to handle most daily needs on foot. The beaches of Orihuela Costa, including Cala Mosca at 3.3 km, are a short drive rather than a stroll, so a car remains practical for coastal days, larger shopping trips to La Zenia Boulevard and airport transfers. Golf is the defining leisure feature of the immediate area: Club de Golf Villamartin lies about 0.5 km away, with Real Club de Golf Campoamor and Las Ramblas within 3 km. For residents who play, this makes the course effectively a neighbourhood facility. Public transport is available, 10 lines and 50 stops serve the wider area, but as in most of Orihuela Costa, coverage is oriented towards main corridors rather than door-to-door convenience.
The immediate environment is a consolidated residential urbanisation built around golf. Villamartin's own course sits about 0.5 km from the apartment, and two further clubs, Campoamor and Las Ramblas, lie within 3 km, giving the area its character as one of the Costa Blanca's established golf corridors. Daily infrastructure is dense for a suburban setting: within 2 km there are 29 restaurants, six banks, a pharmacy and a cafe, and the La Fuente Commercial Centre is described as a short stroll away. La Zenia Boulevard, one of the province's largest shopping centres, is 2.2 km distant as the crow flies. Electric-vehicle charging is available nearby at three locations between 2.1 and 2.3 km. Larger cities frame the region: Murcia (462,979 inhabitants) is 33 km away in a straight line, Elche (234,765) at 36 km and Cartagena (218,943) at 42 km, meaning significant urban services, hospitals and cultural amenities sit within an hour's drive. The immediate streets are residential in scale, low-rise and green, quieter outside July and August and busier during the Spanish holiday season. The area's rhythm follows the seasons rather than commuter traffic.
The map shows the apartment's position within Villamartin, Orihuela: close to the golf course and La Fuente Commercial Centre, with the Orihuela Costa coves a short distance south and La Zenia Boulevard to the east. All distances shown are straight-line; road routes are somewhat longer.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Villamartin occupies a specific position on the southern Costa Blanca: inside Orihuela municipality, Alicante province, but close to the regional boundary with Murcia. That places it between two urban worlds, the Alicante, Elche corridor to the north-east and the Murcia, Cartagena conurbation to the south-west, both within about 40 km. The area is part of the Orihuela Costa belt of golf urbanisations, alongside Campoamor and Las Ramblas, and functions as a residential rather than tourist-resort destination, with tourism concentrated on the coast itself.
Distances below are straight-line; road distances are longer. The nearest beaches, Cala Mosca, Cala La Mosca and Cala Estaca, lie 3.3 to 3.4 km away, a short drive. Alicante-Elche Airport is roughly 42 km distant, making it the natural arrival and departure hub; Valencia airport at 174 km and Malaga at 360 km are far less practical alternatives. Golf is the closest amenity of all: Villamartin Golf at 0.2 km and the club course at 0.5 km. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (4.7 km) and Real Club Náutico (7.5 km), serve boating needs. Public transport exists, 10 lines and 50 stops, but for beach visits, shopping and airport runs a car remains the practical mode. Open parking on site makes car ownership straightforward.

Villamartin sits at 85 metres above sea level, gently elevated above the coast, which softens summer heat slightly compared with front-line areas. The average annual temperature is 18.9°C, with monthly averages running from about 12°C in the coldest months to 26°C in summer, a pattern that supports terrace use for most of the year and rarely requires heating beyond the milder winter evenings. Rainfall is low in the regional context, and the swimming season extends to roughly five months, when sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above. The climate is one of the area's principal assets: outdoor living on the south-facing terrace is realistic from spring through late autumn. The natural setting combines the manicured greens of three golf courses with the coves and sandy stretches of the Orihuela Costa shoreline a few kilometres south. The terrain around the urbanisation is relatively gentle for an 85-metre elevation, so walking to local amenities involves little serious gradient.

The Orihuela Costa beaches nearest to the property, Cala Mosca, Cala La Mosca and Cala Estaca, all between 3.3 and 3.4 km away, are small coves typical of this stretch of coastline, suited to swimming and quieter seaside days. The five-month swimming season, with water temperatures of 20°C or above from roughly late May into October, defines the practical beach calendar. Recreation, however, begins much closer to home. Villamartin Golf is 0.2 km away and the Club de Golf Villamartin course 0.5 km, with Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 2.3 km and Las Ramblas at 2.9 km, four courses within a three-kilometre radius, an unusually dense concentration. For land-based sport, Sport Center Montepiedra and a fitness centre lie around 4.7 to 4.8 km away. Two marinas within 4.7 to 7.5 km cover sailing and water-sport access. Dining out requires no driving at all: the 29 restaurants within 2 km make the immediate area self-sufficient for evening leisure.
