This two-bedroom, one-bathroom ground floor apartment is situated in the Lomas del Golf community in Villamartin, within the municipality of Orihuela on the southern Costa Blanca. The property has a living area of 55 square metres and, unusually for an apartment, includes both a front garden overlooking the communal swimming pool and a separate rear garden. The building dates from 1970 and the apartment is offered key-ready with a fixed asking price of €164,995. The surrounding area is a mature residential urbanisation built around golf courses, with shops, restaurants and beaches of Orihuela Costa within a short drive.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Villamartin is an established urbanisation in Orihuela municipality, Alicante province. The apartment lies about 500 metres as the crow flies from Club de Golf Villamartin, with two further golf courses within three kilometres. The nearest beaches, including Cala Mosca, are roughly 3.3 kilometres away in a straight line. The area is residential rather than a tourist resort, with 29 restaurants and a pharmacy within two kilometres.
The apartment offers two bedrooms, one bathroom and 55 square metres of living space, complemented by two private gardens. This layout suits a couple, a small family or buyers seeking a holiday residence with more outdoor space than a typical apartment balcony provides. The ground floor position gives direct access to the front garden and the communal pool. A second bathroom and further bedrooms would require an extension, which is not available.
This is not a new-build project. The building was completed in 1970 and the apartment is available immediately, key-ready, with no construction phase or delivery waiting time. Buyers should expect a property of its era: a mature building within an established community. Any renovation or modernisation works would be a matter for the new owner to assess and schedule after purchase.
The property has one bathroom only and 55 square metres of living area, which limits space for larger households. There is no information available about private parking, storage, lift access or air conditioning. The building dates from 1970, so buyers should conduct the usual technical due diligence. Plot and living area are identical, indicating there is no additional built floor space beyond the stated footprint.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple looking for a low-maintenance base on the Costa Blanca with genuine outdoor space will find the two-garden layout more practical than a standard apartment of the same size. Golfers benefit from the location: Club de Golf Villamartin is about 500 metres away as the crow flies, with Campoamor and Las Ramblas within three kilometres. Buyers seeking a holiday home that can also be rented out seasonally may value the proximity to the Orihuela Costa beaches, roughly 3.3 kilometres away, and the pull of the Zenia Boulevard shopping centre nearby. The fixed asking price under €165,000 places the property at the accessible end of the coastal market, which is relevant for buyers with a defined budget. It is less suitable for larger families needing a second bathroom, for buyers who want a lift or underground parking, or for those specifically seeking modern new-build construction with warranty cover, since the building dates from 1970. Buyers planning year-round residence should also consider how the community functions in the quieter winter months, when part of the local population returns north.
No detailed specification of materials or technical systems is available in the property data, so an honest assessment must rest on the verifiable facts. The building was completed in 1970, which places it in the category of mature Spanish coastal construction: typically cavity-brick or block construction, rendered exteriors and a community-maintained structure. The photographs show an open-plan living area with garden views, a bedroom with fitted wardrobe space, balcony and terrace areas with outdoor furniture and a patio with planting, indicating a property in liveable, maintained condition. Buyers should nonetheless arrange an independent technical inspection, paying particular attention to electrical wiring, plumbing and damp, as systems of this age often predate current standards unless they have been renewed. The heating, air conditioning and hot water arrangements are not documented and should be verified during a viewing. The communal swimming pool and garden areas are managed by the community of owners; the annual community fees are a recurring cost that the seller or agent can confirm. In summary, the build quality question here is less about specification lists and more about the maintenance history of a 1970 building and what has been replaced in the decades since.
The apartment is offered as an existing home with a fixed asking price of €164,995, not as part of a price list. It is key-ready and available immediately, as the building was completed in 1970. At this price point the property competes with new-build apartments in Torrevieja starting from around €160,000 to €169,000, while offering two private gardens and a ground floor position in exchange for the age of the building. Interested parties can request current availability, community fees and annual property tax details through the contact options.
Daily life here revolves around a residential urbanisation that developed around the Villamartin golf course. The community has an international, partly seasonal population: busy in summer, considerably quieter outside the holidays. The apartment itself functions as a compact home with an unusually generous outdoor footprint for its size. The front garden faces the communal swimming pool, which effectively extends the living space during the warm months, and the rear garden offers a second, more private outdoor area for storage, drying laundry or shaded sitting. With 29 restaurants within two kilometres, a pharmacy, a bank branch and a cafe, most daily errands can be done in the immediate area, while the large Zenia Boulevard shopping centre sits about 2.2 kilometres away as the crow flies. The rhythm of the day is car-oriented for most residents: a short drive to the beaches of Orihuela Costa, golf within walking distance for golfers, and morning coffee or evening meals within the urbanisation itself. Public transport exists, with 10 lines and 50 stops recorded in the area, but as in most of this stretch of coast, a car is the practical standard. The elevation of 85 metres means the area sits slightly above the coastline, so the terrain is generally gentle rather than steep.
Villamartin functions as a self-contained residential node within Orihuela Costa. Within two kilometres, the data records 29 restaurants, six banks, a pharmacy and a cafe, which covers most daily needs without leaving the urbanisation. Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres in the province, is about 2.2 kilometres away in a straight line, and also hosts an electric vehicle charging point, as do the Galp station at 2.1 kilometres and an Iberdrola point at 2.3 kilometres. Sports facilities are close at hand: Villamartin Golf is practically adjacent at 200 metres, while Sport Center Montepiedra and Snatch Fitness Center are around 4.7 to 4.8 kilometres away. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 4.7 kilometres and Real Club Náutico at 7.5 kilometres, serve the sailing and boating side of coastal life. Public transport is present with 10 lines and 50 stops, which is more than many rural urbanisations can offer, though frequencies and routes should be checked for specific commuting needs. For practical purposes, most residents rely on a car for beach trips, larger shopping and airport journeys.

Villamartin occupies a specific niche on the southern Costa Blanca: close enough to the Orihuela Costa beaches for daily visits, yet set back on the golf plateau where the surroundings are quieter and more residential than the beachfront strips of Torrevieja. To the north lies Torrevieja, to the south the Mar Menor and Cartagena region, and inland the cities of Orihuela and Murcia. The position, roughly 42 kilometres as the crow flies from Alicante-Elche airport and 33 kilometres from Murcia, places it on the border zone between the Valencian and Murcian markets, which is reflected in the mix of international residents and in property prices that sit below the Marbella end of the market.
The nearest beaches, Cala Mosca, Playa Cala La Mosca and Playa Cala Estaca, lie 3.3 to 3.4 kilometres away as the crow flies; the actual road distance is longer, roughly a five to ten minute drive. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 42 kilometres in a straight line, the main arrival airport for this part of the coast. Murcia, a city of about 463,000 inhabitants, is 33 kilometres away as the crow flies, Elche about 36 kilometres and Cartagena about 42 kilometres, giving residents three substantial urban centres within reach for work, services or culture. Golf is the defining accessibility feature: Club de Golf Villamartin at 0.5 kilometres, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 2.3 kilometres and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 2.9 kilometres, all measured in a straight line. Valencia airport, 174 kilometres away, and Malaga airport, around 360 kilometres, are secondary options. Roads in the area are well developed, and the AP-7 motorway connects the urbanisation to the wider coast.

The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.9 degrees Celsius, with monthly averages ranging from 12 degrees in winter to 26 degrees in summer, a classic semi-arid Mediterranean profile. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of at least 20 degrees, lasts about five months, comfortably spanning late May to early October. The elevation of 85 metres above sea level places the urbanisation on the gentle coastal shelf between the golf courses and the shoreline, meaning slopes are mild and walking within the community is easy, though the distance to the beach is not walkable for most people. Rainfall in this corner of Alicante province is among the lowest in Spain, resulting in a landscape of palms, pines and cultivated golf greens rather than dense native forest. In practical terms, residents can count on outdoor use of the gardens and pool for most of the year, with the hottest summer weeks favouring morning and evening use of the terraces.

The beaches nearest to the property are the small coves of the southern Orihuela Costa: Cala Mosca at 3.3 kilometres and the adjacent Playa Cala La Mosca and Playa Cala Estaca at 3.4 kilometres, all straight-line figures. These rocky coves sit at the quieter end of the coastal spectrum, while the broader sandy beaches of La Zenia and Cabo Roig lie slightly further along the shore. Golf is the anchor recreation of the area: three courses, Villamartin, Campoamor and Las Ramblas, sit within three kilometres, making this one of the densest golf clusters on the Costa Blanca. Water sports and berthing options are available at the two marinas within about five to seven kilometres. Fitness facilities include Sport Center Montepiedra and Snatch Fitness Center around five kilometres away, while the communal pool at the apartment itself covers daily swimming in summer. Cyclists and walkers use the coastal path network connecting the coves, and the mild winter climate keeps these routes usable year-round.

Within its segment, this apartment competes primarily with new-build and key-ready apartments in Torrevieja and the southern Costa Blanca. Apartments Palangre Beach in Torrevieja is priced from €160,000, and Edificio Sun & Center, also key-ready in Torrevieja, starts from €169,000; both bracket this property's fixed price of €164,995. Further inland at Urbanización El Raso, Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II starts from €227,000, illustrating what buyers pay for newer construction and larger specifications. The trade-off is clear: for the same budget as a basic new-build apartment in Torrevieja, this property offers two private gardens, a ground floor position with direct pool access and a location inside a golf urbanisation, but in a building from 1970 without new-build warranty cover. Location-wise, Villamartin sits between two market zones. Torrevieja offers a more urban, year-round coastal town with heavier summer tourism, while Villamartin itself is quieter, green-framed by three golf courses and oriented toward a residential and second-home population. Compared with the beachfront, temperatures are slightly tempered at 85 metres elevation, though the sea remains a five-minute drive rather than a walk. For buyers weighing budget against outdoor space and golf proximity, this property occupies a distinct position: modest interior, generous exterior, mature community. For those prioritising modern construction, a lift, parking included or a walk-to-the-beach address, the Torrevieja alternatives or the El Raso project may fit better despite the price difference.
