This detached villa stands in El Galán, a residential area within Villamartin, in the municipality of Orihuela, province of Alicante. Built in 1970 and now key-ready, the property offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 100 m² of living space on a 200 m² plot. The asking price is fixed at €364,995. The villa includes a private swimming pool, off-road parking behind electric entrance gates, and a balcony off the master bedroom overlooking the pool area. Golf courses, beaches and the Zenia Boulevard shopping centre lie within a few kilometres of the property.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in El Galán, part of the Villamartin urbanisation in Orihuela, Alicante province. Club de Golf Villamartín lies 0.5 km away as the crow flies, with two further golf courses within 3 km. The nearest beaches, including Cala Mosca, are roughly 3.3 km away. Amenities within 2 km include some twenty-nine restaurants, six banks, a pharmacy and a café. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 42 km away in a straight line.
The layout places a lounge, dining area and kitchen in an open-plan arrangement on the ground floor, together with one bedroom and a bathroom. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom are located upstairs, with the master bedroom opening onto a private balcony. Externally there is a private pool, off-road parking and electric gates. At 100 m² of living space on a 200 m² plot, the property suits small households or buyers seeking a manageable second residence.
This is not a new-build project. The villa dates from 1970 and is offered as an existing home in key-ready condition, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. Completion of the original construction took place in 1970; this date is indicative. Buyers should expect a property with over five decades of building history, which carries implications for maintenance and installations that an inspection would clarify.
The property offers no sea views, no communal facilities and no developer warranty, as it is a resale home from 1970. The living area of 100 m² is modest relative to some villas in the region. There is no mention of a garage, storage room or underbuild. The description does not specify air conditioning throughout, heating, or recent renovation works. Buyers relying on public transport should note that a car remains the practical mode of transport for most journeys.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a permanent residence in a residential area with golf, beaches and shopping within a short drive will find the layout and amenities aligned with that need: the ground-floor bedroom and bathroom reduce stair use for daily living. Buyers looking for a holiday home benefit from the key-ready status, the private pool and the gated parking, allowing use from the first season after purchase. Investors considering rental use will note the location's attributes: proximity to three golf courses, beaches within 3.5 km and Zenia Boulevard nearby support year-round rental demand in the Orihuela Costa area. The property suits households that value outdoor space on a modest, manageable scale: 200 m² of plot requires upkeep but not extensive gardening. It fits less well for buyers wanting new-build guarantees, extensive living area, sea views or walk-to-beach proximity, since the coast requires a short drive. Buyers intending to live without a car will find the location workable but not optimal. Those planning full-time remote work should verify internet provision with local suppliers, as the source data does not specify connection quality.
The villa dates from 1970, which frames expectations about construction and finishing. Photographs of the property show bedrooms with wardrobes and air conditioning units, a bathroom with shower, washing machine connection and sink, a twin-bed room with a desk, and an exterior with white entrance gates and palm trees. The interior images suggest a functional, lived-in standard rather than a recently renovated one; buyers should inspect materials, joinery and tiling during a viewing. As a resale home, no developer specification or new-build warranty applies. Systems of this age typically warrant professional checks on electrical wiring, plumbing, damp proofing and the pool installation. The roof structure and any extensions or alterations should be verified against documentation. The presence of air conditioning in at least one bedroom indicates that cooling has been retrofitted, which is common in properties of this era on the Costa Blanca. Heating is not mentioned in the source data; winter comfort at an average January temperature of around 12°C typically relies on electric or portable heating in older homes unless a system has been installed. The electric entrance gates and off-road parking are practical additions. Overall, the finishing level should be assessed on site, and buyers commonly budget for partial modernisation in homes of this age, whether in kitchen units, bathroom fittings or window frames.
The villa is offered at a fixed asking price of €364,995, not as a from-price. This places it just above the entry point of comparable new-build projects in Villamartin: Residencial Innova Sun starts at €363,500 and Villamartín Destination Phase V townhouses at €296,000. Unlike those projects, this is a completed resale home available for immediate occupation, with a private pool and its own plot included in the purchase. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status. As with all resale purchases, the final transaction depends on negotiation, notary scheduling and, where applicable, mortgage approval.
Daily life in El Galán revolves around a quiet residential rhythm. The ground floor of this villa combines lounge, dining area and kitchen in a single open space, which functions as the hub of the home; a bedroom and bathroom on this level allow single-level living for part of the household or visiting guests. The two upper bedrooms provide separation for a second household layer. Outside, the private pool and gated driveway give the plot a self-contained character, with the master balcony overlooking the water. The immediate area is residential rather than touristic in character. Within a 2 km radius there are twenty-nine restaurants, six banks, a pharmacy and a café, so basic daily errands can be done on foot or by a short drive. For larger shopping trips, Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres on the Costa Blanca, lies 2.2 km away as the crow flies. The urbanisation's rhythm is shaped by the golf community: Villamartín golf club is 500 m away, and two other courses lie within 3 km. Beaches at Cala Mosca and Cala Estaca are roughly 3.3 to 3.4 km distant, reachable in a few minutes by car. The location sits at 85 m elevation, which means gentle terrain and short climbs rather than steep hills. Seasonally, the area is quieter in winter months and busier in summer, when holiday visitors increase; permanent residents form a substantial share of the population year-round. A car is the practical standard here: public transport exists, with ten lines and fifty stops in the area, but most destinations are reached faster by road.
The surroundings combine residential calm with close access to leisure infrastructure. Within 2 km, the counts include twenty-nine restaurants, a pharmacy, six banks and a café, covering most daily needs without leaving the immediate area. The golf cluster is the defining feature: Villamartín Golf at 200 m, Club de Golf Villamartín at 500 m, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 2.3 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 2.9 km, all measured in straight lines. Beach access is a short drive: Cala Mosca at 3.3 km, with Cala La Mosca and Cala Estaca each at 3.4 km. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 4.7 km and Real Club Náutico at 7.5 km, serve boating needs. Fitness options include Sport Center Montepiedra at 4.7 km and Snatch Fitness Center at 4.8 km. Electric vehicle charging points are available at three locations within 2.3 km, including Galp and Iberdrola stations. Larger cities are reachable for work, services or culture: Murcia at 33 km straight-line with roughly 463,000 inhabitants, Elche at 36 km with about 235,000, and Cartagena at 42 km with some 219,000. Public transport in the area comprises ten lines with fifty stops, which supports local movement, though most residents rely on a car for flexibility.

Villamartin sits at the southern end of the Alicante province coast, in Orihuela municipality, close to the boundary with the Murcia region. This position places it between two urban systems: the Alicante, Elche corridor to the north-east and the Murcia, Cartagena area to the south-west, each reachable within a 33 to 42 km straight-line radius. Within the Costa Blanca property market, Orihuela Costa is known for golf-led urbanisations and an international resident base, with pricing generally below Marbella-level benchmarks on the Costa del Sol and comparable to other southern Costa Blanca zones.
By car, the villa connects to the wider region via the Orihuela Costa road network; Alicante-Elche airport lies roughly 42 km away in a straight line, with actual road distance somewhat longer. Valencia airport is approximately 174 km away and Malaga-Costa del Sol around 360 km, both measured directly. The nearest beaches are 3.3 to 3.4 km distant, which translates to a few minutes' drive rather than a walk. Zenia Boulevard shopping centre, 2.2 km away, covers retail, dining and cinema needs. Golf, as noted, begins at the edge of the neighbourhood. Public transport consists of ten lines and fifty stops, sufficient for local trips such as to the coast or nearby towns, but journeys to Alicante, Murcia or the airports generally involve connections or are simpler by car. Off-road parking on the own plot removes daily parking concerns, and the electric gates add controlled access. For residents who travel frequently, the airport combination of ALC within an hour's drive makes weekend and short-stay use practical.

The climate data points to a typical southern Costa Blanca profile. The average annual temperature is 18.9°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of at least 20°C, lasts about five months, generally from late spring to early autumn. At 85 m above sea level, the site sits on a low coastal plateau: slopes in the neighbourhood are gentle, and cycling and walking are comfortable in most directions. Rainfall is low by European standards, and the region records abundant sunshine hours, which supports year-round use of the pool, balcony and outdoor spaces. The elevation provides a slight buffer from coastal humidity while keeping the beach within a short drive. Winters are mild enough that frost is rare, though evenings from December to February can feel cool in an older villa without central heating. The local calendar includes 32 public holidays per year, reflecting the Spanish pattern of national, regional and municipal observances.

Beach life is close but not on the doorstep. Three coves lie within about 3.4 km as the crow flies: Cala Mosca, Playa Cala La Mosca and Playa Cala Estaca. These are small Mediterranean coves typical of the Orihuela Costa, suited to swimming and snorkelling rather than long beach walks; the broader beaches of the Orihuela Costa stretch a few kilometres further south. For sailing and mooring, two marinas operate at 4.7 km and 7.5 km. Recreation is dominated by golf: four courses within 3 km, including Villamartín Golf essentially next to the urbanisation, make this one of the denser golf clusters on the coast. Fitness and sport facilities include Sport Center Montepiedra and Snatch Fitness Center, both under 5 km. The private pool on the plot extends the swimming season independently of the sea. Walkers and cyclists can use the plateau terrain, and the nearby coastal paths connect the coves. The area's 29 restaurants within 2 km cover a range of international and Spanish cuisines typical of an international residential zone.

Within Villamartin itself, the villa's fixed price of €364,995 sits directly alongside new-build alternatives. Residencial Innova Sun lists homes from €363,500, and the Villamartín Destination Phase V townhouses start at €296,000. The comparison highlights a consistent market pattern: new-build product in this urbanisation begins around the €300,000 mark, with townhouses at the lower end and apartments and villas higher up. Against those options, this resale villa trades modern specification for other attributes: a private pool on its own 200 m² plot, a detached structure rather than shared walls, immediate availability without construction lead times, and an established location within walking distance of the golf club. Further afield, Oceanic Apartments in Rojales start at €475,000, illustrating that pricing rises in neighbouring zones for new coastal product. Buyers comparing resale and new build in the Orihuela Costa should weigh three factors. First, warranty: new-build purchases carry structural guarantees under Spanish law, whereas a 1970 villa does not. Second, timing: new-build projects in the region typically involve waiting periods and phased payments, while this property can transfer within a standard resale timeline. Third, land: at €364,995, the buyer holds a freehold plot with private pool, an asset class that new-build equivalents at this price point in the same urbanisation generally do not match, since most sub-€400,000 new product consists of apartments or townhouses with communal facilities. The El Galán area itself has a mixed stock of older villas and newer infill developments, which supports a stable resale market. Proximity to three municipalities' infrastructure, Orihuela, Torrevieja and Pilar de la Horadada within a short drive, broadens the practical catchment for services, shopping and healthcare beyond the urbanisation itself.
