Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in the Vista Azul 4 area of Torre de la Horadada, a small coastal town at the southern tip of Alicante province on the border with Murcia. The sea is roughly 500 metres away and local shops about 600 metres. The Plaza Nueva with its restaurants and cafés is 800 metres from the door, and the N-332 and AP-7 motorway are both quickly reachable by car.
The layout offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms across 96 square metres, with a realistic option to create a third bedroom. Three terraces and a toldo awning allow outdoor use through the day, and the semi-detached position means sun and shade are both available. Air conditioning, sea views and private parking are listed. Furnishing is included, which lowers the practical threshold for moving in or letting.
This is an existing property, not a new-build development. The house was completed in 1970 as recorded in the listing data, with the source description stating it was renovated and reconfigured more recently, including a new kitchen, new flooring and new furniture. It is key-ready, so no waiting period or construction risk applies. Any third bedroom conversion would be a future owner's project.
The property has no private garden and the plot equals the built area at 96 square metres, so all outdoor space consists of terraces. The swimming pool shown is communal, not private, despite a features list that also mentions a private pool, buyers should verify this discrepancy. There are two bedrooms only, parking is limited to a private space rather than a garage, and no lift or storage room is recorded.
This property fits a buyer seeking a ready-to-use coastal home at an accessible price rather than a new-build with waiting time. A couple wanting a second home within walking distance of the sea, restaurants and shops can use it immediately, furnished as it is. A small family may value the nearby school and the realistic option of a third bedroom as needs grow. Buyers planning to let the property will find the two-bathroom layout, air conditioning and poolside position practical for holiday rentals. It also suits anyone who wants to avoid the communal-living feel of a large apartment block while accepting the modest scale of a 96-square-metre townhouse. It fits less well for buyers needing a private garden, since the plot equals the built footprint and all outdoor space consists of terraces. Those requiring three bedrooms from day one would need to carry out the conversion themselves. Buyers seeking extensive privacy or a garage rather than a parking space should also look elsewhere. Finally, the discrepancy between the listed 1970 completion date and the description's reference to 2003 construction makes independent verification of the building's legal status a sensible step for any serious buyer.
The interior has been renovated, with the kitchen, flooring and furniture all replaced, and the property is sold fully furnished. The staircase features marble steps according to the image analysis, and the kitchen-dining area presents a modern layout. Air conditioning is installed for climate control. As a house originally built decades ago, the data sheet records 1970, the renovation standard matters more than the original construction year, and buyers should confirm which structural elements were updated. The three terraces extend the usable living area considerably beyond the 96 square metres indoors, and the toldo awning makes at least one terrace usable in high summer. The semi-detached orientation means the house receives sun at all hours of the day while retaining a shaded side, a practical advantage in a climate where August temperatures average around 26 degrees. Private parking is included. No information is available on energy performance, insulation values or the age of the electrical and plumbing installations; these are standard due-diligence questions for a property of this age and should be raised during inspection.
The asking price is fixed at €239,000 for the property as a whole, including furniture, this is an existing home, not a new-build project with a price list. Within the immediate area, the comparable new-build development O-Porto Beach in Torre de la Horadada starts at €245,900, which places this house at or slightly below the entry level of local new construction. Further afield, comparable projects start notably higher: Oceanic Apartments in Rojales from €475,000 and Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva from €380,000. Availability is immediate, as the house is key-ready. The province records a median income of €15,750, context for local purchasing power rather than for tourist-oriented property pricing.
Daily life here revolves around a compact, walkable coastal neighbourhood. Morning coffee can be taken on one of the three terraces before a ten-minute walk down to the sea; the route is flat, with a gradient of just 0.4 per cent to the beach. Shopping for groceries is a 600-metre errand, and the Plaza Nueva, the local square lined with restaurants and cafés, sits 800 metres away, close enough for an evening stroll without moving the car. The house itself is configured around a modern kitchen-dining area, with marble stairs connecting the levels. Because the property is semi-detached, one side always catches the sun while the other stays shaded, and the toldo awning extends usable terrace hours in July and August, when average temperatures reach 26 degrees. The communal swimming pool sits directly beside the house, effectively functioning as a garden substitute. Off-season, the town retains its Spanish residential character, with under 3,000 inhabitants in the town proper, so restaurants and services stay open year-round rather than closing after the summer. The realistic third-bedroom option means the layout can adapt as household circumstances change, and the inclusion of furniture removes a practical barrier for overseas buyers.
Torre de la Horadada sits at the southernmost point of Alicante province, on the boundary with Murcia. The town itself is small, with an estimated 2,676 inhabitants, falling under the municipality of Pilar de la Horadada, which counts 22,967 residents. This scale translates into a village-like daily rhythm rather than a resort atmosphere: local shops within 600 metres, a school nearby, and a pharmacy within two kilometres. The area's name derives from the 16th-century watchtower on the Punta de la Horadada, a rocky point perforated by small sea-carved caves. Thirteen restaurants and four cafés operate within a two-kilometre radius, enough for variation without leaving town. Public transport is well developed for this size of settlement, 16 lines and 46 stops, which is relevant for residents who prefer not to drive daily. Larger urban centres are within reach: Murcia and Cartagena are each 36 kilometres away in a straight line, and Elche 44 kilometres, so specialist shopping, hospitals and cultural amenities require a car trip but no long journey.

Within the southern Costa Blanca, Torre de la Horadada occupies a quieter coastal position between the Mar Menor area of Murcia and the larger resort towns to the north. It is more residential and less touristic than Torrevieja, yet closer to the border with Murcia than most Alicante coastal towns. For regional orientation: Murcia and Cartagena lie 36 kilometres to the south-west, Elche 44 kilometres to the north, and Alicante-Elche airport roughly 50 kilometres away.
Everyday errands are covered on foot: shops at 600 metres and the Plaza Nueva at 800 metres. Thirteen restaurants and four cafés fall within a two-kilometre radius, alongside a pharmacy. The AP-7 and N-332 connect the town to the wider region by car, with Alicante-Elche airport about 50 kilometres away as the crow flies. Murcia and Cartagena are each 36 kilometres in a straight line. Public transport is unusually extensive for a town of this size, with 16 lines and 46 stops, which reduces dependence on a car for local trips.

The climate is typical of the southern Costa Blanca: an average annual temperature of 19.1 degrees, with monthly averages ranging from 11 degrees in the coldest month to 26 in the warmest. The swimming season lasts about five months, defined by sea temperatures of 20 degrees or above, which comfortably covers May to September and often part of October. The town lies at 13 metres above sea level, and the route to the nearest beach descends at a gradient of just 0.4 per cent, effectively flat, which makes the 1.5-kilometre walk to Cala de la Lombriz easy on foot or by bicycle. The flat terrain also means no stairs or slopes between the house and the sea, relevant for older residents or families with pushchairs. The Observatorio de Aves bird observatory, 3.2 kilometres away, indicates nearby natural interest along the coast.

The nearest beach, Cala de la Lombriz, lies 1.5 kilometres away in a straight line, the source description gives roughly 500 metres from the house to the sea, so the nearest access point is closer than the named beach. Playa del Mojón follows at 2.4 kilometres and Playa Barranco Rubio at 3.5 kilometres. Three marinas cluster within six kilometres: Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (4.0 km), C.N. Villa de San Pedro (5.0 km) and Puerto Deportivo de Lo Pagán (5.7 km), covering moorings and water sports. Golfers can reach Club de Golf Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 6.0 kilometres, Lo Romero at 6.1 kilometres and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 7.1 kilometres, three courses within a short drive. Sports facilities include the Rocódromo Municipal climbing wall (1.3 km), Pinatar Arena (2.7 km), used by professional football clubs for winter training, and Sport Center Montepiedra (3.8 km).

Torre de la Horadada is a Spanish town, located on the Mediterranean Sea, with an estimated population of 2,676 inhabitants. It comes under the jurisdiction of Pilar de la Horadada, which in turn has a total population of 22,967, according to the National Statistics Institute. Both of these towns are located in the most southern point of the Alicante province in the southeast of Spain, and therefore share a border with the province of Murcia. The name of the town has its origin in two factors: the first, the 16th century watchtower; and the second, the site where the tower is found: the point of Horadada, which comes from the Spanish word for "bore through" as it is situated on rocks made up of small caves, developed by the water boring the rock.

Along the southern Costa Blanca and into the Murcia border zone, buyers weighing this townhouse are effectively comparing an established, furnished coastal home against new-build alternatives. The nearest comparable is O-Porto Beach in Torre de la Horadada itself, with prices from €245,900, within a few thousand euros of this property's fixed €239,000 asking price, though new-build pricing typically refers to smaller apartment types without included furniture. Further north, Oceanic Apartments in Rojales start at €475,000, reflecting that town's positioning towards the golf and villa market around Ciudad Quesada. Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva, from €380,000, represents the inland villa segment: more plot and privacy, but several kilometres from the coast. This house occupies a different position: modest in scale at 96 square metres on an equal-sized plot, but within 500 metres of the sea and walking distance of the town's square. Torre de la Horadada itself is smaller and quieter than nearby resort hubs such as Torrevieja or San Javier, with a population of under 3,000 in the town proper. That scale suits buyers prioritising a settled Spanish coastal town over a purpose-built resort, at a price point well below the regional average for comparable distance-to-beach positions. The trade-off is the age of the building stock and the absence of new-build guarantees, which the recent renovation partially offsets.
