A three-bedroom quad house in Ciudad Quesada, Alicante, offered as a completed, key-ready resale property with a fixed asking price of €250,000. The home provides 104 m² of living space on a 208 m² plot, with two floors, a private solarium, a private garden and access to a communal swimming pool. Built in 1970, the property stands in an established residential area of Ciudad Quesada, within a three-minute walk of the nearest shops, bars and restaurants. The Costa Blanca South beaches are approximately a fifteen-minute drive away, and Alicante-Elche airport lies roughly 27 km away as the crow flies.
Within its immediate market, this quad house positions itself as the entry-level option among the current comparables. Lo Marabu Bungalows Fase 2, also in Ciudad Quesada, starts at €322,000, roughly 29% above this property's fixed €250,000 asking price, while Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva starts at €380,000 and Oceanic Apartments in Rojales at €475,000. The gap is largely explained by construction age and specification: this is a 1970-built resale home with one full bathroom and open parking, whereas the comparables are new-build developments with contemporary finishes and warranties. What the older property offers in return is immediacy, no construction phase or delivery risk, plus a larger plot ratio relative to price and two renovation levers in the unfinished underbuild and the pool-sized garden space. Location-wise, Ciudad Quesada itself competes directly with Rojales and Daya Nueva as inland urbanisations serving the Costa Blanca South beach strip, all within a fifteen-minute drive of the coast but priced below frontline towns such as Guardamar or Torrevieja. Regionally, the southern Alicante province remains one of the more affordable stretches of the Spanish Mediterranean coast; the median provincial income of €15,750 indicates a domestic market where international buyers set much of the tone in the coastal urbanisations. Buyers weighing this property against the new-build alternatives should factor in renovation budgets, permit processes for the underbuild and any pool installation, and the absence of new-build legal guarantees on a 1970 structure.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in Ciudad Quesada, an inland residential urbanisation in the south of the Alicante province, at 69 metres above sea level. Shops, bars and restaurants are about a three-minute walk away. The beaches of the Costa Blanca South are roughly a fifteen-minute drive from the house. Elche lies 22 km away in a straight line, with Alicante at 38 km and Murcia at 37 km.
The house offers three bedrooms and one bathroom across two floors, with air conditioning in the lounge and both first-floor bedrooms. Outdoor space includes a front terrace, a private garden with tiled, paved and artificial grass surfaces, and a private solarium. The west-facing orientation provides evening sun and sunsets. An unfinished underbuild with external access offers potential for conversion into additional living or storage space.
This is not a new-build project. The property dates from 1970 and is available immediately as a key-ready resale home, with no construction phase or delivery waiting time. The delivery date listed reflects the original year of completion. Any works, such as converting the underbuild or installing a private pool in the garden, would be projects for the new owner to arrange and budget separately.
The property has one bathroom plus a ground-floor cloakroom, rather than multiple full bathrooms. There is no private pool, only a communal pool; parking is open parking without a garage. The underbuild is unfinished. As an inland location, the house has no sea view and no beach within walking distance. The building's 1970 construction date means installations and finishes may not match current new-build standards.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a holiday home on the Costa Blanca South with immediate availability may value the key-ready status and the walkable distance to shops and restaurants. Households wanting a ground-floor bedroom, for instance with older family members or limited mobility considerations, will note the ground-floor double bedroom and cloakroom, though the single family bathroom upstairs is a limitation to weigh. Buyers with a renovation budget may see the unfinished underbuild and the garden space with room for a private pool as a project to shape to their own requirements, provided they account for permit costs and timelines. Permanent residents working in the wider region can reach Elche, Murcia or Alicante by road, with the airport about 27 km away as the crow flies. The property is less suitable for buyers who want an en-suite bathroom, a private pool already installed, a garage, or a home within walking distance of the beach. It also suits those comparing new-build prices in the area and questioning whether an older, established property at a lower entry price better matches their budget, accepting that installations from 1970 may require updating over time.
The house was completed in 1970, which places it among the older stock in Ciudad Quesada; the current presentation reflects that period updated over time. The lounge benefits from air conditioning and incorporates a dining area alongside an open-plan fitted kitchen, indicating a layout adapted to modern open living rather than the original compartmented design. Both first-floor double bedrooms have air conditioning, while the ground-floor bedroom relies on the ground-floor layout without this stated. The kitchen is described as fitted, though the age and specification of appliances are not detailed in the available data. The family bathroom serves the two upper bedrooms, and a cloakroom on the ground floor adds everyday convenience for a home with one full bathroom. Outdoor finishes are a mix of tiled, paved and artificial grass surfaces, chosen for ease of maintenance. The solarium and terraces are functional extensions of the living space rather than decorative extras. The most significant technical consideration is the unfinished underbuild with external access: it is a shell space, and any conversion into living, leisure, office or storage space would require finishing works, ventilation and possibly permits, for which no cost estimates are included in the data. No energy performance figure or construction warranty is included for this resale property, so a technical survey before purchase is a reasonable step for any buyer assessing long-term maintenance needs.
The asking price is a fixed €250,000 for the completed property as it stands, not a from-price for a range of units. At 104 m² of living space on a 208 m² plot, the price per square metre of living area is roughly €2,400. For context, comparable new-build projects nearby start higher: Lo Marabu Bungalows in Ciudad Quesada from €322,000, Nueva Daya Villa in Daya Nueva from €380,000, and Oceanic Apartments in Rojales from €475,000. The difference partly reflects the 1970 construction date and the single full bathroom. Availability is immediate, as the home is key-ready.
Daily life in this quad house follows a practical, outdoor-oriented rhythm. Mornings can begin on the front terrace or in the low-maintenance garden, which combines tiled, paved and artificial grass surfaces. The ground floor holds the lounge with dining area and an open-plan fitted kitchen, together with a double bedroom and a cloakroom, an arrangement that suits households wanting a bedroom on one level. Internal stairs lead to two further double bedrooms on the first floor, both with air conditioning and served by one family bathroom. At the top of the house, the private solarium faces west, so the strongest light arrives in the late afternoon and evening, with views over the surrounding urbanisation. The neighbourhood is residential rather than touristic. Within roughly two kilometres there are around 25 restaurants, two pharmacies, three banks, a café and a dentist, while the nearest shops, bars and restaurants are a three-minute walk from the door. A car is the practical choice for the beach, which is about fifteen minutes away by car, and for wider trips to towns such as Elche, Murcia or Alicante. Nine public transport lines with five stops in the area provide a basic alternative. The unfinished underbuild with external access adds a flexible space that a new owner could convert into a workroom, storage or extra living area, subject to permissions.
Ciudad Quesada functions as a self-contained residential urbanisation with a commercial core. The nearest shops, bars and restaurants are a three-minute walk from the property, and within two kilometres the area counts roughly 25 restaurants, two pharmacies, three banks, a café and a dentist, a level of daily amenity that reduces dependence on larger towns for routine needs. For sport and leisure, Centro Deportivo La Raqueta is 3.4 km away as the crow flies and the Polideportivo municipal El Molino 3.5 km, with a taekwondo club at 5.0 km. Golfers can reach Club de Golf La Finca at 6.9 km and Club de Golf Villamartín at 14.9 km. The Marina de les Dunes marina lies 7.6 km away, and an Iberdrola EV charging point at the Oasis Center is 3.8 km from the house. Regional cities are all reachable for day trips or work: Elche with about 235,000 inhabitants is 22 km away in a straight line, Murcia about 37 km and Alicante about 38 km, with actual road distances somewhat longer. Public transport consists of nine lines with five stops in the area, workable for some journeys but a car remains the practical mode for beach visits and regional travel.
The map shows the property within Ciudad Quesada's residential grid, with the commercial centre a short walk away and the beaches of the Costa Blanca South beyond the salt lakes to the east. Golf courses, sports facilities and the marina appear as nearby reference points for orientation.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Ciudad Quesada sits inland in the Rojales municipality area of the southern Alicante province, positioned between the salt lakes of Torrevieja and the Segura river plain. Its location places it slightly away from the coast, about a fifteen-minute drive to the beach, but close to the golf corridor that runs through Algorfa, Rojales and Villamartín. Within the wider region, Elche (22 km straight-line) and Murcia (37 km) frame the area to the west and south-west, while Alicante (38 km) lies to the north-east. This positions the property in the more affordable southern section of the Costa Blanca, with price levels generally below those of the northern coast and the Costa del Sol.
The beach is roughly a fifteen-minute drive away, in line with the property's inland position. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 27 km away as the crow flies, making it the natural arrival point for international travel; Valencia airport is about 159 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol about 369 km in a straight line. By car, the property connects to the regional road network via the AP-7 corridor and local roads towards Torrevieja and Guardamar, with the larger towns of Elche, Murcia and Alicante reachable for day trips. Locally, everything for daily shopping and dining lies within a three-minute walk, and five public transport stops across nine lines provide a basic bus network around the urbanisation and neighbouring towns such as Rojales and Torrevieja. Parking at the property is open parking, so no dedicated garage space is included. For electric car owners, the nearest charging point is 3.8 km away at the Iberdrola Oasis Center.

The location lies at 69 metres above sea level on gently rolling terrain, without steep slopes affecting access to the property. The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.8 °C, with monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in the coldest months to 26 °C in summer, a pattern that supports outdoor living for most of the year and makes the garden, terraces and solarium usable across the seasons. The swimming season lasts about five months, during which sea temperatures hold at 20 °C or above, typically from late spring into early autumn. Winters are mild enough that heating needs stay limited, while the west-facing solarium captures afternoon and evening sun, particularly pleasant in the cooler months. The area records 32 local public holidays per year, reflecting a busy local festivities calendar. Rainfall is modest, consistent with the semi-arid south of the Alicante province, though the available data does not include precise annual figures.

The Costa Blanca South beaches are approximately a fifteen-minute drive away, offering a stretch of wide sandy coastline between Guardamar del Segura and Torrevieja. The Marina de les Dunes marina, 7.6 km away in a straight line, adds a waterfront option for dining and strolls. Golf is a defining leisure feature of this area: Club de Golf La Finca lies 6.9 km from the property and Club de Golf Villamartín 14.9 km, both within a short drive. For everyday sport, Centro Deportivo La Raqueta (3.4 km) and the municipal Polideportivo El Molino (3.5 km) cover racquet sports and general training, while a taekwondo club operates 5.0 km away. Closer to home, the communal swimming pool serves residents of the urbanisation, and the private garden has space for installing a private pool if a new owner chooses to add one. The roughly 25 restaurants within two kilometres provide year-round dining options rather than a purely seasonal offer.
