This detached villa stands in Ciudad Quesada, in the south of the Alicante province on the Costa Blanca. Built in 2001 and since renovated, the property offers 219 m² of living space on a fully enclosed plot of 711 m². The main house comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms, complemented by a separate studio with its own entrance, kitchen and bathroom. Outside there is a 5 × 10 m private pool, a covered barbecue area, a rooftop sun terrace with panoramic views of the sea and the lakes, and parking within the plot. The asking price is €569,000.
Within Ciudad Quesada itself, the current new-build supply consists mainly of villa projects priced from €549,000 to €690,000. Villas Las Lagunas, key-ready, starts at €649,000; City-Island starts at €690,000; Lo Marabu Villas start at €549,000. At a fixed €569,000, this resale villa positions itself below the two larger new-build projects and roughly in line with the entry level of Lo Marabu, while offering 219 m² of living space and a 711 m² plot, dimensions that new-build villas in this price band often do not match, since developers on the Costa Blanca typically build on smaller plots. The trade-off is age: the villa dates from 2001, whereas the competing projects carry new construction and the warranties that come with it. In the wider region, the villa competes with resales in nearby urbanisations such as Lo Marabú, Ciudad Quesada's neighbouring districts of Rojales, and the Orihuela Costa. Elche at 22 km and Torrevieja nearby offer larger-town alternatives at generally higher densities. The specific strengths here are the independent studio, a feature with rental potential that few new-build competitors include, and the immediate availability without a construction phase. Buyers comparing options should weigh plot size and extra space against modern build standards and energy performance; a technical inspection is the standard instrument for verifying the condition of a 2001 property, and renovation history should be documented during due diligence.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Ciudad Quesada is a residential urbanisation in the Rojales municipality, a short drive inland from the Orihuela Costa. The villa sits at approximately 69 m above sea level, close to golf courses, with the marina at Marina de les Dunes about 7.6 km away as the crow flies. Elche lies 22 km away and Alicante 38 km in a straight line.
The layout suits households needing separate space: a main house with three bedrooms, an ensuite bathroom and fitted wardrobes, plus an independent studio with kitchen and bathroom suitable for guests or rental use. A storage room, basement, indoor garage and two unfinished additional rooms provide room for customisation. Air conditioning and a wood-burning fireplace cover both seasons.
This is not a new-build project. The villa was completed in 2001, has been recently renovated and is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. Two additional rooms remain unfinished, which allows future owners to complete them to their own specification. As an existing home, the purchase process follows resale rather than off-plan procedures.
The property is a resale villa from 2001, so it does not offer new-build warranties or a developer price list. Two rooms are unfinished and require completion work. The house has three bedrooms in the main dwelling; the further capacity comes from the studio. Furniture is included only partially. Beach distance is not specified in the available data, and the sea views are described as panoramic rather than frontline.
This villa fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating permanently to the Costa Blanca benefits from the three-bedroom main house, the ensuite bathroom, the proximity of schools of daily amenities within 2 km, and the year-round character of Ciudad Quesada. Buyers seeking a second home with guest capacity will find the separate studio practical: family can stay independently, and the house does not need to be reorganised around visitors. Those combining private use with rental income can let the studio separately or the entire property seasonally, given the pool, the plot and the five-month swimming season. Handymen or buyers with specific layout wishes may value the two unfinished rooms, which allow customisation, an extra bedroom, a gym or a hobby room, at their own budget and pace. The indoor garage, storage room and basement suit households with considerable equipment, from sports gear to workshop tools. Buyers wanting a brand-new building with developer guarantees should look elsewhere, as should those seeking frontline beach living; this is an inland residential setting with sea views from the terraces rather than direct coastal access. Finally, the property suits those who want to move in without waiting: it is renovated, part furnished and available immediately.
The villa was built in 2001 and is described as recently renovated and in excellent condition. The finishes visible in the property include tiled walls in the bathrooms, a fully fitted kitchen and built-in wardrobes in the bedrooms. Climate control is twofold: air conditioning units for the warm months and a wood-burning fireplace for the cooler ones, which is a common and practical combination in this region where winter nights can drop to around 12°C on monthly average. The main house has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which is ensuite. The separate studio has its own entrance, kitchen and bathroom, finished to a usable standard, which makes it immediately functional for guests or letting. The technical state of a 2001 building is relevant to note: buyers will typically want a technical inspection covering the roof, the pool installation and the electrical system, as original installations of that era may have been partly renewed during the renovation but this should be verified. The two additional unfinished rooms represent deliberate incompleteness rather than defect: they can be completed to the buyer's specification. The 5 × 10 m pool with its own shower, the covered barbecue kitchen and the rooftop solarium are constructed outdoor features rather than simple terraces. Parking is solved on the plot itself, with a spacious indoor garage in addition to open parking space. Furniture is included partly, which reduces initial furnishing costs but leaves room for personal input.
The asking price is a fixed €569,000 for the property as a whole, including the main house, studio, pool, garage and plot. There is no price list or unit variation, as this concerns a single existing home. For context, nearby new-build villa projects in Ciudad Quesada are marketed from €549,000 to €690,000; this villa sits in the middle of that range while offering a larger plot and a completed, rentable studio. The property is key-ready and recently renovated, so no construction period applies. Purchase costs such as transfer tax, notary and registry fees are additional and are set by Spanish law for resale properties.
Ciudad Quesada is an established residential area with a full range of daily amenities within walking or short driving distance. Within 2 km there are around 25 restaurants, two pharmacies, three banks, a café and a dentist, which covers most daily needs without travelling to a larger town. The area has an international, year-round character rather than a purely seasonal one, supported by nine public transport lines and five stops, though a car remains the practical choice for most residents. The villa itself is oriented towards outdoor living: the 711 m² plot holds a 5 × 10 m pool, a lawn, a covered barbecue area for outdoor dining, a covered balcony and a rooftop sun terrace. The rooftop terrace opens views over the sea to the east and the salt lakes of Torrevieja, which are the dominant landscape feature of this part of the Costa Blanca. Daily routines here typically revolve around the pool and terrace in the warmer months, from roughly May to October, and around the fireplace and air conditioning in the shoulder season. The separate studio with its own entrance adds flexibility: it can serve visiting family, be let out independently, or function as a work-from-home space. Two sports centres lie within 3.5 km, and the golf courses of La Finca (6.9 km) and Villamartín (14.9 km) are both reachable within a quarter of an hour by car. The E-15 motorway corridor connects the area to the coast and to Alicante airport, about 27 km away in a straight line.
Life in Ciudad Quesada is organised around a compact town centre with shops, restaurants and services, surrounded by residential streets and villa urbanisations. The villa lies within 2 km of 25 restaurants, two pharmacies, three banks and a dentist, a density that supports year-round living rather than seasonal visits. For sport, the Centro Deportivo La Raqueta is 3.4 km away and the municipal Polideportivo El Molino 3.5 km, both within a five-minute drive. Golf plays a notable role in the immediate region: Club de Golf La Finca lies 6.9 km away and Villamartín 14.9 km, both as the crow flies. The salt lakes of Torrevieja shape the landscape and the microclimate, and the rooftop terrace of this villa overlooks them. Elche, with 235,000 inhabitants and full urban facilities including a major hospital, is 22 km away in a straight line; Alicante city is 38 km. Public transport exists in the form of nine lines with five stops in the area, practical for local trips, but a car remains the standard mode of transport for most residents of villa districts like this one.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Ciudad Quesada sits in the Rojales municipality, on the southern Costa Blanca between Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa, roughly 38 km from Alicante city. The area belongs to the belt of residential urbanisations that stretches between the salt lakes and the coast, characterised by villa plots, golf courses and an international population. Within this belt, Quesada is one of the more established and complete urbanisations, with its own commercial centre. Compared with the Costa del Sol further south, this stretch of coast is generally more affordably priced while offering comparable sunshine hours and a similar swimming season.
The nearest major airport is Alicante-Elche (ALC), approximately 27 km away in a straight line, typically a 30 to 35-minute drive, which keeps transfer times short for international arrivals and departures. Valencia airport is 159 km away and Málaga 369 km, which places the property firmly in the Alicante catchment area. By road, the AP-7 and A-37 motorways connect Ciudad Quesada with Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and the wider Costa Blanca; all distances mentioned here are straight-line, so actual road distances are somewhat longer. The marina at Marina de les Dunes is 7.6 km away, giving access to the coast and water sports. For electric vehicle owners, an Iberdrola fast-charging point stands at the Oasis Center, 3.8 km from the villa. Daily errands are possible on foot or by bike within the urbanisation, while the nine bus lines serve the wider Rojales, Torrevieja area.

The climate data for this location shows an average annual temperature of 18.8°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. This means mild winters where the wood-burning fireplace is sufficient for the cooler evenings, and warm summers where the pool and air conditioning carry the season. The swimming season lasts about five months, with sea water at 20°C or warmer, roughly May through October. The villa stands at 69 m above sea level on largely flat terrain, which makes walking and cycling around the urbanisation easy and avoids the hillside staircases found in many coastal towns. The salt lakes of Torrevieja nearby contribute both the panoramic views from the rooftop terrace and a relatively dry, stable microclimate. Rainfall is low and concentrated outside the summer months, so outdoor living on the terraces and around the pool is the default for most of the year.

The beaches of the Orihuela Costa and Guardamar del Segura lie a short drive west and east of Ciudad Quesada, with the coast at roughly 7 to 8 km as the crow flies, the marina at Marina de les Dunes marks the nearest coastal reference point at 7.6 km. Golf is the strongest recreational card of the immediate area: Club de Golf La Finca at 6.9 km is an 18-hole course set in a valley, while Villamartín at 14.9 km is one of the established courses of the Orihuela Costa golf circuit. For everyday sport, two centres lie within 3.5 km, including the Centro Deportivo La Raqueta. The salt lakes offer walking and birdwatching routes, including flamingo colonies in season. On the plot itself, recreation is private: a 5 × 10 m pool, a lawn, a covered barbecue area and a rooftop sun terrace mean that swimming, outdoor dining and sunbathing do not require leaving home. The two-room unfinished space could also be turned into a home gym.
