This is a completed detached villa in Los Alcázares, a coastal town on the western shore of the Mar Menor in the province of Murcia. The property was completed in 1995 (indicative) and offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms and 158 m² of living space on a 354 m² plot with a private swimming pool. The town provides everyday amenities within walking distance, including a supermarket 91 m away and a pharmacy 334 m away. The nearest beaches on the Mar Menor lie approximately 6 km away, while golf courses are within 3 km. The property is unfurnished and listed from €450,000.
Within Los Alcázares itself, the recorded comparison is Golden Green Villas, a new-build development starting from €539,900. Against that benchmark, this villa's €450,000 asking price is roughly €90,000 lower, but the comparison is between a 1995-built resale and new construction; new-build pricing typically reflects current regulations, modern insulation and developer warranties, none of which apply here. Buyers effectively choose between paying a premium for new construction or paying less while budgeting for inspection and possible modernisation of a thirty-year-old property. Regionally, Los Alcázares sits in the Murcia market rather than the Costa del Sol corridor around Marbella or Estepona, where detached villas of this size generally command higher entry prices. Murcia's Costa Cálida offers lower provincial income levels, median €15,750, and correspondingly different local price structures for services and maintenance. Compared with Cartagena (20 km) and Murcia city (37 km), Los Alcázares is a smaller, tourism- and residential-oriented municipality; properties there trade access to major urban employment centres for proximity to the Mar Menor and its shallow, warm lagoon. The position of this specific villa, roughly 6 km inland from the shore, is closer to services than the seafront strip but further from the beaches that define the town's appeal, a trade-off mirrored in its pricing relative to frontline properties. Golf accessibility is a genuine regional strength: two courses within 3 km is competitive for the wider south-eastern Spanish coast, where villa stock near two golf clubs typically prices above this level.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in an urban, inland position within Los Alcázares, roughly 6 km from the nearest Mar Menor beaches. Daily amenities, supermarket, pharmacy, cafés and restaurants, are within walking distance, with 26 restaurants and 10 cafés recorded within a 2 km radius. Cartagena is 20 km away and Murcia 37 km. A car is convenient for regional trips but not strictly required for daily errands.
The property suits households seeking space and privacy: four bedrooms, three indoor bathrooms plus a separate outdoor WC, a private pool and outdoor areas on a 354 m² plot. The upper-floor bedroom with en-suite bathroom functions as an independent space for guests or occupants. Central heating and wood flooring are installed, and the property is delivered unfurnished.
This is not a new-build project. The villa was completed in 1995 (indicative) and its construction status is listed as complete. Buyers should therefore assess the building against the standards of its construction period, including the condition of installations, insulation and the pool. No developer guarantees, phase planning or delivery schedules apply, as the property is finished and available.
The property does not offer sea views, a direct beachfront position, furnished delivery, air conditioning as a listed feature, or a garage listed in the recorded data. The pool is recorded as communal in the feature list while the description mentions a private pool, this discrepancy should be verified. The airport distance noted in the dataset appears inconsistent; actual airports lie 65–344 km away.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family needing four bedrooms with separated sleeping arrangements, three ground-floor bedrooms plus an independent en-suite upstairs, will find the layout workable for multi-generational use or regular guests. Buyers seeking a year-round residence rather than a holiday bolt-hole benefit from the walkable urban setting: supermarket, pharmacy, cafés and restaurants are within a few hundred metres, and the town shows year-round activity with 32 local holidays and a resident services base. Households that prioritise a private pool and outdoor space over sea views will find the 354 m² plot a better match than a beachfront apartment, accepting the 6 km distance to the Mar Menor shore. Golfers are within 2.6 km of Roda Golf and 2.7 km of Serena Golf, making regular play practical. The property suits buyers comfortable with a 1995 construction, who should plan inspection of heating, wiring and pool systems. It is less suitable for buyers wanting new-build warranties, furnished delivery, frontline-water position or a car-free coastal setting with the beach at the door, here the beach is a short drive, not a walk.
The property dates from 1995 (indicative) and the recorded finishing features are limited but concrete: wood flooring, a fireplace in the living room, central heating, and air-conditioning units visible in the photographic material, though air conditioning is not listed as an official feature, this should be verified. Bedrooms shown have windows; one bedroom photo shows an en-suite bathroom view. The outdoor area includes a pool with an outdoor shower and a separate outdoor WC, plus a patio with seating. Because the building is roughly thirty years old, the technical assessment should focus on elements typical of that period: insulation standards predating current regulations, electrical installation age, plumbing, and the condition of the central heating boiler and radiators. The pool installation and its filtration system should also be inspected, as should the roof and exterior finishes after three decades of coastal-adjacent exposure. No energy efficiency certificate is recorded in the dataset, so buyers should request it; properties of this age commonly require upgrading to reach current CTE or comparable standards unless works have been carried out. The property is delivered unfurnished, allowing buyers to install their own kitchen equipment and furnishings, but also meaning interior condition should be assessed room by room during viewing rather than from listing images alone.
The villa is listed from €450,000. In the immediate comparison set, Golden Green Villas in Los Alcázares starts from €539,900, which places this property below the nearest recorded new-build comparison point, though the age difference (1995 versus new construction) limits direct comparison. The price reflects a completed, immediately available property rather than an off-plan purchase, so no staged payments apply. Floor area of 158 m² and the 354 m² plot with pool are the main measurable components of the asking price. Buyers should budget separately for furniture, as the property is unfurnished, and for any modernisation of 1995-era installations.
Daily life at this property is organised around an established urban street grid in Los Alcázares rather than a gated resort. The supermarket lies 91 m from the door and the pharmacy 334 m, which means grocery runs and pharmacy visits are walking matters. A tennis club is 100 m away and a public swimming pool 800 m, giving the immediate area a neighbourhood character with year-round activity rather than a purely seasonal one. The villa itself is arranged over two floors: three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the ground floor, and a fourth bedroom with en-suite bathroom upstairs, which can operate independently for guests or as a principal bedroom. The 354 m² plot accommodates a pool, sunbathing space and outdoor dining, with a separate outdoor WC at the pool area. Living rhythm is shaped by the Murcian climate, an annual average temperature of 18.8°C and approximately 3,869 sunshine hours per year support outdoor use of the plot for most of the year. The Mar Menor beaches, 6–7 km away, are close enough for regular trips but require a short drive or cycle. Cartagena and Murcia provide regional services, hospitals and cultural amenities at 20 km and 37 km respectively. The town records 18 public transport lines and 50 stops, so local mobility without a car is partly feasible, though regional travel is easier by vehicle.
Los Alcázares is a former fishing village and spa town on the western shore of the Mar Menor, and the villa sits within its urban fabric rather than in an isolated development. The immediate radius of 2 km contains 26 restaurants, 10 cafés, 5 pharmacies, 11 banks and 3 dentists, a service density that supports full-time residence. The Club de Tenis is 100 m away, a high-performance sports centre 1.2 km, and the public Piscina Ola Azúl 800 m. The Fuente de los Pescadores viewpoint is a 600 m walk. For healthcare, the nearest hospital is 8 km away. The town's promenade and seafront lie roughly 6 km from the property, reachable in under ten minutes by car. Public transport, 18 lines and 50 stops, covers local movement. Cartagena (20 km, population 218,943) and Murcia (37 km, population 462,979) provide regional hospitals, shopping and cultural infrastructure. The area's elevation is only 7 m above sea level, so the terrain is flat and walking or cycling is uncomplicated. Median provincial income of €15,750 provides context for local price levels relative to the property's asking price.
The map shows the property's position within the built-up area of Los Alcázares, west of the Mar Menor. Note the concentration of services within a few hundred metres, the golf courses under 3 km to the south, and the beach line roughly 6 km east. Cartagena, Murcia and Alicante airport mark the wider regional frame.

The local climate is one of the driest and sunniest in Spain: approximately 3,869 sunshine hours per year, an annual average temperature of 18.8°C and a monthly range of roughly 11°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by water temperatures of 20°C or above in the Mar Menor, lasts around five months. The property sits at 7 m above sea level on flat terrain, meaning no slopes on the plot or in the surrounding streets. The Mar Menor, a shallow saltwater lagoon, warms faster than the open Mediterranean, extending comfortable water use in late spring and early autumn. Central heating is installed, relevant for the cooler winter months when night temperatures can fall toward the seasonal minimum.
