The property offers 133 m² of living space across two floors, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a private pool, solarium and solar panels. Built in 2001, the house is completed and available for immediate occupation. The surrounding area combines urban convenience with proximity to three golf courses, with the nearest beaches roughly 5.6 km away. The asking price is 349,990 euros.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
El Galan sits between Villamartin and La Fuente, within the Orihuela Costa municipal area of Alicante province. The setting is urban with amenities within walking distance, while the nearest coastline lies approximately 5.6 km away. Three golf clubs are located within 3 km, and the nearest larger supermarket is 1.9 km from the property.
The property functions as a two-storey detached villa with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two fitted kitchens, a living room with fireplace, covered terraces, a roof solarium, private gardens and a private swimming pool. Additional usable space includes a gym area, summer kitchen, storage rooms and off-road parking. Solar panels and an alarm system are installed.
This is not a new-build development. The villa was completed in 2001 (indicative) and is described as in excellent condition, with a renovated ground-floor bathroom. Purchase therefore involves a resale transaction rather than an off-plan commitment, with no construction-phase waiting time or phased payment structure.
The property does not offer seafront or first-line coastal positioning; beaches are roughly 5.6 km away. There is no mention of community facilities such as a communal pool or on-site management. Public transport is limited to two lines with two stops, and the nearest EV charging point is 4.5 km away. The nearest hospital is approximately 11 km from the property.
This property fits several recognisable situations. Buyers seeking a detached house with a private pool, rather than an apartment with shared facilities, will find the layout and outdoor space consistent with that requirement. Households planning seasonal or partial relocation may value the two-floor layout with two kitchens, which allows guests or family members a degree of independence. Buyers prioritising golf access will note that three courses lie within 3 km. Families considering year-round residence may take into account the proximity of El Limonar International School, about five minutes away, and the presence of a year-round residential community of approximately 11,900 inhabitants in the surrounding area. The property may be less suitable for buyers who want to walk to the beach daily, given the 5.6 km distance, or for those dependent on public transport, given the limited network. A car is convenient, though not required for every errand given walkable local amenities. Buyers focused primarily on energy performance certificates for new construction should note this is a 2001 build with retrofitted solar panels rather than a newly certified dwelling. In summary, the property aligns with buyers wanting an established, immediately habitable detached home in a quiet inland residential setting with golf and coastal amenities a short drive away.
The villa is described as being in excellent condition, with specific reference to a renovated ground-floor bathroom. Interior features include fitted wardrobes, two fitted kitchens and a living area with high ceilings and a fireplace. Climate control covers both hot and cold air conditioning, and solar panels contribute to reducing electricity consumption, a relevant feature given the roughly 3,822 annual sunshine hours in the region. Security provisions include an alarm system and a safe. Exterior finishes comprise a covered terrace, a private terrace and a roof solarium, along with terraced garden areas and a summer kitchen. A private pool with an outdoor solar shower is present, as is a gym space and multiple storage rooms. Off-road parking is included on the plot. Photography indicates a modern decorative standard in the living areas and functional use of ancillary spaces, including a garage area currently used for exercise equipment and bicycle storage. As a 2001 construction, buyers may reasonably commission a technical survey to verify the condition of the roof solarium waterproofing, pool installation and solar panel system, which are typical review points for properties of this age. No energy certificate rating is stated in the available data, so this should be requested during due diligence.
The property is offered at 349,990 euros as a completed resale villa. At 133 m² of built space, this equates to roughly 2,630 euros per m², with the price also reflecting the private pool, solarium, solar panels, gym and off-road parking rather than floor area alone. Within the wider regional market, comparable new-build apartments in Torrevieja start from around 160,000-169,000 euros, and apartments at Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso from around 227,000 euros, placing this detached property in a higher segment. As a resale transaction, the price is a fixed asking price rather than a phased off-plan structure.
Daily life in this villa revolves around its two-storey layout and outdoor spaces. The ground floor contains the three bedrooms, a fitted kitchen with garden access, a renovated bathroom and a storage room, which suits a conventional sleeping-and-daytime arrangement. The first floor functions as a separate living zone, with a living area featuring high ceilings and a fireplace, a second fitted kitchen and a bathroom. From here, access leads to a private terrace and onward to the roof solarium. This split layout allows part of the house to be used semi-independently, which may suit households with guests or older children. Outside, the private pool, gardens, terraced areas and summer kitchen extend the usable living space for much of the year, supported by the region's approximately 3,822 sunshine hours annually. Air conditioning provides both hot and cold climate control, supplementing the fireplace in cooler months. El Galan itself is a quiet residential area with a small commercial centre of its own, including tapas bars and restaurants. Villamartin Plaza, roughly five minutes away by car, offers a wider selection of bars, restaurants, banks and supermarkets, while La Fuente Commercial Centre is about three minutes away. La Zenia Boulevard, a large shopping complex with over 150 outlets, is around ten minutes' drive. With an east-south orientation, the terraces receive morning and midday sun, and the elevated position at 148 metres above sea level provides views towards the mountains and, distantly, the sea.
El Galan functions as a residential urbanisation rather than a tourist resort, which shapes the rhythm of daily life. Amenities are within walking distance, including a small commercial area with tapas bars, an Indian restaurant and small retail outlets. A supermarket lies 1.9 km away and four pharmacies operate within a 2 km radius. The nearest hospital is approximately 11 km away, a factor relevant for permanent residents. Mobility is car-convenient: Villamartin Plaza is about five minutes by car, La Fuente Commercial Centre about three minutes, and La Zenia Boulevard with its 150-plus shops around ten minutes. Public transport consists of two lines with two stops, sufficient for occasional trips but not for car-free living in most cases. The area sits at 148 metres elevation with a level to gently sloping urban character. With around 11,900 residents in the locality, the area maintains activity outside the summer season, in contrast to purely holiday-oriented zones along the coast. The surrounding region records 32 local public holidays per year, reflecting an active municipal festival calendar. For recreation beyond the garden and pool, sports facilities include Villamartin Golf at 2.3 km and the Polideportivo Municipal at 3.9 km, plus the coastal marinas at 5.9 km and 9.6 km.
The map shows El Galan's position between Villamartin and La Fuente, roughly 5.6 km inland from the Orihuela Costa beaches. The three golf courses surrounding the area to the north and west are clearly visible, as is the relationship to the coastal strip, Torrevieja to the north-east and the access routes towards the AP-7 corridor.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
El Galan is positioned within the Orihuela Costa zone of southern Alicante province, between the established urbanisations of Villamartin and La Fuente, and inland from the Campoamor coastline. The wider area lies south of Torrevieja and north of the Mar Menor and Cartagena region. The nearest major regional reference points in the available data are considerably further afield, Jerez de la Frontera at 47 km, Seville at 66 km and Cadiz at 68 km, reflecting that the property sits on the Costa Blanca rather than the Costa del Sol, with Alicante-Elche airport serving as the principal international gateway. Within its immediate region, El Galan occupies a mid-market residential position between the high-density apartment zones of Torrevieja and the golf-urbanisation belt of Villamartin and Campoamor.
Distances to key destinations, measured in straight lines, are as follows: beaches at Playa de Aguamarina (5.6 km), Playa Fosil (5.8 km) and Playa de Campoamor - La Glea (5.8 km), all Blue Flag coastal stretches within a ten-minute drive. Golf access is a defining feature: Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 1.7 km, Club de Golf Villamartin at 2.3 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 2.9 km. Shopping ranges from a 1.9 km supermarket to the large La Zenia Boulevard complex roughly ten minutes by car. Healthcare includes a pharmacy at 2.2 km and a hospital at 11 km. EV charging points from Iberdrola and Galp are located 4.5-4.6 km away. Airports require planning: Alicante-Elche (ALC) is the practical regional airport, while Gibraltar (GIB) lies approximately 83 km and Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) approximately 104 km in straight-line terms.

The climate data points to a Mediterranean pattern with mild winters and warm summers: average temperatures range from 11°C to 26°C, with an annual mean of 18.9°C. Historical sunshine hours total approximately 3,822 per year, among the higher figures for mainland Spain, which supports the practical use of the pool, solarium and terraced outdoor spaces for most of the year. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts roughly six months. The property sits at 148 metres above sea level, elevated relative to the coastline, which contributes to the mountain and distant sea views and provides a slight moderating effect on summer heat compared with beach-level locations. Rainfall in this part of Alicante province is low overall, though occasional autumn downpours are typical of the region. The inland position means the microclimate is marginally warmer in summer and cooler in winter than directly on the shore, a difference the installed hot and cold air conditioning and fireplace are designed to address.

The nearest beaches, all within 5.6-5.8 km, form part of the Orihuela Costa stretch, with Campoamor Beach holding Blue Flag status. Playa de Aguamarina and Playa Fosil offer additional options within a ten-minute drive. For boating and waterfront recreation, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero is 5.9 km away and Real Club Nautico 9.6 km. Golf is the strongest recreational asset within the immediate vicinity: three courses, Real Club de Golf Campoamor, Villamartin and Las Ramblas de Orihuela, lie within 2.9 km, an unusual concentration that defines much of the area's seasonal and residential character. Other sports facilities include Villamartin Golf sports centre at 2.3 km and the Polideportivo Municipal at 3.9 km. On the property itself, recreation is anchored by the private pool, gym space, summer kitchen and solarium, reducing dependence on external facilities for daily exercise and outdoor living.

Within its price bracket, this villa competes with a different product type than the new-build comparables in the wider market. Apartments at Palangre Beach in Torrevieja start from around 160,000 euros and Sun & Center key-ready apartments from 169,000 euros, while Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in El Raso starts from around 227,000 euros. All three are apartment developments, meaning buyers at those price points obtain smaller built areas and shared facilities rather than a detached structure with a private pool. At 349,990 euros for 133 m² of detached living space with private pool, solarium, gym and off-road parking, this property addresses buyers specifically seeking a house rather than an apartment, a segment less saturated on the southern Costa Blanca. Locationally, El Galan trades coastal frontage for a quieter, year-round residential character. Torrevieja offers denser urban services and beach proximity but with correspondingly higher noise and traffic levels; El Raso and surrounding urbanisations near La Mata sit closer to natural parkland but further from the golf cluster. El Galan's defining regional advantage is the golf concentration: three courses within 2.9 km is matched by few locations on the Costa Blanca. Its trade-offs are the 5.6 km distance to beaches, limited public transport of two lines, and an 11 km distance to the nearest hospital. For buyers weighing Mediterranean lifestyle factors, the area records around 3,822 sunshine hours, a six-month swimming season and an 18.9°C annual mean, figures comparable with the southern Costa Blanca generally and slightly more continental than beach-level microclimates due to the 148 m elevation.
