This is a completed one-bedroom apartment of 54 m² in central Torrevieja, Alicante province, on the Costa Blanca. The building dates from 1970 and the unit has been renovated internally, with air conditioning, a lift, and a private east-facing terrace of approximately 6 m². The asking price is from €167,000. The property sits in a fully urbanised neighbourhood roughly 1.2 km from Playa del Cura, with a supermarket within about 350 metres and a pharmacy under 600 metres. Daily life here functions without a car, which is the defining practical characteristic of the location. Alicante-Elche airport lies approximately 35 km away in a straight line.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment is in the built-up centre of Torrevieja, a city of roughly 98,500 inhabitants. Playa del Cura is about 1.2 km away on flat terrain, with Cala del Palangre slightly further. Avenida Habaneras, the main retail axis, is within a short walk. The immediate surroundings are dense urban fabric with shops, cafés and restaurants rather than a quiet residential suburb.
The property functions as a compact urban residence: one bedroom, one bathroom, a semi-open kitchen, and a living area opening onto a small east-facing terrace. It suits occupancy patterns based on short stays, single-person residence, or rental use. The fourth-floor position with two lifts and step-free access addresses basic mobility needs. Space is limited for households requiring more than one bedroom.
This is not a new-build project. The building was completed in 1970 and the apartment has since been renovated internally, with a modernised bathroom, updated kitchen, and replacement furnishings. Delivery is immediate, as the unit is finished and furnished. Buyers should treat the stated completion date as indicative and verify the actual technical condition through standard survey procedures.
The property offers one bedroom and 54 m² of floor area, which limits its suitability for larger households. No parking space, storage room, communal pool, or garden forms part of the listing data. It is a resale unit in a 1970 building, not a new development with warranty coverage under modern building standards. The nearest EV charging point listed is 5.8 km away, indicating no charging facility at the building itself.
The property matches several recognisable situations. A single buyer or couple seeking a low-maintenance coastal base within walking distance of services fits the profile directly: the compact floor plan, lift access and furnished condition reduce the practical threshold of setting up residence. Buyers intending seasonal use benefit from the year-round urban context, since shops and restaurants do not close outside summer as they do in some resort zones. Investors evaluating rental potential will note that central Torrevieja with a walkable beach attracts both holiday and long-term tenants; comparable one-bedroom stock trades between roughly €155,000 and €169,000, giving a market reference. Those who do not wish to own or rent a car locally are also served, as the supermarket, pharmacy, cafés and transport stops are on foot. Conversely, the property does not fit households needing a second bedroom, a private parking space, a pool, or substantial storage. Buyers prioritising silence may find the city-centre setting busier than outlying residential districts such as those near the golf courses at 8-11 km. Retirees wanting step-free access and proximity to medical facilities, the hospital at 3.4 km, meet those conditions here, provided the one-bedroom layout matches their needs.
The listing describes a full internal renovation of a 1970 building unit. The bathroom has been rebuilt with a walk-in shower and a new washing machine. The kitchen is a modern semi-open layout with appliances including an induction hob, visible in the photographic material, and a large window for light and ventilation. The bedroom contains a modern fitted wardrobe and, unusually, a home cinema projector is included. The living and dining area has split air conditioning, and the property is sold fully furnished, including a television, allowing occupation from the date of completion. The terrace of about 6 m² faces east. Structural and communal elements, however, belong to the original 1970 building, and the technical description does not state whether the façade, roof, windows or building services have been upgraded. No energy performance certificate rating is recorded in the available data. Buyers should verify the condition of the electrical installation, plumbing beyond the renovated bathroom, and the communal areas, lifts, roof and stairwell, through an independent technical survey, which is standard practice for Spanish resale property of this age. Two lifts and step-free access are documented. No parking, storage room or communal leisure facilities appear in the property data, so the quality proposition rests on the interior renovation rather than on building-wide amenities.
The asking price is from €167,000 for a completed, furnished one-bedroom unit of 54 m². Comparable listings in Torrevieja provide context: Palangre Beach apartments start at €160,000, Edificio Sun & Center key-ready units at €169,000, and Panorama Beach at €155,000. This places the property within the prevailing band for renovated one-bedroom units in the town centre. At 54 m² the price corresponds to roughly €3,100 per square metre. Buyers should account for purchase costs, community fees for the building, and the age of the 1970 structure when comparing against new-build alternatives.
Daily life around this apartment follows an urban coastal rhythm. The supermarket sits roughly 354 metres from the door and the pharmacy 576 metres, so routine shopping is a matter of minutes on foot. Within a two-kilometre radius the environment intelligence counts 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 24 banks and 27 dentists, which reflects the density of a mid-sized Spanish city centre rather than a resort enclave. The walk to Playa del Cura covers about 1.2 km on an almost flat gradient of 0.8%, making the beach a realistic part of a daily routine rather than an excursion. The living space itself is arranged around a semi-open kitchen with a large window, a bedroom facing the interior courtyard, and a 6 m² east-facing terrace off the living room. East orientation means direct sun in the morning and shade later in the day, a pattern suited to breakfast outdoors and cooler evenings. Split air conditioning covers the main living area. Because the building is in the city centre, noise and activity levels are those of a year-round Spanish town, not a seasonal development. Torrevieja's population of about 98,500 sustains services through winter, including 14 public transport lines and 50 stops, three schools within two kilometres, and a hospital at 3.4 km. A car is not required for daily errands, though parking in central streets follows normal urban conditions. The Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina sports centre is 1.2 km away and the Real Club Náutico marina 1.1 km, adding structured recreation within walking range.
The surrounding neighbourhood operates as a year-round Spanish urban centre. Within a two-kilometre radius there are 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, three schools, 27 pharmacies and 24 bank branches, a level of provision consistent with permanent residence rather than seasonal tourism. The nearest supermarket is 354 metres away and the hospital 3.4 km. Torrevieja's population of roughly 98,500 inhabitants sustains public services throughout the year, and 32 local festivities per year mark the municipal calendar. Public transport covers 14 lines with 50 stops, connecting the centre to outlying districts and beaches. Terrain is essentially flat, the municipality sits at about 20 metres above sea level with a 0.8 per cent slope towards the beach, so walking and cycling are practical modes for most daily trips. The Real Club Náutico marina (1.1 km) and the Palacio de Deportes sports centre (1.2 km) anchor recreation within walking distance. Streets in the centre carry normal urban traffic and pedestrian flows; buyers sensitive to noise should assess the specific block at different times of day.
The map shows the apartment's position in central Torrevieja, with Playa del Cura 1.2 km to the east on flat terrain. The supermarket (354 m) and pharmacy (576 m) sit within the immediate block cluster, and Avenida Habaneras connects the centre to the Hospital de Torrevieja at 3.4 km. Alicante-Elche airport lies roughly 35 km north-east along the coast.

Torrevieja sits on the southern Costa Blanca in Alicante province, roughly 35 km south of Alicante city and its airport, and adjacent to the Orihuela Costa strip. Within its own market it functions as the principal urban centre of the southern shoreline, larger and more service-dense than the resort developments of Orihuela Costa or the inland golf districts of Villamartín and Campoamor. The city is Spanish-speaking, one of the few such areas in the Valencian Community. For this property, that regional position means urban services at village-scale prices: the price band of €155,000-€169,000 for one-bedroom units is comparable to nearby resort blocks while carrying city-centre amenities.
Playa del Cura and Platja del Cura lie approximately 1.2-1.3 km from the property, with Cala del Palangre at 1.4-1.5 km, all reachable on foot along flat terrain. Alicante-Elche airport is roughly 35 km away in a straight line, typically under an hour by road; Valencia airport lies about 168 km away and Málaga approximately 368 km. Golf courses cluster further inland: Villamartín at 8.7 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 10 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 11 km, all requiring a car. Electric-vehicle charging is available at Iberdrola Oasis Center (7.5 km), Ionity La Zenia (8.3 km) and a nearer point at 5.8 km. The hospital is 3.4 km away and the supermarket and pharmacy under 600 metres. In short: beaches and daily services are walkable; airports, golf and charging infrastructure require transport.

Torrevieja records an average annual temperature of 18.7°C within a range of roughly 12-26°C, and approximately 3,854 sunshine hours per year, figures that support outdoor use of the terrace and beach throughout most of the calendar. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of at least 20°C, extends to about five months. The town lies at only 20 metres above sea level with a near-level 0.8 per cent gradient towards the coast, so no significant climbs separate the apartment from the beach. The east-facing terrace receives morning sun, shifting to shade in the afternoon. Natural surroundings beyond the urban fabric include the viewpoints at Torre del Moro (3.0 km) and La Pinada (4.0 km), and the La Mata beach area north of the centre, part of the municipality's coastal protection zone. There are no mountains or significant green belt directly adjacent; the setting is a low-lying Mediterranean coastal plain.

Within the Torrevieja resale market, this property sits in the middle of the local one-bedroom band. Palangre Beach apartments start at €160,000 and Panorama Beach at €155,000, while key-ready units at Edificio Sun & Center begin at €169,000, a spread of roughly €14,000 that largely reflects position, finish level and view. At €167,000 for 54 m², this unit prices at approximately €3,100 per square metre, consistent with renovated stock in the town centre. The regional context matters when comparing. New-build developments on the southern Costa Blanca, particularly around Orihuela Costa and the golf valleys of Villamartín and Campoamor, typically start higher per square metre and offer communal pools, parking and modern energy ratings, none of which form part of this listing. What the 1970 building trades against that is centrality: a walkable supermarket, pharmacy, hospital at 3.4 km, and a year-round service economy that seasonal resort complexes do not replicate in winter. Buyers comparing coastal options should also weigh Alicante province more broadly. Median provincial income of €15,750 shapes local rental levels and long-term resale liquidity differently from the Costa del Sol, where Marbella-adjacent stock trades at several times this price per square metre. Torrevieja's market has historically been driven by international second-home demand, which supports turnover in this segment but also introduces seasonal vacancy patterns in central districts. For a buyer whose priority is car-free access to the Mediterranean at an entry-level price point, the regional alternatives are limited: equivalent walkable coastal centres further north, such as those near Alicante city itself, generally command higher prices per square metre, while cheaper inland options sacrifice the beach proximity that defines this location. The nearest comparable lifestyle bundle, flat terrain, 3,854 sunshine hours, Blue Flag beaches and urban services within one kilometre, exists in few places at this price level on either the Costa Blanca or the Costa del Sol.
