This two-bedroom apartment is located in Torrevieja, a coastal city of roughly 98,500 residents on the southern Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. The property forms part of an existing building completed in 1970 (indicative) and offers 54 m² of living space with one bathroom. The setting is urban and walkable: a supermarket sits within 354 metres, the beach at Playa del Cura is about 1.2 km away, and the surrounding neighbourhood provides an extensive range of restaurants, pharmacies, banks and cafés. With fourteen public transport lines and fifty bus stops in the area, daily life here can function without a car. The listing price is €144,969.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits within the built-up fabric of Torrevieja, roughly 1.2, 1.3 km from the Playa del Cura beachfront. The terrain towards the sea is essentially flat, with an average gradient of 0.8%. Alicante-Elche Airport lies approximately 35 km away in a straight line. The immediate area is residential-commercial rather than resort-based, with a supermarket, pharmacy and multiple bus stops within a short walk.
The property functions as a compact urban dwelling: two bedrooms, one bathroom and 54 m² of floor area, suitable for a couple, a small family or use as a holiday base. The photographs show a terrace with outdoor furniture and bedrooms with outward views, indicating some private outdoor space. Daily needs, groceries, pharmacy, banking, dining, are met on foot, which reduces dependence on a vehicle.
This is not a new-build project. The building dates from 1970 (completion year is indicative), meaning the property is delivered in existing, renovated-or-to-be-updated condition depending on its current interior state. There is no construction phase or developer delivery schedule; the transaction is a resale purchase with immediate availability. Buyers should expect building standards typical of its era rather than current regulations.
The property has one bathroom only and a modest 54 m² floor area, which limits space for larger households. It is an urban apartment without private garden, pool or dedicated parking indicated in the listing data. There is no golf course, marina or natural park within immediate walking distance; the nearest golf facilities are 8.7 km or more away. The 1970 construction date means no modern energy-efficiency certification is stated.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a low-maintenance second home on the Costa Blanca will find the walkable location and year-round services practical: no car is strictly necessary, and the airport at Alicante is roughly 35 km away. A couple or single buyer intending permanent residence benefits from the urban infrastructure, supermarket at 354 m, pharmacy at 576 m, hospital at 3.4 km and 14 bus lines. Investors may note that the €144,969 entry price undercuts comparable Torrevieja listings by €10,000, 25,000, which matters in a rental market driven by summer demand and a five-month swimming season. The property is less suited to buyers needing two bathrooms, generous square footage, private parking or communal pool facilities, none of which are indicated. Those prioritising golf-centric living will find the nearest courses 8.7, 11 km away, requiring a vehicle. Buyers wanting new-build standards, current energy certification, modern insulation, developer warranties, should note the 1970 construction date. In short, the profile matches value-conscious, car-independent coastal living in a genuine Spanish city, rather than a resort-style or newly built product.
As a resale apartment in a 1970 building, the finishing level is determined by the current interior condition and any works carried out by previous owners, not by a developer specification. The listing photographs show a furnished, habitable state: a terrace with outdoor furniture, bedrooms with bedding and window views, and a balcony area used for outdoor dining. No data is provided on the kitchen, appliances, window frames, air conditioning or heating systems, and buyers should verify these during a viewing or technical inspection. For a building of this age, typical points of due diligence include electrical wiring, plumbing, and the state of the community-run building fabric, all of which fall under shared-owner responsibility through the community of owners (comunidad de propietarios). No energy-performance certificate details are stated; Spanish law requires a valid certificate for sale, so one should be requested. Structural and façade matters would be governed by the building's ITE (technical building inspection) status, which applies to older residential blocks in the Valencian Community. The practical implication for buyers is that renovation budgets, if desired, are additional to the €144,969 asking price, and that the condition of individual units in 1970s buildings varies widely. An independent survey is a standard step for this type of purchase.
The asking price is €144,969 for a 54 m², two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment, which equates to roughly €2,680 per square metre. In the local comparable set, this sits below nearby listings: Apartments Palangre Beach from €160,000, Panorama Beach from €155,000 and Edificio Sun & Center from €169,000. The price position reflects the building's 1970 origin and the single-bathroom layout rather than any locational deficit, as the immediate area is among the most amenity-dense parts of Torrevieja. Availability is immediate, as this is a completed resale property with no construction timeline. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs and any interior modernisation.
Daily life around this apartment follows an urban coastal rhythm. The morning routine can be run entirely on foot: the supermarket is 354 metres away and a pharmacy 576 metres, both a few minutes' walk. With 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies and 24 banks within a two-kilometre radius, the neighbourhood operates as a full-service Spanish town rather than a seasonal resort strip. That density has a practical consequence: residents are not tied to a car, and the fourteen bus lines and fifty stops in the municipality connect the area to wider Torrevieja and neighbouring towns. The beach at Playa del Cura, about 1.2 km away with a flat 0.8% gradient, works as an extension of daily life, an evening walk or a morning swim requires no planning. With a five-month swimming season (water temperature of 20°C or above) and a mean annual temperature of 18.7°C, outdoor use of the terrace shown in the photographs is realistic for much of the year. The apartment's compact 54 m² footprint and two-bedroom, one-bathroom layout suit a household of two or three, or use as a part-time residence. As a city of nearly 100,000 people, Torrevieja does not close in winter; services, healthcare and transport continue year-round, which distinguishes living here from quieter resort villages along the coast. The nearest hospital is 3.4 km away and sports facilities such as the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina (1.2 km) sit within easy reach.
The immediate environment is dense, urban and service-oriented. Within a two-kilometre radius the data counts 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists and 24 banks, figures consistent with central Torrevieja rather than a suburban fringe. Three schools lie within that radius, which matters for families considering year-round residence. Mobility is a defining feature: the municipality has 14 public transport lines and 50 stops, and the flat terrain (the city sits at roughly 20 m elevation with a 0.8% slope toward the sea) makes cycling and walking realistic for most daily trips. The seafront at Playa del Cura is 1.2, 1.3 km away, with the smaller Cala del Palangre at 1.5 km. Sports infrastructure includes the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina at 1.2 km and CF Torrevieja facilities at 1.4 km; the Real Club Náutico marina is 1.1 km away. The Torre del Moro viewpoint at 3.0 km and La Pinada at 4.0 km offer nearby walking destinations outside the urban core. With 32 local festivals per year, the calendar is active throughout the seasons.
The map shows the property's position within central Torrevieja, with the Mediterranean coastline and Playa del Cura about 1.2 km to the east. Markers indicate the supermarket (354 m), pharmacy (576 m), marina (1.1 km), hospital (3.4 km) and the golf corridor 8.7 km southward. The flat terrain between the apartment and the sea is reflected in the street layout.

Torrevieja sits on the southern Costa Blanca, roughly 35 km south of Alicante airport and immediately north of the Orihuela Costa strip. Within this sub-region it functions as the principal urban centre: larger than neighbouring towns such as Guardamar del Segura to the north and Orihuela Costa's residential zones to the south. Its position between the salt lagoons and the sea, at minimal elevation, gives it a flat, low-rise coastal profile compared with the hillier Alcorcón-side developments further inland. Golf-oriented urbanisations such as Villamartín and Campoamor lie 8, 11 km south.
Key distances from the property: Playa del Cura beach 1.2 km (flat, walkable); supermarket 354 m; pharmacy 576 m; hospital 3.4 km; Real Club Náutico marina 1.1 km.

Torrevieja records approximately 3,854 sunshine hours per year historically, with a mean annual temperature of 18.7°C and a seasonal range of roughly 12, 26°C. The swimming season, months with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, spans five months, which is shorter than more southern Spanish coasts but supports substantial beach use from late spring into autumn. The city sits at about 20 m above sea level, and the route from the property to Playa del Cura has an average gradient of 0.8%, effectively flat. The surrounding landscape is urban Mediterranean with saline lagoons (the Torrevieja and La Mata salt lakes) forming part of the municipality's 71.8 km² territory, and the La Pinada green area 4.0 km away offers the nearest woodland-style walking space.

Within its immediate comparable set, this apartment is the lowest-priced option: €144,969 against Panorama Beach at €155,000, Apartments Palangre Beach at €160,000 and Edificio Sun & Center at €169,000, all Torrevieja listings. The €10,000, 25,000 gap is explained principally by the building's 1970 origin and the single-bathroom, 54 m² layout, since all four properties share the same city and broadly similar access to the Playa del Cura beachfront. Viewed across the wider southern Costa Blanca, Torrevieja occupies a distinct market position. It is a working city of nearly 100,000 residents with year-round services, which supports both winter occupancy and off-season rental demand, a contrast with the resort urbanisations of Orihuela Costa (Villamartín, La Zenia, Campoamor), where golf-adjacent developments dominate and prices per square metre tend to run higher for new-build stock. Median provincial income in Alicante stands at €15,750, and Torrevieja's housing stock spans 1960s, 70s apartment blocks like this one through to contemporary seafront developments. For buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives, the trade-off is direct: a lower entry price, central walkable location and immediate availability, offset against an older building, an unspecified energy rating and likely renovation budget. Against golf-resort properties 8, 11 km south, the differentiator is car-free daily living versus proximity to courses. Buyers prioritising certified build quality may find the newer comparables more suitable; buyers prioritising price and urban convenience will find this listing positioned at the accessible end of the local market.
