The property sits in a building completed in 1970, offering 109 m² of living space in an established urban setting. Playa del Cura beach lies roughly 1.2 km away, while a supermarket (354 m), pharmacy (576 m) and numerous restaurants and cafés are within walking distance. The apartment is finished and ready for occupation, listed at €239,900. The building includes a communal rooftop terrace and storage area. Central heating is installed, and parking is available on the surrounding streets.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment is situated in the urban core of Torrevieja, approximately 1.2 km from Playa del Cura and other beaches. Shops, pharmacies and schools are within walking distance, and the city's marina and sports facilities lie nearby. The terrain towards the coast is flat, with an average gradient of 0.8 percent. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 35 km away in a straight line.
The property offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms across 109 m², suitable for family use, guest accommodation or a home office. Central heating provides year-round climate control. The building includes communal rooftop space and private storage. Daily errands such as grocery shopping and pharmacy visits can be completed on foot, reducing dependence on a car for routine needs.
This is not a new-build development. The building dates from 1970 and the apartment is completed and available for immediate occupation. Interiors have been modernised, including the kitchen with granite worktops and updated bathrooms. Delivery is therefore not subject to construction timelines; the transaction process follows resale procedures rather than off-plan payment stages.
The property does not include private parking; parking is on the street. There is no private garden or swimming pool, and no private lift-accessed garage space is listed. The building originates from 1970, meaning construction standards of that period apply rather than current new-build regulations. Energy efficiency certification data is not specified. An electric vehicle charging point is 5.8 km away.

This property fits several recognisable situations. Buyers seeking a year-round residence in an established Spanish coastal town will find the urban infrastructure relevant: schools within the vicinity, a hospital at 3.4 km, and a supermarket and pharmacy within a few hundred metres. The three-bedroom layout with two bathrooms suits families or households that regularly host guests. Buyers intending part-year residence abroad, using the property for extended stays outside the tourist season, benefit from central heating and a location that remains serviced through winter, when some resort-orientated areas of the Spanish coast reduce their offering. Those who prefer not to depend on a car for daily life will find the walkable density and 14 public transport lines practical. The property may also suit buyers prioritising interior space per euro over new-build finishes; at 109 m² it is larger than most new developments at a similar price in the region. Conversely, buyers requiring private parking, a pool, or contemporary energy performance standards should note these are not part of the offering. The 1970 construction date means the building predates current efficiency regulations, which may be relevant for buyers comparing long-term running costs. Households sensitive to summer-season crowds in central Torrevieja should factor in the area's popularity between June and September, while those planning rental use should verify local licensing requirements independently.
The apartment has been modernised internally while retaining its original structural context from 1970. Photographs of the interior show a bathroom with toilet, bidet and vanity unit; a bedroom fitted with desk and wardrobe; a dining area with television connection and glass-panelled door; a hallway with a stained-glass door detail; and a kitchen with fitted cabinets and granite worktops. Granite worktops are a durable, mid-to-high-range surface material common in Spanish renovations of this period's housing stock. Central heating is listed among the property's features, which distinguishes it from coastal apartments equipped only with air conditioning; this supports comfortable winter use. The stained-glass hallway door is a period detail typical of Spanish buildings from this era, indicating that not all original elements were replaced during refurbishment. Buyers should note that specific technical details, boiler type and age, electrical installation condition, window glazing, and thermal insulation performance, are not specified in the available data and warrant verification during a viewing or technical survey. Buildings from 1970 predate the Spanish Technical Building Code (Código Técnico de la Edificación, introduced in 2006), so insulation and acoustic standards differ from new construction. The listing category is 'Contemporary', referring to the interior style rather than construction method. A storage area in the building provides additional practical space. No energy performance certificate rating is recorded in the data; Spanish law requires this document at point of sale, so it should be requested from the vendor.
The apartment is listed at €239,900, completed and available for immediate transfer. Within Torrevieja, comparable listings range from €169,000 (Edificio Sun & Center, key ready) to €255,000 (Edificio Vento), placing this property in the mid-to-upper segment of the local resale market. The price reflects the property's size, 109 m² with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, which is larger than typical new-build two-bedroom units at similar price points in the area. As a completed 1970 building with modernised interiors, the property avoids off-plan payment schedules but requires standard resale purchase costs, including transfer tax and notary fees.
Daily life in this part of Torrevieja is organised around the town centre rather than a resort complex. The apartment sits in a dense urban environment where a supermarket is 354 metres away, a pharmacy 576 metres, and within a two-kilometre radius there are 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 24 banks and 27 pharmacies. This density means most daily errands can be done on foot. The nearest beach, Playa del Cura, is about 1.2 km away, a walk of roughly 15 minutes along mostly flat terrain, given the area's low gradient of under one percent. The rhythm of the area shifts with the seasons. Torrevieja has a registered population of around 98,500, and its commercial base operates year-round, with schools and healthcare facilities supporting permanent residency rather than purely seasonal tourism. In summer months the beaches and promenade see increased visitor numbers; outside the high season the centre remains active but quieter. The apartment itself functions as a conventional town-centre dwelling: a combined living and dining space, three separate bedrooms that could serve varied purposes, and a kitchen with fitted cabinetry. A communal rooftop terrace provides shared outdoor space, which partly compensates for the absence of a private garden. The location suits a car-optional lifestyle, 14 public transport lines and 50 stops service the municipality, though a car remains useful for reaching golf courses, the hospital at 3.4 km, or the airport. Evening use of the area revolves around local restaurants and plazas within the immediate neighbourhood rather than travel further afield.
The immediate environment is urban Torrevieja: a dense, serviced town centre rather than a peripheral development. Within a two-kilometre radius, the amenity count, 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists, 24 banks and 3 schools, indicates a full-service residential and commercial district. The University Hospital of Torrevieja lies 3.4 km away. The Real Club Náutico marina is 1.1 km from the property, and the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina sports centre 1.2 km. Recreational infrastructure includes public swimming pools at Hotel Fontana (0.9 km) and Parque de las Naciones (1.2 km). For orientation: the Torre del Moro viewpoint is 3.0 km away and La Pinada 4.0 km. Public transport comprises 14 lines with 50 stops across the municipality, supporting car-free mobility for local trips. The flat terrain, the slope towards the beach averages 0.8 percent, makes walking and cycling realistic for most daily journeys. Torrevieja registers roughly 98,500 residents (2025), and the city functions year-round, with an economy not exclusively tied to summer tourism. Median provincial income in Alicante is €15,750, giving context to local purchasing power. The nearest electric vehicle charging point is 5.8 km away, with additional fast-charging options at La Zenia (8.3 km).

Within Torrevieja's current apartment stock, this property occupies a mid-to-upper price position. Comparable listings include Edificio Sun & Center (key-ready, from €169,000), Residencial Brisamar (from €199,000) and Edificio Vento (from €255,000). At €239,900 for 109 m², the price per square metre of approximately €2,200 sits below the per-metre rate of smaller new-build units in the same listings, which typically offer two bedrooms for similar or higher totals. The trade-off is age: this is a modernised 1970 building rather than new construction, meaning different acoustic and thermal standards and no developer guarantees, though also no construction-phase risk or off-plan payment schedule. Location differentiates the property within the wider Costa Blanca South market. Torrevieja central offers walkable density, beaches, 168 restaurants within two kilometres, schools and healthcare, in contrast to golf-course developments in Orihuela Costa (8, 11 km south) that assume car dependency for daily errands. Compared with Alicante city, roughly 45 km north, Torrevieja offers lower entry prices and a more compact, beach-orientated urban form, at the cost of a smaller employment base and greater seasonal fluctuation in visitor numbers. For buyers comparing this property with new-build alternatives, key considerations include the absence of private parking, the 1970 construction date, and unspecified energy certification, set against immediate availability, larger internal floor area and a fully established year-round neighbourhood. The provincial median income of €15,750 and Torrevieja's population of roughly 98,500 frame the local rental and resale demand context for the area.
