This corner penthouse is located on the fourth floor of a building in the centre of Torrevieja, a coastal city on the Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. The property offers 128 m² of living space with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one en suite. It has been fully refurbished and is sold furnished. The L-shaped, south-facing terrace provides sea views, and the building is equipped with a lift. The location places daily amenities, shops, restaurants and the seafront promenade within walking distance, with Playa del Cura approximately 1.2 to 1.3 km away. The original building dates from 1970; the interior has been modernised.
Within the Torrevieja market, this penthouse occupies a middle position between the lower-priced apartment developments and the higher-priced villa segment. Edificio Vento and Edificio Talan 2 are listed from approximately €255,000, while Laguna Rosa Villas start from €424,000. At €349,000 for 128 m², this property is priced at roughly €2,730 per m², above the entry-level apartment stock but below villa pricing, a differential explained by its central position, refurbishment level, terrace with sea views and furnished condition. Compared with the newer-build apartment options, buyers here exchange new-build warranties and modern communal facilities for space, an established central neighbourhood and immediate availability. Compared with the Laguna Rosa villa product, the trade-off is the absence of a private pool and plot in return for roughly €75,000 lower entry pricing and a genuinely walkable urban setting. Beyond Torrevieja, the southern Costa Blanca corridor, Orihuela Costa, Guardamar and Santa Pola, offers comparable coastal stock, but Torrevieja differentiates itself on service density: a year-round city of nearly 99,000 inhabitants with a hospital, theatre, marina and full municipal administration, which supports occupancy and letting demand outside the summer season. For buyers comparing regions, the Costa Blanca South typically prices below the Costa del Sol per square metre, while offering similar sunshine hours; the counterweight is a longer transfer to Málaga-based markets and a different cultural rhythm. Within Torrevieja itself, the northern districts of La Mata and Cabo Cervera offer quieter, more residential environments with more green space, whereas this central location trades that calm for proximity to amenities, cultural facilities and the promenade.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property sits in central Torrevieja, opposite the municipal theatre and adjacent to a pedestrianised street. Playa del Cura beach is roughly 1.2 to 1.3 km away on flat terrain. A supermarket is 354 m away, a pharmacy 576 m, and the nearest hospital 3.4 km. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 35 km in a straight line. The setting is urban, with 168 restaurants and 44 cafés within a 2 km radius.
The penthouse suits buyers seeking an urban, walkable coastal base with the sea within a 15 to 20 minute walk. Dual-aspect windows and a south-facing terrace support natural light throughout the day. The layout with en-suite bathroom and separate utility room accommodates both permanent residence and extended stays. Air conditioning and lift access are present; the property is delivered furnished and refurbished.
This is not a new-build project. The building originates from 1970 and the unit has since undergone a full interior refurbishment, presenting a completed, move-in-ready property. Construction status is listed as complete. There is no developer delivery schedule, off-plan phase or payment structure associated with this listing; the transfer concerns an existing, individual resale property.
The property does not include a private swimming pool, private garden, private parking space or storage room, according to the listed features. It is a 1970 building, so no new-build warranty (for example a ten-year structural guarantee) applies in the manner typical for recent construction. No energy efficiency certificate label is recorded in the available data. Onsite EV charging is not available; the nearest charging point is 5.8 km away.
This property fits several recognisable situations. First, buyers relocating permanently who want to live without a car: the walkable access to supermarkets, pharmacies, medical facilities and public transport supports year-round living rather than seasonal use. Second, buyers seeking a low-maintenance coastal home: a refurbished, furnished apartment with lift access removes renovation work and furnishing logistics from the equation. Third, those who value the cultural and social infrastructure of a real city, theatre, sports centres, marinas, over the quiet of a resort-style urbanisation. Fourth, buyers prioritising outdoor space and orientation: the south-facing, L-shaped terrace with sea views is a concrete feature that suits extended periods outdoors during the 3,854 annual sunshine hours. It is less suited to buyers who want private parking, a communal pool, a garden or a new-build warranty structure, since none of these are included in the listed features. Buyers sensitive to summer crowds should note that central Torrevieja experiences significant seasonal visitor pressure, and those needing regular airport travel should factor the roughly 35 km distance to Alicante-Elche Airport. For a second-home buyer wanting occasional use, the furnished condition and central location simplify lock-up-and-leave usage, though the absence of an alarm or dedicated storage should be verified separately.
The property has been fully refurbished, and the listed finishes indicate a modernised interior rather than an original 1970s condition. The kitchen is a separate designer kitchen with an island and an adjoining utility area, which is a functional configuration for a household of three to four people. The images referenced show a modern kitchen with island and cabinetry and a bathroom with a modern black marble vanity unit, consistent with a comprehensive refurbishment. The living-dining room includes an electric fireplace, a low-maintenance alternative to a wood burner. There are two bathrooms, one en suite to the principal bedroom. Climate control consists of air conditioning; the listing does not specify whether this is hot-and-cold ducted, split units or a specific brand, which buyers should confirm during a viewing. The building itself retains its 1970 structure; while the interior is updated, elements such as the façade, roof, communal areas and lift are managed at community level, and the state of the community fund and recent building works are standard points for due diligence. A lift is present and functional. The property is connected to the mains drinking water supply. No energy performance certificate rating is recorded in the available data; since certificates are legally required for sales in Spain, this document should be requested. Sold furnished and fitted, the property allows immediate occupation, though buyers should inventory the included furniture contractually to avoid ambiguity at handover.
The asking price is €349,000 for a completed, furnished 128 m² penthouse with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, which corresponds to roughly €2,730 per m². Within Torrevieja, comparable listings range from approximately €255,000 (Edificio Vento and Edificio Talan 2) to from €424,000 for the Laguna Rosa Villas. This property is positioned between those reference points, with its price reflecting the central location, refurbishment, terrace and sea views rather than new-build status. Availability is immediate, as the property is completed and ready for occupation. Buyers should verify community fees, annual property tax (IBI) and refurbishment documentation through standard due diligence.
Daily life around this penthouse is defined by its central urban position. The building stands opposite the theatre and next to a pedestrianised street, which means the immediate surroundings are foot traffic rather than car traffic, though the wider city centre is busy, particularly in the summer months when Torrevieja's population swells with visitors. Groceries are a short walk: the nearest supermarket is roughly 350 metres away, with a pharmacy under 600 metres away. With 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 24 banks and 27 pharmacies within a 2 km radius, nearly all daily errands can be completed on foot, which reduces or removes the need for a car for routine living. The 14 public transport lines and 50 stops in the municipality provide alternatives for longer trips. The beach sits about 1.2 to 1.3 km from the door, reachable on flat terrain with a gentle 0.8 per cent gradient, making the walk feasible for most residents year-round. The penthouse itself, on the fourth floor with a lift, is dual aspect and south-facing, with an L-shaped terrace offering sea views, a configuration that supports outdoor use across much of the day. Living here means trading the quiet of a residential suburb for immediacy: amenities, culture and the promenade are close, and the pace is set by a city of roughly 98,500 inhabitants that functions fully outside the tourist season.
The immediate environment is central Torrevieja, a working city of approximately 98,500 registered inhabitants (2025, INE) on the southern Costa Blanca. Within a 2 km radius, the data records 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists, 24 banks and 3 schools, which indicates a complete urban service structure rather than a seasonal resort. Cultural and sports facilities are close by: the Teatro Municipal stands opposite the building, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina is 1.2 km away, CF Torrevieja 1.4 km, and the Real Club Náutico marina 1.1 km. For swimming outside the sea, a hotel pool (Piscina Hotel Fontana) is 0.9 km away and a residential community pool 1.2 km. Healthcare access includes a hospital 3.4 km away. Public transport consists of 14 lines with 50 stops, covering the municipality and surrounding towns. The terrain is essentially flat at 20 m above sea level with a 0.8 per cent slope towards the beach, so walking and cycling are practical for most daily trips. EV owners should note that the nearest charging point listed is 5.8 km away, with larger fast-charging hubs at La Zenia (8.3 km). Seasonality is a factor: summer months bring substantial visitor numbers to the city centre, while the winter period is considerably quieter yet retains full services.
The map shows the property in central Torrevieja, a short distance inland from the Paseo Marítimo and Playa del Cura. The pedestrianised centre, theatre, marina and sports facilities lie within approximately 1.5 km, while the golf courses of Villamartín and Campoamor sit to the south. The flat terrain makes most marked points walkable or cyclable.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Torrevieja is positioned on the southern Costa Blanca, roughly 35 km south of Alicante city and its airport, and immediately north of the Orihuela Costa strip with its golf courses and shopping centres such as La Zenia Boulevard. Within its own market, the city is more urban and service-dense than the residential urbanisations of Orihuela Costa, and more affordable than the northern Costa Blanca enclaves around Altea and Calpe. The property's central location places it in the densest part of Torrevieja itself, distinct from the quieter La Mata and Cabo Cervera districts to the north.
The nearest beaches, Playa del Cura and Platja del Cura, are approximately 1.2 to 1.3 km from the property, with Cala del Palangre at 1.5 km, all reachable on foot over flat ground. The seafront promenade connects the urban beaches along the coast. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is roughly 35 km in a straight line, approximately a 40 to 50 minute drive; Valencia Airport is about 168 km away and Málaga Airport roughly 368 km. Golf is less immediate than the beach: Club de Golf Villamartín is 8.7 km away, Real Club de Golf Campoamor 10 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela 11 km, all requiring a short car journey. For daily needs, a supermarket is 354 m away and a pharmacy 576 m; the nearest hospital is 3.4 km. Given the central location and public transport network, a car is optional for daily living but useful for airport transfers and golf.

Torrevieja records an average annual temperature of 18.7°C with a range of roughly 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, and approximately 3,854 hours of sunshine per year, a figure among the higher readings for the Spanish Mediterranean coast. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months, typically from late May to early October. The municipality sits at low altitude, approximately 20 m above sea level, with essentially flat terrain; the gradient towards the beach is 0.8 per cent, so there are no notable inclines on daily routes. The surrounding landscape is coastal-urban, with the natural landmarks of the Torrevieja and La Mata salt lagoons in the wider municipality and the viewpoint at La Pinada 4 km away. The Torre del Moro watchtower, 3 km along the coast, marks the northern beaches. For residents, the practical implication is a climate that supports terrace use and outdoor living for most of the year, with the south-facing orientation of this penthouse aligning well with the available sun hours.

Torrevieja holds seven Blue Flag beaches, including El Cura, Los Locos, Cabo Cervera, La Mata and Cala de las Piteras, which places the city among the better-rated coastal municipalities for water quality and services. From this property, Playa del Cura is roughly 1.2 km away, with the sequence of urban beaches and coves along the promenade within walking or short cycling distance. Water sports and mooring facilities are available at the Real Club Náutico, 1.1 km from the door. For organised sport, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina (1.2 km) hosts municipal sports facilities, and a private fitness centre is 3.8 km away. Golfers can reach three 18-hole courses, Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Ramblas de Orihuela, at 8.7 to 11 km, all clustered in the Orihuela Costa area to the south. Combined with the theatre opposite the building and the marina, the recreation profile is weighted towards urban-coastal amenities rather than resort-based facilities.
