This ground floor apartment is located in La Mata, a coastal district of Torrevieja on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers 63 m² of living space with two bedrooms and one bathroom, and is offered fully renovated at a fixed asking price of €212,100. The beach is approximately 1.4 km away as the crow flies, with the town centre, shops, pharmacies and restaurants all within walking distance. The building dates from 1970 and has no lift. Alicante-Elche airport lies roughly 30 km away in a straight line.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in the built-up core of La Mata, within a short walk of everyday services. Data for the surrounding area lists around 50 restaurants, four pharmacies, two banks and three cafés within a 2 km radius. The nearest beach, Platja de l'Eixidor, lies 1.4 km away as the crow flies, and the terrain between is flat.
The layout comprises a living room, a kitchen-dining area with appliances, two bedrooms, a bathroom with a shower tray and an interior patio that supplies natural light and ventilation. There is also a private terrace and a balcony with space for a washing machine. Air conditioning, double glazing and fitted wardrobes are present, and the property is sold fully furnished.
This is not a new-build project. The building was completed in 1970 and the apartment has since been fully renovated; it is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase. No construction phase or delivery schedule applies. Any renovation-related guarantees should be confirmed with the seller during the purchase process.
The building has no lift, which affects access to upper floors and is relevant for anyone with mobility considerations, although this unit is on the ground floor. There is no private parking, storage room or communal pool listed for the property. With 63 m² and a single bathroom, the home is compact rather than spacious for households larger than three or four people.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a compact, low-maintenance second home near the sea will find the walking-distance services and flat terrain practical, particularly because the home is sold furnished and requires no renovation work. Retirees or part-year residents who prefer not to depend on a car can manage daily life here on foot, supported by 13 public transport lines and 50 stops in the surrounding area. Investors may note the location in a tourist zone close to the beach, where seasonal rental management is common practice in La Mata; rental income potential, however, depends on regulation, seasonality and management costs and cannot be guaranteed. The property is less suitable for buyers needing space for a larger household, given the 63 m² of living area and a single bathroom, or for those who expect communal facilities such as a pool. The absence of a lift is not an obstacle for this ground-floor unit, but it does affect the building generally. Buyers who prioritise modern energy performance should also note the 1970 construction date and verify the technical condition of the building and its installations.
The apartment has been fully renovated and is delivered key-ready. The kitchen-dining area includes modern appliances, and the bathroom is fitted with a shower tray, bidet, sink and modern tiling, as visible in the property photographs. The bedrooms come with fitted wardrobes, and the windows are double glazed, which improves insulation and reduces street noise relative to single glazing typical of 1970s buildings. Air conditioning provides climate control during the warm months, when average temperatures reach around 26°C in summer. The interior patio is a functional feature inherited from the building's original design: it supplies daylight and airflow to the inner part of the floor plan, which is significant in a ground-floor unit. The private terrace and balcony extend the usable living space outdoors. As with any renovated property in an older building, buyers are advised to verify the state of the building's communal elements, roof, façade and installations, and to confirm which renovation guarantees, if any, transfer with the sale. The property is sold fully furnished, including bedroom and living room furniture, which reduces initial setup costs.
The apartment is offered at a fixed asking price of €212,100. This is an existing, key-ready property rather than a new-build development with a price list, so the price applies to this specific home. For context, comparable new-build apartments in the wider Torrevieja area start from approximately €160,000 to €227,000, though those figures concern different projects, sizes and locations. The property is sold fully furnished and renovated, which affects the total cost of moving in compared with a property requiring work. Additional purchase costs in Spain, transfer tax, notary and registry fees, should be budgeted separately.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around short distances. The town centre of La Mata and its services are on the doorstep: bus stops, a pharmacy, shops and restaurants are all within easy walking range, so a car is not strictly necessary for errands. The flat terrain, with a gradient of only 0.4% toward the sea, makes walking and cycling practical year-round. The interior layout follows a straightforward Mediterranean pattern: the living room opens onto the private terrace, the kitchen-dining area is equipped with modern appliances, and the interior patio provides cross-ventilation and daylight to the inner rooms, a common and functional solution in older Spanish buildings. Mornings can be spent on the terrace or the balcony, which also houses a washing machine and a small vertical garden. The two bedrooms share a single bathroom with a shower tray. In the warmer months, the swimming season lasts about five months with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, and the nearest beach is roughly 1.4 km away as the crow flies. The neighbourhood is part of Torrevieja's tourist zone, meaning it will feel busier in summer and quieter outside the season, a rhythm typical of coastal towns on this stretch of the Costa Blanca.
La Mata functions as a self-contained neighbourhood within Torrevieja. Within a 2 km radius, the data lists approximately 50 restaurants, four pharmacies, two banks, three cafés and two dentists, which covers most daily needs without travelling to the city centre. Public transport is well represented for a town of this size: 13 lines and 50 stops serve the area, connecting La Mata with Torrevieja centre and surrounding districts. The nearest beach, Platja de l'Eixidor, is 1.4 km away as the crow flies, with Playa de Cabo Cervera at 1.7 km and Platja de les Ortigues at 2.3 km. For sport and leisure, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina and CF Torrevieja facilities lie about 3.3 km away, and a public swimming pool is roughly 1.2 km from the property. Two viewpoints, La Pinada (1.3 km) and Torre del Moro (2.2 km), offer coastal walks nearby. The area sits at just 6 m above sea level with a flat gradient, so the surroundings are easy to navigate on foot or by bicycle throughout the year.
The map shows the apartment's position within La Mata, Torrevieja, on the southern Costa Blanca. Note that the distances shown to beaches, golf courses, marinas and airports are straight-line measurements; actual road routes will be longer. The flat coastal terrain between the property and the sea is visible in the surrounding street layout.

La Mata occupies the northern edge of Torrevieja, on the boundary with Guardamar del Segura along the southern Costa Blanca. The location sits between two larger urban anchors: Torrevieja centre to the south and Alicante province's capital 39 km to the north-east as the crow flies, with Murcia 42 km to the south-west. This positions the property in one of the more service-dense coastal zones of the region, with the airport roughly 30 km away. Compared with inland developments around Orihuela, La Mata offers immediate beach access and urban amenities; compared with newer resorts such as La Finca or Campoamor, it provides a more traditional, year-round town environment rather than a gated residential complex.
Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) lies approximately 30 km away as the crow flies, making it the primary gateway for international arrivals; actual road distance and travel time will be longer. Valencia Airport is roughly 164 km away in a straight line and Málaga-Costa del Sol about 371 km. Regionally, Elche (234,765 inhabitants) is 27 km away in a straight line, Alicante city (339,322 inhabitants) 39 km, and Murcia (462,979 inhabitants) 42 km. These cities expand the range of hospitals, shopping and cultural options available to residents. Within La Mata itself, a car is not essential for daily life, given the density of services and the public transport network. For destinations further afield, the coastal road network connects La Mata with Torrevieja centre, Guardamar del Segura and the AP-7 motorway toward Alicante and Murcia. An electric vehicle charging point, the Iberdrola Oasis Center, is located about 3.9 km away. Parking in the immediate vicinity of the property is on-street, as no private space is included.

The climate in La Mata is typical of the southern Costa Blanca: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 19.0°C. The swimming season lasts about five months, during which sea water stays at or above 20°C. The town lies at 6 m above sea level on essentially flat terrain, a gradient of 0.4% toward the beach, which means no climbs between the apartment and the coast. Winters are mild enough for year-round residence, and the double glazing and air conditioning in the apartment cover the two temperature extremes of the year. Rainfall in this part of Spain is low compared with northern Europe, and the 32 local public holidays per year reflect an active municipal calendar of festivities in Torrevieja and its districts. The nearby salt lakes of Torrevieja and La Mata, which give the area its characteristic landscape, lie just inland from the town.

Three beaches lie within roughly 2.3 km of the apartment: Platja de l'Eixidor at 1.4 km as the crow flies, Playa de Cabo Cervera at 1.7 km and Platja de les Ortigues at 2.3 km. All are reachable on foot or by bicycle given the flat terrain. Two marinas serve the coast nearby: Real Club Náutico at 5.6 km and Port Esportiu Marina de les Dunes at 9.9 km, both offering nautical services and waterfront dining. Golfers have three courses within a short drive: Club de Golf Villamartín and Club de Golf La Finca, each 13.0 km away, and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 14.8 km. For day-to-day recreation, a public swimming pool sits 1.2 km from the property, and the sports facilities of Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina and CF Torrevieja are about 3.3 km away. Coastal viewpoints such as Torre del Moro and Mirador El Moncayo provide walking routes with sea views, and the beachside promenade connects La Mata with neighbouring districts for longer walks or runs.

Within the immediate Torrevieja market, this apartment can be set against three comparable new-build projects. APARTMENTS PALANGRE BEACH in Torrevieja starts from €160,000, and EDIFICIO SUN & CENTER, also key-ready in Torrevieja, from €169,000. OASIS LAGUNA 2 - FASE II in Urbanización El Raso starts from €227,000. At a fixed €212,100 for 63 m², this property sits above the entry price of the Torrevieja new-build options but below the El Raso development; however, these figures are not directly comparable, since the referenced projects concern different sizes, specifications and locations. What distinguishes this apartment is that it is an existing home in a fully renovated, immediately habitable state, sold furnished, in the established centre of La Mata rather than in a new development zone. New-build projects typically carry a delivery timeline and purchase under different tax rules (VAT instead of transfer tax), while this property transfers directly. Locationally, La Mata offers denser daily services than El Raso, which is a more residential inland urbanisation closer to the golf courses of Villamartín and Campoamor. For buyers weighing new build against renovated existing stock, the practical trade-offs here are: immediate availability and a central, walkable setting on one side, versus modern construction standards, communal facilities and parking provisions on the other. The regional context supports both profiles: the southern Costa Blanca around Torrevieja combines a mature service infrastructure with continuing development activity, and the airport connection at roughly 30 km straight-line distance applies equally across these locations.
