This townhouse stands in La Veleta, a coastal district of Torrevieja on the southern Costa Blanca, within 1 km of Platja del Cura beach. The property offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 120 m² in total, of which 92 m² is built area and 28 m² a private terrace facing southeast with sea views. The home is key-ready, sold furnished and with electrical appliances included. The asking price is fixed at €399,000. The surrounding area counts some 170 restaurants, 27 pharmacies and 47 cafés within 2 km, along with twelve public transport lines serving 50 stops.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
La Veleta lies on the seafront at Torrevieja, at roughly 20 m above sea level with a flat gradient of under 2% towards the beach. Platja del Cura is 1.0 km away as the crow flies, with Cala de lo Ferri and Playa Rocío del Mar also within 1.4 km straight-line distance. Alicante-Elche airport sits approximately 36 km away in a direct line.
The layout serves households needing four bedrooms and two bathrooms across 120 m², with a separate kitchen and a 28 m² terrace oriented southeast. Sea views and the seafront position mean daylight reaches the main living spaces through much of the day. Daily amenities, supermarkets, pharmacies, banks and schools, are concentrated within 2 km of the front door.
This is not a new-build project but an existing townhouse, recorded as completed in 1970 and described as being in good condition. It is key-ready, meaning the buyer can take occupation directly after purchase. Delivery is immediate and not subject to construction phases or indicative completion dates; interior elements such as the water heater and washing machine are present on site.
The property offers no communal pool, garage or private garden in the recorded data, and no storage room is listed. Parking is not included. With 92 m² of built area for four bedrooms, individual rooms are compact by modern new-build standards. The 1970 construction date means the building predates current energy and insulation requirements, and no lift is mentioned.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A household that needs four bedrooms near the coast, for example a family using the area year-round with three schools within 2 km, gets a seafront position at a price point where most new-build alternatives offer two or three bedrooms further inland. Buyers seeking a second home with generous outdoor space benefit from the 28 m² terrace and the southeast orientation, which extends the usable season well beyond summer. Older buyers or anyone with reduced mobility may value the flat 1.7% gradient to the beach and the bus network covering the district. It suits those who want furnished, key-ready handover without renovation work or construction waiting time. Conversely, buyers requiring a garage, private pool or garden will not find them here, and those preferring modern insulation standards or a lift should factor in the 1970 construction date. The property is less obvious for investors seeking rental yield from new-build stock with communal facilities, and for buyers wanting a quiet inland setting, La Veleta is an urban, service-dense coastal district. In short, the house matches buyers who prioritise location, sea views and immediate habitability over newer construction and communal amenities.
The house dates from 1970 and is recorded as being in good condition, with the interior photographs providing the clearest indication of the finishing level. The living room features a working fireplace with wooden ceilings, which points to a traditional Spanish coastal build with solid construction rather than a modern lightweight finish. One bathroom contains a bathtub positioned with a sea view, while the other includes a washing machine and a standalone electric water heater, the latter meaning hot water capacity is limited compared with modern gas or aerothermal systems, and replacement of the unit falls to the owner. The bedroom shown has wooden furniture and a desk facing the sea. The property is delivered fully furnished, including electrical appliances, which reduces initial outlay for a second-home buyer. No information is available on double glazing, air conditioning, insulation values or the electrical installation's compliance date, points a surveyor would normally verify for a building of this age. The separate kitchen layout is characteristic of the period, with the 92 m² built area distributed across four bedrooms, meaning rooms are compact by current standards. The 28 m² terrace is private and forms the largest single space of the property. Overall, the finishing is functional and maintained rather than newly renovated; buyers should expect dated elements alongside sound basics, and the seafront position means exposure to salt air, which affects maintenance cycles for exterior woodwork and metal fittings.
The asking price is fixed at €399,000 for the property as a whole, this is an existing home, not a development with a price list, so there is no range of unit types or from-prices. The price covers the townhouse with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 120 m² total, including the 28 m² terrace, sold furnished with electrical appliances. Buyers comparing against new-build alternatives in Torrevieja will find apartments advertised from approximately €160,000 to €169,000 and from around €227,000 in nearby El Raso, though these are smaller units in different formats. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status.
Daily life here is organised around the coast. The house stands directly on the seafront, and the southeast orientation means the 28 m² terrace receives morning and midday sun, practical for breakfast outside for most of the year, given an average annual temperature of 18.7°C. The terrace functions as an extension of the living area, effectively adding outdoor space to the compact 92 m² interior. The neighbourhood itself is dense and service-rich: within 2 km there are around 170 restaurants, 47 cafés, 24 banks and 27 pharmacies, so errands are done on foot or by a short drive. Three schools within the same radius make the location usable for families, while the flat terrain towards the beach suits older residents. The interior photographs show a fireplace with wooden ceilings in the living room, a bedroom with a desk facing the sea, and a bathroom with a bathtub and sea view, details that point to a home intended for regular, longer stays rather than occasional holiday use. Twelve bus lines and 50 stops in the area reduce dependence on a car for local trips, although regional travel, to Elche (32 km straight-line) or Alicante (44 km straight-line), is far more practical by car. Outside the summer months, the district remains active as part of Torrevieja, a city of roughly 65,000 residents, so restaurants and services stay open year-round. The swimming season lasts about five months, with sea temperatures at or above 20°C.
The immediate surroundings are defined by the seafront and a dense service network. Platja del Cura beach is 1.0 km away as the crow flies, with Cala de lo Ferri at the same distance and Playa Rocío del Mar at 1.4 km straight-line, three swimming options within a short walk. Real Club Náutico marina lies 2.4 km away in a direct line for mooring or sailing interests. For sports, Snatch Fitness Center is 500 m away, while the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina and CF Torrevieja's facilities sit around 4.5 km distant. Healthcare and daily services are abundant: 27 pharmacies and 27 dentists within 2 km. Charging an electric car requires a short drive, with Iberdrola points at 3.5 and 3.7 km straight-line and a Galp station at 4.5 km, relevant for EV owners, as no garage or home charging is included. Public transport covers the area with twelve lines and 50 stops, connecting La Veleta to central Torrevieja and surrounding districts. Regional travel runs by car: Alicante-Elche airport is roughly 36 km as the crow flies, typically under an hour's drive. Elche (32 km straight-line) and Murcia (39 km straight-line) are both within day-trip range for shopping, hospitals and administrative errands.
The map shows the property's position on the Torrevieja seafront, with Platja del Cura 1.0 km away as the crow flies and the nearest coves within 1.8 km. Markers indicate the golf courses of the Orihuela Costa to the southwest and the marina to the north. Distances shown are straight-line measurements.

La Veleta occupies the seafront edge of Torrevieja, a city of about 65,000 residents on the southern Costa Blanca between Alicante and the Mar Menor. The position places it closer to the Orihuela Costa golf courses and coves than to the city's northern districts, while remaining inside the urban service area. Regional anchors, Elche at 32 km and Murcia at 39 km straight-line, sit to the west and southwest, and Alicante city at 44 km to the north, all reachable within roughly 40-50 minutes by car. This makes the location a practical base for coastal living with metropolitan services at driving distance.
Accessibility is a strong point of this location. The nearest beach is 1.0 km away in a straight line, and the terrain is essentially flat at a 1.7% gradient, making the walk manageable for all ages. Three golf courses, Villamartín (5.5 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (7.4 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (7.7 km), all straight-line distances, put the house within a 10-15 minute drive of the Orihuela Costa golf strip. Torrevieja's municipal sports infrastructure lies about 4.5 km away. For air travel, Alicante-Elche airport sits approximately 36 km as the crow flies and handles most European routes; Valencia (about 169 km straight-line) and Málaga (about 367 km straight-line) serve as alternatives. Within 2 km, the concentration of supermarkets, shopping centres, banks and restaurants means a car is not required for daily errands, though regional mobility without one is limited. Twelve bus lines with 50 stops provide the local public transport backbone.

The climate 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 18.7°C. The swimming season lasts about five months, during which sea water stays at or above 20°C. The elevation is a modest 20 m above sea level with a 1.7% gradient towards the coast, so the house sits low and flat relative to the shoreline, convenient for access, though it means no elevation-based panorama; sea views come from the front-row seafront position itself. The southeast orientation aligns the terrace and main rooms with morning and midday sun, which in winter helps warm the living spaces naturally. Low elevation and coastal proximity also mean exposure to sea humidity and salt air, an accepted trade-off of the location that influences maintenance of exterior elements. The region records a notably high number of local public holidays, 32 per year, reflecting an active local festival calendar.

Beach access is the defining recreational feature. Platja del Cura, 1.0 km away as the crow flies, functions as the main urban beach of Torrevieja, while the smaller coves of Cala de lo Ferri (1.0 km), Playa Rocío del Mar (1.4 km) and Cala Piteras (1.8 km) offer quieter alternatives within walking or short driving distance. Sailing and mooring facilities are available at Real Club Náutico, 2.4 km in a direct line, and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 7.9 km. Golfers can reach three 18-hole courses within 8 km: Club de Golf Villamartín, Real Club de Golf Campoamor and Las Ramblas de Orihuela, all on the Orihuela Costa. Everyday fitness options include a gym 500 m from the property, plus municipal sports halls and football facilities around 4.5 km away. With roughly 170 restaurants and 47 cafés within 2 km, evening recreation rarely requires a journey.

Within Torrevieja and its surroundings, this townhouse occupies a distinct market segment. New-build apartments in the city, such as those at Palangre Beach (from €160,000) and Edificio Sun & Center (from €169,000), start at less than half the asking price, but these are smaller units without the seafront position, sea views or four-bedroom layout found here. Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso, from €227,000, offers modern construction and communal facilities typical of inland developments near the salt lakes, a different proposition from a 1970 seafront townhouse with no communal pool but a 28 m² private terrace facing the Mediterranean. The comparison illustrates the fundamental trade-off in this part of the Costa Blanca: newer build quality, energy standards and shared amenities further from the shore, versus age and compact room sizes in exchange for a front-row coastal position. Buyers prioritising sea views and walkable urban services, 170 restaurants and 27 pharmacies within 2 km, will find few new-build alternatives at this price directly on the Torrevieja seafront, where modern front-line developments typically command substantially higher figures. The flat terrain and 1.0 km straight-line distance to Platja del Cura also distinguish the location from hillside developments in Orihuela Costa and the Torrevieja outskirts, where gradients of 5-10% are common and beach access often requires a car. Regional positioning reinforces the value of accessibility: Alicante-Elche airport lies roughly 36 km away as the crow flies, and both Murcia (39 km) and Elche (32 km) are within daily commuting range. Against the wider Costa Blanca market, La Veleta presents a year-round urban coastal setting with a permanent population base, contrasting with the more seasonal resort enclaves further south. The fixed €399,000 asking price should be weighed against the absence of garage, garden and communal facilities, features present in most competing new-build projects, and against the maintenance considerations inherent to a 1970 building in a salt-air environment.
