A two-bedroom, two-bathroom townhouse of 100 m² is for sale at a fixed asking price of €190,000 in Los Altos, a residential district on the southern Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. The house forms part of a gated community with a communal swimming pool and was originally completed in 1970. It has a private balcony, a rooftop solarium and small garden areas on either side. The kitchen and bathrooms have been recently renewed, and the property is key-ready. It sits roughly 2 km from the nearest beach, with Alicante-Elche Airport approximately 38 km away in a straight line.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Los Altos is a residential area near Torrevieja on the southern Costa Blanca. The nearest beach, Cala de lo Ferri, lies 2.0 km away as the crow flies, on terrain that is essentially flat. Within 2 km there are some 25 restaurants, four pharmacies and six cafés. Larger cities such as Elche and Murcia are 35 km and 36 km away respectively in a straight line.
The house offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and 100 m² of living space, with a south-facing aspect on one side. Outdoor space includes a private balcony, a rooftop solarium and small garden areas to either side. Hot and cold air conditioning, an alarm system and fibre-optic internet are installed. Residents of the gated community share a communal swimming pool.
This is not a new-build project. The townhouse dates from 1970 and is key-ready, having stood vacant for roughly a year. The kitchen and bathrooms have been newly fitted and are usable, but the interiors would benefit from redecoration. This allows a buyer to update the home gradually rather than taking on structural works.
The property does not include an allocated parking space; parking is available in surrounding streets. It is sold unfurnished, although white goods are included. Having been empty for about a year, the home requires cosmetic attention. With 100 m² and two bedrooms, the house is compact for buyers needing three or more bedrooms. No private pool is present, only a communal one.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a holiday home on the Costa Blanca will find the 2 km distance to Cala de lo Ferri and the communal pool practical for summer stays, while the solarium extends outdoor use into spring and autumn. Permanent residents working locally or retiring to the coast benefit from the flat surroundings, the dense amenities within 2 km and the 14 bus lines serving the wider area. Investors may see a rental product at a fixed €190,000 price point in a mature rental market near Torrevieja, where the renewed kitchen and bathrooms reduce initial outlay before letting. The house also suits buyers who want to personalise a home gradually: the shell and wet rooms are usable, and redecoration can be scheduled over time. It is less suitable for buyers requiring three or more bedrooms, a private pool or an allocated parking space, as none of these are part of the offer. Households without a car should note that while public transport is present, distances to golf courses, larger cities and the airport make driving the more practical mode. Finally, buyers sensitive to seasonality should consider that coastal neighbourhoods of this type quieten considerably outside the summer months, which can be either an advantage or a drawback depending on preference.
Built in 1970, the townhouse reflects the construction methods of its period, typical for southern Costa Blanca developments of that era: masonry walls, tiled floors and a compact layout. The interior photographs show tiled flooring throughout, a straightforward hallway and a small bathroom with shower and bidet, consistent with the property's age and scale. Two significant updates have already been carried out: the kitchen is newly fitted and both bathrooms have been renewed, which removes the most invasive and costly part of a modernisation from a new owner's list. Technical provisions include hot and cold air conditioning, an alarm system and fibre-optic internet, covering climate control, basic security and connectivity. The property is delivered unfurnished but with white goods included, so the kitchen is operational from the start. The residence has been vacant for approximately a year, which in practice means the buyer should budget for redecoration, a deep clean and general maintenance of items such as seals, taps and the solarium waterproofing, none of which is unusual for an empty coastal home. The rooftop solarium and balcony are functional outdoor spaces; the images suggest standard finishes that can be upgraded at modest cost. No parking space is included, so any garage requirement would need to be arranged separately in the surrounding streets, where spaces are generally available along the main road. Overall, the finishing level is usable and honest rather than show-ready, which aligns with the asking price and the explicit scope for personalisation.
The asking price is fixed at €190,000. That figure buys 100 m² of living space, two bedrooms and two bathrooms in an established gated community with a pool. For context, comparable new-build apartments in Torrevieja start at around €160,000 to €169,000, while a bungalow-style property in Urbanización El Rasa area developments begins near €227,000. The price therefore positions this home between entry-level new apartments and larger new-build alternatives, reflecting its age, its renewed kitchen and bathrooms and the renovation work still to be carried out. Delivery is immediate as the property is key-ready; any completion date for a purchase is indicative and depends on the notary process.
Daily life in this Los Altos townhouse revolves around a compact two-storey layout connected by outdoor zones. Mornings can be spent on the south-facing balcony or the rooftop solarium, which receives ample light given the region's average of 18.8 °C annually. The small garden strips to either side offer space for plants or seating without demanding substantial maintenance. The communal pool serves as the main cooling option during the roughly five months when sea water stays at or above 20 °C. Inside, the renewed kitchen and bathrooms are functional from day one, while the two bedrooms suit a couple, a small family or guests in a holiday home. The surrounding neighbourhood is fully built up and residential in character, with the usual rhythm of a coastal town: busier in summer, quieter outside the season. With 14 public transport lines and 50 stops in the area, errands can partly be done without a car, although many residents will find one convenient for beach trips and airport transfers. Facilities such as Snatch Fitness Center at 1.5 km, a supermarket-scale amenity base within 2 km and several swimming pools nearby keep everyday needs within short reach. The flat terrain, at roughly 2 m above sea level, makes walking and cycling realistic options for most residents. The house suits a buyer who accepts a cosmetic updating programme and wants a base in an established, service-rich neighbourhood rather than a newly developed resort.
The immediate environment is a well-serviced residential district. Within 2 km, residents can reach about 25 restaurants, six cafés, four pharmacies and three dentists, which covers most daily needs without leaving the neighbourhood. The nearest beach, Cala de lo Ferri, is 2.0 km away in a straight line, with Playa Rocío del Mar at 2.3 km and Cala Piteras at 2.5 km providing alternatives within a short drive. For exercise, Snatch Fitness Center lies 1.5 km away, and two public swimming pools, one at 1.8 km and the Parque de las Naciones pool at 2.9 km, offer options outside the sea season. Golfers have three courses within reach: Club de Golf Villamartín at 4.7 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 6.6 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 7.2 km. Electric vehicle owners can charge at Ionity La Zenia (4.8 km) or at Iberdrola and Eranovum points roughly 6.4 to 6.7 km away. The terrain is flat at around 2 m elevation, so walking and cycling are practical. Public transport consists of 14 lines with 50 stops, giving reasonable connectivity to Torrevieja and neighbouring towns, although regional distances make a car the more convenient choice for most households. The area sits between the marinas of Real Club Náutico (3.3 km) and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (7.8 km) for those with boating interests. In short, the neighbourhood functions year-round rather than existing only for the summer season.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Los Altos occupies a position between Torrevieja and the Orihela Costa urbanisations, in the southernmost coastal band of Alicante province. Regional reference points are Elche (35 km straight-line, 234,765 inhabitants), Murcia (36 km, 462,979) and Cartagena (45 km, 218,943), placing the property within the orbit of three substantial cities while remaining in a low-rise residential setting. Within the Costa Blanca South market, the district competes on services and proximity to golf and beaches rather than on new-build scale.
Accessibility is a strong point of this location. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC), the main international gateway for the southern Costa Blanca, lies approximately 38 km away in a straight line, a drive of well under an hour in normal conditions. Valencia Airport is about 171 km away and Málaga-Costa del Sol roughly 364 km, useful only for specific routings. Beach access requires a short trip: Cala de lo Ferri at 2.0 km as the crow flies, with road distances somewhat longer. Golf courses cluster within a 5 to 8 km band around Villamartín, Campoamor and Orihuela. Local transport is comparatively strong for a district of this size: 14 lines and 50 stops connect Los Altos to Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and nearby commercial zones, including the large shopping provision of the La Zenia area near the 4.8 km charging hub. By car, the AP-7 and N-332 corridors are the standard routes along the coast, placing Elche (35 km straight-line) and Murcia (36 km straight-line) within daily commuting range. Parking near the property is on-street and unallocated but generally available. For residents combining local errands on foot or by bus with regional travel by car, the location works without friction; all distances quoted are straight-line and actual road distances are longer.

The climate data places this location firmly in the Mediterranean-coastal category. Average monthly temperatures range from 12 °C in the coolest month to 26 °C in the warmest, with an annual mean of 18.8 °C, mild winters and warm but not extreme summers. The swimming season, defined by sea water at or above 20 °C, lasts about five months, typically from late spring into early autumn, which suits both beach use and the communal pool. The elevation is only 2 m above sea level with a 0.0% gradient to the beach, meaning the entire route to the coast is flat; this matters for cyclists, walkers and anyone with mobility considerations. There is no mountain backdrop immediately behind the property, the setting is low-lying coastal plain, so views from the rooftop solarium are over the residential streetscape toward the surroundings rather than panoramic sea or mountain vistas. The solarium gains practical value from the southerly aspect on one side of the house, extending usable outdoor hours into the shoulder seasons. Rainfall in this part of Alicante province is modest and concentrated in the cooler months, which keeps maintenance of the small garden areas and solarium relatively undemanding. Buyers used to northern European winters will notice the difference most between November and March, when daytime temperatures remain comfortable for outdoor living by comparison.

The beach offering around Los Altos is based on a string of small coves rather than long open strands. Cala de lo Ferri, the closest at 2.0 km straight-line, is followed by Playa Rocío del Mar at 2.3 km and Cala Piteras at 2.5 km, giving residents a choice of three swimming spots within a five-minute drive. The broader Orihuela Costa and Torrevieja coastline extends this selection considerably. Golf is a defining recreational feature of the area: Club de Golf Villamartín (4.7 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (6.6 km) and Club de Golf Las Ramblas de Orihuela (7.2 km) form a triangle of established 18-hole courses around the district, each reachable in under fifteen minutes by car. For watersports and marina life, Real Club Náutico sits 3.3 km away and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero 7.8 km. Sports facilities on land include Snatch Fitness Center at 1.5 km and CF Torrevieja at 5.0 km for football. Swimming beyond the sea season is possible at the Kids pool (1.8 km) and the Parque de las Naciones residential pool (2.9 km), complementing the communal pool within the community itself. The flat terrain supports running and cycling as everyday recreation, and the mix of coves, courses and marinas means leisure options do not depend on a single season.

Within its immediate market segment, this townhouse competes with new-build and key-ready apartments in Torrevieja and the Orihuela Costa belt. The closest comparables are APARTMENTS PALANGRE BEACH in Torrevieja (from €160,000) and EDIFICIO SUN & CENTER, also key-ready in Torrevieja (from €169,000), both offering newer construction at a lower entry price but in apartment rather than townhouse form. Further up the range, OASIS LAGUNA 2, FASE II in Urbanización El Raso starts at €227,000, roughly €37,000 above this property's fixed asking price. Against these, the Los Altos house offers a different proposition: 100 m² over two levels with a private balcony, rooftop solarium and side garden areas, plus two bathrooms rather than the single bathroom typical at the lower price points. The trade-off is age, a 1970 build against modern construction standards, offset in part by the renewed kitchen and bathrooms and by installed hot and cold air conditioning, an alarm system and fibre-optic internet. Locationally, Los Altos sits closer to the Villamartín, Campoamor golf triangle than central Torrevieja, while still within 2.5 km of three beaches and 5 km of the football club and fitness facilities. Compared with El Raso, a quieter inland urbanisation, Los Altos offers denser everyday amenities: 25 restaurants and four pharmacies within 2 km. Median provincial income of €15,750 per year provides context for local purchasing power and rental dynamics. For a buyer weighing a €190,000 budget, the regional comparison comes down to new-build apartments in Torrevieja versus a larger-format older townhouse in a serviced neighbourhood, with the renovation scope of the latter priced into its condition.
