This detached villa is situated in Los Altos, a residential district between Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa on the southern Costa Blanca. Completed in 2007, the property offers 50 m² of living space across two bedrooms and one bathroom, set on a 44 m² plot with a private terrace and a 37 m² solarium. The surrounding neighbourhood is urban with shops, supermarkets and pharmacies within walking distance, and the nearest beaches roughly 2 km away. The asking price is €165,000, and the property is delivered completed and not furnished. Regional airports at Alicante and Murcia provide international connections.
Within its immediate market, this villa competes primarily on format and price. Comparable listings in the data include Palangre Beach apartments in Torrevieja from €160,000, Sun & Center key-ready apartments from €169,000, and Oasis Laguna Phase II at El Raso from €227,000. All three comparables are apartments; the Los Altos property is a detached house with private terrace, private solarium and private parking, which distinguishes it in a market where detached stock under €200,000 has become scarce along the southern Costa Blanca. The trade-off is scale: at 50 m² built with one bathroom, the interior is smaller than most new two-bedroom apartments in the €160,000–€230,000 band, so buyers effectively exchange internal space for privacy and outdoor surfaces. Locationally, Los Altos sits between two better-known zones. Torrevieja offers fuller year-round urban services, a larger hospital and a working Spanish town fabric, but denser development and less land per property. Orihuela Costa, Punta Prima, Playa Flamenca, La Zenia, Villamartín, offers golf, beaches and Zenia Boulevard but skews seasonal in its residential rhythm. Los Altos absorbs advantages from both while avoiding front-line prices. Set against the wider region, Elche and Murcia provide large-city services at 35–36 km, and the climate data, 3,854 sunshine hours, an 18.8°C annual mean, five-month swimming season, matches the wider coastal strip. For buyers weighing this property against El Raso or inland Gran Alacant alternatives, the distinguishing factors are walkability (supermarket at 241 m, 50 bus stops nearby) and flat coastal access at 2 km; the countervailing factors are the property's age relative to new-build comparables and its compact footprint.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Los Altos sits inland of the coast road between Punta Prima and Playa Flamenca, roughly 2 km from the nearest coves and beaches. The district is urban in character, with a supermarket 241 metres away and a pharmacy under one kilometre. Torrevieja University Hospital lies 7.2 km away. Three golf courses sit within a 6 km radius, and Zenia Boulevard shopping centre is a short drive.
The property functions as a compact two-bedroom dwelling with an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, wood flooring and central heating. Outdoor space is substantial relative to the living area: a 44 m² private terrace and a 37 m² private solarium oriented south-east. A communal pool and private parking are included. The layout suits single-person, couple or small-family use.
This is not a new-build project. The villa was completed in 2007 and is delivered in finished condition, so no construction phase or off-plan waiting period applies. Handover dates mentioned in documentation are therefore historical rather than forward-looking. Purchase, notary and registration processes can proceed directly once a sale is agreed.
The property has one bathroom only, a 50 m² built area and a 44 m² plot, which limits internal space compared with larger villas in the region. It is delivered unfurnished. There is no private pool; pool access is communal. A 37 m² solarium and terrace form part of the plot but do not expand the interior footprint. No lift, garden or secondary living room is documented.
This property fits a buyer seeking a completed, lower-cost detached house on the southern Costa Blanca rather than a new-build apartment. Recognisable situations include: a couple wanting a lock-up-and-leave holiday home with private outdoor space and a communal pool, where a 50 m² interior is sufficient and walking-distance amenities reduce dependence on a hire car; a single buyer or retiree prioritising year-round liveability, central heating, walkable supermarket and pharmacy, hospital within 7 km, over interior floor area; and a small family using the property seasonally, accepting one bathroom in exchange for the terrace and solarium. It is less suited to buyers requiring three or more bedrooms, a second bathroom, a private pool or substantial garden, as none of these are present. Buyers focused on golf will find three courses within 6 km, which the location supports well. Those wanting direct beachfront living should note the 2 km distance to the coast. Investors considering rental use should verify local licensing rules for tourist lets in the Valencian Community, as these restrictions materially affect returns in this zone. The flat terrain, public transport coverage and 14 bus lines make the property workable without a car for routine needs, though a car adds convenience for beaches, golf and airport transfers.
The property was completed in 2007, which places its original construction and fittings nearly two decades before the present market. Documented features include wood flooring, central heating and a south-east orientation. The photographic record shows a modern decorative scheme in the combined living, dining and kitchen area, pergola-covered terrace seating, and an exterior patio with palm planting, indicating the property has been maintained and presented to a reasonable standard. Buyers should nonetheless apply standard diligence to a 2007 build: the age of the central heating boiler and system, the condition of plumbing and electrical installations, window and door seals, and any damp or waterproofing on the solarium, which is a horizontal surface exposed to sun and rain. No energy performance certificate rating is documented in the available data; Spanish law requires an EPC for any sale, so buyers should request the certificate and review the registered rating before committing. The communal pool implies community membership, and the monthly community fees, building reserve funds and any pending community debts should be verified during due diligence. Private parking is included, though the exact form, space, garage or covered area, should be confirmed against the title deed. The property is sold unfurnished, so the interior photographs reflect presentation rather than included contents. An independent survey (tasación and technical inspection) is standard practice for resale properties of this age and is a modest cost relative to the purchase price.
The property is listed from €165,000. This positions it below comparable new-build stock in the immediate region: apartments at Palangre Beach in Torrevieja start from €160,000, Sun & Center key-ready apartments from €169,000, and Oasis Laguna Phase II at El Raso from €227,000. The villa format with private outdoor space at this price point is less common than apartment supply in the area. The property is completed and unfurnished, so furnishing costs fall to the buyer. Variations in final transaction price may arise from negotiation, notary and registration costs, and any refurbishment the buyer chooses to undertake.
Daily life in this property revolves around a compact interior combined with generous outdoor surfaces. The 50 m² interior contains two bedrooms, one bathroom and an open-plan living, dining and kitchen space, a layout in which the main room carries most daytime functions. In practice, residents shift much of their living outdoors: the 44 m² terrace with pergola serves as an extension of the dining area for much of the year, and the south-east orientation means the outdoor spaces receive morning and midday sun. The 37 m² solarium is the warmest zone, suited to use from spring through autumn given the region's average of roughly 3,850 sunshine hours per year. The neighbourhood itself is walkable. A supermarket sits 241 metres from the property, a pharmacy is under one kilometre, and the wider 2 km radius contains some 25 restaurants, six cafés, four pharmacies and three dentists. This density means routine errands, bread, groceries, coffee, a doctor's visit, can be done on foot rather than by car, which is not always the case in coastal districts further inland. The nearest beaches at Cala de lo Ferri and Playa Punta Prima lie about 2 km away, a distance covered by car in a few minutes or by bicycle on flat terrain; the recorded slope to the beach is 0%, so cycling is realistic for most residents. The area sits at just 2 metres above sea level. Fourteen public transport lines and 50 stops service the wider area, giving car-free residents a fallback option for Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa. Outside the summer months the district quietens, as is typical of holiday-adjacent residential zones, while year-round services remain open. Hospital care sits 7.2 km away at Torrevieja University Hospital.
Los Altos occupies the gently urbanised band between Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa, and its character is defined by walkable, year-round services rather than resort tourism. Within a 2 km radius, residents have access to approximately 25 restaurants, six cafés, four pharmacies and three dentists, alongside the supermarket at 241 metres from the property. The terrain is flat, the property sits 2 metres above sea level with a recorded 0% slope to the coast, which makes walking and cycling genuinely practical rather than nominal. Public transport coverage is comparatively strong for a coastal residential district: 14 lines and 50 stops serve the area, connecting towards Torrevieja, Playa Flamenca and La Zenia. Healthcare operates on two tiers: pharmacy-level services under a kilometre away, and Torrevieja University Hospital at 7.2 km. For recreation beyond the beach, swimming pools sit within 2–3 km, a fitness centre at 1.5 km, and football facilities at 5 km. Two marinas, Real Club Náutico at 3.3 km and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 7.8 km, extend the coastal options. Electric-vehicle owners will find charging points from 2.3 km, with faster networks including Ionity at La Zenia at 4.8 km. The trade-off in this location is the 2 km distance to the sea: the property is near the coast but not on it, and beach days involve a short drive or cycle.
The map shows Los Altos positioned inland of the coast road between Punta Prima and Playa Flamenca, roughly 2 km from the nearest coves. Markers indicate the supermarket within 250 metres, the hospital 7.2 km north, three golf courses to the south-west, and Alicante airport 38 km north-east. Flat terrain connects all points.

Los Altos occupies a transitional position between Torrevieja, the administrative and service hub of the southern Costa Blanca, and Orihuela Costa, the beach and golf strip running towards the Mar Menor. This placement gives the property access to both markets: Torrevieja's hospital, retail and year-round services to the north, and Orihuela Costa's beaches, golf and Zenia Boulevard to the south. The wider region is anchored by Elche (35 km), Murcia (36 km) and Cartagena (45 km), all cities above 200,000 inhabitants, which widens employment, education and cultural options beyond the coastal zone. Within this frame, Los Altos functions as a value-oriented residential district rather than a premium beachfront enclave.
The nearest beach, Cala de lo Ferri, lies 2.0 km away, with Playa Rocío del Mar at 2.3 km and Cala Piteras at 2.5 km. Three golf courses fall within a 7 km radius: Villamartín at 4.7 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 6.6 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 7.2 km. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 38 km in a straight line, roughly 45–50 minutes by road, and is the primary international gateway. Valencia Airport sits 171 km away and Málaga 364 km, both outside daily-use range. Regionally, Torrevieja's centre is a short drive north, Orihuela Costa and Zenia Boulevard lie south, and the larger cities of Elche (35 km), Murcia (36 km) and Cartagena (45 km) frame the wider hinterland. The hospital at 7.2 km is reachable in roughly ten minutes by car.

The climate data points to a genuinely warm coastal regime: an average annual temperature of 18.8°C with monthly means ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, and approximately 3,854 sunshine hours per year, a figure well above northern and central European norms. The documented swimming season runs five months with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, typically May through October. The property's elevation of 2 metres above sea level and the recorded 0% slope to the beach mean the terrain is entirely flat, with no stairs or inclines between the house and the coast, relevant both for daily comfort and for accessibility. The south-east orientation of the house and solarium produces morning and midday sun, with the solarium usable across most of the calendar year given the sunshine data. Central heating is present, covering the mild but occasionally cool winter months when night temperatures can fall toward the 12°C seasonal mean. The immediate landscape is urban rather than natural; open green space sits mainly at the golf courses 4.7 km and beyond.

The immediate coastline offers a cluster of coves and beaches: Cala de lo Ferri at 2.0 km, Playa Rocío del Mar at 2.3 km and Cala Piteras at 2.5 km, with Playa Punta Prima slightly further. These are rocky-cove and bay beaches typical of the Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa stretch, suited to swimming and snorkelling; buyers can verify current Blue Flag status for individual beaches with the local authority, as flags are awarded annually. Golf is the strongest recreational asset in the area, with three established 18-hole courses within 7 km: Villamartín, Real Club de Golf Campoamor and Las Ramblas de Orihuela. Water-based recreation extends to two marinas, Real Club Náutico at 3.3 km and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 7.8 km. Dry-land facilities include a fitness centre at 1.5 km, football at CF Torrevieja 5.0 km away, and two swimming pools within 2–3 km, one of them a residential community pool. For family leisure, Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres in the province, is a short drive south.
