This semi-detached house in Los Altos, on the border between Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa, is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €234,900. Built in 1970 and recently renovated, the property provides three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 75 m² of living space, along with a private terrace, patio and roof solarium. The urbanisation is a quiet residential area with shops, restaurants and a primary school nearby. The nearest beach, Cala de lo Ferri, lies 2.0 km away as the crow flies, and the communal pool and garden are shared facilities within the community.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Los Altos is a residential suburb of Torrevieja, positioned between the town centre and Orihuela Costa. The area sits at just 2 metres above sea level on flat terrain, with the nearest beach 2.0 km away in a straight line. Amenities within 2 km include a large supermarket, a primary school, a post office, restaurants and pharmacies. Fourteen bus lines and fifty stops serve the wider area, and the hospital in Los Balcones is reachable by main bus route.
The house suits households seeking a low-maintenance coastal base with practical daily amenities within walking or short driving distance. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms accommodate a family or visiting guests. Air conditioning (hot and cold), double glazing, fitted wardrobes and a storage room support year-round occupation, while the private terrace, patio and solarium extend the usable living space outdoors.
This is not a new-build project but an existing home, originally completed in 1970 and described as recently renovated and in excellent condition. It is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase. The property is sold fully furnished, which reduces the practical steps involved in moving in. No further construction phases or future delivery dates apply.
The property does not include a private pool; swimming facilities are communal, shared with the urbanisation. Living space is 75 m², which is compact for a three-bedroom house, and no private garden belongs to the home, the garden is a communal facility. Parking is not listed as a private garage or dedicated space. The building dates from 1970, so construction predates current new-build standards.
This property matches several recognisable situations. A buyer relocating permanently to the Costa Blanca South who wants a furnished, move-in-ready home without a construction waiting period would find the key-ready status directly relevant. The three bedrooms and two bathrooms suit a small family or a couple who regularly host guests, and the proximity of a primary school and a bus route to the hospital supports full-time residence rather than only holiday use. A second-home buyer focused on the summer months benefits from the five-month swimming season, the communal pool and the short distance to several coves and beaches. The solarium and covered terrace allow outdoor living without the maintenance burden of a large private plot, which suits owners who visit a few weeks per year. An investor evaluating rental potential would note the location's attributes: an established rental market in the Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa corridor, flat walkable terrain, beaches within 2–3 km and golf courses within 5–8 km. The furnished sale simplifies letting the property from the outset. Buyers for whom this property fits less well include those requiring a private pool, a private garden or a large living area, at 75 m² and with communal facilities only, the house trades space and exclusivity for price and convenience.
The house was built in 1970 and is presented as recently renovated and in excellent condition. The renovation standard, as documented in the feature list, includes air conditioning with both hot and cold functions, double glazing, fitted wardrobes and a fully fitted kitchen. The interior photographs show an open-plan living, dining and kitchen layout, bedrooms decorated in a contemporary style and a rear patio finished with artificial grass, a surface that requires no irrigation or mowing. The outdoor structures are specific rather than generic: a covered terrace adjoining the living space, a private terrace, a roof solarium and a storage room. The solarium adds usable area that is not counted in the 75 m² living space and functions as the property's main sun-exposed surface. The north-east orientation means this surface receives morning and midday sun. Buyers should calibrate expectations to the building's age. A 1970 construction, even renovated, will differ from current new-build standards in areas such as thermal insulation, acoustic separation and energy systems, none of which are documented in the available data. The double glazing and hot/cold air conditioning indicate that climate control has been addressed. The communal pool and garden are shared facilities maintained through community arrangements; associated costs and rules would be confirmed during the purchase process. The sale includes furniture, which the photographs indicate is present and in use.
The asking price is fixed at €234,900 for this existing, key-ready home. This is a single-property price, not a price list with multiple unit types. Within the immediate market context, comparable new-build apartments in Torrevieja start from €160,000 to €169,000, and apartments at Oasis Laguna 2 in Urbanización El Raso start from €227,000. At €234,900 this house sits above the entry-level apartment segment, which is consistent with its attributes: three bedrooms, two bathrooms, private outdoor space including a solarium, and inclusion of furniture in the sale. The property is available immediately, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life in Los Altos follows a residential rhythm. The urbanisation is described as quiet, without through traffic or the noise of a town centre, and this is reflected in its layout: low-rise housing, local shops and a primary school rather than nightlife or tourism infrastructure. A large Consum supermarket, restaurants, bars and a post office cover routine needs, and the wider dataset records 25 restaurants, four pharmacies, six cafés and three dentists within 2 km. The house itself is oriented around its outdoor spaces. A covered terrace opens off the living area, an artificial-grass patio sits at the rear, and a roof solarium adds a third level of outdoor use. With a north-east orientation, the terraces receive morning and midday sun rather than late-afternoon heat, which is a practical advantage in summer. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, visible in the interior photographs, keeps the 75 m² layout compact but connected. The communal pool and garden function as an extension of the home during the warmer months. The swimming season here runs about five months, with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, so pool and beach use concentrates between late spring and early autumn. Punta Prima beach is roughly a 10-minute drive away according to the existing description, with its restaurants, supermarkets and retail outlets. For residents working remotely or travelling, the AP-7 corridor and Alicante-Elche airport, approximately 38 km away as the crow flies, connect the area to the rest of Spain and Europe.
The immediate environment of Los Altos combines residential calm with a dense layer of daily amenities. Within 2 km, the dataset records 25 restaurants, 6 cafés, 4 pharmacies and 3 dentists, a concentration that means most routine needs are met without leaving the neighbourhood. A large supermarket, a primary school and a post office are identified in the existing description, supporting year-round living rather than seasonal visits. The urbanisation sits at 2 metres elevation with a 0.0% gradient to the beach, so the terrain is entirely flat. Walking and cycling are therefore realistic modes of transport, including for older residents. Fourteen public transport lines with 50 stops serve the area, and a main bus route connects to Torrevieja Hospital in Los Balcones, so a car is not strictly necessary, though most households in the area do own one for beach trips, shopping centres and airport travel. The surrounding region adds depth: Torrevieja town centre lies about 5 km away, Orihuela Costa begins at the southern edge of the neighbourhood, and the larger cities of Elche (35 km) and Murcia (36 km straight-line) frame the wider catchment. Shopping centres are described as 5 minutes away by car. The setting is urban rather than rural, so the quietness of Los Altos is relative: it is calm compared with Torrevieja centre, not remote.

The local climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 18.8°C and monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. This range means mild winters without frost risk and warm, dry summers, the pattern that supports the five-month swimming season, during which sea temperature stays at or above 20°C. Elevation is 2 metres above sea level and the terrain is completely flat, with a 0.0% gradient to the nearest beach. For residents this means no hills between the house and the coast, easy walking and cycling, and no elevated views, the property's outlook is urban, with garden views rather than sea views. Sea proximity at just over 2 km moderates summer heat and keeps humidity present, particularly in July and August. The natural surroundings of the area are coastal rather than mountainous: rocky coves such as Cala de lo Ferri and Cala Piteras, sandy beaches, and the salt lagoons of the Torrevieja area a short drive inland, which are a known habitat for birdlife. Nature here is experienced through the coastline and the flat coastal plain, not through dramatic topography.

The coastline near Los Altos alternates between sandy beaches and rocky coves. Cala de lo Ferri, at 2.0 km as the crow flies, is the closest swimming spot; Playa Rocío del Mar (2.3 km) and Cala Piteras (2.5 km) extend the choice, and Punta Prima's larger beach is about a 10-minute drive. This variety means residents can choose between quieter coves and full-service beaches with chiringuitos within a short radius. Golf is a defining recreational feature of the wider area. Three courses lie within 7.2 km: Villamartín (4.7 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (6.6 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (7.2 km). Together with the marinas at 3.3 km and 7.8 km, they support a leisure offering that extends well beyond the summer season. For everyday recreation, the communal pool and garden of the urbanisation are on-site, a public pool at Parque de las Naciones is 2.9 km away, and Snatch Fitness Center operates at 1.5 km. Football club CF Torrevieja is 5.0 km away. The flat terrain makes walking and running practical year-round given the climate data.

Within its immediate market, this house competes with both new-build apartments and resale homes across the Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa corridor. New-build apartments in Torrevieja, such as Apartments Palangre Beach (from €160,000) and Edificio Sun & Center (from €169,000), enter the market roughly €65,000 to €75,000 below this property's asking price, but they offer apartment typologies, typically fewer bedrooms and no private solarium or patio. Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso starts at €227,000, nearly level with this house, and positions itself further inland near the La Manga-facing salt-lagoon side rather than on the Torrevieja coastal strip. The distinction this property draws is typology and readiness: a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with three outdoor spaces (covered terrace, patio, solarium) and communal pool access, available immediately and furnished. New-build buyers trade this for modern construction standards, better insulation and community infrastructure in early phases, but also for waiting periods and completion risk where projects are not yet delivered. Locationally, Los Altos sits between two demand centres. Torrevieja provides urban services, the hospital and the bus network; Orihuela Costa provides the shopping centres at La Zenia and the golf cluster of Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Ramblas. Compared with frontline Orihuela Costa locations, where villa and apartment prices rise steeply, Los Altos prices the coast at a distance: beaches at 2.0 to 2.5 km rather than walking distance, in exchange for a quieter residential fabric and lower cost per square metre. Median provincial income of €15,750 and the region's large international resident base continue to shape a resale market where renovated 1970s housing stock competes directly with new development on price per usable space.
