Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
La Herrada is a residential district on the edge of Los Montesinos, a Spanish-speaking municipality of about 5,700 inhabitants in the Vega Baja del Segura. Daily amenities are within walking distance, including a supermarket, bars and restaurants. The village centre is a five-minute drive away, and the beaches of Guardamar del Segura roughly fifteen minutes by car.
The house is designed for comfortable full-time or seasonal living: three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private pool with heat pump, air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, mosquito screens and retractable awnings. It is sold fully furnished, so occupancy or rental use is possible directly after completion of the purchase.
This concerns an existing home completed in 2016 and described as key-ready. The condition is documented as excellent. There is no construction phase or waiting period; the transfer can take place according to the standard Spanish purchase process. Any completion dates mentioned by the seller are indicative.
The property does not offer a garage or private parking space listed in the data, nor a garden shed or separate storage room. It is a semi-detached house, so one wall is shared with the neighbouring property. Distances to beaches and larger cities require a car; there is no coastal location or seafront position.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a primary residence in a genuine Spanish village, with schools, a pharmacy and daily shopping nearby, will find the location practical: the centre of Los Montesinos is a five-minute drive and basic amenities are within walking distance. A second-home buyer who wants a lock-up-and-leave holiday house benefits from the turnkey condition, the furnished delivery and the heated pool, which extends comfortable use beyond the peak summer months. An investor considering rental use gets a property where the main operational features, solar panels to reduce electricity costs, a pool robot and cover to simplify maintenance, and air conditioning throughout, are already installed. The house is less obvious for buyers who want to be walking distance from the beach or in a coastal resort setting: the sea at Guardamar del Segura is a fifteen-minute drive. It also does not suit those seeking a fully detached villa with extensive grounds, given the semi-detached construction and plot size. Buyers who prefer new-build guarantees should note the house dates from 2016, which in practice means the construction is completed and visible rather than planned.
The interior is documented through the property's features and photographs. The living and dining area has marble flooring in an open-plan layout, a finish that is cool underfoot in summer and consistent with the property's positioning in the upper segment of the local market. The kitchen is a modern fitted unit opening onto an outdoor patio, which functions as a shaded dining space. Bathrooms have underfloor heating, a feature normally found in higher-specification homes, complemented by hot and cold air conditioning throughout the house. The laundry room is equipped with a stackable washer and dryer. Externally, the house is fitted with mosquito screens on all doors and windows and electric retractable awnings at the front and side, allowing sun exposure to be adjusted mechanically. The private pool is heated by a heat pump and comes with a cleaning robot and a protective cover, which together reduce both running costs and maintenance effort. Six solar panels contribute to the property's energy supply. The overall condition is recorded as excellent and the home was completed in 2016, meaning materials and installations are recent rather than dated. Delivery includes the complete high-end furniture package, so the finishing level extends to fixtures and furnishings rather than ending at the walls.
The asking price is fixed at €419,000 for this existing home; it is not a from-price and there is no range of units to choose from. The price reflects a turnkey package: the property is sold fully furnished with high-end furniture, a private heated pool with heat pump, pool cleaning robot and protective cover, six solar panels, air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, mosquito screens and electric retractable awnings. Compared with new-build projects nearby, which start from roughly €369,000 to €535,000 depending on specification and size, this house sits in the middle of the local price band while offering immediate availability and included installations. Availability is direct, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life in La Herrada revolves around a compact residential street pattern with low-rise housing, where the supermarket, bars and restaurants are reachable on foot. The house itself functions around its outdoor spaces: a south-west orientation means afternoon and evening sun on the terrace and at the pool, which suits the Spanish rhythm of dining outside for much of the year. The electric awnings at the front and side allow this exposure to be managed during the hotter months. Inside, the open-plan living area with marble flooring connects the living and dining zones, with the kitchen adjacent to an outdoor patio used for shaded dining. A separate laundry room with a stackable washer-dryer keeps household tasks out of the main living space. The three bedrooms and three bathrooms mean the house can accommodate a family or guests without sharing facilities. Los Montesinos itself is a working Spanish village rather than a tourist resort: shops, a school, a pharmacy, banks and cafés are all within a two-kilometre radius, and the pace outside the summer months remains steady and local. For excursions, the golf courses of La Finca, Villamartín and Campoamor lie between roughly six and eleven kilometres away as the crow flies, and the marina at Real Club Náutico is about eight kilometres distant.
La Herrada sits on the outskirts of Los Montesinos, a municipality of 5,682 inhabitants in the Vega Baja del Segura comarca. The immediate surroundings are residential, with a Dialprix supermarket, bars and restaurants in walking distance. Within two kilometres there are fifteen restaurants, seven cafés, four banks, one school, one pharmacy and a dentist, which covers most daily needs without driving. Public transport is limited but present: six lines and fifteen stops serve the area, though a car remains the practical choice for most residents. The village lies at about thirty metres above sea level, so the terrain is flat and easy to navigate on foot or by bicycle. Larger cities are within reach by road: Elche, with around 235,000 inhabitants, is 26 kilometres away as the crow flies; Murcia, at 34 kilometres, and Alicante, at 42 kilometres, provide regional services, hospitals and shopping. The area is quiet for most of the year, with activity concentrated in the village centre and along the nearby urbanisations; outside the summer season the rhythm is markedly local and slow-paced.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Los Montesinos occupies a inland position in the southern Vega Baja del Segura, inland from the Orihuela Costa and Guardamar beach strips. This places the property in a belt of residential villages, including the neighbouring urbanisations around Ciudad Quesada and Algorfa, that combine village prices with reasonable access to the coast. Within the wider region, it sits roughly equidistant in practical terms between the cities of Alicante to the north-east and Murcia to the south-west, both around forty kilometres distant as the crow flies, which is reflected in airport access via Alicante-Elche. Compared with the Costa del Sol further west, the Costa Blanca South offers a similar golf-and-beach formula at generally lower price levels, and Los Montesinos is one of the more affordable and authentically Spanish bases within it.
The beaches of Guardamar del Segura are a fifteen-minute drive from the house, which is the closest coastal option. Alicante-Elche Airport is roughly 33 kilometres away in a straight line, with the actual road distance somewhat longer; Valencia Airport lies about 164 kilometres distant and Málaga around 364 kilometres, making Alicante the practical arrival point for flights. For golfers, three courses sit within a short radius: Club de Golf La Finca at 5.6 km, Club de Golf Villamartín at 10.1 km and Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 11.4 km, all measured as the crow flies. The Real Club Náutico marina is 8.1 km away. An Iberdrola fast-charging point for electric vehicles is located 6.6 km from the property. Access by car is straightforward on flat terrain, and parking in a residential area of this type is generally unproblematic, although no private garage or allocated space is listed in the property data.

Los Montesinos records an average annual temperature of 18.7 °C, with monthly averages ranging from about 12 °C in winter to 26 °C in summer. The swimming season extends to roughly five months, during which sea water stays at or above 20 °C. The municipality sits at an elevation of thirty metres, meaning the terrain is essentially flat, a practical detail for walking, cycling and daily errands, with no steep climbs between the house and the village centre. The south-west and west orientation of the property maximises afternoon and evening sun, which suits outdoor living and dining but also makes the electric awnings a functional necessity in July and August. The Mediterranean climate, with mild winters and warm, dry summers, supports year-round occupation as well as seasonal use. The proximity of both sea and mountain views adds visual variety without the exposure of a frontline coastal position.

The nearest beaches, at Guardamar del Segura, are a fifteen-minute drive away and form part of a long sandy stretch of the southern Costa Blanca. For recreation closer to home, the area is notably strong on golf: La Finca, Villamartín and Campoamor are three established courses within roughly six to eleven kilometres as the crow flies, each with eighteen holes and associated club facilities. The Real Club Náutico marina, 8.1 km distant, offers berths and water-based leisure. On a day-to-day level, a taekwondo sports club operates just 200 metres from the property, and the flat terrain makes walking and cycling realistic forms of exercise. Restaurants and cafés within two kilometres, fifteen and seven respectively, provide regular dining options without needing to travel. For broader leisure, the cities of Elche and Alicante are within an hour by car, adding cultural and retail variety to the coastal and golf offer of the immediate area.

Within Los Montesinos itself, this house competes directly with the new-build developments of La Herrada and the wider village. Vinci La Herrada markets units from €369,000, while Residencial Laguna Azul and Essence I are listed from €525,000 and €535,000 respectively. At a fixed €419,000, this property sits between those bands. The relevant trade-off is straightforward: new-build projects offer current construction standards and developer warranties but involve a purchase from plans or a recent delivery without furniture, whereas this house is an existing, completed home from 2016 that includes its full furniture package, a heated pool with heat pump, solar panels, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and motorised awnings. For a buyer valuing immediate usability, whether for personal occupancy or rental, the included installations shorten the route to operation considerably. Compared with the surrounding region, Los Montesinos prices below the Orihuela Costa beachfront and below Marbella-area equivalents on the Costa del Sol, reflecting its inland position roughly fifteen minutes from the sea. The compensation is a genuine village context with a year-round Spanish population of around 5,700, daily amenities within walking distance, and a flat terrain at thirty metres elevation that suits permanent residence as much as holiday use. Buyers weighing this property against a new-build alternative should also consider that the 2016 construction means any settling issues and early maintenance have already occurred and are observable, while the mechanical and electrical installations, pool heat pump, solar panels, awnings, are delivered in working order rather than as upgrades to be contracted separately.
