This key-ready apartment is located in a residential neighbourhood of Torrevieja, within walking distance of Playa de los Locos on the Costa Blanca. The property offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (one en-suite), 86 m² of living space and a private terrace. It is sold fully furnished and includes a lift-accessed building, an exceptionally large underground parking space with its own storage room, and access to a communal swimming pool. The asking price is fixed at €269,500. The building dates from 1970 and is part of a well-maintained complex with 24-hour concierge service and low annual running costs.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands in a quiet residential district of Torrevieja, roughly 100 metres as the crow flies from Playa de los Locos. Shops, supermarkets, restaurants and other daily amenities are within short walking distance. The town centre, the marina and the Palacio de Deportes sports complex lie between 2 and 3 kilometres away. The area is flat, with a gradient of about 1.7% towards the sea.
The layout with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one en-suite, suits both permanent residence and use as a second home. The private terrace and the communal pool provide outdoor space, while the fully furnished condition allows immediate occupancy. The oversized underground parking space with separate storage room is a practical feature uncommon in this price segment of coastal apartments.
This is not a new-build project. The apartment forms part of a residential complex completed in 1970 and is available key-ready, meaning it can be transferred in its current finished state. The building is described as well maintained, with a lift, communal pool, pool-side toilets, additional communal storage and 24-hour concierge service. Any dates related to transfer are indicative and depend on the purchase process.
The property does not offer a private garden or a private swimming pool; pool access is communal. With 86 m² of living space and two bedrooms, the apartment is compact by villa standards. The building dates from 1970, so the construction period is older than recent new-build developments nearby. No information is available about recent renovation of installations or an energy performance certificate.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple or small family seeking a permanent coastal home with moderate running costs will find the two-bathroom layout practical, and the €85 monthly service charge unusually low for a complex with a pool and concierge. Buyers wanting a lock-and-leave second home benefit from the furnished condition, the secure underground parking and the presence of a 24-hour concierge, which reduces worries during long absences. Those who prioritise beach proximity above all will note that few listings place the sea within a hundred metres as the crow flies while remaining in a quiet residential street rather than a front-line tourist strip. The apartment also suits older buyers or anyone with limited mobility concerns: the terrain is flat, the building has a lift, and pharmacies, doctors and daily shops are all within a short radius. It is less obvious for buyers seeking a large villa, a private pool or a modern new-build specification, the building dates from 1970 and the pool is communal. Buyers intending to let the property informally should verify local regulations themselves. In short, the profile matches pragmatic buyers who value location, low fixed costs and included extras over contemporary architecture.
The interior photographs show a functional, dated-but-maintained finish: a bathroom with both bathtub and shower, a kitchen with wooden cabinets and a tiled splashback, a twin bedroom, and a living room opening onto a balcony with a view. The apartment is delivered fully furnished, which covers the immediate practical needs of occupancy. As a 1970 building, the construction predates current insulation and efficiency standards; no energy performance data has been supplied, and buyers assessing winter comfort or electricity costs should factor in that older Spanish buildings often rely on electric heating and split-unit air conditioning rather than central systems. The structural and communal condition is supported by visible investment in the complex: a well-maintained appearance, a communal pool with adjacent toilets, additional communal storage, a lift and 24-hour concierge service, all covered by the €85 monthly charge. The strongest technical asset is the parking arrangement: an exceptionally large underground space with its own storage room, a feature that adds daily convenience and holds value independently of the apartment. A technical survey, as customary in Spanish transactions, remains the appropriate instrument for verifying installations, wiring and plumbing before purchase.
The asking price is a fixed €269,500 for the apartment as offered: fully furnished, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, 86 m² of living space, a private terrace, and the large underground parking space with separate storage room included. As an existing home, no price list or unit variation applies, the price refers to this specific property. Running costs are documented and low: service charges of €85 per month and combined IBI and waste collection tax of approximately €470 per year. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process; any transfer timeline remains indicative.
Daily life around this apartment revolves around the pedestrian rhythm of a settled Torrevieja neighbourhood. Playa de los Locos sits about one hundred metres away as the crow flies, which in practice means the beach functions as an extension of the street: morning walks along the shore, an afternoon swim during the five-month season when water temperatures stay at or above 20°C, and evening strolls without needing the car. The nearest shops, supermarkets and restaurants are reachable on foot, and the density of amenities within two kilometres is high, the data lists 170 restaurants, 47 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists and 24 banks in that radius. That scale of provision means daily errands rarely require travel beyond the immediate district. The neighbourhood itself is described as quiet and residential, so outside the peak summer weeks the streets retain a local character rather than a purely tourist one. The apartment supports this lifestyle directly: the private terrace offers private outdoor space, the communal pool with adjacent toilets serves longer days around the water, and the very large underground parking space with its own storage room absorbs everything from bicycles to beach gear. Because the flat is sold fully furnished, the transition to use, whether as a permanent home or a holiday base, involves little more than personal belongings. Public transport adds a layer of convenience, with 12 lines and 50 stops in the area, useful for trips into the town centre or towards nearby coastal villages when the car stays in the garage.
The immediate environment combines residential calm with dense amenity provision. Within a two-kilometre radius, the area intelligence counts 3 schools, 27 pharmacies, 27 dentists, 24 banks, 47 cafés and 170 restaurants, figures that reflect an established, year-round town rather than a seasonal resort. The beach anchors the daily routine: Playa de los Locos at 0.1 km as the crow flies, Cala del Palangre at 0.3 km and Playa del Cura at 0.9 km give three swimming options within a short walk. For sport, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina lies 1.9 km away and the football facilities of CF Torrevieja at 2.2 km. The Real Club Náutico marina is 2.0 km from the door. Public transport is solid for a town of this size, 12 lines and 50 stops, and the flat terrain with a 1.7% gradient to the sea makes walking and cycling realistic for most daily trips. Car owners will appreciate that the charging points nearest to the property (Iberdrola stations) sit 7 to 8 kilometres away, so an electric vehicle requires planning or a home charging solution.
The map shows the apartment in its residential setting just back from the coastline, with Playa de los Locos a hundred metres away and Playa del Cura and the marina within two kilometres. The flat terrain and the cluster of beaches, shops and transport stops around the property illustrate how compact daily life here is.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Within the southern Costa Blanca, Torrevieja occupies a mid-point position: 44 km from Alicante city, 32 km from Elche and 39 km from Murcia as the crow flies, with Alicante-Elche airport roughly 36 km away. This places the town closer to the Murcia corridor and the Orihuela Costa golf belt than to the northern Costa Blanca resorts. Compared with villages further inland, Torrevieja offers full urban services year-round; compared with Alicante city, it is smaller, flatter and more beach-oriented in character.
Accessibility is one of the location's practical strengths. Alicante-Elche airport (ALC) lies approximately 36 km away as the crow flies, which typically translates into a drive of around half an hour to forty minutes depending on traffic; Valencia airport is roughly 169 km away and Málaga airport about 367 km, making Alicante the operative gateway for international travel. Regionally, Elche (234,765 inhabitants) sits 32 km away in a straight line, Murcia (462,979 inhabitants) at 39 km and Alicante city (339,322 inhabitants) at 44 km, so larger urban services, hospitals, shopping, cultural amenities, are all within day-trip range. Golfers have three courses within about 12 km: Villamartín at 9.9 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 11.8 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 12.1 km. Locally, the combination of 12 bus lines, 50 stops and flat streets means a car is convenient rather than essential; the included underground parking space removes the usual coastal parking pressure entirely.

Torrevieja sits at roughly 20 metres above sea level on flat coastal terrain, with a 1.7% gradient towards the shore, no hills stand between the apartment and the sea. The climate is typically Mediterranean: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual average of 18.7°C. The swimming season lasts about five months, during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20°C, roughly May through September. Winters are mild by Northern European standards, though the older construction of a 1970 building means heating behaviour in the cooler months deserves attention during a viewing. The town's population of about 65,212 sustains year-round services, and the surrounding region includes the salt lagoons of Torrevieja and La Mata nearby, which contribute to the area's distinctive microclimate and open natural spaces along the coast.

Three beaches sit within one kilometre as the crow flies. Playa de los Locos (0.1 km) is effectively the local beach, reached in a couple of minutes on foot; Cala del Palangre (0.3 km) offers a smaller cove alternative; and Playa del Cura (0.9 km) provides a broader urban beach with its promenade. This concentration means beach choice can vary with mood and season without ever needing the car. Beyond swimming, the recreational offer extends to the Real Club Náutico marina at 2.0 km for sailing and water activities, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina at 1.9 km for indoor sport, and CF Torrevieja's facilities at 2.2 km. Golf completes the picture: three 18-hole courses, Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Ramblas de Orihuela, lie between 9.9 and 12.1 km away, all reachable in fifteen to twenty minutes by car. The communal pool on site covers the days when the sea is less inviting.

Set against current new-build supply in the same market, this apartment occupies a distinct position. Nearby comparable projects advertise from-prices of €160,000 (Palangre Beach), €169,000 (Edificio Sun & Center) and €227,000 (Oasis Laguna 2, Fase II in Urbanización El Raso). At a fixed €269,500, this property sits above those entry points, but the comparison is not straightforward: new-build from-prices usually exclude parking, storage, furniture and closing costs, whereas this sale includes a fully furnished home, an exceptionally large underground parking space and a separate storage room, extras that in new developments often add tens of thousands of euros. Location also differs. The Palangre Beach and Sun & Center projects sit in central Torrevieja, while Oasis Laguna 2 lies in El Raso, a quieter inland urbanisation near the La Mata natural park, several kilometres from the beach and dependent on the car. This apartment combines near front-line beach access (about 100 metres to Playa de los Locos) with a residential street setting. The trade-off is age: a 1970 building versus contemporary construction standards, with the associated questions about insulation and installations that a technical survey should answer. Running costs also compare well; €85 per month in service charges is modest for a complex with pool and concierge, and total fixed costs (charges plus IBI and waste tax) of roughly €1,490 per year are low for the region. For buyers weighing old-but-complete-and-central against new-but-basic-or-inland, this property represents the former approach: everything included, on the beach side of town, at a price that reflects those certainties.
