This completed apartment is located in central Torrevieja, a coastal city of roughly 98,500 inhabitants on the southern Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. The property offers 88 m² of built area with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, positioned within walking distance of Playa del Cura and the city's main urban amenities. The building dates originally from 1970, with the kitchen and main bathroom recently renovated. Ducted air conditioning, double glazing, marble flooring and a south-facing terrace are included. The asking price is €229,900. The location combines seaside access with full-year urban services, including shops, pharmacies, restaurants and public transport connections across the city.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in the urban centre of Torrevieja, at approximately 20 metres above sea level on flat terrain. Playa del Cura lies around 600 metres away on foot, with a supermarket 52 metres from the building and a pharmacy under 200 metres away. The nearest hospital is 4.1 km distant. This is a built-up city location rather than a low-density resort area.
The property functions as a full-year residence or second home. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one en-suite, accommodate families or guests. The south-facing terrace extends living space outdoors, and daily needs, shopping, pharmacies, cafés, are covered on foot. A car is not required for routine errands, though parking is not stated as included.
This is not a new-build project. The building dates from 1970 and the apartment is completed and ready for immediate occupation. The kitchen and main bathroom have been recently renovated. Ducted air conditioning (cooling and heating) and double glazing are installed. No construction phase or delivery timeline applies.
The property does not include a swimming pool, private garden, allocated parking space or storage room according to the stated features. It is an apartment in a 1970 building, so communal facilities and energy label details are not documented. One bedroom has been converted into a dressing room, reducing the immediate sleeping capacity unless reinstated.

This property suits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a car-free coastal base will find the essentials within walking distance: supermarket at 52 metres, pharmacy at 193 metres, beach under 700 metres. Retirees or semi-retirees wanting year-round services rather than a summer-only resort will value a city of 98,000 inhabitants with a hospital 4.1 km away and functioning winter infrastructure. Families needing three bedrooms with two bathrooms, including an en-suite, fit the layout, though the dressing-room conversion should be considered if all three bedrooms are needed simultaneously. Buyers prioritising outdoor space will note the south-facing terrace as the property's principal exterior asset. Second-home owners who fly in and out benefit from Alicante-Elche airport at approximately 35 km straight-line distance. Investors considering holiday rentals should verify local licensing rules in Torrevieja independently, as the Generalitat Valenciana regulates tourist lets. Conversely, buyers seeking a pool, garden, private parking or a modern energy-certified building should note these are not documented here. Those wanting a quiet, low-density environment may also find the city centre busier than peripheral residential zones such as Cabo Cervera or La Mata.
The apartment combines original 1970 construction with targeted modernisation. The kitchen and main bathroom have been renovated recently, with photographic material showing contemporary cabinetry and fittings. Flooring throughout is marble, a material typical of the era but durable and thermally cool in summer. Comfort systems are a strong point: ducted air conditioning provides both cooling and heating, and double glazing is installed, which improves thermal and acoustic performance relative to single-glazed stock of the same period in Torrevieja. The property is sold fully furnished, which reduces initial fit-out costs. The building façade has been maintained to a presentable standard, as visible in the street-view imagery. Buyers should apply standard due diligence to a 1970 building: an independent technical inspection (ITVE) can assess structural condition, electrical installation age, plumbing and the roof, particularly relevant for a top-floor unit where terrace and roof adjacency matter. No energy performance certificate details are provided in the available data, so buyers should request the existing certificate, as pre-2007 buildings often carry lower ratings unless upgraded. The sliding window from the living room onto the south terrace is a functional connection between interior and exterior space. Overall, the specification is that of a well-maintained resale apartment with selective renovation rather than a full redevelopment.
The asking price is €229,900, equivalent to roughly €2,612 per m² of built area. Within Torrevieja, comparable listings range from €169,000 (Edificio Sun & Center) to €255,000 (Edificio Vento), placing this property in the middle band of the local market. The price reflects a completed, furnished property with renovated kitchen and bathroom, three bedrooms and two bathrooms in a central location. The property is available for immediate purchase and occupation; there is no off-plan payment structure or construction risk. Additional purchase costs (transfer tax, notary, registry) apply separately under Spanish resale rules.
Daily life here is urban and pedestrian-oriented. The front door opens onto a street with a supermarket 52 metres away, and within a two-kilometre radius the data shows 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 24 banks and 27 dentists, the density of a working city rather than a seasonal resort. The nearest beach, Platja del Cura, is roughly 530 metres away, an under-ten-minute walk, and the seafront promenade connects the city's beaches. The apartment's south-facing terrace receives sun through the middle of the day, which matters in winter when the average temperature sits around 12°C and passive solar gain is useful. The slope to the beach is 0.8%, effectively flat, so cycling and walking are practical year-round. Torrevieja has a resident population of about 98,500, which means services, schools (three within two kilometres), healthcare, public transport with 14 lines and 50 stops, continue to operate outside the summer months. The rhythm of the area shifts seasonally: busier in July and August with holiday visitors, quieter but fully functional from October to May. The Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina sports centre is 1.2 km away, and Doña Sinforosa Park provides green space near the centre. For buyers accustomed to driving everywhere, this location works differently, most daily trips can be made on foot, and the car becomes optional rather than essential. EV charging is available in the wider area, with the nearest points 6 to 8 km away, so electric-vehicle owners without private charging should factor that distance in.
Torrevieja functions as a year-round city. Within two kilometres of the property, the data records 168 restaurants, 44 cafés, 27 pharmacies, 24 banks and 27 dentists, provision comparable to a provincial town rather than a holiday village. Three schools operate in the same radius, relevant for permanent relocation. Public transport covers the city with 14 lines and 50 stops, and the flat terrain (the whole municipality sits around sea level) makes cycling practical. The nearest hospital is 4.1 km away. Green space is provided by Doña Sinforosa Park near the centre, and the seafront promenade runs along the urban beaches. The city hosts 32 local public holidays per year, reflecting an active municipal calendar of fiestas and events, which adds activity to the centre across the seasons. Summer months bring a visible influx of visitors to the beaches and the Paseo Marítimo; from autumn to spring the pace returns to resident-oriented normality. Real Club Náutico marina is 1.1 km away for those with boating interests. The practical conclusion: daily errands, medical visits, schooling and leisure are all reachable without a car, though traffic and parking in the centre are typical of a city of this size.
The map shows the apartment's central Torrevieja position: Playa del Cura and Platja del Cura within 700 metres to the east, the marina and sports centre just over a kilometre north, and the Orihuela Costa golf courses 9, 10 km south along the coast. Alicante-Elche Airport lies roughly 35 km north-east.

Torrevieja records approximately 3,854 sunshine hours per year, among the higher figures for the Iberian Mediterranean coast. The mean annual temperature is 18.7°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season extends to roughly five months with sea temperatures at or above 20°C. The city sits at about 20 metres above sea level with a slope to the beach of 0.8%, effectively flat terrain with no climbs between the apartment and the shore. The immediate surroundings are urban; larger natural spaces include the Torrevieja and La Mata salt lagoons (the latter with its La Mata beach) and the viewpoints at Torre del Moro (3.0 km) and La Pinada (4.0 km). The climate supports year-round terrace use, which the south-facing orientation of this property's terrace complements.

Within Torrevieja, comparable listings provide context. Edificio Sun & Center, a key-ready development, starts at €169,000; Residencial Brisamar from €199,000; Edificio Vento from €255,000. At €229,900 for 88 m² (about €2,610/m²), this apartment sits mid-range. Newer builds such as Vento typically offer modern energy ratings, communal pools and elevators as standard, which this 1970 property does not document, the differentiator here is location and layout: three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a south-facing terrace in the historic centre, within 700 metres of Playa del Cura, where new-build supply is limited. Regionally, Torrevieja presents a different proposition from the Orihuela Costa urbanisations 8, 10 km south (Villamartín, Campoamor, La Zenia). Those areas offer gated complexes, pools and golf-adjacent living but depend on the car for daily needs; the Spanish-speaking city centre of Torrevieja provides walkable services, 14 bus lines and year-round commerce. Compared with the northern Costa Blanca (Benidorm, Alicante city), prices per square metre in Torrevieja generally run lower, and the climate profile, 3,854 sunshine hours, five-month swimming season, is comparable to or better than areas further north. For buyers weighing a resale city-centre apartment against new-build periphery, the trade-off is essentially specification age against location and space per euro. The neighbouring districts of Cabo Cervera and La Mata offer quieter, beach-oriented environments at similar price levels but with reduced service density.
