This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment sits directly on the seafront at Playa del Cura in Torrevieja, on the Costa Blanca South. Completed in 2007, the building occupies a front-line position facing the Mediterranean, with the beach effectively at the doorstep. The apartment offers 98 m² of living space on the third floor, a covered private terrace with direct sea views, ducted air conditioning, a parking space in the same building, and use of a recently renovated communal pool. Sold furnished and key-ready, with a fixed asking price of €459,000, the property is presented in good condition with recently replaced kitchen appliances and fresh paintwork.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands in a front-line beach building at Playa del Cura, a coastal district of Torrevieja. The beach lies immediately below the complex, with Platja del Cura roughly 300 metres along the shore and Cala del Palangre about 0.6 km away as the crow flies. Shops, bars, restaurants, public transport and the bus station are within walking distance, which reduces dependence on a car for daily errands.
The layout serves three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one en-suite, with fitted wardrobes throughout and a separate laundry room off the independent kitchen. The south-east orientation places morning and midday sun on the terrace, which opens from both the living-dining area and the master bedroom. A lift serves the third floor, and a private parking space within the building simplifies car ownership in a busy beachfront zone.
This is an existing home, not a new-build development. The building was completed in 2007 and is described as well maintained, with a recently renovated communal swimming pool. The apartment itself is key-ready: appliances have recently been replaced, the interior has been repainted, and the sale includes furniture. No construction phase or delivery date applies, as the property can be occupied immediately after purchase.
The property is an apartment in a communal building, so there is no private garden or private pool; outdoor swimming is shared with other residents. Built area stated as approximately 120 m² in the source listing, with 98 m² of living space. Located in an urban beachfront setting, the surroundings are busier in the summer tourist season than in winter months. No information is available about storage rooms beyond fitted wardrobes, or about community fees.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple or family seeking a permanent coastal home with year-round amenities will find the established infrastructure, schools, pharmacies, banks and 13 public transport lines within reach, supports full-time residence rather than seasonal use. Buyers wanting a furnished holiday apartment that can be used immediately will value the key-ready condition and the fact that no additional furnishing budget is required. Those who plan to rent the property out when not in use benefit from the front-line beach position and the three-bedroom layout, which broadens the potential tenant group beyond couples. Households with one or two cars will note the included private parking space, a practical asset in a beachfront district where demand for parking is high in summer. The property suits buyers who prioritise view and proximity to the sea above private outdoor space: there is a covered terrace but no private garden. It is less suited to those seeking a detached villa, a private pool or a quiet rural setting, since the environment is urban and lively, particularly in July and August. Buyers intending to personalise the interior extensively should factor in that the apartment is delivered finished and furnished, with recently renewed appliances and paintwork, meaning most immediate work has already been carried out. Finally, the 2007 construction year places the building in a middle generation between older Torrevieja stock and current new-build developments, which some buyers weigh against modern energy standards.
The building dates from 2007, which places it in a construction generation with solid mainstream standards for the Spanish coast: reinforced concrete structure, cavity walls and aluminium or PVC window frames typical of the period. The apartment has been maintained and partially updated: kitchen appliances have recently been replaced and the interior repainted, so the finish is presentable without renovation. The climate system is ducted air conditioning supplying both cold and hot air, a step up from simple split units, as it distributes air through ceiling vents in the main rooms. Interior layout materials follow conventional Spanish resale standards: tiled floors, fitted wardrobes in all three bedrooms, and two full bathrooms, one en-suite. The bathrooms shown in the listing photography present modern fittings, including a vessel sink and a shower unit. The independent kitchen with separate laundry room is a functional layout feature increasingly rare in newer compact builds, where kitchens are usually integrated into the living space. The building itself has a lift and a communal swimming pool that was recently renovated, indicating that community maintenance is active rather than deferred. A private parking space within the building is included. As with any 2007 property, buyers may wish to verify through a technical survey the condition of installations such as plumbing, electrics and the air conditioning unit, since these have a finite service life. No energy certificate details or cadastral data are reproduced here; these should be requested from the seller during due diligence.
The asking price is fixed at €459,000 for the complete property, including furniture, appliances and the private parking space. This is an existing home completed in 2007, so there is no price list, no phase-based increases and no reservation structure typical of off-plan projects. The price reflects the front-line position: direct sea views, immediate beach access and an established building with a renovated communal pool. Buyers comparing against new-build options in Torrevieja will find apartments starting from roughly €160,000 in comparable projects such as Palangre Beach or Sun & Center, though those are typically smaller units further from the waterfront. Completion is immediate; the transaction follows the standard resale process in Spain.
Daily life here revolves around the seafront. The apartment looks directly over Playa del Cura, and the rhythm of the day follows the coast: morning light on the south-east facing terrace, walks along the promenade, and the practical convenience of having the beach at the foot of the building. The location is urban rather than residential-quiet, meaning cafés, restaurants and shops operate year-round, not only in summer. Within a 2 km radius the area counts 134 restaurants, 41 cafés, 22 pharmacies, 23 banks and 23 dentists, which indicates a fully established service infrastructure rather than a seasonal resort. Two schools sit within the same radius, a relevant point for families considering permanent residence. The apartment's interior supports a settled household routine: three bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, an en-suite bathroom for the master bedroom, a separate second bathroom for guests or children, and an independent kitchen with its own laundry room. Ducted air conditioning provides both cooling in summer and heating in the cooler months, which matters in a coastal climate where January averages around 12°C. The lift and in-building parking space reduce friction in daily comings and goings, particularly during the high season when street parking near the beach becomes scarce. For a buyer splitting the year between two countries, the furnished, key-ready condition means the home can be used from the day of completion without renovation work or furnishing projects.
The immediate surroundings are those of a consolidated Torrevieja beach district. Playa del Cura sits at the foot of the building, with the next cove, Platja del Cura, about 300 metres away and Cala del Palangre roughly 0.6 km as the crow flies. Daily needs are covered on foot: the density of restaurants, cafés, pharmacies and banks within 2 km means most errands require no car. Public transport is well developed for a town of this size, with 13 lines and 50 stops in the area, including connections to the bus station within walking distance. For sport and leisure, the Real Club Náutico marina lies 1.2 km away as the crow flies, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina sports centre 2.1 km, and the CF Torrevieja football facilities 2.4 km. A hotel pool is 0.9 km away and a public residential pool at Parque de las Naciones 2.1 km, though residents have the communal pool in their own building. The Torre del Moro viewpoint, 3.1 km along the coast, is a familiar destination for evening walks. The setting is lively rather than tranquil: summer months bring tourists to the beaches and promenade, while the winter population is noticeably smaller. Buyers seeking year-round quiet may prefer locations further inland, whereas those who enjoy an active seaside town will find the area well matched to that preference.
The map shows the front-line position at Playa del Cura, with the beach immediately below the building and the coves of the Torrevieja coastline stretching south. The concentration of restaurants, pharmacies and shops within 2 km illustrates how walkable the district is, while the markers for the marina and sports facilities show the short distances to leisure infrastructure. Alicante-Elche Airport sits roughly 35 km to the north-east.

Playa del Cura is one of Torrevieja's established beach districts, positioned on the southern Costa Blanca between the major urban centres of Elche, Murcia and Alicante. Torrevieja functions as a mid-sized, service-rich coastal town rather than a resort enclave: it supports a permanent population alongside its seasonal visitors, with full-year commerce and healthcare. Within the wider region, the town is known for its beaches and its proximity to the Orihuela Costa golf courses, while remaining one of the more accessibly priced segments of the Spanish Mediterranean coast compared with Marbella or the Golden Mile. The location suits buyers who want front-line seaside living with urban convenience rather than an isolated or gated setting.
Accessibility is one of the stronger points of this location. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) lies approximately 35 km away in a straight line, a drive typically completed in well under an hour, which keeps international travel practical for second-home owners. Valencia Airport is roughly 169 km away and Málaga around 368 km, making Alicante the natural gateway. Regionally, Torrevieja sits between the larger cities of Elche (32 km, some 235,000 inhabitants) and Murcia (40 km, around 463,000 inhabitants), while Alicante city itself is 44 km away, a spacing that gives residents access to three substantial urban centres without living in any of them. Within the town, a car is optional rather than essential: shops, medical services and the beach are walkable, and 13 public transport lines with 50 stops cover the municipality. For drivers, charging infrastructure is available at Ionity La Zenia (8.2 km) and Iberdrola Oasis Center (8.3 km) as the crow flies. The included private parking space within the building is a practical advantage, since street parking near the beachfront comes under pressure during the summer months. Golfers reach Villamartín at 9.0 km, Campoamor at 10.9 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 11.3 km straight-line, all within a 15-20 minute drive.

The climate data points to a typical low-lying Costa Blanca South coastal regime. Average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coldest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual average of 18.8°C, mild winters and warm but not extreme summers, moderated by the sea. The swimming season lasts around five months, during which sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above, roughly May through September. The elevation is only 10 metres above sea level, so the terrain is flat: no steep climbs from the promenade to the apartment, a practical point for older residents or anyone with mobility considerations. Rainfall is low by European standards, and the region records a high number of sunshine hours per year, which supports the terrace-oriented use of the property: the south-east orientation captures morning and midday sun while avoiding the most intense late-afternoon heat. The immediate natural environment is coastal rather than green or mountainous; the nearest notable woodland viewpoint, La Pinada, lies 4.8 km away as the crow flies. Buyers picturing pine-covered hillsides within sight of the terrace should adjust that image: the view here is sea, beach and the town's seafront skyline.

The beach situation is the defining feature. Playa del Cura is at zero distance, the building faces it directly, and the adjoining Platja del Cura is about 300 metres away, with the small Cala del Palangre cove at 0.6 km. This gives residents a choice between a busy urban beach and quieter rocky coves within a short walk. Water sports and moorings are based at the Real Club Náutico marina, 1.2 km away as the crow flies. For structured sport, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina is 2.1 km away, CF Torrevieja facilities at 2.4 km, and a private fitness centre at 3.9 km. Golf is the region's other recreation pillar: three courses, Villamartín (9.0 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (10.9 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (11.3 km), all straight-line distances, sit within easy driving range in the Orihuela Costa belt. The communal swimming pool in the building, recently renovated, provides an alternative to the sea outside the warm months. Evening and weekend recreation is largely coastal: the promenade, the Torre del Moro viewpoint at 3.1 km and the restaurant density of the town centre dominate the local leisure pattern. Cultural life is modest but present, with 32 local public holidays per year in the municipal calendar reflecting the Spanish festival tradition.

Within Torrevieja and the surrounding Costa Blanca South market, this property occupies the front-line segment, which is structurally distinct from the new-build stock currently marketed in the town. Comparable projects such as Apartments Palangre Beach (from €160,000), Edificio Sun & Center (from €169,000) and Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in El Raso (from €227,000) offer modern construction and, in some cases, communal facilities, but at notably lower entry prices per unit. The difference is largely explained by position and size: those developments sit inland or in second-line locations with smaller floor plans, whereas this apartment faces the Mediterranean directly with 98 m² of living space, three bedrooms and an included parking space. Per square metre, the €459,000 asking price works out at roughly €4,690 for the living area, a premium consistent with beachfront scarcity in an established town. Regionally, Torrevieja sits between the Elche, Murcia and Alicante metropolitan areas, all three within roughly 30-45 km, which supports year-round demand for both residential use and rental. The Costa Blanca South market as a whole trades below the Costa del Sol in price per square metre, and Torrevieja specifically attracts a mix of Northern European second-home buyers and permanent residents drawn by the flat coastal terrain, the mild climate averaging 18.8°C annually, and the five-month swimming season. Against Marbella or Estepona, the buyer profile and price point differ considerably, but the fundamentals that drive coastal demand, airport access at 35 km from Alicante-Elche, beach proximity and golf within 9-11 km, are present here at a lower entry level. For buyers weighing this apartment against new-build alternatives, the trade-off is between the immediacy, space and view of a 2007 front-line resale and the contemporary specifications, warranties and phased pricing of inland new construction.
