This top-floor duplex apartment is situated in Punta Prima, a coastal residential area on the southern Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. The property offers two bedrooms, one renovated bathroom and 65 m² of living space, complemented by a private roof terrace. Built in 1970 and now key-ready, it is offered at a fixed asking price of €132,000, sold fully furnished and with air conditioning installed. Playa Punta Prima lies approximately 0.8 km away as the crow flies, and the surrounding neighbourhood provides restaurants, cafés, pharmacies and banks within a two-kilometre radius. The apartment includes access to a communal swimming pool and street parking.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Punta Prima sits on the southern Costa Blanca, roughly 40 km straight-line from Alicante-Elche airport and 37 km from Murcia. The apartment stands in a built-up town setting within walking distance of shops and the sea. Three golf courses, two marinas and several beaches, including Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km, surround the area within six kilometres.
The layout places one bedroom and the renovated bathroom on the first level, with a spiral staircase leading to a second bedroom and a private roof terrace. The open-plan living area connects to a fully fitted kitchen. Air conditioning, double glazing, fitted wardrobes and full furnishing make the home usable immediately, while a communal pool covers seasonal leisure needs.
This is not a new-build project. The apartment dates from 1970 and is described as being in excellent condition following renovation of the bathroom. The construction status is key-ready, meaning the property can be transferred in its current finished state. No further construction phases or delivery dates apply; completion of the original building took place in 1970.
The property has one bathroom only and 65 m² of living area, which limits space for larger households. Parking is on-street rather than private or underground. There is no private garden, private pool, lift or storage room mentioned in the data. The building's age of 1970 means the construction predates current building standards. No garage space is included in the asking price.

This property fits a buyer seeking a modestly priced, ready-to-use coastal apartment rather than a new-build home. Recognisable situations include: a couple looking for a compact second home near the beach, where the 65 m² layout and roof terrace cover holiday needs without high running costs; a single buyer or retiree who values walkability, with shops, pharmacies and the beach within easy reach and thirteen bus lines in the area; an investor targeting the rental segment of the southern Costa Blanca, where furnished, key-ready units near the sea can be let quickly; and buyers with a budget below the region's new-build entry price of roughly €160,000. The property suits less well: families needing two bathrooms or more floor area; buyers who require private parking, since only street parking is available; and those wanting a modern building standard, given the 1970 construction date. The single bathroom and the spiral staircase are structural characteristics that set the boundaries of practical use. For part-year residents who spend winters elsewhere, the furnished condition and communal pool reduce management effort. For permanent residents, the flat coastal terrain, mild average annual temperature of 18.9°C and year-round amenities support full-time occupation outside the tourist season.
The property combines original 1970 construction with targeted updates. The bathroom has been renovated, and the apartment is described as being in excellent condition overall. Interior features include a fully fitted kitchen, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms and double glazing, which improves insulation and reduces street noise relative to single glazing. Climate control covers both hot and cold air conditioning, allowing year-round temperature regulation, relevant given local monthly averages that range from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The apartment is sold fully furnished, so it can be occupied or let without a furnishing investment. The duplex structure with its spiral staircase is a space-efficient solution typical of top-floor conversions of this period; it also imposes a physical constraint, as spiral staircases are less practical for residents with limited mobility and for moving large furniture upstairs. The private roof terrace extends the usable outdoor area beyond the 65 m² interior. Utilities connected include electricity and drinking water. No lift is present, which is consistent with the building's age. Street parking replaces any dedicated space. Buyers considering long-term ownership should factor the building's age into maintenance planning: 1970s constructions on the Costa Blanca vary in upkeep, and the condition of communal elements such as the pool, façade and roof should be verified during a viewing or technical inspection. The combination of double glazing, air conditioning and a renovated bathroom indicates that essential comfort systems are in place, while deeper structural and installation checks remain a buyer's due diligence.
The apartment is offered at a fixed asking price of €132,000. This is an existing home from 1970, not a new development with a price list, so there is no range of unit types or from-prices. The price reflects a compact two-bedroom, one-bathroom property of 65 m² with a roof terrace, sold furnished and with air conditioning. Comparable new-build apartments in the region start higher: apartments in Torrevieja begin from around €160,000 to €169,000, while projects in Urbanización El Raso start from €227,000. Availability is immediate in principle, as the property is key-ready and can be transferred in its current condition. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs, as these are not included in the asking price.
Daily life in this duplex apartment revolves around its compact two-level layout. The lower floor holds the open-plan living and dining area with the fitted kitchen, one bedroom and the renovated bathroom. A spiral staircase leads upstairs to the second bedroom and the roof terrace, a private outdoor space that serves as the property's main leisure area, suitable for outside seating and evening use given the south-facing orientation. The absence of a second bathroom means morning routines are routed through a single facility, which matters for households of three or more. The communal pool functions as the shared outdoor amenity, typical for buildings of this era in Punta Prima. The neighbourhood itself is practical: within two kilometres there are 29 restaurants, seven cafés, three pharmacies, three banks and three dentists, so daily errands do not require a car. A supermarket and commercial centre are present in the wider area according to the existing description. The beach is a short walk at roughly 0.8 km as the crow flies, along a flat gradient of 2.5 percent, which makes the walk manageable for most residents. Torrevieja can be reached on foot along the coast in about thirty minutes, with an hourly bus service as an alternative. Thirteen public transport lines and fifty stops serve the area, supporting car-free living for part of the year, although many residents keep a vehicle for regional trips. The Saturday market at Playa Flamenca adds a weekly rhythm of fresh produce shopping. Street parking replaces a dedicated space, which requires some flexibility during the busy summer months.
The surroundings of Punta Prima are defined by a dense concentration of daily amenities and coastal leisure within a short radius. Within two kilometres, residents can reach 29 restaurants, seven cafés, three pharmacies, three banks and three dentists, which places most daily needs within walking or short driving distance. The nearest beach, Playa Punta Prima, lies 0.8 km away as the crow flies, with two further coves, Playa Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km and Cala Piteras at 1.1 km, offering alternatives within the same stretch of coast. The gradient to the beach is a flat 2.5 percent, so the walk is easy. Sports facilities include Snatch Fitness Center at 1.6 km and Villamartin Golf at 3.6 km. For electric vehicle owners, three charging points sit within five kilometres: Ionity La Zenia at 2.8 km, Iberdrola at 4.4 km and Eranovum at 4.7 km. Public transport consists of 13 lines and 50 stops, sufficient for local journeys such as the bus to Torrevieja, which is also a thirty-minute coastal walk away. Larger urban centres frame the region: Elche, with around 235,000 inhabitants, lies 36 km straight-line, Murcia with roughly 463,000 inhabitants at 37 km, and Cartagena at 45 km. This positions the apartment in a well-serviced tourist-residential zone with genuine urban options within an hour's drive.
The map shows the apartment's position in Punta Prima relative to the nearest beaches at under one kilometre, the golf courses of Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Ramblas, and the road corridor towards Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa. Distances shown are straight-line; actual road routes are longer. The markers indicate amenities within a two-kilometre walking radius and regional connections towards Alicante and Murcia.

Punta Prima occupies the southern stretch of the Costa Blanca between Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa, close to the boundary with the Murcia region. Its position gives it dual orientation: towards Alicante and its airport at roughly 40 km, and towards the cities of Murcia and Cartagena at 37 and 45 km respectively. Within the Costa Blanca's southern resort belt, it is one of the more established neighbourhoods, with building stock largely from the late twentieth century alongside newer developments. Compared with the Costa del Sol further west, at about 363 km from Málaga airport, the area offers lower entry prices and a denser concentration of services oriented to year-round residents. The proximity of Torrevieja, walkable along the coast in thirty minutes, anchors the locality to a larger town's healthcare, retail and administrative offer.
Accessibility is anchored by Alicante-Elche airport (ALC) at approximately 40 km straight-line, making air travel practical for international owners; Valencia airport lies at roughly 173 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol at about 363 km. The existing description notes both Murcia and Alicante airports are within thirty minutes by car, referring to travel time rather than straight-line distance. By road, the AP-7 motorway corridor connects Punta Prima with Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and the wider region, although road distances exceed straight-line figures. Beach access is direct: Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km, with two coves just beyond one kilometre. Golfers reach Club de Golf Villamartín at 3.8 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 5.6 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 5.8 km. Two marinas, Real Club Náutico at 4.5 km and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 5.8 km, serve sailing and mooring needs. Within the neighbourhood itself, the 13 bus lines and 50 stops provide a public transport network unusual for an area of this size, supporting residents who prefer not to drive daily. Street parking is the only parking option, which is a consideration during peak summer weeks.

The local climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 18.9°C and monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. This pattern supports outdoor use of the roof terrace for most of the year, with the south-facing orientation maximising sun exposure during shorter winter days. The swimming season lasts approximately five months, during which sea temperatures hold at or above 20°C, aligning pool and beach use with the late spring to early autumn period. Elevation is low at 31 metres above sea level, and the terrain towards the beach is flat with a 2.5 percent gradient, so no significant slopes affect walking or cycling in the immediate area. The coastal position moderates temperature extremes compared with inland Alicante province. Rainfall concentrates in the cooler months, consistent with the regional pattern, leaving summers predominantly dry. For residents, this translates into a long outdoor season, minimal heating demand in winter when combined with the hot air conditioning function, and a realistic five-month window for sea swimming. The roof terrace functions as usable living space across all four seasons.

The beach offer around the apartment is varied within a short distance: Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km as the crow flies is the nearest, followed by Playa Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km and Cala Piteras at 1.1 km, giving three swimming options inside little more than a kilometre. The existing description notes that local beaches hold Blue Flag status for water quality and cleanliness. Recreational infrastructure extends inland: three golf courses, Villamartín at 3.8 km, Campoamor at 5.6 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 5.8 km, sit within a ten-minute drive, and a gym, Snatch Fitness Center, operates at 1.6 km. Water sports, fishing and sailing are available along this stretch of coast, supported by two marinas at 4.5 km and 5.8 km. A communal swimming pool at the building covers daily swimming without leaving the complex, and a kids' pool facility is noted at 2.8 km. The Saturday market at Playa Flamenca provides a weekly recreational shopping outing. Altogether the area supports an active coastal lifestyle with beaches, golf, water sport and fitness options densely packed within roughly six kilometres.

Within its segment, this apartment competes primarily on price. Comparable new-build projects nearby start noticeably higher: APARTMENTS PALANGRE BEACH in Torrevieja lists from €160,000, EDIFICIO SUN & CENTER, also key-ready in Torrevieja, from €169,000, and OASIS LAGUNA 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso from €227,000. Against these, the fixed €132,000 asking price of this 1970 duplex represents a gap of at least €28,000 to the cheapest new-build alternative, and nearly €100,000 to the El Raso project. The trade-off is structural: the new projects deliver current building standards, typically better energy performance and often private parking, while this property offers a 55-year-old building with a renovated bathroom, double glazing, air conditioning and full furnishing. Locationally, Punta Prima is closer to the beach than the inland El Raso development, with Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km, and it shares Torrevieja's amenity catchment given the thirty-minute coastal walk between them. Buyers choosing between these options are effectively weighing immediate lower entry cost and walkable beach proximity against new construction guarantees and modern layouts. For the southern Costa Blanca generally, this part of the coast carries a higher density of year-round services than more seasonal resort zones, supported by 13 public transport lines and a working population spread across Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and the Murcia border towns. The median provincial income of €15,750 per year contextualises the local price level: at €132,000, the apartment is priced within reach of the regional second-hand market median rather than at the premium end. Rental demand in Punta Prima comes from both tourism and permanent residents, which is relevant for buyers considering letting the property in periods of non-use.
