This fully renovated penthouse forms part of El Rincón, a gated community in Punta Prima on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers approximately 77 m² of living space with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a south-east orientation, a balcony overlooking the communal pool and a 57 m² private rooftop solarium with sea views. A private parking space is included. The asking price is fixed at €234,900 and the home is sold furnished and key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property sits in Punta Prima, a coastal district within Orihuela Costa's sphere, roughly 40 km as the crow flies from Alicante-Elche airport. Playa Punta Prima lies 0.8 km away in a straight line, with Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km. The gradient towards the coast is 2.5%, which is flat, and the terrain sits at 31 m above sea level.
The layout serves households needing two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, one with a bathtub and one with a shower. The kitchen is fully equipped including a dishwasher, and central air conditioning is installed. The 57 m² solarium with barbecue and awning extends the usable outdoor space well beyond the 77 m² interior, suiting buyers who prioritise private outdoor living.
This is an existing property, originally completed in 1970 and since fully renovated, with construction recorded as key-ready. There is no building phase, no staged payments and no delivery risk. The transfer can proceed as soon as the standard notarial process is complete. Any refurbishment dates beyond the description are not documented in the available data.
The property is an apartment within a community, not a detached villa, and outdoor space is limited to the balcony and rooftop solarium. There is no private swimming pool. The building dates from 1970, which some lenders factor into mortgage terms. Community fees of €68.99 per month and annual property tax of €130 apply. The exact energy performance is not stated in the source data.
This property matches several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a permanent coastal home will find the two-bathroom layout practical, since guests or a growing household need not share facilities. Buyers wanting a lock-up-and-leave holiday base benefit from the gated setting, the included parking space and the furnished transfer, which reduces the setup period to days rather than months. Purchasers focused on rental investment will note the combination of proximity to the beach, 0.8 km as the crow flies, a communal pool and a private solarium, features that typically support seasonal letting demand on this stretch of coast. It is equally relevant to buyers downsizing from a larger villa who want to keep private outdoor space without garden maintenance; the solarium provides that, and the flat 2.5% gradient to the beach keeps walking routes manageable. The property is less obviously suited to families needing three or more bedrooms, to buyers seeking a fully detached house with a private pool, or to those wanting brand-new construction with developer warranties, the building dates from 1970 and has been renovated rather than rebuilt. Buyers who rely entirely on public transport will find 13 lines and 50 stops nearby, though most residents in this area use a car for longer journeys. Finally, anyone sensitive to summer crowds should note that Punta Prima is an established tourist destination, meaning the immediate surroundings are busier in July and August than in the quieter winter months.
The property is described as fully renovated, and the documentation specifies several concrete elements of that works. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a dishwasher, with photographic evidence showing white cabinetry of a modern style. Central air conditioning covers climate control throughout the interior, and one bathroom has a bathtub while the second has a shower, a practical split that serves both quick mornings and longer soaks. The home is transferred furnished, which typically includes the items visible in the listing photographs: an open-plan living room with integrated lighting and a balcony dining area. The building itself dates from 1970, so the renovation applies to the interior and installations rather than the structural shell; a technical survey remains the standard instrument for verifying building condition at this age. The rooftop solarium, at 57 m² larger than the interior itself, comes with a barbecue installation and an awning, meaning shade is available without additional works. A lift serves the building, which matters both for daily convenience and for future accessibility. Outdoor elements in the communal areas, the pool surrounded by palm trees and gardens, are maintained collectively through the community fee of €68.99 per month. In summary, the finishing level reflects a completed refurbishment rather than a project requiring further investment, though buyers should independently verify the age and guarantees of the installed systems, as exact dates of the renovation are not documented in the source data.
The asking price is fixed at €234,900. This covers the renovated penthouse of about 77 m², sold furnished, including the rooftop solarium and a private parking space within the gated community. As an existing, key-ready property there is no price list or unit variation: the figure applies to this specific home. Ongoing costs are documented at €68.99 per month in community fees and approximately €130 per year in IBI property tax. Comparable new-build apartments in the wider area start from €160,000 in Torrevieja and from €227,000 at Oasis Laguna 2 in El Raso, which places this property's pricing in context against both cheaper and similar-priced alternatives in the region.
Daily life in this penthouse is organised around two levels of living. Inside, roughly 77 m² hold an open living area, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with the kitchen equipped to dishwasher standard. The living room opens onto a balcony that looks directly over the communal pool, framed by palm trees and gardens, so morning coffee takes place above the water rather than beside a road. The private entrance means no shared interior corridor. Upstairs, the 57 m² solarium functions as a second living room outdoors: a barbecue, an awning for shade and sea views make it usable from breakfast through to sunset, and the south-east orientation brings light in early. Because the home is sold furnished, the practical threshold for moving in is low, utilities, community registration and a notarial transfer are the main steps. The neighbourhood supports a car-light routine. Supermarkets and services sit just outside the gated community, and within two kilometres the data lists 29 restaurants, seven cafés, three pharmacies, three banks and three dentists, enough to cover weekly needs without longer trips. The communal pool removes the maintenance burden of a private one while still offering swimming on site. For errands or leisure further afield, 13 public transport lines serve the area through 50 stops, and a private parking space inside the gates removes the search for street parking on summer evenings. The setting suits year-round residence as much as seasonal use, since the amenities are permanent rather than tourist-seasonal.
The immediate environment combines residential calm inside the gated community with everyday convenience directly outside it. Supermarkets and various services sit at the gate, and the two-kilometre dataset shows a dense amenity base: 29 restaurants, seven cafés, three pharmacies, three banks and three dentists. Sports facilities include Snatch Fitness Center at 1.6 km, while golfers have three courses within six kilometres, Villamartín at 3.8 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 5.6 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 5.8 km. Beach access is a defining feature: Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km as the crow flies, Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km and Cala Piteras at 1.1 km give three options within walking range, and the 2.5% gradient means the walk is flat. Electric-vehicle owners can charge at Ionity La Zenia (2.8 km), Iberdrola (4.4 km) or Eranovum (4.7 km). Marinas at Real Club Náutico (4.5 km) and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (5.8 km) serve boating interests. Public transport covers 13 lines and 50 stops locally, though road distances will exceed the straight-line figures given. Larger urban centres, Elche at 36 km and Murcia at 37 km as the crow flies, are reachable for specialised services, hospitals and cultural outings.
The map shows the property's position in Punta Prima, with the coastline and its three nearby beaches immediately to the east. Markers indicate the golf courses to the west, the marinas to the south and the concentration of shops and services around the community itself. Straight-line distances shown are as the crow flies; actual routes are longer.

Punta Prima occupies a position at the southern end of the Costa Blanca, close to the boundary with the Mar Menor area of Murcia. The regional context is defined by Orihuela Costa's chain of golf courses and beaches, with Torrevieja a short distance north. Larger cities, Elche (36 km, around 234,765 inhabitants) and Murcia (37 km, around 462,979 inhabitants), provide metropolitan services, hospitals and airports-adjacent infrastructure, while Cartagena lies at 45 km. The province's median income of €15,750 per year provides a socioeconomic reference point for the wider area. This positioning gives the location a dual character: quiet residential coast with strong tourism infrastructure in summer.
Accessibility is anchored by Alicante-Elche airport, roughly 40 km away as the crow flies, which places the property within a short transfer of its main international gateway; the drive is longer than the straight-line distance. Valencia airport lies at approximately 173 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol at about 363 km as the crow flies, making them secondary options. Within the locality, the flat terrain and the concentration of shops at the community gate reduce dependence on the car for daily errands, while the included private parking space removes the seasonal pressure of finding a spot near the beach. Three beaches sit within 1.1 km straight-line distance, and the golf courses and marinas listed all fall within a six-kilometre radius. Public transport, 13 lines across 50 stops, provides a workable alternative to driving for local journeys, though the data does not specify frequencies. Road distances to all points mentioned will be longer than the straight-line figures, a normal consideration in coastal developments.

The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.9 °C, with monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in the coolest months to 26 °C at the height of summer. The swimming season extends to five months with sea temperatures at or above 20 °C, which aligns with the pattern of outdoor living the solarium and balcony are designed for. Elevation is 31 m above sea level, and the gradient towards the beach is 2.5%, effectively flat, so walking to the coast involves no climb. The south-east orientation of the penthouse means direct sun from early morning, favouring breakfast on the balcony and shade-seeking later in the day under the solarium awning. Rainfall patterns are not specified in the dataset beyond the temperature range, but the mild winter average of 12 °C supports year-round occupation rather than purely seasonal use.

Beach recreation is the strongest recreational asset of this location. Playa Punta Prima lies 0.8 km away in a straight line, with two further coves, Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km and Cala Piteras at 1.1 km, giving residents a choice of sandy and rocky settings within walking distance. The communal pool inside El Rincón adds an on-site swimming option maintained by the community. Golf is well represented: Villamartín (3.8 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (5.6 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (5.8 km) form a triangle of established courses typical of the Orihuela Costa area. Fitness facilities include Snatch Fitness Center at 1.6 km. For water-based recreation, two marinas, Real Club Náutico at 4.5 km and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 5.8 km, offer mooring and nautical services. The dataset does not specify Blue Flag status for the individual beaches, so this cannot be confirmed here.

Within the immediate regional market, this penthouse competes with several documented new-build alternatives. In Torrevieja, Apartments Palangre Beach starts from €160,000 and Edificio Sun & Center from €169,000, both positioned at noticeably lower entry points. Closer in price, Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso starts from €227,000, roughly €8,000 below this property's fixed price, though as a "from" figure that likely applies to smaller or less favourably situated units. The comparison highlights what the €234,900 asking price represents: an existing, completed home in a gated community with a 57 m² private solarium, sea views, a private parking space and a full furniture package included. New-build alternatives at similar budgets may offer modern construction and developer warranties but often price outdoor space, parking or furnishing separately, and "from" prices frequently exclude the better-oriented units. The building's 1970 origin is the main structural difference: buyers obtain a renovated interior within an established shell rather than new construction, which affects both mortgage terms at some lenders and the character of the surroundings, mature palm gardens and an established community rather than a construction zone. Locationally, Punta Prima sits between Torrevieja's urban density and the golf-orientated developments of Orihuela Costa, offering beach proximity measured in hundreds of metres rather than kilometres. The documented running costs, €68.99 monthly community fees and €130 annual IBI, are modest for a gated complex with a pool in this region, a factor worth weighing against the newer comparables, whose community fees are not stated in the available data. As always with existing homes, the fixed price leaves room for negotiation in the standard Spanish offer process, whereas new-build list prices are typically firmer.
