Description
A new-build penthouse on the second floor of a 24-unit residential complex in Los Frutales, Torrevieja, offering 93 m2 of internal living space across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The development includes a private solarium, giving the penthouse its own outdoor space above the roofline. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 35 minutes by road. The complex sits around 300 metres from the coast, according to the developer's information.Los Frutales is a residential quarter on the southern edge of Torrevieja, close to the Salinas de Torrevieja salt lagoons and within easy reach of Playa de la Mata, one of the town's longest stretches of fine-sand beach. The neighbourhood connects directly to the N-332 coastal road, putting the promenade, weekly markets, and the town centre within a short drive. Los Frutales attracts both permanent residents and holiday buyers because of its quieter streets and proximity to the lagoon park.The development carries an energy rating of G. Community fees are not currently charged, though this should be confirmed at the reservation stage as charges typically apply once the complex is operational. IBI and waste collection figures are not yet available for this new build and should be requested from the developer. The tourist rental market in Torrevieja is active year-round, and the 300-metre proximity to the coast makes this a property worth considering for short-let income.

About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of the asking price?
As a new build in the Valencian Community, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.4%. ITP does not apply. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet this region's conditions (for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence) — worth checking before you budget. On top of taxes, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry registration, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for independent legal advice.
Can I get a Spanish mortgage as a non-resident?
Yes. Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents up to 60–70% loan-to-value on a property like this, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents generally run between 3.5% and 4.5% per annum, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. Your solicitor or an independent mortgage broker can help you compare products before you commit.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are listed as nil at present, but charges will almost certainly apply once the development is fully operational and the owners' community is constituted — confirm the projected figure with the developer before signing. Annual IBI (council tax) and waste collection figures are not yet available for this new-build property; ask the developer or the local Torrevieja town hall for an estimate based on the catastral value once assigned.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Torrevieja immediately. A member of the OceanHome team can walk through the show unit or the completed property on screen, answer questions in real time, and share additional footage of the communal areas, solarium, and pool. Contact us to schedule a time that suits you.
Is there rental potential in this location?
Torrevieja is one of the busiest tourist destinations on the Costa Blanca, with strong demand for short-term rentals from spring through to autumn and a growing winter market from northern European visitors. The 300-metre distance to the coast, the private solarium, and the communal pool are features that typically attract holiday renters. To let the property legally in the Valencian Community you will need a tourist licence; your solicitor can advise on the application process and local regulations before you purchase.
What is the purchase process for this property?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE number (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras or contrato privado de compraventa) in which a further deposit is paid, typically 10% of the purchase price. For new builds, stage payments may be required during construction. Completion takes place before a notary in Spain, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes are paid and the title deeds are signed over to you.
