Description
Built in 2002, this corner-position detached villa in La Siesta spans 338m2 of built space across a 580m2 plot, with six bedrooms, five bathrooms, a basement, a solarium and two dedicated parking spaces. The basement adds useful additional floor area beyond the main living levels. A jacuzzi and communal pool serve the complex, and the corner plot provides more external space than mid-terrace units of comparable build size.La Siesta is a well-established residential district roughly 3km south-west of Torrevieja's town centre and the Playa del Cura beach. The neighbourhood has its own local shops, bars and pharmacies along Calle Azahar and the surrounding streets, and sits close to the N-332 for straightforward access to Guardamar, Orihuela Costa and the AP-7 motorway. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 35 minutes by car. La Siesta's low-rise character and owner-occupier mix make it a consistently active resale market within Torrevieja.Annual IBI is 831 EUR and community fees are 300 EUR per year. The villa carries an energy rating of G, which is typical for a property of this age and size; buyers often factor efficiency improvements into their initial works budget. The build size and bedroom count make this property suitable for either a large family or a year-round holiday let, given Torrevieja's strong tourist rental demand.The 580m2 plot gives a practical outdoor footprint for the solarium terrace and the two parking spaces, with room for garden planting around the perimeter. The corner position means the property has open aspects on two sides rather than one, improving natural light throughout.

About La Siesta, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca for international property buyers. With over 300 days of sunshine per year, excellent healthcare facilities, and a large expat community, the area offers an outstanding quality of life.
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of the asking price?
As a resale in the Valencian Community, this purchase carries ITP transfer tax at 9% of the purchase price, rising to 11% on the entire value above €1,000,000. Note that tax is charged on the higher of the price paid and the property's official reference value, so treat any figure based on the asking price as a minimum. You should also allow for notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800) and legal fees (around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT). Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and these are worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed rates for Spanish mortgages sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though your rate will depend on your lender, residency status and financial profile. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers who work with international buyers in this area.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Annual IBI (council tax) is EUR 831. Community fees are EUR 300 per year, which covers maintenance of the communal pool and shared areas. Utilities including electricity, water and waste collection are additional. The energy rating is G, so electricity costs for heating and cooling are likely to be higher than for a more efficient property — worth factoring in if you plan year-round occupation.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call, and can carry out a live walk-through of the property so you can ask questions in real time. We can also provide additional photographs or measurements on request. An in-person visit is always recommended before exchange, but a video viewing is a practical first step.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja is one of the most active tourist rental markets on the Costa Blanca, with consistent demand from spring through to autumn. A six-bedroom villa with a jacuzzi, solarium and communal pool is well suited to group bookings, which typically command higher nightly rates than smaller units. You will need a valid tourist licence from the Valencian Community to let legally on a short-term basis; we can advise on the application process. We do not quote yield figures as returns vary with occupancy, management costs and seasonal pricing.
What steps are involved in buying a property in Spain?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is your Spanish tax identification number and is required for the purchase contract and mortgage. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. The sale is then completed before a notary, who registers the transaction. We recommend appointing an independent solicitor to carry out due-diligence checks on the title, planning status and any outstanding charges before you commit.
