Description
This very well-maintained and exceptionally versatile two-bedroom, two-bathroom property, ideally situated on the popular Los Altos urbanisation in Orihuela Costa.
Offering considerably more than first meets the eye, the property combines comfortable interior living space with an excellent selection of outdoor areas, including a large covered terrace, private driveway, workshop and a spacious first-floor solarium. Residents also enjoy the use of an attractive communal swimming pool with surrounding gardens, making this a superb choice for permanent living, extended holidays or a lock-up-and-leave home on the Costa Blanca.
The property has clearly been designed to make the most of the Spanish climate while still providing all the comforts required for year-round living.
Main Accommodation
The main level of the property offers a practical and comfortable layout.
Entering the home, you are welcomed into a good-sized lounge, providing an inviting space for relaxing and entertaining. The living accommodation feels bright and homely, with tiled floors for easy maintenance and plenty of room for comfortable seating.
An adjoining dining area provides a separate space for family meals and entertaining, while still maintaining an easy flow between the principal living areas.
The kitchen is modern, bright and well arranged, finished with clean white cabinetry, generous worktop space and ample storage. The layout has been designed to make excellent use of the available space and provides a practical kitchen for both everyday cooking and entertaining.
Also located on the main level is the first of the two double bedrooms, together with a separate bathroom incorporating a walk-in shower. Having both a bedroom and bathroom on the principal living floor is a particularly useful feature, whether for visiting family and friends or simply for creating greater flexibility within the home.
First Floor – Master Suite & Solarium
The first floor is dedicated primarily to the master bedroom, creating a more private area away from the principal living accommodation.
The master bedroom benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, giving the upper floor the feeling of a private owners' suite.
One of the property's real highlights is the generous first-floor solarium/terrace. This provides an excellent additional outdoor living area with plenty of room for sun loungers, seating and relaxation.
An additional building on this level is currently used for storage and as a summer kitchen, providing extremely useful extra space and offering further possibilities depending on the requirements of the new owners.
The terrace also benefits from an automatic sun awning, allowing the area to be enjoyed during both the cooler months and the hotter summer season.
Outdoor Living
Outside, the property really comes into its own.
There is a private gated driveway, providing convenient off-road parking, together with a useful workshop, ideal for storage, hobbies, tools or bikes.
To the front and side of the property are beautifully established outdoor areas with an abundance of mature Mediterranean plants, flowering shrubs and greenery, creating a surprisingly private and colourful environment.
A particularly attractive feature is the large fully covered terrace, which effectively provides an additional outdoor room.
With ample space for a dining table, chairs and comfortable outdoor furniture, it is the perfect setting for alfresco breakfasts, long lunches, evening meals or simply relaxing in the shade with a drink.
An electrically operated sun awning provides additional protection when required, making this an outdoor space that can genuinely be used throughout much of the year.
The combination of covered and open terraces, established planting and practical outdoor areas makes this property particularly appealing to anyone looking to embrace the Mediterranean outdoor lifestyle.

Los Altos – Orihuela Costa
The property occupies a sought-after position in Los Altos, one of the established residential areas of Orihuela Costa.

The beautiful coastline of Orihuela Costa is only a short drive away, with a choice of beaches and coves including Punta Prima, Playa Flamenca, La Zenia and Cabo Roig. Punta Prima, for example, offers a golden-sand beach with calm bathing waters and a range of services.
Depending on the exact destination and traffic, the principal beaches of the area can generally be reached in approximately 5–10 minutes by car from Los Altos.
For shopping, the renowned Zenia Boulevard is also just a short drive away. It is one of the major shopping and leisure destinations on the southern Costa Blanca, with more than 160 stores together with restaurants, cafés, leisure facilities and a hypermarket, making it possible to find almost everything required within a few minutes of home.
The lively coastal town of Torrevieja is also within easy reach, offering its marina, promenade, beaches, shopping facilities, restaurants, medical services and year-round entertainment.
Golf enthusiasts are particularly well catered for. Orihuela Costa is surrounded by excellent courses including Villamartín Golf, Las Ramblas, Real Club de Golf Campoamor and Las Colinas Golf & Country Club, all accessible within a relatively short drive. Orihuela's coastal area has long been recognised for its concentration of established golf courses and extensive coastline.
Road connections are excellent, with convenient access to the N-332 and AP-7, allowing straightforward travel both north and south along the Costa Blanca and towards the neighbouring Murcia region.
For international travel, Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport is generally around 45–55 minutes away by car, while Región de Murcia International Airport is approximately 45–60 minutes away, depending on traffic and the precise route.
A property with a great deal to offer.
The combination of two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a master en-suite, separate living and dining spaces, modern kitchen, extensive terraces, private parking, workshop, additional storage/summer kitchen, central heating, air conditioning, fibre internet and communal swimming pool makes it significantly more versatile than many properties in this price sector.
The established outdoor areas give the home real character, while the large covered terrace and upper solarium provide a choice of sun or shade throughout the day.
Whether searching for a comfortable permanent residence on the Costa Blanca, a spacious holiday home or simply a property with excellent outdoor living space close to the beaches and amenities of Orihuela Costa, this attractive Los Altos home deserves to be viewed.
