Torrevieja boosts La Mata with an urban transformation that strengthens its residential appeal
Living by the Mediterranean means well-being, mild weather all year round and a more relaxed, healthy lifestyle. Enjoying outdoor walks, open spaces and having everyday services within walking distance is part of the lifestyle that more and more people are looking for, whether to live permanently or to invest in a second home.
In this context, Torrevieja continues to establish itself as one of the most dynamic cities on the Costa Blanca. Alongside its wide range of beaches, leisure options, shops and services, the city is clearly committed to urban improvement and the modernisation of public spaces, a key factor that directly influences quality of life and property values.
One of the most significant projects in this regard is located in La Mata, a highly sought-after area thanks to its proximity to the sea, its peaceful atmosphere and its strong local identity within the municipality.
A strategic project for La Mata: underground parking and full renovation of public space
The Torrevieja City Council has promoted the development of an underground car park at Plaza Encarnación Puchol, a project that will completely transform this central space in La Mata and significantly improve both mobility and the urban environment.
The project includes the creation of 3,802 square metres of underground parking space, with capacity for approximately 126 vehicles. This will free up surface space in the square and reduce on-street parking, a particularly important solution in consolidated coastal areas where balance between residents, visitors and commercial activity is essential.
At surface level, the intervention will reorganise 4,500 square metres, creating a more functional, accessible and attractive public space. The project includes new paving, landscaped areas and tree planting adapted to the coastal environment, a children’s playground, rest areas and pergolas providing shade, as well as improved access to shops and hospitality venues, encouraging local economic activity and social life.
The aim is to turn the square into a modern, comfortable meeting point designed for people, strengthening the urban and residential character of La Mata.
Direct impact on quality of life and property value
From a real estate perspective, well-planned urban improvements have a very positive and lasting impact. Enhancing the urban environment results in greater comfort for residents by solving parking issues, more attractive and functional public spaces, and an increase in the perceived value of nearby properties.
These projects also attract increased interest from national and international buyers, strengthen local commerce and improve the overall experience for residents and visitors throughout the year. La Mata, already appreciated for its natural beach and family-friendly atmosphere, further reinforces its medium- and long-term appeal.
La Mata: one of the areas with the greatest potential in Torrevieja
Beyond this urban transformation, La Mata offers an excellent balance: proximity to the sea, services within walking distance, good connections to Torrevieja town centre and a calm, international atmosphere. This makes it an ideal option for permanent living, holiday homes or rental investment.
