Before and After

Back to galery

Some properties are simply sold, while others become part of a city's commercial history. This is one of them.

We are proud to present the building that was home for many years to the renowned Despensa Salmantina, one of Torrevieja's most respected gourmet food stores and delicatessens. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a landmark commercial property recognised by generations of local residents for its reputation, quality and prime location.

The building offers 143 m² of built space, thoughtfully distributed across three levels to maximise functionality for a wide variety of businesses.

The ground floor provides 56 m² of commercial space, ideal for retail, customer service or product display. The first floor offers 70 m², perfectly suited for storage, offices, packaging or operational work areas. The upper level features a 17 m² rooftop terrace, providing additional versatile space that can be adapted to suit different business needs.

One of the property's greatest advantages is that it already includes a range of professional installations, representing significant savings for the future owner. These include cold storage rooms and industrial facilities, making the building particularly attractive for businesses in the food industry or other commercial activities requiring specialised equipment.

Its vertical layout makes this property especially appealing for businesses that need to combine retail space with substantial storage capacity without sacrificing a central location.

It is particularly suitable for:

E-commerce businesses.
Distribution companies.
Specialist retail stores.
Gourmet food businesses.
Delicatessens and premium food retailers.
Wholesale businesses.
Logistics companies.
Showrooms with integrated storage.
Businesses requiring large inventory capacity.

The exterior features an elegant natural stone façade that offers a professional appearance, requires minimal maintenance and creates an excellent first impression for customers and clients alike.

Located in the heart of Torrevieja, the property benefits from excellent visibility, strong pedestrian traffic and easy access to the city's main commercial areas.

Very few commercial properties combine history, prestige, functionality and business potential in the way this building does. Whether you wish to continue its commercial legacy or develop an entirely new concept, this is an outstanding opportunity to acquire one of Torrevieja's most iconic commercial buildings.
