| | second line after beachfront/just behind beachfront/ | Explanation:
Those are the most usual expressions used by the english speaking real estate brokers here in the Costa del Sol, and also how I usually translate the required term.
"Beachfront" being "primera línea de playa", of course. |

| Grading comment Thanks, as fkirton said, I don't think this is to be taken too literally. I went with "just behind the beachfront" (so it is not just one block, but an undetermined number of blocks).

51 mins confidence: peer agreement (net): +2 second-line property
Explanation:
having disagreed with Juliana's response, I feel the least I could do is to make an attempt of my own - doubtless to be shot down likewise!
If this is talking about property (I think it usually is), then this is the term I have usually seen bandied about.
However, the ST seems a bit odd here. What exactly uis bing "revitalised" here? OK, it's the campaign, not the properties, but this is badly expressed, no?
I think I'd end up with something resembling:
(...) the campaign for the second-line property market..

By the way, "second-line" always implies 2nd row back from the beach or whatever is the object of the holidaymakers at that particular resort (golf, etc). If it's a seaside resort, then there's no need to specify "the beach"
