This spacious duplex penthouse is located in the residential area of Bel Air, near Estepona. Featuring four bedrooms and two bathrooms, it offers a substantial living area of 100 m². The location combines the tranquility of a suburb with proximity to urban amenities and the beach, making it an attractive option for those seeking a property on the Costa del Sol with both space and convenience.
Compared to other projects in the Estepona area, such as Acqua Gardens (from €418,800) and Aby Upper (from €320,000), this four-bedroom duplex penthouse, starting at €560,000, is positioned in the higher price segment. This pricing is likely attributable to its larger living area (100 m² compared to undisclosed sizes for Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper) and its specific type as a duplex penthouse with four bedrooms. Alba Benalmadena, with a starting price of €699,000, is significantly more expensive, indicating a different price level or set of features. The location in Bel Air, an established urban neighborhood, offers immediate access to amenities and beaches (Playa del Saladillo at 880 m), which is a valuable asset for its price. The presence of 21 restaurants and various sports facilities within a 2 km radius highlights the urban convenience, while the proximity to golf courses (1.3 km) also appeals to golfers. This combination of urban convenience, coastal accessibility, and the property's size justifies its higher price bracket compared to some other options available in Estepona.
