This property is a 30 m² studio apartment located in Benalmádena, Málaga. Situated on the third floor, the home is fully furnished and equipped. The building features communal amenities including a swimming pool, gardens, and 24-hour concierge service. The location is urban and directly coastal, with various services within walking distance. The property is currently under long-term rental, making it a relevant consideration for investment purposes.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The location is defined by its immediate proximity to the Mediterranean Sea and an urban environment. The apartment is situated in a neighborhood with a high density of amenities, with shops and dining options available in the vicinity. The coastline is located a short distance away, establishing a permanent maritime atmosphere in the area.
The functional profile of this project suits individuals or investors seeking a low-maintenance residence. The absence of separate bedrooms and the compact surface area of 30 m² makes it suitable for single-person households or for stays during shorter periods. The presence of air conditioning and a fully fitted kitchen supports a move-in-ready status.
The construction status of the project is 'Ready'. This implies that all construction and finishing phases have been completed and the residence is immediately available for use. There is no waiting time or completion risks typically associated with off-plan developments.
The project does not offer a private garden or exclusive outdoor space beyond a potential balcony. With a living area of 30 m², the space is limited, which may be less suitable for long-term stays by multiple people or families. No parking space is included with the property.
This property fits well with the scenario of an investor seeking direct rental yield, given the current occupancy. It is also an option for a single person looking for a 'pied-à-terre' on the Costa del Sol without the maintenance responsibilities of a larger villa. It could also serve as a holiday home for those who want to step out the door without worrying about garden maintenance. For those seeking a full-time family residence with more space, this object offers insufficient volume and functionality.
The studio is described as being in 'excellent' condition. The finishes include laminate flooring, providing a modern and low-maintenance appearance. The kitchen is fully fitted and equipped, indicating a home that is immediately usable without renovation costs. The bathroom includes a shower and is finished with standard sanitary fixtures. Air conditioning is present for both cooling and heating, which is essential for comfort in this climate. The presence of an elevator in the building contributes to the accessibility of the third-floor apartment.
The asking price for the studio is set at €159,000. This is a fixed price point, with no variation in underlying segments for this specific unit. Given the nature of the property as a studio in a high-demand area, this price category is typical for coastal investment properties. Availability is immediate, given the ready status of the home.
This apartment offers a living environment entirely driven by the dynamics of the Spanish coast. The direct surroundings are active and urbanized, meaning residents experience standard city life: traffic noise, proximity to neighbors, and a constant flow of passersby. For those who appreciate an environment where everything is within reach, this location offers a high level of convenience. The beaches of Benalmádena, such as Playa Malapesquera, are within a few minutes' walk, dictating the daily rhythm during the months when the weather permits. The presence of 24-hour reception in the complex adds an extra layer of service and security, which is particularly practical for owners who are not permanently present.
The living environment is characterized by a high density of amenities. Within walking distance, various supermarkets, pharmacies, and dining options are present. The neighborhood has a distinct urban character with significant traffic and activity. For daily groceries, the use of a car is not necessary. The proximity to the train station Benalmadena - Arroyo de la Miel, at approximately 800 meters, provides a connection to the regional rail network, facilitating mobility along the coast without dependence on a car.

Benalmádena is located in the west of the province of Malaga, between the towns of Torremolinos and Fuengirola. This position makes it a central spot within the Costa del Sol.

The distance to the provincial capital Malaga is limited, approximately 12 kilometers, ensuring good regional connectivity.
The strategic location ensures short distances to essential amenities. The nearest beach, Playa Malapesquera, is located at a distance of 229 meters as the crow flies. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport is situated at a distance of 9.3 kilometers, guaranteeing a relatively short transfer time. For golfers, the nearest facilities, Golf Benalmadena Pitch&Putt, can be found at a distance of 3.4 kilometers. A supermarket is located 245 meters away, bringing daily provisions within easy reach.

Compared to new build projects in surrounding municipalities like Mijas (Arosa, starting from €490,000) and Fuengirola (Waterfall Residences, starting from €720,000), this object presents itself as an option with a lower entry price. The main differences lie in the size and age of the property. Where the comparison projects are often new builds with multiple bedrooms and larger surface areas, this concerns a compact studio in an existing complex. For investors looking to bind less capital or for whom a second home serves purely as a place to sleep, this project offers a financial advantage. Compared to the regional median income, the price point is accessible for the local rental market, which is relevant for rental possibilities.
