This two-bedroom penthouse is located in the Bonanza district of Benalmádena Costa. Constructed in 2002, the 80-square-metre residence includes a private roof terrace and sits within an established urbanisation. The property is positioned approximately 300 metres from the coastline and the commercial areas of Arroyo de la Miel. It features a south-facing orientation and includes a private underground parking space and storage room.
Compared to Aquamar in Torre del Mar, this property is closer to Málaga and commands a higher price due to its central location. Lantana Residencial in Mijas offers new builds at a lower price point but typically requires travel to reach the beach and main transport hubs. Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona represents the western Costa del Sol market, which is further from the airport than Benalmádena. The Benalmádena penthouse offers a higher density of immediate amenities than the Mijas or Estepona options. The inclusion of a private roof terrace and parking in a mature urbanisation distinguishes it from newer developments which may charge extra for these features.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The residence is situated in the Bonanza area of Benalmádena Costa, a fully developed urban zone. This location places the property within walking distance of the Mediterranean Sea and the town's transport hubs. The surrounding infrastructure is dense, providing immediate pedestrian access to a high volume of local services and public transport links.
The floor plan comprises two double bedrooms and two bathrooms across 80 square metres of internal space. The inclusion of a private roof terrace significantly expands the usable outdoor area. Practical features include a separate kitchen, double glazing, air conditioning, and a private underground parking space with a storage room. The layout is designed to separate sleeping and living areas.
This is a resale property completed in 2002. The development is fully established, meaning the construction phase is finished and communal facilities are operational. There is no waiting period for building completion; the property is available for immediate transfer and occupancy.
The property dates from 2002 and does not feature a private garden, relying on communal areas. Access to the beach involves a slope with a 7.3% gradient. As an urban penthouse, it is subject to the ambient noise levels of a busy town centre. The building does not adhere to the latest energy efficiency regulations required for new constructions.
This property suits buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave solution within a town centre. The proximity to Málaga Airport, approximately 9 kilometres away, makes it viable for frequent flyers. The two-bedroom configuration accommodates small families or couples requiring guest space. It may also appeal to investors looking for rental potential given the year-round demand and transport links. The steep slope to the beach may deter those with significant mobility issues. The urban setting is appropriate for buyers who prefer the vibrancy of a Spanish town over the isolation of a residential urbanisation.
The property is listed in good condition, reflecting maintenance since its construction in 2002. Technical installations include pre-installed air conditioning and double glazing for thermal and sound insulation. The kitchen is fully fitted with appliances. The internal specifications are consistent with standard construction practices of the early 2000s, providing functional living spaces without luxury finishes. The communal areas, including the pool, are noted as well-maintained.
The asking price for this penthouse is from €327,500. This figure reflects the market value of a resale property with a private roof terrace in a central location. The price includes the added value of a private parking space and storage room. As a completed unit, the price is fixed based on current market conditions rather than future development stages.
Daily life in this part of Benalmádena Costa is defined by convenience and accessibility. The Bonanza area functions as a practical residential hub where supermarkets, pharmacies, and eateries are within a short walk. The urban environment supports a lifestyle that does not strictly require a car for local errands, given the proximity of the train station. The penthouse serves as a vantage point above the street activity. The roof terrace allows for outdoor living with a degree of privacy. The terrain is undulating; walking to the beach is downhill, but the return journey involves a climb. The neighbourhood is active year-round, distinct from purely seasonal resorts, and suits those who prefer an infrastructure-rich environment over secluded tranquillity.
The immediate environment is characterised by a high density of amenities. Within a 2-kilometre radius, residents have access to over 190 restaurants and nearly 30 pharmacies. The Benalmádena - Arroyo de la Miel train station is 1.2 kilometres away, facilitating regional travel. The streets are lined with a mix of residential blocks and commercial storefronts. This integration means the distinction between residential and leisure zones is fluid. The urban fabric is pedestrian-friendly, though the terrain is undulating.
The map highlights the property's position in the Bonanza district, illustrating the proximity to the coastline and the railway line. The topography shows the elevation change from the urban plateau down to the sea, marked by a 7.3% gradient. Local amenities and the train station are visible within the immediate vicinity.
