This beachfront townhouse in Benalmadena occupies a frontline position with direct sea views. Completed in 2000, the 103m² property offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms across multiple levels. The residence benefits from a south orientation, maximising natural light throughout the day. Included within the sale are two independent parking spaces and an underground storage facility. The complex features a communal pool and garden area, while the property's elevated position provides panoramic views stretching across Fuengirola bay and beyond.
When compared to similar properties in Benalmadena's market, this townhouse occupies a distinctive position. The Blossom Hills development offers properties from approximately €338,900, representing a more affordable entry point but without the frontline coastal positioning. The Blossom development, starting from €418,000, competes more directly on price but typically lacks the immediate beach access and panoramic views characteristic of this property. Finca Dona Maria, with prices from €430,000, offers comparable pricing but generally represents a different property type with varying specifications. This townhouse's premium of approximately €39,000 above Finca Dona Maria can be attributed to several factors: its direct sea views, the inclusion of two legally separate parking spaces (an uncommon feature adding significant value), and its immediate beachfront location. When viewed within the broader Costa del Sol market, properties with comparable positions in more exclusive areas such as Marbella would command substantially higher prices, positioning this Benalmadena property as relatively affordable for its beachfront credentials. The established nature of the complex, with mature landscaping and settled community, offers advantages over newer developments still undergoing construction phases elsewhere in the region.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property sits directly on the coastline of Benalmadena, in an established urban environment with comprehensive amenities within walking distance. Located between Torremolinos and Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol, the townhouse is positioned just 229 metres from Playa Malapesquera and 588 metres from Playa de Santa Ana. This strategic placement offers immediate beach access whilst maintaining connection to the town's infrastructure and services.
The townhouse accommodates functional living requirements with a practical layout. The ground floor features an independent kitchen leading to an open-plan dining and lounge area with a fireplace for cooler evenings. Both bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, with the master boasting an ensuite bathroom with sea views. Private terraces on multiple levels provide outdoor living spaces, whilst the two dedicated parking spaces and underground storage room address practical storage and parking needs for residents.
Constructed in 2000, this property represents established development rather than new construction. The building has maintained good condition over its two-decade lifespan, with the complex having matured landscaping and well-established communal facilities. The property requires no pending construction phases or completion waiting periods, representing a fully realised residential environment with immediate occupancy potential and stable community surroundings.
This property does not offer the expansive layout of larger developments, limited to its 103m² footprint. It features only two bedrooms, restricting accommodation capacity. The property does not include a private garden, instead utilising communal areas. Unlike newer developments, it does not benefit from the latest energy efficiency technologies or contemporary design elements. The townhouse is not situated within a gated community and lacks exclusive on-site facilities such as a spa or gymnasium.
This property suits those seeking an established coastal home rather than a speculative investment. Secondary home buyers will appreciate the immediate availability and settled surroundings, allowing for straightforward holiday planning without development uncertainties. The excellent transport connections make it suitable for those requiring occasional access to Málaga city or airport, potentially serving as a base for part-time residents splitting time between countries. Retirees or downsizers will find the two-bedroom format manageable whilst the walkable location reduces dependency on driving. The combination of private terraces and communal areas offers both seclusion and social opportunities, appealing to those wanting balance between privacy and community. Buyers looking for rental potential will benefit from the year-round tourism in Benalmadena and the property's proximity to the Carvajal train station, which facilitates easy access for holidaymakers.
The property features quality finishing materials typical of Mediterranean construction from its era. Marble flooring throughout provides durability and cooling properties beneficial in the warm climate. Bathrooms are appointed with tiled surfaces and include a notable feature in the master ensuite: a shower designed with sea views, combining functionality with the property's coastal positioning. Fitted wardrobes in both bedrooms offer integrated storage solutions with finished interiors. The private terraces demonstrate practical construction with tiled flooring and appropriate drainage systems. The independent kitchen, whilst not specified as high-end, is designed for practical use with adequate workspace. Considering its 2000 construction date, the property shows evidence of good maintenance standards with the energy efficiency rating pending assessment, which would provide insight into the building's thermal performance and potential upgrade needs.
The property is priced from €469,000, positioning it within the mid-range of Benalmadena's property market. When compared to similar local developments such as Blossom Hills (from €338,900) and Blossom (from €418,000), this property commands a premium due to its frontline position and sea views. The inclusion of two legally separate parking spaces adds significant value uncommon in comparable properties. Annual running costs include approximately €900 for IBI (property tax), €290 for basura (rubbish collection), and €96 monthly community fees, which collectively represent standard municipal charges for the area and property type.
Daily life in this townhouse revolves around its coastal orientation and proximity to amenities. Morning routines begin with sea views from the bedrooms and terraces, where coffee can be enjoyed overlooking the Mediterranean. The short walk to beaches facilitates spontaneous swimming or seaside walks before midday. The urban location allows for easy procurement of daily necessities, with 194 restaurants and numerous shops within a 2km radius. The train station within walking distance enables car-free days, with direct connections to Málaga city and airport. Evenings might be spent on the private terrace, watching the sunset over the bay, or enjoying the communal pool area. The established neighbourhood atmosphere provides year-round community spirit rather than seasonal holiday emptiness, with local festivals and events occurring throughout the calendar.
The immediate surroundings offer comprehensive urban convenience within a compact radius. Daily essentials are easily accessible, with 28 pharmacies and 23 banks within 2km, alongside five schools and nine dental practices facilitating family needs. The property's location enables a car-optional lifestyle, with 15 public transport stops and nine bus routes serving the area. Benalmadena-Arroyo de la Miel train station, just 0.9km away, provides direct connections to Málaga city centre, airport, and Fuengirola. Healthcare facilities are well-represented with two health centres within the municipality. Shopping opportunities range from local businesses to larger retail hubs accessible via the train network. The town's recreational infrastructure includes 219 sports facilities, while the 24 hotels and 11,154 tourist beds indicate a well-developed tourism infrastructure that supports year-round amenity availability rather than seasonal closures.
