This 87 m² apartment is situated in the coastal district of Torrequebrada in Benalmádena, roughly 200 metres as the crow flies from Playa de la Yuca. Completed in 2002, the property offers two double bedrooms, one bathroom, a private south-facing terrace with sea views and a garage space. The residence forms part of a complex with communal green areas, a swimming pool and a children's play area. The asking price is fixed at €289,000, with agency fees included. Málaga airport lies approximately 11 km away in a straight line, and a local train station is 1.6 km from the door.
Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this apartment occupies the resale segment rather than the new-build segment, which changes the nature of the comparison. Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000) are all new construction with prices per unit starting at those levels, whereas €289,000 is the fixed total price for this completed, furnished home. The trade-off is straightforward. New-build buyers receive modern specifications, current building regulations and often communal facilities in fresher condition, but they wait for completion and typically pay extras for garages, storage and furnishings. Resale buyers of this apartment take possession of a furnished property with garage, storage, central heating and a fitted kitchen included, in a building from 2002 whose condition is described as good but whose installations should be inspected in the usual manner. Locationally, Torrequebrada sits between Fuengirola and Málaga city, 19 km from the capital and 31 km from Marbella, more central than Torre del Mar in the east and less remote than Estepona in the west. The beach distance of 0.2 km is a concrete advantage over many inland new-build developments that trade sea proximity for lower entry prices, as is the case at Lantana Residencial in Mijas. Around 2,070 housing transactions per year are recorded locally, indicating an active, liquid market for later resale. Buyers comparing options should weigh immediate availability and coastal position against the newer specifications of off-plan alternatives.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Torrequebrada is a residential coastal area within Benalmádena, positioned between the beach and the hills at an elevation of about 26 metres. Playa de la Yuca is 0.2 km away as the crow flies, reached via a moderate 5.5% gradient. The Cercanías station of Torremuelle sits 1.6 km away, connecting the area to Málaga and Fuengirola. Everyday amenities, restaurants, pharmacies, schools and banks, are all within a two-kilometre radius.
The apartment measures 87 m² and contains two double bedrooms plus one bathroom, supplemented by an additional space that could serve as a single bedroom. A private south-facing terrace and sea views support outdoor living, while central heating, a lift, a garage space and a storage room cover practical year-round needs. The property is sold fully furnished with a fitted kitchen and wood flooring, allowing immediate occupation after purchase.
This is not a new-build project but an existing home completed in 2002 and described as being in good, key-ready condition. There is no construction phase or delivery waiting period: the buyer can take possession shortly after completion of the standard purchase process. All dates and information provided are indicative and should be verified with the selling agency before any commitment.
The property has one bathroom only, which may limit suitability for larger households. It is an apartment within a communal complex, so there is no private garden or private pool. The stated surface of 87 m² is the constructed area. Agency fees are included in the price, but notary costs, registration, the Property Transfer Tax (ITP) and other purchase expenses are not. Community fees and annual taxes are not stated in the available data.
This property fits a buyer who wants an occupied, furnished home near the coast without a construction waiting period. Because it is sold fully furnished with a fitted kitchen, central heating and a garage space, it can function as a second home from the first week of ownership, a practical consideration for buyers who use the property seasonally. The two double bedrooms plus one bathroom layout, together with an additional space convertible into a single bedroom, suits couples, small families or owners who regularly host guests. Households needing two or more bathrooms will find the single bathroom a structural limitation. The location near the beach, hotels and transport makes the apartment relevant for rental use. The area records 24 hotels and over 11,000 tourist beds, indicating steady seasonal demand. Buyers considering year-round residence benefit from central heating, the lift and the proximity of health centres, schools and supermarkets. It is less suited to buyers seeking a private garden, a private pool or a detached villa format; the communal pool and green areas are shared facilities. The moderate 5.5% gradient to the beach is worth noting for anyone with reduced mobility.
The building dates from 2002, placing it in the generation of coastal constructions with concrete structures, terraced orientations and communal facilities. The apartment is described as being in good condition with wood flooring throughout the living areas, a fully fitted kitchen and complete furnishing included in the sale, a practical point, as the buyer does not need to budget for immediate interior works. Climate control consists of central heating, which is relevant for winter use on the Costa del Sol, where evenings between November and March can be cool. There is no mention of air conditioning in the available data; buyers who want cooling in summer should verify what is installed. South-facing orientation does part of the work naturally, warming the living areas in winter. The technical inventory further lists a lift, a private terrace, a storage room, a garage space, drinkable water and a telephone connection. As with any resale property of this age, a technical inspection is advisable to assess the state of installations, windows and the roof-adjacent elements. The information provided by the seller is for guidance purposes and may have changed; verification with the agency is recommended before any contractual step.
The asking price is €289,000 and is a fixed price for this existing home, not a starting price. Agency fees are included in this amount, so no separate broker commission is payable by the buyer. Not included are notary fees, land registry costs, the Property Transfer Tax (ITP) and other expenses inherent to the transaction. For context within the region: new-build projects such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar start at €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas at €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona at €321,000. Those figures concern new construction with delivery dates still ahead, whereas this property is completed and immediately available. Around 2,070 housing transactions are recorded per year in the local market. Availability and current details should be confirmed with the selling party.
Daily life in this corner of Torrequebrada revolves around the short walk to the sea. Playa de la Yuca lies 0.2 km away in a direct line, with Playa Benalnatura and Playa Las Viborillas slightly further along the coast, giving residents a choice of beaches within easy reach. The building itself has an unusual layout: street-level access on one side, while the opposite side sits at the equivalent height of a fourth floor, which produces open views and a degree of privacy unusual for an apartment of this size. The morning rhythm here is shaped by the south-facing orientation. Sunlight reaches the private terrace and living areas through the middle of the day, making the terrace a natural extension of the living room for much of the year. With an average annual temperature of 18.6°C, terrace use is not confined to summer months. Practical errands are concentrated within two kilometres: 47 restaurants, 7 pharmacies, 4 schools, 2 banks and 10 cafés are recorded in that radius, alongside supermarkets, a gym and English-language schools mentioned in the listing. For larger trips, Benalmádena, Arroyo de la Miel station is 2.2 km away, with trains along the coast towards Fuengirola and Málaga. A car is useful but not strictly necessary; six public transport lines with 50 stops serve the wider area.
The immediate environment combines residential calm with tourist infrastructure. Within a two-kilometre radius, the recorded amenities include 47 restaurants, 10 cafés, 7 pharmacies, 4 schools and 2 banks, which means most daily needs are covered on foot or by a short drive. Two health centres serve the wider area, and a hospital is recorded within the two-kilometre zone. Education options in the district total 13 primary schools and 11 secondary schools, with English-language schools mentioned in the listing, a factor for families considering a permanent move. Transport is a strong feature. Torremuelle train station is 1.6 km away as the crow flies, and Benalmádena, Arroyo de la Miel station 2.2 km; the Cercanías line connects to Fuengirola in one direction and Málaga city and airport in the other. Six public transport lines with 50 stops serve the area. By car, the coastal A-7 and toll road AP-7 provide access along the coast. Málaga airport lies approximately 11 km away in a straight line.
The map shows the apartment's position in Torrequebrada relative to the beaches within 0.6 km, the train stations at Torremuelle (1.6 km) and Arroyo de la Miel (2.2 km), and the access roads towards Málaga airport (approx. 11 km). All distances are straight-line measurements.

Torrequebrada occupies a position on the central Costa del Sol, 19 km as the crow flies from Málaga and 31 km from Marbella. This places the property between the provincial capital with its airport and cultural offering, and the western stretch of the coast towards Marbella and Estepona. Benalmádena itself combines a permanent residential population with substantial tourism, reflected in the 24 hotels and 11,154 beds recorded in the area. For regional orientation, Algeciras lies 95 km to the south-west. The result is a location that functions both as a year-round base and as a seasonal destination.
The nearest beach, Playa de la Yuca, is 0.2 km away in a direct line, with two further beaches within 0.6 km. The gradient from the property to the coast is a moderate 5.5%, meaning the return walk involves a noticeable but manageable climb. In straight-line distances, Málaga city lies 19 km away and Marbella 31 km, positioning the apartment centrally on the Costa del Sol. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is roughly 11 km away, making short flights practical; Gibraltar airport is about 86 km away.

The climate data points to a typical Mediterranean coastal profile: an average annual temperature of 18.6°C at an elevation of 26 metres above sea level. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or more, lasts about four months, roughly June through September, which frames how the beaches and the communal pool are used. Winters remain mild enough for outdoor life, with central heating covering the cooler evenings. The nearby Mirador del Madroño viewpoint, 4.9 km away, indicates the hilly green hinterland behind the coast, where walking routes begin within a short drive. The situation between sea and hills also explains the view aspect of the apartment: elevation on one side of the building opens the sightline towards the Mediterranean. Rainfall concentrates in the winter half-year; summers are dry and sunny, in line with the general Costa del Sol pattern.

Three beaches lie within 0.6 km of the property: Playa de la Yuca at 0.2 km, Playa Benalnatura at 0.5 km and Playa Las Viborillas at 0.6 km, all straight-line figures. This density of coves and beaches within walking distance is a defining feature of the location for daily use rather than occasional visits. Sport facilities nearby include Club de Raqueta at 1.6 km, Club Municipal de Hielo (an ice rink) at 2.3 km and Club Hockey Benalmádena at 2.9 km, covering racket sports, skating and team sports. Golfers can use the Pitch & Putt course 2.3 km away or play full rounds at the Miguel Ángel Jiménez course (7.7 km) and Lauro Golf (10.5 km). For maritime recreation, Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola, 7.6 km away, offers mooring facilities and waterfront dining. The communal pool and children's play area within the residential complex provide low-threshold options on days when the beach is not on the programme.
