This key-ready townhouse is located in the centre of Cancelada, a village in the Estepona municipality on the western Costa del Sol. The property was completed in 2024 and offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, 118 m² of living space spread over three floors, and a solarium terrace. A supermarket, pharmacy and several restaurants are within walking distance, and the nearest beach lies roughly 900 metres away as the crow flies. An underground parking space and a storage room are included in the asking price of €450,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in a quiet street in the centre of Cancelada, an urban setting where daily amenities are reachable on foot. A supermarket sits 79 metres from the door and a pharmacy 131 metres. Three beaches lie between roughly 0.9 and 1.1 kilometres away as the crow flies, and several golf courses are within two kilometres of the village.
The layout suits households needing three bedrooms across three levels: a ground floor with kitchen, living room and guest WC, a first floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom, and a top floor with the third bedroom, a bathroom and a solarium. Air conditioning, double glazing, fitted wardrobes and WiFi are installed. Outdoor space consists of a patio for dining and the roof terrace.
Construction was completed in 2024 and the property is key-ready, meaning no waiting period or construction risk applies. The condition is listed as new construction with a resale category, so the transfer follows the standard process for an existing home. The delivery date is indicative and buyers should verify completion documentation with the vendor.
The property is sold unfurnished and offers views over the courtyard rather than open sea or mountain panoramas. The west orientation means the outdoor spaces receive afternoon and evening sun. There is no private garden or swimming pool; sports facilities such as pools and padel courts are available nearby through paid memberships, including at Free Wave.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a low-maintenance second home will find a finished, unfurnished house where only furniture and personal touches remain to be arranged, with beaches and restaurants within walking distance and no construction uncertainty. Households relocating permanently benefit from the walkable village amenities, the proximity of primary and secondary schools in the wider area, nineteen and ten respectively in the region, and the presence of two health centres plus a hospital 2.9 kilometres away. Buyers who prioritise private outdoor space for afternoon sun may value the west-facing solarium, particularly those whose leisure time concentrates in evenings and weekends. The vertical layout over three floors suits buyers comfortable with stairs; those needing single-level living would need to consider this carefully. The absence of a private pool is a relevant factor for families with young children, although the Free Wave membership option provides an alternative at additional cost. Finally, buyers who want to compare against golf-oriented developments should note that three courses lie within two kilometres, including El Coto de la Serena and Flamingos Golf, making the location practical for regular play without living inside a resort community. The property is less suited to buyers wanting sea views, furnished handover or a large private garden.
The house was completed in 2024 and is listed in excellent condition with new-build construction standards. The kitchen is fully fitted, so appliances and cabinetry are in place at handover. Each bedroom includes fitted wardrobes, which reduces immediate furnishing costs. Windows are double glazed, contributing to thermal comfort and noise reduction in the village-centre setting. Climate control consists of air conditioning, covering both cooling in summer and supplementary heating in cooler months, when average temperatures drop to around 12°C. The bathrooms, as shown in the photographic material, are finished in a modern style with walk-in showers, wall-hung sanitary ware and contemporary tiling. The ground floor combines a modern kitchen, stairs and sliding-door access to the patio, indicating a layout oriented toward indoor-outdoor use. Connectivity is prepared with WiFi infrastructure. Utilities comprise electricity and drinkable water, both connected to the municipal network. Practical storage is addressed twice: the separate storage room in the basement complements the fitted wardrobes, and the underground parking space protects the vehicle from sun exposure. The finishes are those of a contemporary Spanish developer build rather than a bespoke specification; buyers expecting premium materials such as natural stone worktops or underfloor heating should verify the exact inventory during a viewing. Overall, the technical package, double glazing, air conditioning, fitted kitchen and wardrobes, matches what is customary for this segment of the western Costa del Sol market.
The asking price is fixed at €450,000 for this completed townhouse, including the underground parking space and storage room. As an existing home rather than a new-build development with a price list, there is no range of unit types or prices; the property is a single, finished residence. Buyers comparing against new-build projects in the region should note that quoted figures there typically start lower but exclude extras such as parking, storage or fit-out, which here are already part of the package. The 2024 completion date means the buyer takes ownership of a recently finished structure without phased payment obligations during construction.
Daily life in this townhouse revolves around the village setting. Cancelada functions as a small, walkable community: the supermarket is effectively around the corner at 79 metres, the pharmacy 131 metres, and within two kilometres there are sixteen restaurants, two cafés, a bank and a park. This density means most errands can be done on foot or by bicycle, which reduces dependence on a car for ordinary routines. The house itself is arranged vertically over three floors. The entrance hall with guest WC, the fitted kitchen and the living room sit on the ground floor, with direct access to a patio used for outdoor dining. The first floor carries two bedrooms and the main bathroom, while the top floor holds the third bedroom, a second bathroom and the solarium terrace, which catches the western afternoon and evening light. The west orientation makes the upper terrace a practical spot for late-day sun, though mornings on the patio will be shadier. An underground parking space and a separate storage room are included, which matters in a village centre where on-street parking can be limited in summer. For sport and leisure, the Free Wave facility near the village offers paid memberships covering a swimming pool, open-air gym and padel and tennis courts, providing pool access even though the property itself has none. The beaches at Villacana and Guadalmansa are about a kilometre away as the crow flies, close enough for an evening walk or a morning swim during the six-month season when sea temperatures exceed 20°C.
Cancelada sits between Estepona and Marbella on the western Costa del Sol, at 31 metres above sea level on largely flat terrain; the gradient to the beach is approximately 2.8%, meaning walks to the coast involve no significant climb. The village setting is urban with amenities at walking distance, which shapes the rhythm of daily life: groceries, pharmacy visits and meals out do not require a car. Within two kilometres, the area offers sixteen restaurants, two cafés, a bank and a park, alongside four pharmacies. Healthcare coverage includes two health centres in the area and a hospital 2.9 kilometres away. For electric-vehicle owners, a charging point sits 821 metres from the property, with a Tesla Supercharger in Estepona roughly 800 metres further. Public transport consists of four lines serving 21 stops, giving car-free access along the coast, though frequency is typical for a village of this size and most residents keep a vehicle for longer trips. The climate supports outdoor living for most of the year, with monthly average temperatures ranging from 12°C in winter to 28°C in summer and an annual average of 19.3°C. The tourist presence, 24 hotels and nearly 7,000 beds in the surrounding area, means the locality is busier in summer and quieter outside the season, a pattern relevant for buyers sensitive to seasonal variation.
The map shows the property's position in the centre of Cancelada, close to the A-7 coast road, with beaches about a kilometre to the south and the golf courses of the Estepona corridor immediately to the north and east. Marbella and Estepona frame the location on either side, illustrating its central position on the western Costa del Sol.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Cancelada belongs to the municipality of Estepona and occupies a middle position on the western Costa del Sol, 16 kilometres from Marbella and within reach of both Estepona town and the New Golden Mile. The location combines village-scale living with proximity to the golf corridor between Estepona and Marbella. Málaga city and its airport lie 55 to 63 kilometres to the east, while Gibraltar is roughly 44 kilometres to the west, giving the property reasonable access to two airports. The regional housing market records around 3,163 transactions per year, indicating an active but not overheated market.
The nearest beach, Playa del Sol Villacana, lies 0.9 kilometres away as the crow flies, with Playa de Guadalmansa at roughly one kilometre and Playa del Saladillo at 1.1 kilometres; actual walking or driving distances are somewhat longer. Golf is a defining feature of the surroundings: Club de Golf El Coto de la Serena is 1.4 kilometres away, Flamingos Golf 1.5 kilometres and Tramores Golf 2.0 kilometres. Sports facilities include the Racket Club Villa Paderna at 0.7 kilometres, a tennis club at 1.4 kilometres and the RozaRossa tennis and padel club at 2.2 kilometres. Marbella lies 16 kilometres away in a straight line, with Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 9.5 kilometres. Two airports serve the area: Gibraltar at roughly 44 kilometres and Málaga-Costa del Sol at about 55 kilometres as the crow flies, though the driving distance to Málaga along the A-7/AP-7 corridor is considerably longer. The International School of Estepona sits 2.3 kilometres away. A car remains the practical choice for regional trips, while village-level errands are walkable.

The location sits at 31 metres elevation on flat coastal terrain, with a 2.8% gradient to the sea, so the environment is one of low-lying coastal plain rather than hillsides. The climate is Mediterranean with an annual average temperature of 19.3°C and monthly averages between 12°C in the coolest months and 28°C in summer, conditions that allow terrace and outdoor use for most of the year. The swimming season extends to six months, during which sea temperatures hold at or above 20°C, roughly May through October. Rainfall is concentrated in the cooler half of the year, keeping summers dry. The solarium terrace on the third floor, with its western orientation, captures afternoon and evening sun, which suits outdoor dining and late-day relaxation; morning users will find the patio on the ground floor correspondingly cooler. The photographic material shows mountain views from the terrace, a reminder that the Sierra Bermeja range rises behind the coastal strip and is visible from upper levels on clear days.

Three beaches sit within about a kilometre as the crow flies: Playa del Sol Villacana at 0.9 kilometres, Playa de Guadalmansa at 1.0 kilometre and Playa del Saladillo at 1.1 kilometres. These are the sandy stretches typical of the Estepona coast, backed by low-rise urbanisations rather than high-rise resort blocks. The six-month swimming season, with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, supports beach use from late spring into autumn. Recreational infrastructure within two kilometres is dominated by racket and golf sports: the Racket Club Villa Paderna at 0.7 kilometres, a tennis club at 1.4 kilometres, RozaRossa tennis and padel at 2.2 kilometres, and three golf courses, El Coto de la Serena, Flamingos Golf and Tramores Golf, between 1.4 and 2.0 kilometres. A public swimming pool at Parque Antena lies 1.1 kilometres away, and the Free Wave facility in the village offers membership access to a pool, open-air gym and padel and tennis courts. Puerto Deportivo José Banús, at 9.5 kilometres, provides marina-based leisure and dining.

Compared with active new-build developments on the coast, this townhouse occupies a different position in the market. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000. Those from-prices typically apply to base units in larger residential schemes, where parking, storage, fit-out and delivery timing can add substantially to the final cost, and where completion may lie one or more years ahead. This property, at €450,000, is a finished 2024 townhouse with parking and storage included and no waiting period, which partially explains the gap in headline pricing. Locationally, Torre del Mar and Mijas sit respectively east of Málaga and in the central Costa del Sol, both further from the western golf corridor that surrounds Cancelada. Etherna Homes 2, being in Estepona municipality, is the closest comparable, though it forms part of a larger development rather than a village-centre setting. Cancelada's specific combination, walkable village amenities, three golf courses within two kilometres and beaches within a kilometre, is relatively uncommon in this price segment, where most alternatives are either apartment-based or situated in urbanisations that require a car for daily errands. The wider regional context supports liquidity: roughly 3,163 housing transactions per year are recorded locally, Marbella lies 16 kilometres away and both Gibraltar and Málaga airports are within about 55 kilometres as the crow flies. Buyers weighing this property against cheaper new-build options should compare total cost of ownership, including community fees at developments, against the included parking and immediate availability here.
