Situated within the Vanian Green Village in Selwo, Estepona, this two-bedroom penthouse offers 104 square metres of living space on a single level. The property, constructed in 2018, is positioned on the second floor with an east to southeast orientation, providing exposure to morning sunlight. Located approximately 3 kilometres from the coastline and 1.7 kilometres from the nearest golf course, the residence presents a residential option in a development that includes communal facilities such as a swimming pool, gym, and cinema room.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The development is located in Selwo, a residential area on the western side of the Costa del Sol. The position places the property at an elevation of 80 metres above sea level, offering views towards the surrounding landscape and sea. The area is characterised by a mix of residential communities and golf courses, situated between the busier urban centres of Estepona and Marbella.
The layout includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, designed to accommodate smaller households or couples. The presence of a large, partially covered terrace extends the living space outdoors. Practical features such as a separate laundry room, underground garage space, and a private storage room address daily functional requirements for storage and vehicle accommodation.
Although the project data lists an indicative date of 1970, the specific property description confirms a construction year of 2018. This indicates a modern build standard complying with contemporary regulations. The property is currently in a completed state, meaning it is available for immediate occupancy without the lead times associated with off-plan construction.
The property is not located within immediate walking distance of the beach, requiring transport to reach the seaside. The surrounding area of Selwo is residential and semi-rural; it does not offer the walkable street life or high density of shops found in town centres. The elevation and hillside terrain may present challenges for those with limited mobility.

This property suits buyers seeking a turnkey residence that requires no renovation. It fits the profile of remote workers or retirees who require a dedicated office space or a second bedroom for guests. The combination of a lock-and-leave system and community security makes it applicable for those who use the property as a secondary holiday home. It is also suitable for couples who desire access to golf facilities and the coastal lifestyle without the maintenance responsibilities of a detached villa.
The interior finishes reflect the 2018 construction date, featuring a modern white aesthetic in the bathrooms and contemporary kitchen fittings. The property includes air conditioning with heating and double glazing, consistent with modern energy efficiency standards. The open-plan kitchen is equipped with integrated appliances. The flooring and carpentry appear in good condition based on the available visual documentation. The terrace areas feature tiled flooring suitable for outdoor exposure.
The asking price is set at €495,000. This positions the property at approximately €4,750 per square metre. The price includes modern furnishings, underground parking, and a storage room, which reduces the immediate need for additional investment in move-in costs. In the current resale market of the Estepona area, this price point reflects a modern property in a gated community rather than a luxury frontline beach residence.
Living in this penthouse involves a routine centred around the amenities of the Vanian Green Village. The east-facing orientation captures the morning light on the terrace, suitable for breakfast outdoors. The environment is quiet and gated, appealing to those who prefer a controlled community setting over a bustling urban street. Daily errands require planning, as the nearest supermarket is nearly 3 kilometres away, necessitating the use of a car for most shopping trips. The lifestyle here is defined by a balance between the privacy of the apartment and the use of shared leisure facilities like the pool and gym.
The infrastructure around Selwo relies heavily on private transport. The A-7 motorway is accessible, connecting the property to Marbella within 20 minutes by car and Estepona town centre in roughly 10 minutes. Public transport options exist, with 6 bus lines and 21 stops in the vicinity, but service frequency may vary. The immediate surroundings consist of other urbanisations and green zones, lacking the commercial density of a town centre.
The map displays the property's location inland from the N-340 coastal road. The topography shows the elevation above the coast, with the urbanisation clearly defined amidst the green zones of the Selwo area. The relative distances to the golf courses and the marina of Estepona are visible.

Compared to developments in central Estepona, this property offers a quieter environment and more modern specifications than older resale apartments in the town centre, but it requires a vehicle for daily errands. In contrast to properties in Nueva Andalucía or Marbella, the price per square metre is generally lower here, offering more space for the same budget. However, the immediate surroundings lack the pedestrian infrastructure and density of high-end restaurants found in the Golden Mile area. Projects in Torre del Mar or Mijas (comparables) are further east and have different climatic conditions and accessibility to Málaga city, whereas this location serves those focused on the western Costa del Sol.
