This fully renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is located in Torreblanca, a residential district on the eastern edge of Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol. Built in 1984 and updated throughout, the 81 m² home is offered key-ready and fully furnished, with a fixed asking price of €350,000. The property forms part of a gated complex with a communal swimming pool, landscaped gardens, shared parking and a lift. The beach at Torreblanca-Carvajal lies roughly 0.9 km away as the crow flies, and the Carvajal train station is about 1.5 km from the complex.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Torreblanca sits between Fuengirola and Benalmádena, around 3 km from Fuengirola town centre and 24 km from Málaga in a straight line. The district combines residential urbanisations with direct access to the coastal railway line. Beaches, supermarkets and the Carvajal station are all within walking or short driving distance, which makes the location workable both with and without a car.
The apartment offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and 81 m² of living space, suitable for a couple, a small family or use as a second home. A private covered terrace, fitted wardrobes, a fully fitted kitchen and air conditioning cover the practical basics. The communal pool and garden provide outdoor space without private maintenance obligations.
This is an existing home completed in 1984, not a new-build project, and it has since been fully renovated. The construction status is key-ready, meaning the buyer can take occupancy directly after purchase. No delivery dates apply, as the property is finished; a notary transfer and any furnishing preferences are the only steps before moving in.
The apartment measures 81 m² and has urban and street views rather than sea views. Parking is shared within the complex, so no private garage space is included. There is no private garden or private pool; outdoor facilities are communal. The building dates from 1984, which means construction standards of that period apply despite the interior renovation.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a low-maintenance second home on the Costa del Sol will find the furnished, key-ready condition and communal facilities directly aligned with that use: arrival, unpacking, and occupancy within weeks of the notary visit. The two-bathroom configuration also suits families with children or couples who regularly host guests, avoiding the morning congestion of a single-bathroom apartment. Year-round residence is equally workable. The presence of a train station within 1.5 km, fifty bus stops in the area and a full range of daily amenities within 2 km reduces dependence on a car, relevant for retirees or anyone who prefers not to drive in Spain. Health coverage is available through three health centres in the area, and education options include 15 primary and 10 secondary schools. The property is less suitable for buyers who want sea views, a private pool or a private plot; those requirements point towards other segments of the market. Similarly, buyers seeking maximum interior space per euro may find larger properties further inland at comparable prices. What this apartment offers is a combination of coastal proximity, walkable amenities, rail access and a renovated interior, a profile that suits the practical buyer more than the space-driven one.
The apartment has been fully renovated, and the visible result is a modern interior in a building from 1984. The photographs show a white, contemporary finish: a living-dining room with clean lines, a bathroom with modern tiling and a washing machine connection, and a bright bedroom furnished with two single beds. The kitchen is fully fitted, which in practice means appliances and cabinetry are included in the purchase. Technical comfort is provided by air conditioning, relevant given summer temperatures in the region that average up to 26°C monthly. Fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms offer storage without taking up additional floor space, a meaningful detail in an 81 m² home. The covered terrace provides shade and extends the usable living area across seasons. Two structural points deserve attention. First, the building dates from 1984, so while the interior is renovated, the construction fabric, insulation standards and communal installations reflect that era; buyers with a technical surveyor should factor this into due diligence. Second, the finish level is modern and neutral but not luxury-grade, the specification is consistent with the renovated stock typical of Fuengirola rather than with high-end new construction. For the intended use as a residence or rental-ready second home, the current condition allows immediate occupancy without improvement works.
The apartment is offered at a fixed asking price of €350,000. As an existing, fully renovated and furnished home, this price covers a turnkey property: no works, furniture purchases or finishing costs are expected before occupancy. For context, comparable new-build projects in the wider region start lower, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, but those are off-plan or new-build units of a different nature. This property competes on immediacy: key-ready status, a coastal Fuengirola location and two full bathrooms within 81 m². Availability is immediate upon completion of the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around a compact, efficiently arranged interior paired with communal outdoor facilities. The 81 m² layout gives each bedroom its own access to a bathroom, which is relatively generous for this size class and works well for guests or a rental setting. The covered terrace extends the living space for most of the year, and the south-west orientation means afternoon and evening sun, relevant for anyone who values late-day outdoor seating. Mornings will be cooler on the terrace, which some residents prefer in summer. The gated complex with entry phone, lift and communal pool reduces the practical burden of ownership. There is no private pool to maintain and no private garden to keep; in exchange, the resident shares these facilities with neighbours, which is usual for this segment of the Fuengirola market. Shared parking is available but not assigned, so availability depends on occupancy at any given time. The surrounding district is residential with a tourist overlay. Within 2 km there are 62 restaurants, 21 cafés, 8 pharmacies and 7 banks, which means daily errands rarely require a car. The Carvajal train station at 1.5 km connects to Fuengirola and the line towards Málaga, and eight public transport lines with 50 stops serve the wider area. The beach at Torreblanca-Carvajal is under 1 km away in a straight line, in practice a walk of ten to fifteen minutes depending on the exact route and any elevation along the way, as the complex sits at approximately 76 m above sea level.
Torreblanca functions as a residential extension of Fuengirola, with the infrastructure of a small town rather than a secluded urbanisation. The immediate area supports full daily life: supermarkets, pharmacies and medical services within a short radius, 62 restaurants and 21 cafés within 2 km, and a bank branch presence of seven offices. The district has a permanent population, meaning it does not empty out outside the summer season, a common concern with more touristic enclaves along the coast. The train connection is a defining practical feature. Carvajal station, 1.5 km away in a straight line, links Torreblanca directly to Fuengirola centre (3.1 km) and to the commuter line towards Málaga and the airport. This gives residents a realistic car-free option for commuting or airport travel. Eight public transport lines and 50 stops reinforce this accessibility. The setting is urban: views from the apartment are over the street and surrounding buildings rather than open landscape. The complex sits at roughly 76 m elevation, which on this stretch of coast means a gentle to moderate slope between the urbanisation and the seafront, worth noting for anyone with mobility considerations or for the walk back from the beach in summer heat.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Torreblanca occupies a middle position on the western Costa del Sol: 24 km from Málaga and 26 km from Marbella, both in straight-line terms. This places the district closer to the airport than most Fuengirola and Marbella alternatives, while keeping the amenities of a full-sized town at hand. Within Fuengirola itself, Torreblanca is the quieter eastern residential flank, separated from the high-season intensity of the town centre but connected to it by train, bus and a short drive. The position suits buyers who want coastal living with metropolitan and airport access without paying central Marbella or Málaga prices.
The nearest beach, Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal, lies 0.9 km away as the crow flies, with Playa de Torreblanca at 1.6 km and Playa de los Boliches at 1.8 km. Fuengirola's marina, Puerto Deportivo, is 3.1 km in a direct line and serves as both a leisure destination and a departure point for coastal trips. Málaga, the regional capital with around 579,000 inhabitants, is 24 km away in a straight line; Marbella is 26 km. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 16 km as the crow flies, one of the shorter airport distances on this coast, typically under half an hour by car or reachable via the C-1 commuter line from Carvajal with a change at Fuengirola or along the route. Gibraltar Airport is roughly 81 km away. For sports and recreation, Karting Mijas is 1.0 km away, a tennis and country club at 1.6 km, and the Lew Hoad tennis and padel club at 1.8 km. An electric vehicle Supercharger in Fuengirola sits 1.9 km from the complex. Road distances will be longer than the straight-line figures given here.

The climate data for the area shows an average annual temperature of 17.9°C, with monthly averages ranging from 14°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. This is a typical Costa del Sol profile: warm, dry summers and mild winters, with the swimming season, when sea temperature reaches 20°C or more, lasting around four months. Residents should read that figure literally: sea swimming is comfortable roughly June through September, while pool use in a heated or sheltered communal setting can extend beyond it. The elevation of 76 m places the complex on the lower coastal shelf. This moderates summer heat slightly compared with higher inland towns and keeps winter mornings mild. The south-west orientation of the apartment aligns with the dominant afternoon sun, giving the terrace its warmest hours in the late afternoon and early evening. For viewpoints and walking routes, three miradores lie between 3.8 and 4.7 km away, offering inland vistas towards the hills behind the coast.

The Fuengirola coastline holds Blue Flag beaches, an indication of water quality and services, and Torreblanca's own beaches sit within easy reach of the apartment. Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal at 0.9 km is the closest option and functions as the everyday beach for the district; the broader stretch towards Los Boliches (1.8 km) offers a wider promenade with chiringuitos and facilities. Golf is a short drive rather than walkable: Campo Los Lagos at 5.3 km and Campo Los Olivos at 5.8 km are the nearest courses, both part of the Mijas golf offering, with a pitch-and-putt in Benalmádena at 6.0 km. For racket sports, the Lew Hoad Tennis and Padel Club at 1.8 km is notable, a long-established club that adds a social dimension for residents who play. A public swimming pool, Piscina María Peláez, is 2.5 km away for laps outside the beach season. The marina at Fuengirola (3.1 km) rounds off the recreational offer with waterfront dining and seasonal boat trips.

Within the regional context, this apartment competes with both existing renovated stock and new-build developments along the Costa del Sol. Comparable projects listed nearby include Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000). Those are new-build price lists, so the comparison is not direct: this property is a finished, furnished home with a fixed price of €350,000, whereas the alternatives involve off-plan purchase, construction timelines and fit-out costs on top of the base price. Set against that field, the apartment's position is defined by three factors. First, location maturity: Torreblanca is an established district with functioning infrastructure, trains, buses, schools, health centres, rather than a development area awaiting amenities. Second, immediacy: the buyer takes a habitable, furnished home with two bathrooms, which is uncommon at this size and typically commands a premium over unrenovated or unfurnished stock. Third, airport proximity: at roughly 16 km in a straight line from Malaga-Costa del Sol, the location is closer to the airport than Estepona or Torre del Mar, which matters for second-home buyers making frequent short trips. The trade-offs are equally clear. New-build buyers receive current construction standards, warranties and often a private terrace or parking space; here the building fabric dates from 1984, parking is shared, and views are urban rather than maritime. Buyers weighing this apartment against the Mijas or Estepona alternatives are effectively choosing between turnkey coastal convenience and new-build specification at a similar total outlay. The Fuengirola market itself records around 2,391 housing transactions per year, indicating an active resale market, relevant for anyone considering future liquidity.
