This completed three-bedroom apartment occupies a prominent position in La Quinta, Málaga, offering panoramic views of the surrounding area. The property features a spacious 188m² living area with two bathrooms and has been designed to take full advantage of its south-facing orientation. Situated in an urban environment with excellent proximity to both daily necessities and leisure facilities, the apartment represents a completed residential opportunity in an established location with walking distance access to beaches and essential services.
When compared to similar properties in the region, this apartment in La Quinta commands a premium price point relative to developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000). This price differential reflects several key distinctions: the property's completed status versus new builds under construction; its established urban location versus developing areas; and its specification level including premium finishes and extensive communal facilities. The location balances between Málaga's urban environment and Marbella's more exclusive coastal atmosphere, potentially offering broader appeal than properties positioned further from major infrastructure. While developments in Torre del Mar or Estepona may offer newer construction phases, this property's completion in 2020 ensures immediate availability without construction delays or uncertainties. The combination of urban accessibility, beach proximity, and quality specifications creates a distinctive position in the market, particularly for buyers seeking a move-in ready property without waiting for development completion. The area's median income of €15,750 suggests the property targets the upper segment of the local market alongside international buyers. This differs from some newer developments that may target lower entry price points to attract broader markets. The property's position within an established urban environment with 3,916 real estate transactions in the area indicates active market movement but with more mature pricing than developing areas experiencing rapid appreciation.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment is positioned within an established urban environment, characterised by its proximity to essential amenities and recreational facilities. Multiple beaches are accessible within 1.3-2.9km, while Málaga city centre and international airports are within practical distances. The location balances urban convenience with coastal accessibility, positioned at 23m above sea level with minimal slope towards the coastline.
The property accommodates functional living requirements with three bedrooms and two bathrooms across 188m² of living space. The south-facing orientation maximises natural light throughout the day, while the inclusion of storage facilities and a utility room addresses practical storage requirements. The apartment's proximity to supermarkets, pharmacies, and healthcare facilities supports daily living needs within walking distance.
The building reached completion in 2020, with all construction works finished according to original specifications. As a completed development, the property requires no further construction planning or waiting periods for completion. The established nature of the building means all communal facilities are fully operational and maintenance schedules are already implemented within the community management structure.
The property does not offer private garden space beyond the terrace area. There is no private swimming pool included with the apartment. The location, while offering urban convenience, does not provide the seclusion of rural properties. The price point positions it above entry-level properties in the broader Málaga region. There are no on-site commercial facilities within the development.
This property suits buyers seeking a move-in ready luxury apartment in an established location with immediate access to both urban amenities and coastal attractions. It particularly accommodates international buyers looking for a second home in a Mediterranean setting where they can settle immediately without waiting for construction completion or renovation works. The three-bedroom configuration makes it suitable for families or those regularly hosting guests, while the proximity to numerous beaches appeals to those prioritising coastal living. The location also benefits professionals working in Málaga who prefer to live outside the city centre yet require reasonable access to business districts. With the airport just 6.2km away, the property serves well those needing frequent international travel connections. For those prioritising health and wellness, the inclusion of gym facilities within the development and proximity to numerous sporting venues (tennis, football, golf courses within 6-9km) provide regular recreational opportunities. Buyers seeking a property requiring minimal maintenance will appreciate the completed status and management of communal areas. The apartment's urban location with its surrounding infrastructure makes it less suitable for those seeking absolute tranquillity or rural isolation.
The apartment features high-quality specifications throughout, beginning with premium porcelain flooring that provides both durability and aesthetic appeal. The modern kitchen comes fully equipped with wood cabinetry and includes an island with bar stool seating, designed for both functionality and social interaction. Bathroom fittings include double sink arrangements and glass shower enclosures, reflecting contemporary design principles while ensuring practical usability. Technical installations incorporate underfloor heating for efficient temperature control during cooler months, supplemented by air conditioning systems for summer comfort. Double glazing has been installed throughout to enhance thermal insulation and reduce external noise. The property includes a home automation system allowing centralised control of various functions, while security is addressed through a video intercom system. Living spaces feature floor-to-ceiling windows that maximise natural light and take advantage of the panoramic views. Motorised blinds and curtains provide adjustable shading solutions, complemented by integrated awnings for terrace areas. These technical elements are designed to operate seamlessly while maintaining the property's aesthetic coherence. The apartment is delivered fully furnished, eliminating the need for additional expenditure while ensuring design consistency throughout the living spaces.
Priced at €1,200,000, this apartment sits within the premium segment of the Málaga property market. The price reflects the combination of completed status, 188m² of living space, three-bedroom configuration, and inclusion of quality finishes and communal facilities. When compared to similar developments in the region, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950) or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000), this property commands a higher price point, likely due to its established location and premium specifications. The property represents a significant but not exceptional investment within the Costa del Sol luxury apartment market.

The property benefits from a Mediterranean climate with an average annual temperature of 18.5°C, supporting year-round comfort without extreme temperature variations.

This allows for extended periods of coastal swimming and water activities.
