This renovated duplex apartment is located in the Conde de Ureña neighborhood of Málaga, a short walk from the historic center and the beaches. With 90 m² of living space and two bedrooms, the property offers urban living space. The home features a private solarium with views of the Alcazaba and comes fully furnished and equipped. With supermarkets, pharmacies, and public transport within walking distance, the project combines residential comfort with city dynamics.
Compared to projects in surrounding resort towns, Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) and Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720,000) typically offer more amenities like pools and gardens, but price per square meter is higher and car dependency is higher. Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000) is cheaper but further from a major city center. The value of this Málaga project lies in direct access to all urban amenities, work, and cultural offerings, without the price tags of the most exclusive coastal areas like El Limonar.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in an urban neighborhood (Conde de Ureña) bordering Málaga's historic center. The location is central enough to access all city facilities yet distant enough to avoid being overwhelmed by tourist traffic. The proximity to both the beach and the city center makes the location versatile.
The home is designed for occupancy by couples or small families. The presence of two separate full bathrooms increases comfort for residents or guests. The kitchen is fully fitted, allowing for immediate use without additional investment in appliances.
While the building is not new construction, it has been recently renovated and is in excellent condition. All technical installations, including air conditioning for heating and cooling, are up to date. The finishes, including PVC windows and vinyl flooring, are modern and low maintenance.
Access to the property is via a steep staircase on the third floor; there is no elevator. This makes the property less suitable for those with mobility restrictions. Being in an urban neighborhood, noise from the surroundings and neighbors may occur. There is no communal swimming pool.
This project fits buyers looking for a 'turn-key' home in a vibrant environment. It suits those who do not want to depend on a car for daily shopping. It is also an option for investors targeting long-term rentals for expats or professionals working in Málaga, due to proximity to amenities and transit. However, the physical nature of the stairs requires residents to be mobile.
The property has recently received modern finishes. The floors are vinyl, which is durable and low-maintenance. Interior carpentry is white lacquered wood, creating a spacious feel. Exterior windows are white PVC with tilt-and-turn features, ensuring good insulation and ventilation. Bathrooms include showers and windows for natural ventilation. Technical installations include air conditioning (hot and cold) and central heating, ensuring year-round comfort.
The asking price for this duplex apartment starts from €455,000. This represents the cost for a fully renovated home in central Málaga. Depending on negotiations and furniture packages, the final price may vary. Parking is available in the form of a garage, a significant asset in this busy city area.
Daily life in Conde de Ureña means living in the heart of active Málaga. In the mornings, you can walk to the local bakery or supermarket less than 150 meters away. For work or trips, the Atarazanas station is just 400 meters away, offering direct connections along the coast and to the rest of the city. Evenings can be spent on the private rooftop terrace, watching the sunset over the city with views of the historic Alcazaba. On warm days, Playa de la Malagueta beach is just 1.3 km away, reachable by a short walk or bike ride through the city. The neighborhood offers a mix of local residences and urban amenities.
The immediate environment is characterized by a high density of amenities. With 372 restaurants and 155 cafes within 2 km, there is an extensive choice of dining. For daily care, there are 104 pharmacies and 25 dentists nearby. The neighborhood is a mix of historic architecture and modern living following the renovation. The historic center is a 10-15 minute walk away, meaning culture, shopping, and entertainment are always close.
The map shows the central location of the project in Málaga Center, between the historic old town and the sea. Markers indicate distances to beaches, public transport, and the airport, highlighting the property's central position.
This project is located in the city of Málaga, the capital of the Costa del Sol. Compared to coastal towns like Mijas or Fuengirola, Málaga offers a much more urban lifestyle with direct access to international schools, large hospitals, and cultural sites like the Picasso Museum. The location is central for travel along the coast, with the A-7 and AP-7 motorways nearby.
Accessibility is one of the strongest points of this location. Málaga Airport is 9.6 km away, approximately a 15-minute drive. The nearest beach, Playa de la Malagueta, is 1.3 km away. For golfers, Club de Golf Málaga Parador is the closest course at 9.8 km. Public transport is excellent, with 50 bus lines and more than 50 stops nearby, and Atarazanas station just 400 meters away.
