A fully renovated 130 m² apartment on Calle Parras, in the La Goleta, San Felipe Neri area of central Málaga, next to the Historic Centre. The property has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an open-plan living space with a fitted kitchen, and is sold fully furnished with a fixed asking price of €635,000. The building dates from 1990 and has a lift. The location places Málaga's cultural and culinary centre within walking distance, with beaches roughly 2.3 kilometres away as the crow flies. East-facing orientation, air conditioning, electric heating and accessibility adaptations are included.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in a dense urban neighbourhood immediately west of Málaga's Historic Centre. Streets such as Calle Carretería, Calle Larios and Plaza de la Merced are within short walking distance. Daily amenities are concentrated nearby: the area within two kilometres counts around 298 restaurants, 71 pharmacies and 70 banks. The nearest beach, Playa de la Malagueta, lies 2.3 kilometres away in a direct line.
The layout combines an open-plan living room, dining area and kitchen with an island, two large windows and indirect lighting. Three bedrooms include a master with a double bed and two single rooms, all with built-in wardrobes. There are two full bathrooms, a private terrace and a balcony with a view. Wood flooring and a fully fitted kitchen are in place, and the property is sold furnished and move-in ready.
This is not a new-build project but an existing home completed in 1990 and fully renovated more recently, with the renovation work finished in September 2026 on an indicative basis. The apartment is key-ready and can be occupied immediately after purchase. No construction phase or delivery schedule applies, which removes the usual waiting period and phased payment structure associated with off-plan purchases.
The building dates from 1990, so the structure predates current new-build standards; no parking space, storage room, communal pool or garden is listed in the available data. The energy certificate rates the home at D, with consumption of 100 kWh/m² per year. Orientation is east-facing, meaning direct sunlight is concentrated in the morning hours. No information is available on community facilities or communal fees.

This property fits buyers who want city living in Málaga rather than a coastal resort or a gated urbanisation. It suits permanent residents who work in or near the city, since the location removes commuting by car and supports a walkable routine. It also matches those seeking a lock-and-leave second home: a furnished, key-ready apartment that can be used immediately and left unoccupied without maintenance concerns associated with gardens or pools. The three-bedroom layout works for families with one or two children, or for households that regularly host guests. The accessibility adaptations and the building's lift make it a realistic option for older buyers or anyone with reduced mobility who wants to avoid stairs and single-level limitations. It is less obvious a match for buyers who prioritise sea views, a private pool, on-site parking or a quiet residential street; those needs are better served elsewhere on the coast. Buyers focused on energy performance should also weigh the D rating against newer construction. Finally, the property can serve as a rental investment given central Málaga's year-round demand, subject to local licensing rules, though investors should verify current regulations on tourist lets in the city centre.
The renovation is described as complete and brand-new, with work finished in September 2026 on an indicative basis. The interior follows a contemporary design in neutral tones, with indirect ceiling and wall lighting throughout the living area and a kitchen island as the central element of the open plan. Wood flooring is listed among the features, alongside a fully fitted kitchen delivered in working order. The two bathrooms are finished to a modern standard, one of them notably spacious, with a walk-in shower visible in the interior photography. All three bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, and the master is furnished with a double bed. The apartment is sold fully furnished with high-end brands, which reduces initial set-up costs and allows immediate occupation. Technical installations include air conditioning and electric heating, providing climate control for both summer and the cooler winter months. On paper, the energy performance certificate rates the home at D, corresponding to a consumption of 100 kWh/m² per year, a middle-of-the-range figure that reflects the building's 1990 origin even after renovation. Two large windows and the east orientation determine the natural light profile: bright mornings, with indirect light later in the day. The terrace and balcony add outdoor surfaces that are usable for most of the year given the regional climate.
The asking price is fixed at €635,000 for the property as a whole, including furniture and the completed renovation. There is no price list or unit variation, as this is a single existing home rather than a development with multiple properties. On a price-per-square-metre basis, the asking price equates to roughly €4,880 per m² of built area (110 m² usable within the 130 m² total). Buyers comparing against new-build alternatives should note that comparable new projects elsewhere on the coast, Torre del Mar, Mijas and Estepona, advertise from prices between €205,000 and €321,950, though those are smaller units in different locations with later delivery dates. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status.
Daily life here is urban and pedestrian-oriented. The front door opens onto a central Málaga street rather than a resort or residential estate, which means groceries, pharmacies, cafés and shops are encountered on foot rather than reached by car. The living space is organised around a single open-plan area where cooking, dining and living flow together, a layout suited to households that spend time together in one shared space rather than in separate rooms. Morning light enters through two large east-facing windows, and the terrace and balcony extend the living area outdoors. The neighbourhood remains active year-round; it is not a seasonal zone that empties outside the summer months. With the Cervantes Theatre, Plaza de la Merced and Calle Larios all within a short walk, cultural and culinary outings do not require planning or driving. For exercise, the Forus Trinidad sports centre is 0.7 kilometres away and the Malaka football pitch 0.8 kilometres, both measured in a straight line. The building's lift and the apartment's accessibility adaptations make the third-floor location practical for residents with reduced mobility. A car is not essential for daily living, although parking in central Málaga typically requires a permit or paid facility, no private space is included with this property.
The surrounding neighbourhood functions as an extension of Málaga's Historic Centre. Within a two-kilometre radius, the data lists 298 restaurants, 70 cafés, 71 pharmacies, 70 banks, 22 dentists and 11 schools, a density that indicates a fully established urban district rather than a developing area. Public transport is extensive by local standards: 22 lines serve the area with 50 stops, and two train stations are recorded nearby, Córdoba Julio Anguita at 0.8 kilometres and El Higuerón at 6.2 kilometres, both in a direct line. For electric vehicle owners, three Iberdrola charging points sit within 0.6 kilometres. Sports facilities cluster close by: the Forus Trinidad centre at 0.7 kilometres, the Malaka football pitch at 0.8 kilometres and Club Deportivo La Unidad at 1.0 kilometre. The marina IGY Málaga Marina is 2.0 kilometres away and Marina Real Club Mediterráneo 2.7 kilometres. The streets themselves are those of a working Andalusian city, busy during the day, quieter at night, and busiest during festival periods such as the Feria and Holy Week processions, when central Málaga draws large crowds.
The map shows the apartment's position just west of Málaga's Historic Centre, with the coastline about 2.3 kilometres to the south-east as the crow flies. Note that all distances shown are straight-line measurements; actual road distances are somewhat longer.

Within the Costa del Sol as a whole, this property represents the urban end of the market. Instead of a coastal resort between Marbella and Estepona, it sits inside Málaga city itself, the region's capital, transport hub and cultural centre. That position trades sea views and resort facilities for walkability, year-round activity and direct access to theatres, museums and restaurants. Granada and Sevilla remain within a comfortable radius of roughly 120–130 kilometres straight-line for weekend travel, while the city's own airport connects the region internationally.
Beaches are the closest coastal amenity: Playa de la Malagueta lies 2.3 kilometres away, Playa de San Andrés 2.5 kilometres and Playa de la Misericordia 3.7 kilometres, all measured as the crow flies, so the walking or driving distance is somewhat longer. Golf requires a car: Club de Golf Málaga Parador is 8.5 kilometres away, Club de Golf de Guadalhorce 8.8 kilometres and the Miguel Ángel Jiménez course 11.3 kilometres. Within the region, Córdoba is recorded at 1 kilometre straight-line from the reference point in the dataset, Sevilla at 119 kilometres and Granada at 131 kilometres, making both of the latter realistic day trips by car or train. The apartment's central position means daily errands are done on foot, and the public transport network of 22 lines covers the wider city. A car is useful for beach days, golf and regional travel but is not required for daily life; buyers should account for paid or permit-based parking in the city centre, as no private space is included.

The location sits at 128 metres above sea level with an average annual temperature of 18.8°C, mild winters and warm summers typical of the Málaga coastline. The swimming season extends to roughly six months per year, with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, meaning beach use is concentrated between late spring and early autumn rather than year-round. The east-facing orientation of the apartment aligns well with this climate: morning sun warms the living space, while the hottest afternoon hours arrive with indirect light, reducing heat build-up. Air conditioning and electric heating cover both ends of the temperature range. As an urban location, immediate access to nature is limited; green spaces and hiking terrain lie outside the city. The climate does, however, support year-round use of the terrace and balcony, and the walkable city centre encourages outdoor living through most months, the 32 local public holidays per year reflect an annual calendar heavy on street-based festivals and processions.

Three beaches sit within roughly four kilometres: Playa de la Malagueta at 2.3 kilometres is the city's best-known urban beach, backed by the promenade and chiringuitos; Playa de San Andrés at 2.5 kilometres is a wide, quieter stretch west of the port; and Playa de la Misericordia at 3.7 kilometres is popular with locals and known for its long seafront esplanade. All distances are straight-line, so actual travel is slightly longer. Recreational sailing and boat facilities are found at IGY Málaga Marina (2.0 kilometres) and Marina Real Club Mediterráneo (2.7 kilometres), with the smaller Puerto Deportivo del Candado further east at 8.0 kilometres. Golfers have three courses within about 11 kilometres, the nearest being Club de Golf Málaga Parador. For everyday sport, the Forus Trinidad centre and the Malaka football pitch are both under one kilometre away. Culturally, the Cervantes Theatre, the Picasso connections of the historic quarter and Calle Larios provide recreation that does not depend on the season.

This apartment occupies a different segment of the market from the typical Costa del Sol new-build offering. The three comparable projects in the wider region, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,950), all advertise from prices for new construction in coastal towns east and west of Málaga. Those projects sell modern buildings, communal pools, parking and often sea-facing orientations, but at locations that depend on a car for daily life and with delivery dates still ahead. This property inverts that trade-off: at €635,000 fixed, it costs more per square metre than those developments, and what the buyer receives is not new construction but a 1990 building with a recent, complete interior renovation, delivered furnished and immediately usable. The value proposition rests on location rather than facilities. Central Málaga combines year-round urban activity, cultural infrastructure such as the Cervantes Theatre and the museum quarter, a walkable daily routine and a public transport network of 22 lines, none of which the resort towns match at the same intensity. Beaches remain accessible at 2.3 to 3.7 kilometres straight-line, which is closer than many inland new-build alternatives, though without the direct sea views of a frontline development. Golf, a staple of the western Costa del Sol, sits eight to eleven kilometres away and requires driving. Buyers choosing between this apartment and the coastal new-builds are effectively choosing between city lifestyle and resort lifestyle, between immediate availability and phased delivery, and between a D-rated older building and new energy standards. The 130 m² size and three-bedroom layout give it more internal space than most from-price units in the comparable projects, which typically start smaller. For buyers whose priority is living in Málaga itself rather than on the coast, the price is consistent with the city-centre market; for buyers seeking a pool, parking and a modern energy profile at a lower entry cost, the coastal alternatives remain relevant.
