A furnished four-bedroom apartment in Teatinos, one of Málaga's most established residential districts, offered at a fixed asking price of €382,000 with agency fees included. The property dates from 1979 and is in good condition, offering 112 m² of living space, two full bathrooms and two assigned parking spaces within a gated complex. The building has a lift and entry phone. Teatinos sits roughly 3 km from central Málaga and about 3.5 km from the nearest beach, with metro stations, schools, health centres and a wide range of daily amenities within walking distance.
Comparing this apartment with new-build projects along the western Costa del Sol clarifies what the €382,000 fixed price buys. In Torre del Mar, the Aquamar development starts at €269,950; in Mijas, Lantana Residencial starts at €205,000; and in Estepona, Etherna Homes 2 starts at €321,000. On a pure price-per-square-metre basis, those coastal or inland-edge new builds can appear cheaper at entry level, but they are typically smaller units with from-pricing that rises with floor level and view, and, importantly, they sit in resort-oriented towns rather than in Málaga city itself. This Teatinos property takes the opposite position: an established 1979 resale in a consolidated metropolitan district, 3 km from a city centre of nearly 580,000 inhabitants, with a metro line, university and hospital infrastructure within the neighbourhood. What the buyer gains is urban depth, fifty bus lines, 26 health centres city-wide, an extensive school network and year-round rental demand, plus two parking spaces and furniture included in the fixed price. What the buyer gives up relative to the new-build comparables is modern construction standards, contemporary energy performance and often communal facilities such as pools. For a household whose priority is living or working in Málaga city, proximity to the airport at 6 km and the beach at 3.5 km, the Teatinos option competes on location and functionality rather than on finish. For buyers focused on holiday use or coastal resort life, the Torre del Mar, Mijas and Estepona projects operate in a different market segment altogether. Transaction volume in the area, at 7,240 housing sales per year, indicates an active resale market, which matters for both exit liquidity and rental demand.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Teatinos lies in the western part of Málaga city, roughly 3 km from the historic centre. The district is fully urbanised, with three metro stations within 1.2 km and approximately fifty bus stops served by fifty lines. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is around 6 km away as the crow flies. Playa de San Andrés is the closest beach at 3.5 km straight-line distance.
The apartment has four exterior bedrooms with windows, two full bathrooms and a living-dining room with a fireplace. It is sold furnished, which suits buyers seeking immediate occupancy or rental use. Two assigned parking spaces are included. The south-east orientation provides morning to midday light. Solid wood interior carpentry and tiled floors characterise the finish.
This is a resale property completed in 1979 and described as key-ready, meaning it can be occupied without waiting for construction. The condition is recorded as good, though the 1979 construction date means the interior styling and installations reflect their era. The building features a lift and is set within a gated enclosure with entry phone access.
The property does not include a swimming pool, garden, terrace or storage room. It is a 1979 build, so buyers should not expect contemporary new-build standards, materials or energy performance. There is no private outdoor space. Renovation would be needed for anyone wanting a modernised interior, and the development offers no communal leisure facilities beyond the enclosed grounds.
This apartment fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to Málaga for work or study benefits from four exterior bedrooms, two bathrooms and the density of schools in the area, the data lists 147 primary schools and 101 secondary schools city-wide, many of them reachable from Teatinos. Parents who no longer want to drive daily will value the metro at 0.7 km and roughly fifty bus lines. Buyers seeking a low-maintenance city base rather than a coastal holiday home will find the profile matches: the beach is a short trip away at 3.5 km, but the property's strengths are urban. Investors have two routes described in the listing: whole-property rental to families or renting by the room, with both noted as having solid local demand. The included furniture and parking spaces reduce the initial outlay after purchase. It also suits a buyer with renovation plans, the solid construction and good condition provide a workable base, and the price leaves room in a budget for modernising over time. It fits less well for anyone wanting a pool, sea views, a terrace or new-build energy efficiency; those requirements point towards other segments of the market.
The interior reflects late-seventies Spanish construction updated through maintenance rather than full renovation. The condition is recorded as good, and the images confirm a clean, habitable state. The living-dining room has a brick fireplace with a shelf, wooden finishes and, according to the listing, abundant natural light. The kitchen is equipped and includes a breakfast area plus space for a washing machine. Interior carpentry is solid wood throughout, visible in the hallway doors and bedroom doors, and the floors are described as in good condition. The four bedrooms are exterior-facing with windows, and several include fitted wardrobes. Of the two full bathrooms, one has a bathtub and the other a shower, both with tiled walls, as shown in the photographs. Technically, the apartment is delivered key-ready and furnished, so no construction phase or completion risk applies. Buyers should note the 1979 construction date when assessing insulation, electrical installations and window performance, the listing does not state that these have been renewed. The building has a lift and a gated entrance with entry phone. Structural and communal elements fall under the building's community of owners, whose fees and reserve fund status are worth verifying during due diligence. Overall, the finishing level is honest and functional rather than contemporary, and the solid woodwork and exterior orientation give a sound starting point for gradual improvement.
The asking price is fixed at €382,000, and according to the listing the agency fees are included in that figure. This is an existing resale home, not a new-build price list, so the price applies to this specific apartment. The price covers the furnished property and two assigned parking spaces. At 112 m² of living area with four bedrooms, the price per square metre sits in the mid-range for established Málaga city districts. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs such as transfer tax and notary fees, which are not included in the asking price.
Daily life here revolves around an established city neighbourhood rather than a resort setting. Teatinos functions as a working residential district of Málaga, which means the rhythm is year-round: schools, health centres, pharmacies, banks and supermarkets operate in every season, and the streets are not shaped by tourism. The listing notes 51 pharmacies, 35 restaurants, 12 banks and 10 cafés within 2 km, so most errands can be done on foot. The apartment itself is arranged for family living. Four exterior bedrooms give space for children, guests or home offices, and the two full bathrooms reduce morning pressure in a larger household. The living-dining room has a fireplace and wooden finishes, with the south-east orientation bringing light from early morning into the afternoon. The kitchen includes a breakfast area and space for a washing machine. The two parking spaces are a practical asset in a district where on-street parking is described as difficult. Gated grounds with entry phone add a level of security. Commuting is straightforward: Ciudad de la Justicia metro station is 0.7 km away on foot, with two more stations within 1.2 km. Málaga city centre, the airport and the beach are all reachable without long journeys. For an investor, the four bedrooms and furnished delivery open the possibility of renting to families or by the room, both of which the listing identifies as in demand locally.
Teatinos is one of Málaga's most consolidated districts, and the surroundings show it: the property sits within 2 km of 35 restaurants, 51 pharmacies, 12 banks, 10 cafés and 2 dental clinics, alongside a health centre network of 26 centres across the city. Educational supply is substantial, with 147 primary and 101 secondary schools recorded. For sport, Ciudad Deportiva Carranque is 1.3 km away, and two skateparks, Skatepark Chernóbil at 1.1 km and Skatepark Málaga at 1.2 km, serve younger users. The nearest metro station, Ciudad de la Justicia, is a 0.7 km walk, with Portada Alta at 0.9 km and Carranque at 1.2 km; about fifty bus lines serve the district. Elevations such as Mirador Torre del Atabal (1.7 km) offer walking routes with views over the city and bay. The area is residential and, per the listing, quiet within its gated enclosure, while remaining embedded in a full-service urban fabric. Car ownership is convenient here thanks to the two parking spaces, though daily life does not depend on the car. The gradient towards the coast is a flat 1.9%, making cycling to the beach realistic.
The map shows the apartment's position within Teatinos, west of Málaga's centre. Note the metro stations clustered within about a kilometre, the flat route towards the beaches at 3.5 km, and the airport just 6 km to the south-west as the crow flies.

Within the Costa del Sol, this property represents the urban Málaga end of the spectrum rather than the resort corridor. Málaga city, with 579,076 inhabitants, functions as the region's economic and cultural capital, and Teatinos is one of its most established western districts, known for the university campus, hospital complex and family housing stock. Marbella lies 45 km to the south-west and Granada 92 km to the north-east. The location trades coastal immediacy for metropolitan depth: full services, transport and year-round urban life, with the beach a short metro or bike ride away.
The nearest beach, Playa de San Andrés, lies 3.5 km away as the crow flies, with Playa de la Misericordia at 4.1 km; the road distance will be somewhat longer. Central Málaga is 3 km straight-line, giving access to the old town, the port and cultural institutions such as the Picasso Museum district. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is roughly 6 km away, one of the closest airport distances imaginable for a city residence. Two marinas, IGY Málaga Marina at 4.2 km and Marina Real Club Mediterráneo at 4.6 km, sit along the waterfront. Golfers can reach Club de Golf de Guadalhorce at 6.7 km, Club de Golf Málaga Parador at 7.8 km and Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 10.3 km. Electric-vehicle charging points begin at 3.7 km towards the airport corridor. Public transport is the standout: three metro stations within 1.2 km and fifty bus lines make the car optional for most trips.

Málaga records an average annual temperature of 18.8 °C, with monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in winter to 27 °C in summer, the classic Mediterranean profile of mild winters and warm, dry summers. The swimming season lasts about six months, with sea temperatures at or above 20 °C. Teatinos sits at 68 m above sea level on flat terrain, with a 1.9% gradient towards the coast, so there are no steep walks to contend with. The immediate environment is urban rather than green, but viewpoints such as Mirador Torre del Atabal (1.7 km) and Mirador de los Camineros (2.7 km) provide nearby escapes with panoramas over the bay and surrounding hills. For a south-east oriented apartment, mornings receive direct sun, which is welcome in winter and avoids the strongest western afternoon heat in summer. Outdoor living is practical for most of the year, with terrace and beach use concentrated between late spring and early autumn.

The coastal stretch near Teatinos includes Playa de San Andrés at 3.5 km and Playa de la Misericordia at 4.1 km, both straight-line figures; these are wide urban beaches west of the centre, popular with locals and equipped with chiringuitos along the Paseo. The roughly six-month swimming season means sea bathing is comfortable from late May into October. Marinas at 4.2 km and 4.6 km add sailing and waterfront dining options. Golf is well represented, with three courses within 10.3 km, including the Miguel Ángel Jiménez course. City recreation is equally close: Ciudad Deportiva Carranque at 1.3 km offers municipal sports facilities, and two skateparks sit within 1.2 km. Tourism infrastructure, 89 hotels and 12,584 beds city-wide, supports visiting family and friends. For day trips, Marbella is 45 km and Granada 92 km as the crow flies, both reachable for a full day out.
