Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in Manilva, at the southwestern edge of the province of Málaga, bordering Cádiz. It sits in an urban environment at an elevation of 79 metres above sea level. The setting is residential, positioned between the coastline and the A-7 motorway, providing a balance between accessibility and inland views.
The layout addresses the requirements of a small household or secondary residence. The 82 m² footprint is distributed across two bedrooms and a separate utility room. The inclusion of a 25 m² terrace extends the living space outdoors. The property comes fully furnished, reducing the need for immediate additional investment in interior items.
Construction of this complex was completed in 2007. As a resale property, it does not carry the risks associated with off-plan purchases, such as construction delays. The development is established, meaning the surrounding infrastructure and communal facilities are fully operational and matured.
The property does not feature a private swimming pool, relying instead on communal facilities within the complex. As a building from 2007, it does not meet the latest energy efficiency standards required of new constructions in Spain. The distance to the beach is 2.6 km, meaning it is not within immediate walking distance of the sea.
This property fits scenarios where buyers seek a turnkey solution without waiting for construction completion. It is suitable for individuals or couples requiring a secondary residence for seasonal use or a permanent home with manageable dimensions. The proximity to golf courses makes it relevant for enthusiasts of the sport. The presence of lifts and gated security addresses accessibility and safety concerns, often relevant for retirees. Furthermore, the inclusion of furniture and parking makes it a practical option for those who intend to minimise the logistical effort of moving and furnishing a property abroad.
The apartment features a traditional Andalusian architectural style. Interior specifications include fitted wardrobes and a kitchen equipped with wood cabinets and stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms are fully fitted, with one featuring a whirlpool bathtub. The terrace is equipped with electric blinds, providing control over sunlight and privacy. Flooring and finishes are consistent with standards from the mid-2000s, prioritising durability over contemporary design trends. The communal areas are described as beautifully maintained, indicating a level of upkeep in the overall complex. The installation of air conditioning addresses climate control needs.
The asking price starts from €315,000. This positions the property below the comparative market price of new developments in the immediate vicinity, such as Morasol (starting from €363,805) and Horizon Views (starting from €369,200). The lower price point reflects the age of the construction (2007) compared to new builds. The transaction includes a fully furnished interior, a parking space, and a storage room, which adds functional value without increasing the purchase price. Prospective buyers should account for community fees applicable to the maintenance of the communal areas.
Daily life in this location is characterised by convenience and a moderate pace. Essential amenities such as a supermarket and a pharmacy are within a 315-metre radius, facilitating routine errands on foot. The immediate environment is urban yet calm, with the residential complex providing a buffer from through traffic. The presence of communal pools and gardens allows for leisure time within the confines of the property. For outdoor activities beyond the complex, the nearby golf courses and the marina at La Duquesa serve as extensions of the living space. The layout supports a lifestyle centred around ease of maintenance, given the managed communal areas, making it suitable for periods of residence throughout the year.

Compared to newer developments in Manilva such as Morasol and Horizon Views, this property offers a lower entry price point, starting from €315,000 versus upwards of €363,000. The price difference is attributable to the completion date of 2007, meaning the specifications reflect building standards of that era rather than contemporary energy efficiency regulations. While new builds offer modern layouts and fresh construction, this project provides immediate occupancy and mature landscaping. In terms of location, it sits in a similar urban zone to the comparable projects, offering comparable access to the coast and golf courses, but distinguishes itself through the inclusion of furniture and parking in the base price, reducing initial additional costs.
