This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom penthouse duplex is situated in a gated community near the coast of Manilva, in the province of Málaga. The property offers a combination of modern living comfort and views of the Mediterranean Sea and mountains, with amenities within walking distance. It is part of a residential development focused on a tranquil coastal lifestyle, while maintaining accessibility to urban centers and the airport.
Manilva, situated on the Costa del Sol Occidental, offers a real estate market characterized by a mix of coastal living and access to amenities. Compared to nearby Estepona, which has a more cosmopolitan and bustling atmosphere, Manilva maintains a quieter character. The pricing of this penthouse duplex, starting from €450,000, places it in the mid-range of the local market. Similar properties in Manilva, such as 'Blue View Heights' from €490,000, suggest comparable price levels for multi-bedroom duplex homes in gated communities. 'Pure Sun', with a starting price of €398,000, indicates that options are also available at a lower entry price, possibly with different features or in a slightly different location within Manilva. The availability of Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa at 3.0 km and proximity to golf courses like Finca Cortesín (3.3 km) position Manilva favorably for lovers of nautical and golf activities, similar to other premium locations on the Costa del Sol, but often at a more accessible price point.
