Located in Manilva at the southwestern edge of the Costa del Sol, this townhouse offers 115 m² of living space within a completed urban complex. The property sits at an elevation of 137 meters, providing views over the countryside and ensuring natural airflow. With a private 24 m² patio, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms, the home is designed to function as a full-time residence. Its location within the village ensures proximity to essential services such as supermarkets and pharmacies within 300 meters.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in an established urban area of Manilva Pueblo. This location provides a balance between residential tranquility and accessibility to coastal amenities. Key facilities, including a sports complex and local schools, are within a 1 km radius. The home is positioned approximately 3 km (as the crow flies) from the shoreline, placing it in a zone that avoids the peak density of beachfront tourism while maintaining connectivity to the coast.
The layout accommodates practical living requirements with three bedrooms and a dedicated laundry room. The inclusion of a private patio extends the usable living space outdoors. A fireplace in the living area addresses heating needs during the winter months. The configuration supports a household requiring distinct sleep and living zones without unnecessary excess space.
This property is classified as 'Ready', meaning it is immediately available for occupancy. The condition is listed as 'Excellent', indicating that structural and mechanical systems are in good order without requiring immediate renovation. The project does not involve off-plan risks, allowing for immediate physical inspection and valuation.
The property has a North orientation, which impacts the amount of direct sunlight on the terrace. One of the three bedrooms is currently utilized as a walk-in wardrobe, effectively reducing the current bedroom count to two. Parking is designated as 'Street', implying there is no private garage or dedicated off-street parking space included with the property.

This property suits buyers seeking a permanent home or a long-term base in Spain rather than a holiday lock-up-and-leave. The patio and fireplace suggest a lifestyle of daily outdoor living and home-centered relaxation. It is also relevant for investors targeting the residential rental market, given the proximity to schools and sports facilities. The property is less suitable for those requiring immediate beach access or private parking.
The home features a fully fitted kitchen and air conditioning. The 'Excellent' condition rating suggests well-maintained interiors. Notable features include a fireplace in the living room, adding to the thermal comfort and aesthetic appeal of the main living area. The finishings are consistent with standard specifications for functional residential housing in the region.
The listing price starts at €275,000. When compared to similar developments in the region, such as Morasol (from €351,520) or Waterfall Residences (from €720,000), this property presents a lower entry price point. The price reflects the positioning in the village rather than a frontline beach location, offering value for buyers prioritizing square footage and proximity to amenities over direct sea views.
Manilva operates as a functioning municipality year-round, distinct from purely seasonal resorts. The elevation of 137 meters above sea level offers a cooler microclimate compared to the immediate coastal strip during summer. Living here involves a routine centered around the village amenities, with the option to travel to the marinas and beaches of La Duquesa for leisure. The terrain slopes moderately towards the coast, influencing the character of the immediate neighborhood.
The environment is defined by its accessibility to both rural and marine landscapes. With 3,845 hours of sunshine per year, outdoor activities are feasible year-round. The proximity to Finca Cortesín Golf Club and the Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa provides recreation options within a 10-minute drive. The local area supports a community lifestyle with 34 sports facilities and a health center nearby.
The map highlights the property's position north of the AP-7 motorway, within the urban nucleus of Manilva. The distance to the coast is visible, as is the proximity to the sports complex and local educational facilities.
Manilva occupies a strategic position on the border of Málaga and Cádiz provinces. This location allows for easy exploration of the western Costa del Sol. It is far enough from the high-density hubs of Marbella to avoid congestion but close enough to utilize services in Estepona. It serves as a practical residential hub for those working in the region or seeking a quieter pace of life.
Access to international travel is facilitated by two airports: Gibraltar (26 km) and Málaga-Costa del Sol (75 km). Daily amenities are highly accessible; a supermarket is 315 meters away, and a pharmacy is within 160 meters. Public transport is available, with 36 stops in the vicinity, though a car is recommended for reaching the coast and the main highway networks efficiently.

The coastline, including La Duquesa and Playa de Sabinillas, is a short drive away. The area offers Blue Flag beaches and marina facilities. Inland, the focus shifts to golf and hiking, with courses like Estepona Golf and Finca Cortesín located within 6 km. The slope of 4.4% towards the sea makes for scenic views but involves some physical gradient.

Compared to projects in Mijas (Arosa) and Fuengirola (Waterfall Residences), this property offers a significantly lower price point relative to size. While coastal projects in central Costa del Sol command premiums for proximity to airports and nightlife, Manilva offers value through space and local integration. It lacks the immediate pedestrian access to the beach seen in frontline Estepona properties but compensates with a stronger village community feel and lower pricing.
