Project Analysis

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

Location

The property is located in the eastern part of Marbella, adjacent to Playa de la Bajadilla. It is characterised by its frontline beach position, placing it within a pedestrian-friendly zone. The complex sits in a dense urban area, distinguishing it from the more isolated residential developments found further inland or towards Nueva Andalucía.

Layout

The layout accommodates permanent living with three bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. An open-plan living area connects to a private terrace, designed for outdoor dining. The inclusion of a private underground parking space and a storage room addresses practical storage needs typical of urban apartment living.

Project Status

Although the original structure dates back to 1973, the specific unit has been completely renovated to contemporary standards. The current condition reflects a modern specification, distinct from the original build. No further construction phases are pending, and the property is available for immediate occupancy.

Points of Attention

The property does not offer a private garden; outdoor space is confined to the private terrace and communal zones. As an apartment within a larger complex, external maintenance is managed by the community. The location is urban and not a gated community, meaning the surroundings are active rather than secluded. It lacks a private swimming pool.

Lifestyle & Surroundings

This residence suits buyers seeking a turnkey property in a central, coastal location without the waiting times associated with new construction. It is appropriate for those who prioritise proximity to the ocean and urban amenities over expansive private grounds or a golf-centric setting. The layout and security features may also appeal to those using the property as a secondary seasonal residence, given the manageable size and inclusion of secure parking.

Build Quality & Finishing

The renovation involved a full modernisation of the interior. Technical specifications include floor-to-ceiling glazing to maximise natural light and sea views. The kitchen is equipped with high-end integrated appliances and features an island layout. Sanitary installations are modern, with bathrooms featuring double sinks and shower units. The use of premium materials is noted in the flooring and joinery. Climate control is managed via air conditioning systems. The building fabric dates from the 1970s, but the internal fitment is contemporary.

Price & Context

Price & Availability

The listed price is €1,440,000. This positions the property in the higher segment of the Marbella market, driven by its frontline location and renovation status. The price per square metre is approximately €9,473. Comparable properties in Marbella, such as the Mare development, start at a similar price point (€1,460,000), while others like Salvia start lower (€1,150,000) but may not offer direct frontline positioning.

Regional Comparison

Compared to new developments such as *Mare* and *Salvia*, this property offers a similar price point but occupies a different segment of the market. While new builds are often located in gated communities further inland, this apartment is situated in an established, frontline urban position. The proximity to the fishing port and the historic centre of Marbella offers a different lifestyle dynamic, one focused on walking and city access, compared to the car-dependent, resort-style living found in golf developments. Compared to *Terra Nova Hills*, which is priced lower, this property commands a premium for its sea views and immediate location. The renovation of a 1970s shell provides modern interiors without the characterless uniformity sometimes associated with speculative new builds.
