Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands in the urban core of Marbella, close to shops and the town centre. Playa de la Bajadilla is roughly 738 m away as the crow flies, and the fishing port and marina area sit within about 1.3 km. Amenities are dense: 137 restaurants, 29 pharmacies and 25 cafés within 2 km. The area is flat, with a gradient to the beach of around 1.4%.
The layout provides three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 110 m² of living space, with a utility room and fitted wardrobes. The living-dining room includes built-in cabinets, and there is a balcony with street view. A lift serves the building, and the property has air conditioning and double glazing. The south orientation supports natural light through the day.
This is not a new-build project. The apartment is a resale property in a building completed in 1978, offered key-ready and in good condition according to the listing data. No construction phases, off-plan timelines or developer guarantees apply. The kitchen is fully fitted, and the home is ready for occupation upon purchase, subject to the usual transaction process.
The listing shows no private pool, no private garden, no private parking space and no communal pool or gym. The building dates from 1978, meaning construction standards of that period apply rather than current new-build regulations. No plot, terrace surface or energy data has been published. Buyers should verify community fees and any renovation history independently.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a low-maintenance base in central Marbella, within walking distance of shops, the beach and healthcare, will find the location matches that requirement directly. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout suits a small family, two couples sharing, or owners who regularly host guests. For buyers relocating year-round, the density of amenities, supermarket, pharmacy, hospital, sports centres and public transport, means daily life functions without a car. For investors, the listing is categorised as suitable for investment, and Marbella records roughly 4,743 housing transactions per year with sustained rental demand driven by 52 hotels and tourism infrastructure; a central resale unit at this price point sits below the entry level of comparable new-build stock. The property is less suited to buyers wanting a private pool, garden or private parking, since none are listed. It also does not match expectations of contemporary new-build construction: the building dates from 1978, and renovation history should be verified. Buyers prioritising panoramic views or a gated resort environment will find the urban street setting different from what such projects offer.
The apartment is listed in good condition and delivered key-ready. Technical features include double glazing, air conditioning, a lift in the building, fitted wardrobes and a utility room. The kitchen is fully fitted. Utilities connected are electricity, drinkable water and telephone. The photographs indicate a living-dining room with built-in cabinetry, a bedroom with desk, wardrobe and bed, and a modern-designed lift interior, suggesting the building has undergone some upgrading of common areas. The construction period, 1978, is relevant context: buildings of that era in Spain typically have solid concrete or brick structures but predate current insulation, accessibility and energy-efficiency standards. Double glazing and air conditioning partially address thermal comfort, but buyers should assess insulation quality, electrical installation condition and any community renovation plans during a technical survey. South orientation reduces heating demand in winter. No energy performance certificate data, plot details or terrace measurements have been published, and these should be requested. The absence of listed private parking means buyers with a car will rely on street parking or a nearby public facility, and this should be checked on site.
The asking price is fixed at €370,000 for the complete property, this is a resale listing, not a price-list development. At 110 m² built, this corresponds to roughly €3,364 per square metre. For context, new-build projects in Marbella currently start higher: Residencial Albatros from €405,000, Nikki Living from €450,000 and Residencial Albatros XV from €471,000. This apartment is available immediately as a key-ready home; there is no waiting period for construction. Availability is subject to the transaction process, and any community fees, IBI and running costs should be confirmed during due diligence.
Daily life around this apartment is defined by its central, walkable setting. The front door opens onto a street with trees and parked cars, an ordinary urban Marbella street rather than a gated resort. A pharmacy sits 8 m away, a supermarket 234 m, and a hospital under 1 km, which reduces dependence on a car for routine errands. The kitchen is fully fitted and a utility room supports practical household management, including washing and drying without occupying living space. The balcony, with chairs and a street view, functions as an outdoor extension of the living area, oriented south so it receives sun through the middle of the day. Inside, the living-dining room with built-in cabinets and the three bedrooms with fitted wardrobes provide storage that limits the need for additional furniture. The two bathrooms reduce morning congestion for a family or for guests. Leisure options are close: the municipal sports centre lies about 200 m away, swimming pools within 0.6-1.1 km, and the marina of Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen about 0.5 km. The beach at Playa de la Bajadilla is a short, flat walk of under a kilometre, suitable for regular visits rather than occasional excursions. With 11 public transport lines and 50 stops in the city, the location also works for residents who prefer not to drive daily.
The surroundings are dense and urban. Within 2 km, the area counts 137 restaurants, 29 pharmacies, 20 banks and 25 cafés, a level of provision that makes daily errands a matter of minutes on foot. A supermarket at 234 m and a pharmacy 8 m from the door cover the most frequent needs. Healthcare is well represented, with a hospital at 996 m and five health centres across the city. Education options include 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, with the British International School about 2.2 km away and the English International College about 8.2 km away. Sports facilities are unusually close: Polideportivo Francisco Norte at roughly 200 m, Polideportivo Riohuelo at 400 m and the Supera Miraflores centre with a pool at 600 m. Public transport runs on 11 lines with 50 stops. The gradient to the beach is around 1.4%, effectively flat, which supports walking and cycling. The trade-off of the central location is urban noise and traffic; the street view shows parked cars and regular activity, so buyers sensitive to quiet should visit at different times of day.

Within Marbella, this resale apartment occupies a different market segment from the new-build developments currently on offer. Residencial Albatros starts from €405,000, Nikki Living from €450,000 and Residencial Albatros XV from €471,000, all above this property's fixed asking price of €370,000. Those developments offer contemporary construction standards, developer warranties and communal facilities; this apartment counters with immediacy and location. It is key-ready, so there is no construction wait or off-plan risk, and its position in the central urban fabric places a supermarket, pharmacy, hospital, sports centres and the beach within walking range. Buyers choosing between the two categories effectively trade new-build specification for centrality and price: at roughly €3,364 per square metre built, this unit sits below new-build entry pricing in the same municipality. Marbella itself anchors the western Costa del Sol. It is the seat of the regional association of municipalities, holds a year-round population of nearly 160,000, and records around 4,743 housing transactions annually, one of the most liquid markets on the coast. Compared with Málaga city 47 km east, Marbella offers a smaller, more tourism-oriented economy with a heavier concentration of international buyers; compared with Estepona or Fuengirola further along the coast, it commands higher average prices but delivers denser services and infrastructure, as reflected in the 52 hotels, five health centres and 415 sports facilities counted in the municipality. For buyers focused on the central, walkable core rather than gated resort living, this segment remains the practical entry point into Marbella ownership.
