A corner semi-detached house in an urban area of Marbella, within walking distance of the beach and daily amenities. The property offers 186 m² of built area across three levels, with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, an independent apartment of approximately 60 m², a private garage and extensive outdoor space including a rooftop terrace of around 60 m². Built in 1997 and offered key-ready at a fixed asking price of €640,700, the house forms part of a gated residential community with a communal swimming pool and green areas. The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla, lies roughly 740 metres away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in a built-up, walkable part of Marbella. A supermarket lies about 234 metres away and a pharmacy is practically next door at roughly 8 metres. Playa de la Bajadilla beach is some 740 metres away in a straight line, and the municipal sports centre sits within 200 metres. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is approximately 39 km away as the crow flies.
The layout serves households needing space and flexibility: four bedrooms and four bathrooms across three levels, plus a separate apartment of about 60 m² suitable for guests, relatives or a home office. Outdoor areas total roughly 210 m² of terraces and side space, and a private garage of around 20 m² is included. Air conditioning and fitted wardrobes are already installed.
This is an existing property, completed in 1997 and available key-ready, so no construction phase or delivery wait applies. The asking price is fixed at €640,700. The house is presented as a foundation for renovation, allowing buyers to modernise to their own specification rather than moving into newly built finishes.
The property has no private swimming pool; bathing is via the communal pool. The plot is compact at 30 m², with most outdoor space arranged as terraces rather than a garden. There is no private garden, and the stated rooftop expansion possibilities depend on planning permission. Buyers seeking a new-build home or modern energy performance should note the 1997 construction date.

This house suits buyers who prioritise location and internal space over new-build finishes. A family needing four bedrooms and four bathrooms within walking distance of schools, 41 primary and 28 secondary schools operate in Marbella, would find the layout workable, and the independent apartment can absorb teenagers, grandparents or a home office. Buyers with renovation appetite fit the profile: the property is explicitly positioned as a solid base for a personalised update, so those wanting a move-in-ready contemporary interior should look elsewhere or budget for works. Households that value outdoor living without maintaining a large garden may prefer the terrace arrangement, some 210 m² across front, rear, lateral and rooftop levels, over a conventional plot. The absence of a private pool matters less to residents happy to use the communal one at low community fees. Seasonal or permanent residents who prefer not to depend on a car benefit most: the beach, shops, pharmacy and sports facilities are all within walking or cycling distance. Investors should note the rental potential of the separate apartment, though only subject to the relevant regulations and licences. What the property does not offer is a modern energy envelope, a private garden or a plot of conventional size.
The house dates from 1997 and is described as being in excellent condition, with fully fitted kitchen, fully furnished interiors, fitted wardrobes and air conditioning throughout. Interior photographs show bright living rooms with marble floors and curtained windows, along with a balcony overlooking the street scene. The finishes reflect their period rather than current new-build standards, and the marketing explicitly frames the property as a foundation for renovation, buyers can expect to modernise kitchens, bathrooms or surfaces to contemporary taste over time. Technically, the three-level structure distributes the 186 m² of built area over ground, first and roof levels, with the rooftop terrace of about 60 m² as the uppermost usable space. Mains electricity is connected. Orientation is listed as both north and south, which in practice means different façades receive different sun exposure; the south-facing aspect supports the terrace use described. The covered terrace, private terraces and gated complex with communal pool and gardens make up the shared infrastructure, maintained through community fees of approximately €50 per month, a low figure for Marbella. The private garage of around 20 m² provides enclosed parking. Any adaptation of the rooftop terrace into additional rooms would require local planning consent, and conversion or letting of the independent apartment requires the appropriate licences; both processes sit with the buyer to verify.
The property is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €640,700, not a from-price. Included in that figure are the main residence of 186 m² built, the independent apartment of roughly 60 m², the private garage of about 20 m² and the various outdoor spaces. The seller lists the combined usable areas at approximately 420 m², though these carry different classifications and should not all be read as built residential area. As a 1997 build presented as a renovation candidate, buyers should budget separately for modernisation works. Nearby new-build comparables in Marbella start from €450,000 to €638,700, so this asking price reflects the additional space and central position rather than new construction.
Daily life here is organised around walkability. With a pharmacy around 8 metres from the door, a supermarket within roughly 230 metres and a hospital under one kilometre away, most errands require no car. The surrounding urbanisation is dense in amenities, the area intelligence counts 137 restaurants, 25 cafés and 20 banks within two kilometres, which shapes the rhythm of the neighbourhood: mornings for shopping on foot, lunches and evenings within easy reach of home. The house itself is arranged across three levels. The main living area of 186 m² holds four bedrooms and four bathrooms, with fitted wardrobes and air conditioning. The living room opens onto a rear terrace of about 40 m², the kitchen adjoins a front terrace of roughly 30 m², and the corner position adds a lateral outdoor area of around 80 m² that can absorb dining, play or planting. Upstairs, a rooftop terrace of approximately 60 m² provides an elevated outdoor room with mountain views. The independent apartment of some 60 m² functions as a self-contained unit for guests or extended family, subject to relevant licences if let. A private garage of about 20 m² covers parking. The communal pool and green areas sit within the gated complex, and community fees are reported at roughly €50 per month.
The setting is urban Marbella at its most practical. Distances quoted are straight-line, as the crow flies, and actual road distances run longer. Playa de la Bajadilla lies roughly 740 metres away, with Playa de Casablanca at 2.4 km and Playa de la Fontanilla at 2.9 km. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen at about 0.5 km and Marina la Bajadilla at 1.2 km, anchor the seafront, where 137 restaurants and 25 cafés within two kilometres supply year-round dining rather than a seasonal offer. Healthcare access is strong: a hospital sits under one kilometre away, five health centres operate in Marbella, and 29 pharmacies fall within the two-kilometre ring, the nearest eight metres from the front door. Sports facilities number 415 across the municipality, with the Polideportivo Francisco Norte just 200 metres away and Supera Miraflores, including a public pool, within 600 metres. Education options include 41 primary and 28 secondary schools citywide, with the British International School about 2.2 km away and the English International College at 8.2 km. Public transport runs on 11 lines with 50 stops, and many amenities are reachable on foot or by bicycle, so a car is a convenience rather than a necessity here.
The map shows the house in its central Marbella setting: the Bajadilla beach and marina to the southeast, the sports centre practically adjacent, and the dense grid of shops, cafés and services within a two-kilometre ring. Golf courses lie inland to the northwest at six to eight kilometres.

Marbella sits at the heart of the Costa del Sol, roughly 47 km southwest of Málaga (579,076 inhabitants), the provincial capital and transport hub. The municipality counts 159,786 residents as of 2025 and records around 4,743 housing transactions per year, making it one of the region's most liquid markets. Algeciras lies about 66 km away and Jerez de la Frontera 113 km. Within Marbella itself, this property occupies a central, fully urbanised position near the seafront and marina quarter, closer to the town's everyday infrastructure than to the villa zones of the golf valley or the resort developments east of the centre.
Beaches: Playa de la Bajadilla is roughly 740 metres away as the crow flies, with Casablanca and Fontanilla within 2.9 km. Golf: the nearest courses, Golf Los Naranjos, The Range and Aloha Golf Club, lie between 6.0 and 6.8 km away in the golf valley direction. Airport: Málaga-Costa del Sol sits approximately 39 km away in a straight line, with Gibraltar at about 58 km as an alternative. Shops and services: supermarket 234 m, pharmacy 8 m, hospital 996 m. Transport: 11 public bus lines with 50 stops serve Marbella, and an EV charging point is available 2.1 km away, with a Supercharger at 3.3 km. By car, the main road network connects quickly to central Marbella, the beaches and shopping areas, though the walkable layout means daily trips often need no vehicle at all.

Marbella records an average annual temperature of 19.1°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, and the swimming season, when sea water holds at 20°C or above, lasts about five months. The town sits at roughly 31 metres above sea level, and the gradient from the house towards the beach averages a flat 1.4%, so walking to the sea involves no meaningful climb. The property's mountain views and rooftop orientation give a visual link to the Sierra behind the coast. Sunshine supports the terrace-centred use of the house: a south-facing aspect, a 60 m² solarium-level roof terrace and layered outdoor spaces on the lower levels allow sun exposure across different times of day. The climate is a central factor in how this property is used, outdoor dining, gardening in containers and rooftop lounging are realistic for most of the year rather than summer-only activities.

Within Marbella, this property competes with new-build developments such as The Grove (from €638,700), Nikki Living (from €450,000) and Residencial Albatros XV (from €471,000). Its fixed asking price of €640,700 sits at the upper end of that range, and the comparison explains why: the buyer acquires total usable space of roughly 420 m² including the independent apartment, garage and outdoor areas, considerably more floor area than new-build apartments at similar prices, though not all of it counts as built residential area. The trade-off is age. A 1997 build carries older construction standards, a dated energy envelope and renovation costs that new-build buyers avoid; in exchange, it offers a central position within walking distance of the beach, marina and the full urban infrastructure of a town of 159,786 inhabitants. New-build alternatives in this price band tend to sit further from the seafront or offer smaller footprints with modern finishes and developer warranties. Marbella's market context matters too: with about 4,743 housing transactions per year, eight Blue Flag beaches, 52 hotels and an average annual temperature of 19.1°C, the town sustains year-round demand from both residents and international buyers, which historically supports liquidity for well-located resale stock. Buyers weighing this house against new build are effectively choosing between space and centrality on one side and contemporary specification on the other; both strategies have a market here, but they serve different priorities.
