This ground floor apartment is located in Elviria, in the eastern part of Marbella, within a gated urbanisation adjacent to the Santa María Golf area. The property offers 120 m² of built space across two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and was completed in 2008. The residence includes a private terrace, underground private parking, a storage room and air conditioning, and is sold fully furnished. The surrounding area is a low-density residential zone with pine and cork oak cover, local amenities within walking distance, and beaches roughly two kilometres away.
Within the Marbella East segment, Elviria occupies a middle position between the high-density tourist strips and the more dispersed residential zones further along the coast. The asking price of €622,500 for 120 m², approximately €5,190 per square metre, sits above comparable new-build offerings further east and west, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000). That price difference reflects location rather than specification: Elviria combines Marbella postal address proximity, a walkable amenity core and one of the densest golf clusters on the coast, factors that the inland or more peripheral alternatives do not match. Against other Elviria options, this property's profile is that of a furnished, turn-key resale unit rather than a new-build with contemporary energy systems; buyers comparing it with newer stock should weigh the absence of documented energy certification and modern installations against the practical advantages of a completed, established complex. For rental-oriented buyers, the area's documented tourism capacity, 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds in the surrounding area, and the 4,743 recorded property transactions in the local market indicate an active resale and letting environment. The Mediterranean setting, with flat access to the coast and a five-month sea-temperature swimming season, is common to the region as a whole; what distinguishes this specific location is the combination of golf proximity, schooling access and walkable daily infrastructure.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in an established residential urbanisation in Elviria, approximately six kilometres east of Marbella's old town. Amenities such as a supermarket (511 m) and pharmacy (445 m) are within walking distance, while three golf facilities lie within two kilometres. Beaches at El Alicate and Playa de Artola are around two kilometres away. Málaga Airport is roughly 32 km away in a straight line.
The property functions as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom home suited to permanent residence, extended stays or rental use. Practical elements include a fully fitted kitchen, fitted wardrobes, double glazing, air conditioning, a private terrace, a storage room and underground private parking. Communal facilities include a swimming pool, and the complex is gated.
This is not a new-build development. The apartment forms part of a completed complex dating from 2008, which places it in an established urbanisation with mature planting and settled community rules. The listed condition is described as excellent. Delivery is immediate, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process and notarial completion.
The property offers no private pool, private garden or sea view. It is a ground floor unit, which limits outlook relative to higher floors. With two bedrooms and 120 m², it does not suit households requiring more than two bedrooms. No information is available regarding an energy performance certificate, lift access or renovation history beyond the stated condition.
This apartment aligns with several recognisable buyer situations. A couple or small family seeking a ready-to-occupy home near Marbella with straightforward daily amenities would find the walkable supermarket, pharmacy and café infrastructure practical, and the proximity of the English International College relevant for school-age children. Golf-oriented buyers benefit from three golf facilities within two kilometres, including Santa María Golf & Country Club, allowing regular play without dependence on the car. Buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave second residence will note the gated complex, underground private parking, storage room and furnished condition, which reduce the practical burden of part-time occupancy. Investors evaluating rental potential can draw on the area's tourism profile, 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds in the wider area indicate sustained visitor demand, and the listing itself carries an investment categorisation. Retirees or downsizers preferring single-level living may find the ground floor position and terrace access convenient, though those wanting sea views from the property itself would need to look elsewhere. The flat terrain and the walkable distances suit residents who prefer not to drive daily, while the 32 km distance to Málaga Airport keeps international travel manageable. What the property does not offer, more than two bedrooms, a private pool or panoramic views, defines the boundary of its suitability, and buyers with those requirements would be better served by other options in the area.
The apartment dates from 2008 and is listed in excellent condition. The specification includes a fully fitted kitchen and two bathrooms, one of which, based on the photographic material, features a double sink vanity with a shower. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, and the photographic record shows balcony access from at least one bedroom with substantial natural light. Climate control is provided through air conditioning, complemented by double glazing throughout, which supports both thermal comfort and acoustic insulation relative to single-glazed stock. The inclusion of furniture in the sale means the property can be occupied or let without an additional furnishing phase; the visible interior styling is conventional and consistent with the construction period. Communal and technical provisions include a shared swimming pool, a private storage room and an underground private parking space, the latter protecting the vehicle from sun exposure and reducing summer interior temperatures on return journeys. As a ground floor unit, the apartment has direct terrace access, with outdoor seating visible in the property images. The gated complex provides perimeter security. No data is available on the energy performance certificate rating, the electrical installation's compliance history, or any community-level renovation works such as façade or pool upgrades; buyers wishing to verify these points should request the corresponding documentation, including the community certificates and minutes, during due diligence. Overall, the specification is that of a well-maintained mid-2000s build with practical features rather than contemporary new-build technology such as aerothermal hot water, home automation or EV charging within the complex, the nearest public charging point is approximately 1.1 km away.
The asking price for this apartment is €622,500, which corresponds to approximately €5,190 per square metre of built area. The listing is categorised as reduced, indicating a price adjustment from a previous level. The property is sold fully furnished, which affects the effective total cost of acquisition compared with unfurnished equivalents. As a resale unit completed in 2008, the price reflects the established Elviria market rather than new-build pricing. Comparable new developments elsewhere on the coast, such as projects in Torre del Mar, Mijas and Estepona starting from €205,000 to €270,000, operate in a different segment in terms of location and specification. Availability is immediate, subject to the standard purchase process.
Elviria is a low-density residential area east of Marbella centre, characterised by villas interspersed with low-rise apartment complexes and substantial native vegetation, mostly pine trees and cork oaks. Daily life around this apartment is oriented towards convenience on foot: a supermarket sits just over 500 metres away, a pharmacy 445 metres, and within a two-kilometre radius there are roughly 29 restaurants, 9 cafés, 4 pharmacies and a bank. The English International College lies 800 metres from the property, which is relevant for families considering schooling options. The golf environment defines much of the immediate setting. Greenlife Golf Marbella is approximately 800 metres away, with a driving range slightly further and Santa María Golf & Country Club within two kilometres. This concentration of courses shapes the rhythm of the neighbourhood, which tends to be quiet outside peak holiday periods. The apartment itself is a ground floor unit with a private terrace that opens directly towards the communal grounds. As a completed 2008 construction within a gated complex, it offers established communal infrastructure, including a shared pool, underground parking and a private storage room. The terrain between the complex and the coast is essentially flat, a 1.5 per cent gradient towards El Alicate beach, meaning the roughly two-kilometre route to the sea is walkable or cyclable for most residents. Public transport is available through three bus lines serving 39 stops in the area, though a car remains the practical choice for reaching Marbella centre, Puerto Banús or the airport.
Daily life around this Elviria apartment is shaped by a low-density residential fabric with services concentrated within walking and cycling distance. The supermarket at 511 metres and the pharmacy at 445 metres make routine shopping manageable on foot, and the broader two-kilometre radius contains around 29 restaurants and 9 cafés, giving residents genuine choice without driving. Health infrastructure extends to five health centres in the wider area, with the nearest hospital approximately 3.6 km away. Education options are notable for this location: 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools serve the wider area, and the English International College sits 800 metres from the property. Transport is provided by three public lines serving 39 stops, connecting Elviria with Marbella and surrounding towns; however, the practical reality of the area is that most residents use a car for longer trips. The A-7 and AP-7 corridors place Marbella centre about six kilometres away and Fuengirola's train station within reach for rail connections towards Málaga. The terrain is essentially flat, the property sits at roughly 30 metres above sea level with a 1.5 per cent gradient towards the coast, so the two-kilometre walk or cycle to El Alicate or Playa de Artola is undemanding. Outside the summer months, Elviria quiets considerably, as much of the surrounding accommodation serves seasonal visitors; year-round residents rely on the permanent local infrastructure rather than seasonal trade.
The map shows the apartment's position within Elviria's residential fabric: the golf courses to the north and west, the supermarket and pharmacy within a short walk, and the coastline at El Alicate and Playa de Artola roughly two kilometres south. Marbella centre lies west along the coast, with the airport to the north-east beyond Málaga.

Elviria functions as the commercial and social centre of Marbella East, positioned roughly six kilometres from Marbella's old town and within the broader Málaga provincial coastline. Relative to neighbouring areas, it is more established and lower in density than the large resort zones west of Marbella, and more service-rich than the scattered residential developments further east towards Calahonda. The location combines villa-area character with pockets of low-rise apartment complexes, distinguishing it from both high-rise tourist strips and purely rural inland zones. Accessibility is anchored by the A-7 coastal motorway, Málaga Airport at approximately 32 km, and the rail connection at Fuengirola for wider regional travel.
Beaches are within practical reach: Playa de Artola lies 1.9 km away, El Alicate 2.1 km, and the Blue Flag-listed Playa de Cabopino 4.4 km, the latter adjacent to the protected dune system and the marina at Puerto Cabopino (4.7 km). Golf access is a defining feature of the location, with Greenlife Golf Marbella at 805 metres, its driving range at 1.1 km and Santa María Golf & Country Club at 1.8 km. Marbella's old town is roughly six kilometres west, with the marinas at Marina Marbella (7.6 km) and La Bajadilla (7.8 km) nearby. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 32 km away in a straight line, typically a 35 to 45-minute drive depending on traffic, while Gibraltar Airport is roughly 64 km away. Sports facilities include the Don Carlos Tennis Club at 1.8 km, and an electric vehicle charging point is located 1.1 km from the complex.

The location records approximately 3,855 sunshine hours per year historically, with an average annual temperature of 19.1°C, figures consistent with the eastern Marbella coastline. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures at or above 20°C, extends to roughly five months, generally from late spring into early autumn. The property sits at about 30 metres above sea level on terrain with a 1.5 per cent slope towards the coast, meaning no significant climbing on foot routes to the beach. The immediate landscape is vegetated with native pine trees and cork oaks, which shapes the microclimate of the urbanisation, providing shade and reducing the exposed, arid character of some coastal zones. For residents, this translates into outdoor use of the private terrace across most of the year, mild winters where heating needs are limited, and summers where the double glazing and air conditioning specified in the property manage indoor temperatures during the hottest weeks.

The nearest coastline includes El Alicate and Playa de Artola, both approximately two kilometres from the property, and Playa de Cabopino at 4.4 km, which holds Blue Flag status and borders a protected dune reserve. Puerto Cabopino, at 4.7 km, is a small marina with surrounding chiringuitos and moorings, offering a more contained alternative to Marbella's larger ports. Recreational infrastructure is golf-heavy: three facilities within two kilometres, Greenlife Golf Marbella, its driving range and Santa María Golf & Country Club, place the property within one of the densest golf clusters on the Costa del Sol. Tennis is served by the Don Carlos Tennis Club at 1.8 km. Swimming pool facilities beyond the communal pool include Playa Real and Camping Marbella Playa, both around 2.5 km away. For outdoor activity generally, the flat coastal terrain and the vegetated residential streets support walking and cycling as everyday modes rather than purely leisure pursuits.
