It is located in an established urbanisation with a community garden. The position provides proximity to both coastal areas and local amenities, making it a practical option for those seeking residence in the eastern part of the Marbella region.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in Elviria, approximately 9 km east of Marbella town centre. The terrain is flat, with an elevation of 41 metres above sea level. The urbanisation is characterised by low-density residential buildings and vegetation. It is positioned within a 2 km radius of extensive commercial and dining facilities.
The layout accommodates two bedrooms and a single bathroom, spread over 95 m². This configuration suits a small household or a couple. The presence of a communal garden contributes to outdoor space availability without the requirement for private maintenance. The property is delivered fully furnished and equipped.
This project is a completed development, originally constructed in 1983. No further construction phases are pending. The building status is 'ready for occupation', implying immediate availability for transfer of ownership without the risks associated with off-plan purchasing.
The property maintains its original 1983 condition, requiring modernisation to match contemporary standards. With only one bathroom for two bedrooms, the layout may present logistical constraints for shared living. The property does not feature a private swimming pool, relying instead on communal facilities.
This property suits a buyer seeking immediate availability in a central location of the Costa del Sol who is willing to undertake refurbishment. It is appropriate for a small household looking for a permanent residence or a holiday home requiring minimal external maintenance. The configuration and location also lend themselves to a rental investment strategy, given the proximity to golf courses and beaches. Buyers prioritising location and exterior space over modern interiors will find this project relevant. It requires a budget for updating the kitchen, bathroom, and potentially electrical systems to meet current expectations.
The property retains the original finishes from its 1983 construction date. Visual inspection indicates tiled flooring throughout, typical of the era, and wooden stair railings. The kitchen is fitted but appears dated, consistent with the property's age. While structural condition is reported as good, the aesthetic level is functional rather than contemporary. The bathroom facilities are original. Renovation would be necessary to install modern insulation, double glazing, and updated plumbing. The communal areas, including the garden, are maintained by the community, ensuring the exterior environment remains tidy.
The price is set from €420,000. This positions the property at approximately €4,400 per square metre. Given the location in Elviria and the ready-to-move-in status, the pricing reflects the value of land in this established area rather than the condition of the interior. The cost offers an entry point into a popular neighbourhood of Marbella East, with potential value addition through renovation.
Elviria functions as a self-contained hub within Marbella East, offering a mix of residential calm and commercial activity. Daily life here revolves around accessibility; supermarkets and pharmacies are within a 500-metre radius, reducing dependency on a vehicle for basic errands. The area is dense with native pine trees, providing shade and a sense of seclusion despite the urban setting. Evenings are typically spent in the numerous restaurants nearby, while the immediate vicinity of the townhouse remains quiet due to the mature, low-rise nature of the urbanisation. The flat terrain facilitates walking or cycling to nearby amenities, which is a practical feature for year-round living.
The immediate environment offers high convenience. Within a 2-kilometre radius, there are 27 restaurants, 9 cafés, and 3 pharmacies, indicating a vibrant local economy. The English International College is located less than 1 km away, adding to the area's appeal for families. The road network connects efficiently to the AP-7 motorway, providing rapid access to Málaga and Gibraltar. The neighbourhood is a mix of villas and apartment complexes, creating a diverse demographic. The presence of 52 local hotels confirms the area's status as a tourism node, yet the residential zones remain distinct from the hotel zones.

Compared to new developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar or Etherna Homes in Estepona, this property in Elviria commands a higher price per square metre. This price difference reflects the established status of Elviria as a prime residential zone within the municipality of Marbella. While projects in Mijas (Lantana) or Estepona may offer lower entry prices, they are situated further from the core amenities of Marbella. Elviria offers a balance of urban infrastructure and resort lifestyle. The primary trade-off is the interior condition; whereas the compared projects are new builds, this Elviria townhouse requires capital expenditure for modernisation. The proximity to international schools and the density of services in Elviria are superior to the more peripheral locations of the comparative projects.
