This key-ready townhouse is situated in Elviria, a low-density residential area east of Marbella on the Costa del Sol. The property offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 109 m² of built living space, built in 1984 and maintained in good condition. The asking price is a fixed €499,500. Features include air conditioning, a private terrace with solarium, fitted wardrobes, double glazing, a storage room and a fully fitted kitchen. Communal facilities comprise a swimming pool, garden and paddle tennis court. Golf courses, beaches, shops and schools all lie within a short radius of the urbanisation.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The townhouse stands in an urbanisation in Elviria, roughly 6 km from Marbella's old town and about 2 km from the nearest beach as the crow flies. A supermarket is 511 m away, a pharmacy 445 m, and three golf clubs lie within 2 km. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport sits 32 km away in a direct line. Many daily amenities can be reached on foot or by bicycle.
The home suits a household needing three bedrooms and three bathrooms within a compact 109 m² footprint. Practical features include air conditioning, double glazing, fitted wardrobes and a storage room, while the solarium and private terrace extend the usable space outdoors. Communal pool, garden and paddle court provide recreation without private maintenance obligations.
This is not a new-build development. The property was completed in 1984 and is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase. Its condition is described as excellent in the listing data. Renovation or construction risk is therefore absent, but buyers should factor the age of the building into structural and installation assessments during due diligence.
The property does not offer a private pool or private garden; both are communal. There is no private garage mentioned in the data. The plot size is not stated, and the built area of 109 m² is modest for a three-bedroom home. No sea view is recorded, and the site is set roughly 2 km from the coast rather than directly on it.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family needing three bedrooms near schooling would find the English International College only 0.8 km away as the crow flies, plus 3 schools within 2 km and a wide choice of primary and secondary education across the wider area. A couple seeking a low-maintenance second home could rely on the communal garden and pool rather than private upkeep, with a lock-up-and-leave layout including a storage room. Golf players get three courses within 2 km, including Greenlife Golf at roughly 800 m, making the fairways a genuine extension of the garden. Buyers prioritising walkability benefit from a supermarket and pharmacy under 550 m from the door, an unusual density of convenience for a villa district. Investors may note the investment category attached to the listing and the 4,743 housing transactions per year recorded in the area, indicating an active resale market with rental demand supported by 52 hotels and nearly 12,800 tourist beds nearby. The home is less suited to buyers wanting a private pool, a private garden or direct beachfront living, since these elements are communal or absent here. It also does not serve households needing more than 109 m² of internal space. For year-round residents, the flat terrain, the nearby health infrastructure, a hospital 3.6 km away and 5 health centres in the district, and the mild winter climate make permanent residence practical rather than seasonal.
The listing describes the condition as excellent, and the feature list points to a property that has been upgraded over its lifetime rather than left in its 1984 state. Climate control is provided by air conditioning, which handles the hot summer months when average temperatures push daily life indoors at midday. Double glazing is fitted throughout, improving insulation against both heat and the noise of the surrounding urbanisation. The kitchen is fully fitted, with interior photography showing modern units and stainless-steel appliances, meaning the buyer does not need to budget for a kitchen installation. Bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, and one bedroom photograph shows direct access to a balcony, connecting the sleeping quarters to outdoor space. The private terrace and solarium form the outdoor layer of the home; the solarium sits at roof level and typically captures sun for most of the day, which suits outdoor dining and drying laundry alike. A storage room adds practical capacity for suitcases, sports gear and seasonal items. A jacuzzi is listed among the features, providing a private wellness element. On the communal side, the urbanisation maintains a shared pool, gardens and a paddle tennis court, with the associated costs shared among owners through community fees. Given the building's age, buyers are advised to verify the state of the roof, plumbing and electrical installations during the technical survey, as these systems fall outside the scope of the visible finishes. The overall picture is a solid, updated family home with contemporary comforts layered onto an established structure.
The asking price is fixed at €499,500 for this existing townhouse; it is not a from-price, and the amount applies to the whole property as listed. The listing carries a reduced-price category, indicating a recent price adjustment by the seller. At €499,500 for 109 m², the property is positioned in the middle segment of the Marbella East market, above new-build starter projects further along the coast but below villa pricing in Elviria itself. Availability is immediate, as the home is key-ready with no construction phase or delivery waiting time. Interested parties can request current documentation, community fee details and floor plans to verify the full cost picture before committing.
Daily life around this townhouse is shaped by Elviria's character as a leafy, low-density residential zone at the heart of Marbella East. The area is covered with native pine trees and cork oaks, and villas alternate with low-rise apartment complexes. For the resident, this translates into quiet streets and green surroundings, while still having a supermarket 511 m away and a pharmacy 445 m from the door. Within 2 km there are 29 restaurants, 9 cafes, 4 pharmacies, a bank and 3 schools, so most errands do not require a car. The morning routine might involve a short walk for bread and coffee, followed by work from home, the interior photographs show a desk set-up with natural light. In the afternoon, Greenlife Golf Marbella lies about 805 m away, with a driving range slightly further and Santa María Golf & Country Club at 1.8 km. Paddle tennis is available within the urbanisation itself. Beaches such as El Alicate and Playa de Artola sit about 2 km away in a direct line, reachable by car or bicycle along a largely flat route with a gradient of about 1.5%. Marbella's old town, 9 km away, offers the cultural and commercial weight of a city of nearly 148,000 inhabitants. Public transport covers the area with 3 lines and 39 stops, which supports car-free living for some routines, although a vehicle remains practical for airport runs and exploring the coast. The climate supports outdoor living for most of the year, with an average annual temperature of 19.1°C and a swimming season of five months.
Elviria functions as the commercial centre of Marbella East, which means residents of this urbanisation enjoy urban convenience without high-density construction.

An EV charging point is available 1.1 km from the property, relevant for electric vehicle owners.

The property stands about 30 m above sea level on terrain that slopes gently towards the coast at roughly 1.5%, so no strenuous hills separate the home from the beach. Elviria's landscape is characterised by native pine trees and cork oaks, giving the district a green canopy unusual for the built-up Costa del Sol. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 19.1°C, meaning mild winters in which outdoor life continues and hot summers managed here by air conditioning. The swimming season lasts about five months, with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, typically from late May into October. Sunshine hours are high year-round, which suits the solarium orientation of this type of home. Rainfall concentrates in the cooler months, keeping summers dry. The combination of low elevation, tree cover and sea proximity moderates temperature extremes relative to inland Andalusia.

Set against comparable offerings along the Costa del Sol, this Elviria townhouse occupies a different market segment from the newer developments further east and west. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000, all new-build projects positioned at lower entry points. Those developments offer modern construction and communal planning, but in locations that generally sit further from Marbella's amenity base or in areas with a different, often more seasonal character. At €499,500, this property commands a premium of roughly €230,000 over those starting prices, and the explanation lies in location rather than novelty. Elviria sits within Marbella municipality, 9 km from the old town, with an established infrastructure of 29 restaurants, multiple schools and five health centres within the district. The resale context also matters: with 4,743 housing transactions per year recorded locally, liquidity in this market is high compared with quieter zones. The trade-off for buyers is the building's age, 1984 versus brand-new construction, and the absence of developer warranties that come with new build. In return, the buyer gets immediate availability, a mature urbanisation with grown landscaping, and a position between three golf courses within 2 km that new projects on the coast rarely match. For a like-for-like budget, a buyer choosing between a new apartment in Torre del Mar and this townhouse in Elviria is effectively choosing between modern specification and Marbella East location value, with proximity to the airport broadly similar at 32 km straight-line here.
