This key-ready townhouse is located in the gated community of Isla de Guadalmina, in Guadalmina Alta on the western side of Marbella municipality. Built in 2000, the property offers 165 m² of living space across two levels, with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private garden with golf course views, and access to a communal swimming pool. The asking price is fixed at €995,000. The urbanisation sits between San Pedro de Alcántara and the Guadalmina commercial centre, roughly 2.3 km from the nearest beaches as the crow flies, in an established residential area with 24-hour security.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property lies in Guadalmina Alta, a residential area between San Pedro de Alcántara and the Guadalmina commercial centre. Beaches such as Playa Atalaya are approximately 2.3 km away in a straight line, while the nearest golf facilities sit within roughly 2.6 km. Marbella town centre is about 11 km away by direct distance. The area is flat, with a gradient of roughly 1.7% toward the coast.
The house is arranged over two floors with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including an en-suite in the master bedroom. The ground floor combines a lounge with fireplace, a dining area, a fitted kitchen, and a bedroom with separate shower room. Covered and private terraces plus a garden extend the living space outdoors. Air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, marble floors, and fitted wardrobes are in place.
This is not a new-build project. The townhouse was completed in 2000 and is described as key-ready and in good condition. No construction phases, developer commitments, or delivery schedules apply. The completion year means the property reflects building standards of that period, which buyers typically assess during survey and notary processes.
The property does not offer a private pool; swimming facilities are communal. No private garage details are provided in the available data. The house is part of a gated community with 24-hour security, which involves community rules and fees. As an existing home built in 2000, no developer warranties or new-build purchase structures apply.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A family needing four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with a ground-floor bedroom arrangement, can use the layout without modification. Buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave second home benefit from the gated setting, 24-hour security, and communal maintenance of gardens and pool, the private garden remains the owner's responsibility, but the shared areas are managed by the community. Golf players place two courses within about 2.6 km of the door, with views of the fairways from the garden itself. Households relocating to the coast year-round will find practical infrastructure close by: schools, including an international school roughly 2.6 km away, pharmacies, banks, and a commercial centre between San Pedro and the urbanisation. Buyers who prefer turnkey condition over renovation projects can move in directly, accepting that the interior finishes date from the 2000 construction period. The property suits those who value privacy and controlled access over direct beach proximity; the nearest sand is about 2.3 km as the crow flies, so the coast is a short drive rather than a walk. It fits less well for buyers wanting a private pool on their own plot, a sea-front position, or a new-build energy standard.
The documented finish level is that of a well-maintained home built in 2000, described as being in good condition. Floors are marble throughout, a standard feature of that construction era on this stretch of the coast and one that keeps cleaning simple in a sandy environment. Climate control is addressed from three directions: air conditioning units, a fireplace in the lounge, and underfloor heating in the bathrooms, the latter being a comfort feature during the cooler months, when average temperatures drop to around 12°C. Storage is handled through fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms. The kitchen is fully fitted. Windows in the bedrooms are shown with shutters in the available images, which helps regulate heat and light in a southwest-facing property. The property has two terraces: a covered terrace opening from the lounge and a private terrace connected to the garden, extending usable space across seasons. As an existing home, technical performance, including insulation values, electrical installation, and plumbing, is not certified to current new-build standards. Buyers routinely commission a technical survey before purchase to verify the state of installations after more than two decades of use. Community facilities include maintained gardens and a communal swimming pool managed by the residents' community.
The asking price is fixed at €995,000. This is an existing, key-ready home rather than a new-build development with a price list, so no unit variation or "from" pricing applies. The price reflects the property's position in an established gated community with golf views in the Marbella area, where roughly 800 housing transactions take place per year in the surrounding market. Buyers comparing options can weigh this price against new-build alternatives in the wider region, which typically start lower, for example from roughly €269,950 in Torre del Mar or from €321,000 in Estepona, though those projects differ in type, location, and land ownership. Availability depends on the seller's position; as an existing home, the purchase follows resale procedures rather than off-plan reservation steps.
Daily life in Isla de Guadalmina revolves around a low-traffic, gated setting where the golf course and community gardens frame the view rather than the street. The ground floor works as the social core of the house: the lounge and dining area connect through a covered terrace to the private garden, so indoor and outdoor use blend for much of the year. With a southwest orientation, the garden and terrace receive afternoon and evening sun, which suits both winter meals outside and summer evenings after the midday heat. The layout places one bedroom and a shower room on the ground floor, an arrangement that works for guests or for households wanting to avoid stairs. The upper floor holds three double bedrooms, with the master using its own bathroom and the other two sharing a family bathroom. Mornings are quiet in this kind of urbanisation; the surrounding streets carry resident traffic rather than through-traffic. Shopping and services cluster within about two kilometres, including roughly thirty restaurants, twelve pharmacies, eleven banks, and fourteen cafés, so errands can usually be combined into short trips. The Guadalmina commercial centre and San Pedro de Alcántara provide the larger shopping options. With 24-hour security at the gate, the community appeals to residents who value controlled access, including those who leave the house empty for extended periods. A car remains the practical mode of transport here; public transport exists, with eight lines and fifty stops in the wider area, but the distances to beach and town make driving the default for most households.
The surroundings combine residential calm with relatively dense everyday amenities. Within a two-kilometre radius, the area counts about thirty-one restaurants, fourteen cafés, twelve pharmacies, eleven banks, and two schools, which places most daily needs within a short drive or, for some, a cycle ride. The Guadalmina commercial centre sits directly nearby, and San Pedro de Alcántara provides the broader offer of a Spanish coastal town. Sports facilities are close: the Apolo sports centre is roughly 1.0 km away, with additional pool facilities around 1.4 km. For outdoor leisure, three viewpoints lie within about five kilometres, including Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos at 4.3 km. Electric-vehicle owners can reach the Supercharger in Estepona at about 5.6 km or the Marbella Supercharger at roughly 7.7 km. The area is flat, at 41 metres above sea level, so walking and cycling are unhindered by gradients. Public transport covers the wider area with eight lines and fifty stops, useful for occasional trips, though most residents rely on a car. The Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina is approximately 4.9 km away for boat-related services and waterfront dining.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Guadalmina Alta occupies the western edge of the Marbella municipality, between San Pedro de Alcántara and the boundary with Estepona. Marbella city centre, with roughly 148,000 inhabitants, lies about 11 km by direct distance to the east, while Estepona extends the coastline westward. The position places the property in the established golf-and-residential belt of the western Costa del Sol, a zone characterised by gated communities, courses, and international residents. Málaga, the provincial capital with about 579,000 inhabitants, is roughly 59 km away by direct distance. Access to both Marbella and Estepona gives residents two full-size towns within easy reach.
Distances in this section are straight-line measurements, and actual road distances are longer. The nearest beaches, Playa Atalaya, Playa Isdabe, and Playa de San Pedro, all lie about 2.3 km away, reachable in a few minutes by car. Golf is the closest amenity: El Campanario Golf Course is roughly 1.7 km away, with El Paraíso Golf Club at about 2.6 km. Marbella, with its full urban infrastructure, is approximately 11 km by direct distance; Málaga city and its airport lie around 59 km and 50 km respectively as the crow flies, meaning the airport is roughly a 45-minute to one-hour drive depending on traffic. Gibraltar Airport is an alternative at about 48 km straight-line. International schooling is available at The International School of Estepona, roughly 2.6 km away, and the British International School at about 9.1 km. A car is the practical necessity here; the gate-controlled community and the spread of amenities make driving the standard mode of daily transport.

The climate data points to a typical Mediterranean coastal regime: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 19.1°C. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months, concentrating beach use between late spring and early autumn. The property sits at 41 metres above sea level on flat terrain with a gradient of roughly 1.7% toward the coast, so no stairs or slopes complicate access to the house or the walkable surroundings. The southwest orientation of the property means the garden and terraces face the afternoon and evening sun; in summer this calls for shading on the covered terrace, while in winter it extends outdoor use. The fireplace and underfloor bathroom heating cover the cooler periods. For nature outings, several viewpoints lie within five kilometres, and the flat coastal plain makes walking and cycling straightforward in the immediate area.

Three beaches lie at approximately 2.3 km straight-line distance: Playa Atalaya, Playa Isdabe, and Playa de San Pedro de Alcántara. This stretch of coast offers a mix of quiet local beaches and the fuller facilities of San Pedro's seafront. Golf is the defining recreation of the immediate area, the property looks onto the Guadalmina course, with El Campanario at about 1.7 km and El Paraíso at roughly 2.6 km. Sports facilities include the Apolo centre at 1.0 km and pool facilities at about 1.4 km. For sailing and waterfront leisure, Puerto Deportivo José Banús lies around 4.9 km away, combining marina services with restaurants and shops. Hiking and scenic viewpoints, such as Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos at 4.3 km and Mirador del Tajo del Novio at 4.8 km, add walking options beyond the flat coastal strip.

Within the western Costa del Sol, this townhouse occupies a different market segment from the current new-build supply. Comparable new developments listed in the wider region start considerably lower: Aquamar in Torre del Mar from about €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from roughly €205,000, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from approximately €321,000. Those prices reflect smaller units, different locations further from the Marbella core, and the purchase structure of an off-plan or newly completed development. This property, at a fixed €995,000, is priced on the established resale market of the Marbella golf belt, where factors such as land tenure, community maturity, golf frontage, and proximity to San Pedro de Alcántara carry weight. The surrounding market records roughly 800 housing transactions per year, indicating an active but limited local turnover. Locationally, Guadalmina Alta sits closer to Marbella city, about 11 km by direct distance, than the Mijas and Torre del Mar alternatives, while Estepona's new-build stock competes on price rather than on distance to Marbella. The median provincial income of €16,450 signals that property values on this stretch of coast run well above the regional income base, driven largely by international buyers. For buyers weighing options, the choice comes down to trading new-build specification and lower entry prices elsewhere against a finished, four-bedroom home in an established, security-controlled community with direct golf frontage in the Marbella municipality. Resale purchases like this one also involve different procedures: no developer stage payments, but instead a notary process, community verification, and typically a technical survey of a building now over two decades old.
