This one-bedroom apartment of 53 m² is located in central Nueva Andalucía, within walking distance of Centro Plaza, restaurants, a supermarket and a pharmacy. Puerto Banús and the beach are approximately a ten-minute walk away. The property was completed in 1982, has been modified internally and is ready for immediate occupation. It is sold furnished, with split air conditioning, a south-east orientation and views over the sea and La Concha mountain. The gated community includes parking and a communal pool. The asking price is fixed at €298,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in the heart of Nueva Andalucía, in a commercial urban setting with shops, restaurants and services on the doorstep. Puerto Deportivo José Banús lies 1.0 km away as the crow flies, and the nearest beach roughly 2.6 km. Marbella centre is 7 km straight-line, and Málaga airport approximately 45 km.
The layout currently divides the original bedroom into two small rooms, which can be restored to a single bedroom. Air conditioning provides hot and cold air. The gated community offers parking on its grounds, a large communal pool and a children's pool. The terrace faces south-east and looks out over sea and mountains.
This is not a new-build project. The apartment dates from 1982 and is key-ready, having undergone modifications and being in good condition for immediate use. It is sold including furniture. Any completion or refurbishment dates mentioned by sellers remain indicative.
The apartment has no tourist licence and the community does not permit holiday rentals, which limits short-term letting use. With 53 m² and a divided bedroom, space is compact for a household of more than two. The building's age of over forty years means standards differ from modern new-build specifications.
This property suits a buyer seeking a compact, walkable base in Nueva Andalucía at a price point that is unusual for this location. Recognisable situations include: a single person or couple wanting a second home near Puerto Banús with shops and restaurants at walking distance; a buyer planning long stays or permanent residence who values community facilities such as the pool and on-site parking; or someone wanting a small lock-up-and-leave property with sea and mountain views. The divided bedroom could work for a small family with a child, or for someone needing a work-from-home corner, and the option to restore the original single bedroom gives flexibility in layout. The absence of a tourist licence and the community ban on holiday rentals mean the apartment does not fit a short-term rental investment strategy. Buyers intending to generate income through platforms for holiday lets should look elsewhere. Equally, a household needing more than one bathroom or substantial living space will find 53 m² limiting. For long-term rental or personal use, however, the location, condition and services make this a practical option for buyers whose priority is position over square metres.
The apartment originates from 1982 and has since undergone modifications. The seller describes it as being in good condition and ready for occupation, sold with furniture included. Interior images show an open-plan living and dining area, a bathroom with sink, toilet, bidet and a tub with mosaic tiling, and bedrooms with wardrobes, a desk and mirrored fittings, an inventory consistent with a functional, lived-in finish rather than a recent premium renovation. Climate control consists of split air-conditioning units providing both hot and cold air, which covers year-round temperature management without central heating. Buyers should note that a 1982 building will not match contemporary new-build standards in areas such as insulation, glazing or energy performance, and an independent technical survey is the standard way to verify the actual state of installations, plumbing and electrics before purchase. The community itself is gated, which affects access control, and includes parking within the grounds. The communal pool and children's pool are shared facilities maintained by the community. In short, the finishing level should be assessed as that of a well-kept resale unit: usable immediately, with furniture transferable, but with the age-related characteristics typical of a development of this period.
The apartment has a fixed asking price of €298,000. This is an existing home from 1982, sold furnished and in a condition ready for occupation. At 53 m² with one bedroom and one bathroom, the price reflects the central Nueva Andalucía location close to Puerto Banús rather than the size of the property. Comparable new-build projects elsewhere on the coast, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950 or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, show a similar price bracket, though those concern new construction rather than a resale unit. Availability is immediate, subject to the usual purchase process.
Daily life around this apartment is organised around walking distances. Centro Plaza, with its shops and eateries, lies within a short stroll, and the same applies to restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies and cafés in the immediate vicinity, the area counts 69 restaurants and 10 cafés within 2 km. The morning routine can therefore be run on foot, without depending on a car for groceries or an evening meal out. Puerto Banús, about a ten-minute walk according to the seller, adds marina-side dining and people-watching, with the marina itself only 1.0 km away as the crow flies. The terrace, oriented south-east, receives morning and midday sun and offers a view over the sea and La Concha mountain, a backdrop that changes character through the day and across seasons. Inside, the divided bedroom arrangement suits either a second sleep space or a home corner, and can be returned to its original single-bedroom layout. The communal pool and the separate children's pool provide seasonal swimming without private maintenance. The surrounding urbanisation is busier than rural settings: this is a town location within a commercial area, which means convenience and activity rather than quiet seclusion. For residents who want services, the port and the beach all within reach on foot, the location supports a car-light lifestyle, although a parking space within the community is available for excursions further afield.
The surrounding area is dense with amenities: within 2 km there are 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist. Five health centres serve the locality, and education options include 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, plus international schools such as the British International School at 3.8 km straight-line. Public transport covers the area with 10 lines and 50 stops, making it possible to reach Marbella and other towns without a car. Sports facilities nearby include Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km, Rocodromo at 3.6 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km, all as the crow flies, with actual road distances somewhat longer. The neighbourhood sits at 10 m above sea level with a gradient to the beach of only 0.2%, so the terrain is flat and walking or cycling to the coast is easy. Tourism is a significant factor here, 52 hotels with nearly 12,800 beds, meaning the area is lively in high season and quieter, though not deserted, in winter. Housing transactions in the area number around 4,743 per year, indicating an active resale market.
The map shows the apartment's position in Nueva Andalucía, immediately north of Puerto Banús. Visible nearby are the golf courses of the Golf Valley, the marina at 1.0 km and the beaches along the coast at roughly 2.6 km straight-line. Marbella lies 7 km east.

The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 19.2°C and monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, supporting outdoor life year-round. The swimming season lasts around six months, with sea temperatures of 20°C or above. The apartment's elevation of 10 m above sea level and the flat gradient to the beach mean no climbing is involved in reaching the coast. The setting combines sea and mountains: the terrace looks towards La Concha, the ridge that defines the Marbella backdrop, while the sea view opens towards the coastline. Sunshine hours in the region support terrace use across most of the year, with the south-east orientation placing the brightest hours in the morning and early afternoon. Local public holidays number 32 per year, reflecting the Andalusian calendar of fiestas and observances.

Within the Costa del Sol, this apartment occupies a different segment from the comparable new-build projects listed. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, all new constructions on the eastern and western flanks of the coast. At €298,000 fixed, this resale unit in Nueva Andalucía is priced between those benchmarks, but the comparison is not straightforward: the buyer here pays for an established, central location adjacent to Puerto Banús rather than for new construction standards and modern specifications. Torre del Mar and Mijas are generally lower-priced markets with quieter, more residential profiles, while Estepona sits somewhat further from the Marbella-Puerto Banús core. Nueva Andalucía itself is one of the most sought-after addresses on the coast, known for its Golf Valley courses, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km straight-line, and for its proximity to the marina, 1.0 km away. The trade-off is clear: 53 m² of 1982 construction versus larger, newer units further from this hub. The prohibition on holiday rentals also distinguishes it from many coastal investments aimed at the letting market. Buyers comparing options should therefore weigh location intensity against build age and space, and consider that resale stock in this price band close to Puerto Banús is limited, as the seller notes, though the specific rental restriction narrows the pool of suitable uses to personal residence or long-term letting.
