This elevated ground floor apartment is situated in Aldea Blanca, an established residential community in Nueva Andalucía, on the western side of Marbella. The property measures 162 m² and offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two terraces, a fitted kitchen with utility room and a fireplace. The complex includes communal gardens, several swimming pools and 24-hour security. Puerto Banús and its marina lie approximately one kilometre away as the crow flies, while golf courses and beaches are within three kilometres. The asking price is fixed at €995,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment lies in Nueva Andalucía, roughly 7 km from central Marbella and about 1 km from Puerto Deportivo José Banús. Golf courses such as Real Club de Golf Las Brisas sit within 2.3 km, and the nearest beach is 2.6 km away in a straight line. Local roads are flat, with an elevation of just 10 metres above sea level.
The layout combines a living room with fireplace, a separate dining area, a fitted kitchen with utility room and two terraces. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom; a second bathroom serves guests. Communal pools, gardens and 24-hour security within a gated complex support both permanent residence and holiday use.
This is an existing property, completed in 1984 and currently key-ready. It is not part of a new construction phase, so there is no delivery schedule or off-plan waiting period. Buyers can inspect the actual finished condition, including the marble flooring, fitted wardrobes and the partially fitted kitchen as it stands today.
The property has two bedrooms and two bathrooms within 162 m², which sets the scale for households. There is no private pool; swimming facilities are communal. The kitchen is partially fitted. The building dates from 1984, so construction standards correspond to that period rather than current new-build regulations.
This apartment suits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a permanent residence in Marbella will find the two-bathroom layout practical for receiving family, while the 24-hour security and gated grounds reduce concerns about absences. Buyers wanting a second home with rental-free flexibility benefit from the key-ready status: no construction phase, no off-plan uncertainty, and the ability to inspect everything before committing.It also fits households for whom walkability matters more than square metres. With ten bus lines and fifty stops in the area, plus shops, banks and pharmacies within two kilometres, daily errands do not strictly require a car, relevant for older buyers or those who prefer not to drive in Spain.The profile fits less well for buyers needing three or more bedrooms, a private pool, or contemporary energy performance standards. The 1984 construction date means the buyer should evaluate insulation, windows and systems during a technical inspection, as with any resale property of this age. Those seeking brand-new finishes should compare new-build options in Estepona, Mijas or Torre del Mar, which trade distance from Marbella's centre for lower entry prices.
The interior specification includes marble flooring throughout, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms and a fireplace in the living room. The kitchen is partially fitted and includes a stove and dishwasher according to the photographic record; the utility room provides space for laundry equipment and additional storage. The two terraces extend the floor plan outdoors, with the main terrace accessible directly from the living room and the second from the dining area.As an existing home completed in 1984, the technical baseline differs from current regulations. Buyers should verify the condition of the electrical installation, plumbing, window glazing and thermal insulation, none of which are specified in the available data. The fireplace suggests a conventional chimney rather than a modern low-consumption heating system; the data lists no air conditioning, underfloor heating or aerothermal installation.The community-level features are well documented: several communal swimming pools, maintained gardens and 24-hour security, seven days a week, within a gated complex. These shared facilities are managed collectively, so their upkeep depends on community arrangements and fees. The south-west orientation, sea views and garden views are structural characteristics of the unit's position that no renovation can replicate, whereas kitchen and bathroom fittings can be updated by a new owner if desired.
The asking price is fixed at €995,000. This is an existing, key-ready home, so there is no price list or tiered pricing; the amount applies to this specific apartment with its 162 m² of living space, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two terraces and position within the Aldea Blanca community. Buyers comparing against new-build developments in the wider region should note that those projects advertise from-prices for the cheapest unit type, typically apartments of smaller size and different specification. The price here reflects a consolidated Marbella location, walkable to Puerto Banús, rather than a front-line or inland alternative. Annual community costs for pools, gardens and security are payable through the community fees.
Daily life in this apartment follows the rhythm of a mature, low-rise residential community. The entrance hall opens into a living room where the fireplace acts as a focal point during the cooler months; from December to February average monthly temperatures range around 12°C, so a wood-burning hearth has practical value rather than being purely decorative. The living room gives onto one terrace, and the adjacent dining area opens onto a second, giving two outdoor spaces with a south-west orientation. This positioning means afternoon and early evening sun, which suits outdoor dining; the photos of the patio seating and dining table reflect that use.The separate kitchen with its utility room keeps household work out of view of the living spaces, a layout typical of Andalusian residential building from the 1980s but still functional for year-round living. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, and the en-suite arrangement of the master bedroom reduces morning congestion for a household of two.Within the complex, the communal gardens and several pools extend the usable living area beyond the 162 m² interior. The gated setting with round-the-clock security shapes how the community feels: quiet, green and largely residential, with little through-traffic. Outside the gates, the surrounding streets of Nueva Andalucía supply restaurants, cafés, banks and pharmacies within two kilometres. Puerto Banús, one kilometre away as the crow flies, adds a marina, boutiques and a busier coastal atmosphere whenever residents want it.
The immediate surroundings are residential and green, with the community's own gardens forming a buffer from street noise. Within two kilometres, the data lists 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks, 3 pharmacies and a dentist, which covers routine needs without driving into Marbella town. For families considering longer stays, the area counts 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, with the British International School 3.8 km away as the crow flies.Healthcare access includes five health centres in the wider area. Sporting facilities are close: Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km, a climbing wall (Rocodromo) at 3.6 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km, alongside golf practice at The Range, 1.9 km away.Tourism shapes the seasonal character of the neighbourhood: 52 hotels with nearly 12,800 beds mean summer months bring noticeably more visitors and traffic, particularly around Puerto Banús. Outside high season, from October to April, the area reverts to a quieter residential pace. Housing turnover in the area is substantial, with 4,743 transactions per year recorded, indicating an active resale market rather than a static one.
The map shows the apartment's position between Puerto Banús to the south and the golf valley to the north. Beaches lie to the southeast within three kilometres, with the flat coastal plain making all marked points of interest reachable on foot or by bike. Marbella centre sits seven kilometres east along the coast road.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Nueva Andalucía occupies the coastal strip immediately west of Marbella centre and north of Puerto Banús, placing this apartment between two of the coast's focal points: the marina at 1 km and Marbella's historic centre at 7 km. Further afield, Algeciras lies 59 km to the west and Málaga city 54 km to the east, making the location comparatively central on the Costa del Sol. Within the region's hierarchy, Nueva Andalucía functions as Marbella's established residential quarter, quieter than the seafront, more consolidated than newer developments further west in Estepona.
The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km away in a straight line, with Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km; the terrain to the coast is essentially flat, with a gradient of 0.2%, so walking or cycling is realistic. Puerto Deportivo José Banús is 1.0 km away, with two further marinas at 5.3 km and 6.7 km. Marbella centre is 7 km away as the crow flies, and Málaga city 54 km.Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is approximately 45 km away in a straight line, and Gibraltar Airport (GIB) about 52 km, giving a choice of two airports within an hour's drive. Public transport consists of 10 lines and 50 stops, which connects the area to Marbella and San Pedro de Alcántara without a car for many journeys. An EV Supercharger is available 2.3 km away for electric vehicle owners. Road access runs along the A-7 coastal corridor; buyers should expect seasonal congestion around Puerto Banús in July and August.

The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 19.2°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. This is a classic Costa del Sol profile: mild winters that keep the apartment usable year-round, and warm but rarely extreme summers moderated by the sea. The swimming season lasts six months, during which sea temperatures reach at least 20°C, roughly May through October.The elevation of 10 metres above sea level and the 0.2% gradient to the coast mean the setting is flat, no hillside stairs or steep walks, unlike many inland Nueva Andalucía developments positioned on the mountain slopes. This has practical consequences for cycling, walking to the beach and accessibility for older residents.The fireplace in the living room addresses the cooler evenings of December to February, when temperatures drop toward 12°C average. Beyond the community gardens, natural viewing points such as Mirador del Muelle de Honor at 1.2 km offer sea views within walking distance, and the golf courses of the Valle del Golf form the green backdrop to the north of the neighbourhood.

Three beaches lie within 3.5 km as the crow flies: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.6 km), Playa de Nagüeles (2.7 km) and Playa de Casablanca (3.5 km). The flat approach makes these reachable on foot or by bicycle from the apartment, which is unusual for Nueva Andalucía, where many properties sit well above the coast road.Golf is the area's defining recreation. Real Club de Golf Las Brisas, one of the Costa del Sol's established championship courses, is 2.3 km away, Magna Marbella Golf 3.1 km, and a practice range at 1.9 km. Together these place the apartment in the heart of Marbella's golf valley.For other sports, Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km) offers municipal facilities, Rocodromo (3.6 km) covers climbing, and CrossFit Marbella operates at 3.8 km. Puerto Banús, one kilometre away, adds maritime recreation, waterfront dining and people-watching in season. The combination of beach, golf and marina within a four-kilometre radius defines the leisure profile of this location.

Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this property occupies a different segment from the new-build developments commonly advertised in the region. Comparable projects listed, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000), are all off-plan or recent constructions located 40 to 80 kilometres east or west of Marbella. Their entry prices reflect smaller unit sizes, earlier construction phases and less central positions on the coast.The €995,000 asking price for this apartment buys something else: a consolidated address within Marbella's municipal boundary, one kilometre from Puerto Banús and within walking distance of the golf valley. In the regional hierarchy, Nueva Andalucía sits above Estepona and Mijas in terms of proximity to Marbella's established amenities, and the transaction data, 4,743 sales per year in the area, indicates a deep resale market with regular turnover, unlike emerging residential zones where the stock is mostly new construction.Buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives are therefore comparing two different propositions: a finished 1984 apartment in a prime established community with mature gardens and security, versus new construction with modern energy standards but a commute to Marbella centre. The 1984 construction date carries implications for insulation and installations that a buyer should assess technically, and the partially fitted kitchen signals likely updating costs. Against this stand the location, which cannot be replicated further east at this price point, and the immediacy of a key-ready purchase with no construction risk.
