A fully refurbished two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in the La Maestranza urbanisation of Nueva Andalucía, on the western side of Marbella. The property measures 74 m² of living space and has one bathroom with a walk-in shower. Terraces on both the east and west sides provide sun exposure throughout the day. The gated complex includes three communal pools, one of which is heated. Puerto Banús marina lies approximately one kilometre away as the crow flies. Built in 2002 and completed to key-ready standard, the asking price is fixed at €500,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
La Maestranza sits within Nueva Andalucía, between Marbella town centre at roughly 7 km and Puerto Banús at about 1 km in a straight line. The immediate area is an established residential urbanisation within walking distance of shops, restaurants and services. Golf courses such as Real Club de Golf Las Brisas begin at around 2.3 km, and the nearest beach at Playa Canina Ventura del Mar is 2.6 km away by direct line.
The apartment functions as a compact two-bedroom home with dual terraces, oriented east and west, so residents can follow or avoid the sun as preferred. Air conditioning and a fully fitted open-plan kitchen support year-round use. The communal pools, one heated, extend the usable season. Optional furniture allows buyers to move in without a separate furnishing project, subject to negotiation.
This is not a new-build development but an existing apartment completed in 2002 and since fully refurbished and modernised. Construction status is key-ready, meaning the property can be transferred in its current finished state. Delivery dates for existing homes follow the purchase process rather than a developer schedule, and any completion timeline quoted during negotiations remains indicative.
The property offers one bathroom only and 74 m² of living space, which limits its suitability for larger households. There is no private pool; swimming facilities are communal. Views face the courtyard rather than the sea. No private parking space or storage room is listed in the available data. These are factual constraints that buyers should weigh against the asking price.

This apartment fits a buyer seeking a turn-key property rather than a renovation project: the refurbishment has been carried out, the kitchen is fitted, and the bathroom has a modern walk-in shower. A couple or small family using it as a second home benefits from the dual terraces and communal pools without the maintenance obligations of a private garden or pool. Investors may note the rental dynamics of Nueva Andalucía, where proximity to Puerto Banús and golf courses supports demand for short-stay accommodation, although rental returns depend on licensing and management choices not covered by the available data. The property suits those who prioritise location and walkable amenities over interior space, since 74 m² with one bathroom places limits on household size and guest capacity. Buyers wanting sea views, a private pool or a designated parking space would need to look elsewhere or budget for alternatives. The setting works well for anyone who values being able to walk to restaurants, the marina and shops, and who accepts a courtyard view in exchange for a quieter, greener immediate environment. Permanent residents benefit from the nearby health centres, schools and the ten public transport lines with fifty stops recorded in the area, which reduce dependence on a car for commuting or school runs.
The apartment has been fully refurbished and modernised, which in practice means updated surfaces, fittings and systems compared with its original 2002 construction. The photographic material shows a contemporary bathroom finished with marble-effect tiling and a walk-in shower, a living room in a finished decorative state, and a twin bedroom with balcony access. The kitchen is fully fitted and arranged open-plan with the living area, a layout common in recent renovations of this building era. Climate control consists of air conditioning, and the terraces on both sides allow natural cross-ventilation through the apartment, which reduces reliance on mechanical cooling in the shoulder months. As a ground-floor unit, the apartment avoids stair and lift dependence, a practical point for older residents or families with small children. The communal grounds, including the courtyard fountain and planting shown in the images, indicate a maintained shared environment; upkeep is typically funded through community fees, which buyers should verify during due diligence. The building dates from 2002, so the underlying structure, insulation standards and glazing reflect that period rather than current new-build regulations. The refurbishment level visible in the interior suggests the previous owner invested in the finishing layer, but the available data does not specify the technical scope, such as electrical rewiring, plumbing replacement or window upgrades. Buyers are advised to request a technical survey to confirm which elements were renewed.

Daily life in this apartment centres on the ground-floor layout and its two terraces. The east-facing terrace catches morning light, suitable for breakfast outdoors, while the west side takes the afternoon and early evening sun, extending usable hours on the terrace for much of the year. The open-plan kitchen connects directly to the living space, which suits both permanent residence and shorter holiday stays. The courtyard setting, visible in the photos with a fountain and mature planting, gives the complex an inward, green character that reduces street noise despite the urban surroundings. The urbanisation is gated, which adds a layer of control over access. With three communal pools, including one heated, swimming is possible beyond the roughly six-month natural season when sea and pool water stays above 20°C. Practically, the location places daily services within a short radius: the surrounding 2 km contain dozens of restaurants, cafés, banks and pharmacies, so errands rarely require a long trip. Puerto Banús, about a kilometre away as the crow flies, functions as the local anchor for dining, shopping and the marina. A car is convenient for beach trips and golf, given the 2.6 km distance to the nearest sand, but many daily needs can be managed on foot. The area is busiest in summer due to tourism, and quieter outside the season, which affects both street activity and the atmosphere within the complex.
The immediate surroundings of La Maestranza combine residential calm with exceptional service density. Within a 2 km radius the area counts 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks and 3 pharmacies, meaning that dining out and daily errands are a matter of minutes on foot. For families, the wider area offers 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, plus international options such as the British International School at 3.8 km straight-line. Healthcare is covered by five health centres in the vicinity, and a dentist is located within the 2 km zone. The recreational infrastructure is a defining feature: three golf facilities lie within about 3 km, including The Range golf lessons at 1.9 km and Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km, making early-morning rounds practical. Puerto Deportivo José Banus is roughly 1 km away as the crow flies, so evening walks to the marina are realistic, while the seafront beaches of Playa Canina Ventura del Mar and Playa de Nagüeles sit between 2.6 and 2.7 km from the door. Sports facilities include Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km. Public transport in the area consists of 10 lines serving 50 stops, which supports car-free living for routine trips, though coastal excursions are easier with a vehicle.

Nueva Andalucía occupies the coastal strip immediately west of Marbella and immediately north of Puerto Banús, placing this apartment in one of the most central positions on the western Costa del Sol. Marbella centre at 7 km and Estepona further west frame the local hierarchy of resorts, while Málaga at 54 km provides the provincial capital and main airport connection. The location balances resort-town amenities, golf infrastructure and year-round services within a compact radius.
Distances below are straight-line, as the crow flies; road distances are somewhat longer. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km away on flat terrain, a gradient of only 0.2%, so cycling or a short drive covers the route easily. Marbella town centre is 7 km away, offering full urban services and the marina at Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen at 5.3 km. Málaga, with 579,076 inhabitants and the region's main rail and cultural infrastructure, is 54 km distant. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport lies approximately 45 km away by direct line, and Gibraltar airport about 52 km, giving a choice of two international gateways. For electric vehicle owners, the Marbella Supercharger is 2.3 km away. Access by car is straightforward via the coastal A-7/AP-7 corridor that links the whole Costa del Sol, and the ten local bus lines with fifty stops provide everyday public transport within Nueva Andalucía and towards Marbella and San Pedro.

Nueva Andalucía at this location sits at approximately 10 m above sea level on flat terrain, so walking and cycling involve no meaningful inclines. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 19.2°C and monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest. This pattern supports outdoor terrace use for most of the year, which suits the apartment's dual east-west orientation. The swimming season, defined by water temperatures at or above 20°C, lasts around six months, and the heated communal pool effectively extends this period outside the natural season. Rainfall is concentrated in the cooler months, with long dry summers typical of the southern Spanish coast. The flat coastal strip means no altitude-related exposure, and the courtyard setting provides shade and greenery immediately outside the door. For residents sensitive to heat, air conditioning plus the option of afternoon shade on the east terrace give practical cooling strategies during July and August.

The nearest stretch of sand is Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 2.6 km straight-line, followed by Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km, giving a choice of three beaches within a short drive or cycle. The coastline here forms part of the Marbella beach chain, well served by chiringuitos and water access. Golf is the strongest recreational draw of the immediate area: The Range golf lessons facility is 1.9 km away, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas 2.3 km, and Magna Marbella Golf 3.1 km, all within the valley known as Golf Valley for its concentration of courses. Puerto Deportivo José Banus, at roughly 1 km, provides marina-based leisure including waterfront dining and boat trips. Land sports are covered by Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km, a climbing gym at 3.6 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km. For quieter outings, the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint lies 1.2 km away, suitable for short evening walks.

Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this apartment competes primarily on location rather than space. Comparable new-build projects listed in the region include Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,950). Those developments offer modern construction standards and often more square metres per euro, but they sit in locations further from the Marbella, Puerto Banús core. At €500,000 for 74 m², this property is priced at roughly €6,760 per square metre, a level that reflects Nueva Andalucía's established position between Puerto Banús, the Golf Valley courses and Marbella town. Buyers weighing alternatives should consider the trade-off explicitly: eastern and western Costa del Sol new-builds deliver newer building fabric, parking and community facilities for a lower entry price, whereas this apartment delivers a refurbished, immediately usable home inside a mature urbanisation with 69 restaurants, multiple beaches and three golf clubs within a few kilometres. Marbella's housing market records around 4,743 transactions per year, indicating an active resale environment that supports liquidity. The apartment's ground-floor position and courtyard orientation trade sea views for quiet and level access, a distinction that matters more to some buyers than interior specification. Median provincial income of €16,450 per year also signals that the local market is driven substantially by international and second-home demand rather than domestic purchasing power, which shapes both pricing and seasonal occupancy patterns in Nueva Andalucía.
