This renovated three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is situated in the Sol y Paz community in Nueva Andalucía, one of Marbella's most established residential areas. The property measures 133 m², dates from 1970 and has been modernised in recent years. It offers a south-facing orientation, a private terrace with space for outdoor dining, four balconies on different sides, and access to communal gardens and a swimming pool within a gated complex. The asking price is fixed at €849,000. Puerto Banús marina lies approximately 1 km away as the crow flies, and the nearest beach around 2.6 km.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in Nueva Andalucía, directly west of Marbella town centre and inland of Puerto Banús. The marina is roughly 1 km away in a straight line, while the nearest beach at Playa Canina Ventura del Mar is 2.6 km. Shops, restaurants and schools are concentrated within a two-kilometre radius, and the A7 motorway provides regional access by car.
The layout serves a household needing three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an open-plan kitchen and living room connected to the balcony. Storage space is available inside the apartment, and a private terrace plus four balconies extend the living area outdoors. Air conditioning, fibre optic internet and full furnishing support both permanent residence and seasonal use.
This is an existing home, completed in 1970 and described as recently renovated and key-ready. No construction phase applies; the property can be transferred in its current condition. Buyers should account for the age of the building structure when arranging surveys, financing and insurance, as the renovation status covers the interior rather than the original build year.
The property does not include private parking; parking is on the street. There is no private pool or private garden, both are communal facilities shared within the gated complex. The home offers no sea view; views are limited to the garden, pool and street. The building dates from 1970, and completion of that year is an indicative record. No lift, garage or additional plot data is supplied.
This apartment matches several recognisable situations. A household relocating to the Marbella area for work or retirement that wants three bedrooms, two bathrooms and walkable access to shops will find the layout and location aligned with those needs. Buyers seeking a second home that can also generate rental income benefit from the community's explicit permission to rent out, a restriction that applies in many neighbouring complexes and directly affects rental feasibility. Purchasers who prioritise outdoor living may value the combination of a south-facing terrace, four balconies and a communal pool without the maintenance burden of a private villa. The fully furnished, renovated condition suits buyers who want to use the property quickly rather than manage a refurbishment project abroad. Conversely, the property is less suitable for those requiring a private garage, a private pool or an unobstructed sea view, since none of these are part of the offer. The 1970 build year may also matter to buyers focused on newer construction standards or modern energy performance. In short, the profile fits practical, location-driven buyers; buyers seeking new-build specification or seclusion would need to look elsewhere.
The interior has been recently renovated and is delivered in excellent condition, fully furnished, with a fully fitted kitchen and an open-plan connection between kitchen and living room. Technical features include air conditioning for climate control, fibre optic internet and WiFi readiness, which supports both remote work and streaming. Storage is available within the apartment, a practical detail in a market where many flats of this age lack dedicated storage rooms. The building envelope dates from 1970, which means the underlying structure, plumbing routes and communal elements reflect that era even where interiors have been modernised; an independent technical survey is the standard instrument for assessing this. Windows open onto four balconies with different orientations, providing cross-ventilation through the apartment. The communal areas, gardens and swimming pool, are maintained by the community, and their condition is managed collectively rather than individually. Utilities are connected, with electricity in place. In summary, the finishing level is that of a modernised resale property: renovated interiors and contemporary services inside a 1970s structure, a combination common in central Nueva Andalucía where land values favour renovation over redevelopment.
The asking price is fixed at €849,000 for this key-ready apartment; it is not part of a new-build price list and should not be read as a starting price. The price covers a 133 m² home with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a private terrace, communal pool and garden access, sold fully furnished with a fitted kitchen. As an existing property in a community that permits rentals, it can function as a permanent residence, a second home or a rental asset. Buyers should budget separately for community fees, IBI and other ownership taxes, as these are not included in the listed price. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status.
Daily life in Sol y Paz revolves around a small, organised gated community with shared gardens and a swimming pool. The apartment's south-facing orientation brings daylight into the main living spaces through most of the day, and the open-plan kitchen and living room open directly onto a balcony. Four balconies on different orientations allow morning and late-afternoon use at different times. The terrace is large enough for a dining table, barbecue and outdoor lounge, which extends the practical living season well beyond the summer months. The immediate area is residential but densely serviced: within two kilometres there are roughly seventy restaurants, ten cafés, three pharmacies, four banks and a dentist. Centro Plaza, with shops and everyday amenities, sits close by, and Puerto Banús marina is about one kilometre away in a straight line. The environment is busier than inland villages, tourism infrastructure includes 52 hotels in the wider area, so the neighbourhood carries activity year-round rather than shutting down off-season. Public transport covers the area with ten lines and fifty stops, which reduces car dependency for local trips, although the A7 remains the main artery for regional journeys. The flat terrain, with a gradient of only 0.2 per cent towards the sea, makes walking and cycling realistic options. For households combining school-age children with work or leisure, there are 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools recorded in the surrounding area, including the British International School about 3.8 km away.
The apartment's position places the essentials of Costa del Sol daily life within a short radius. Centro Plaza provides shopping immediately nearby, and the density of services is high: within two kilometres there are 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist. Healthcare is covered by five health centres recorded in the area. For education, 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools serve the wider region, including international options such as the British International School at 3.8 km. Recreational infrastructure is dense: Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina sits 1 km away as the crow flies, and three golf clubs, The Range at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella at 3.1 km, surround the neighbourhood, which is why Nueva Andalucía is often called the Golf Valley. Sports facilities include Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km. Road distances are longer than straight-line figures, so a car remains convenient for regional trips, but the flat terrain and 50 public transport stops support local mobility without one.
The map shows the apartment's position within Nueva Andalucía, between the Golf Valley courses to the north and Puerto Banús marina to the south. Beaches, schools and Marbella centre are marked with straight-line distances; actual road distances are longer.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Nueva Andalucía occupies the zone between Marbella's town centre (7 km straight-line) and San Pedro Alcántara, immediately inland of Puerto Banús. Within the Costa del Sol it functions as a mature, service-dense residential district rather than a resort or a village, with 4,743 housing transactions recorded per year in the surrounding market, a measure of liquidity that matters for resale. Málaga lies 54 km to the east and Algeciras 59 km to the west, placing the property roughly midway along the coast's western stretch.
The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km in a straight line, with Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km. Marbella centre is 7 km away as the crow flies, and Málaga city 54 km; Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is approximately 45 km in a straight line, with Gibraltar Airport (GIB) around 52 km in the opposite direction. Actual driving distances exceed these figures. Public transport is comparatively strong for the Costa del Sol: ten lines and fifty stops serve the area, connecting Nueva Andalucía with Marbella, San Pedro and coastal towns along the A7. An electric vehicle charging point, the Marbella Supercharger, is 2.3 km away. Within the neighbourhood itself, the flat gradient of 0.2 per cent towards the sea makes walking to Centro Plaza, restaurants and the marina realistic for most residents.

The climate data shows average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 19.2°C. The swimming season lasts about six months, during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20°C. Elevation is low, 10 metres above sea level, and the terrain is essentially flat, with a gradient of 0.2 per cent towards the coast. This means no hill climbing between the apartment and the beach, a practical distinction from many hillside developments further east and inland. Sunshine hours follow the typical Costa del Sol pattern, supporting year-round use of the terrace and balconies. The proximity of the Sierra Blanca mountains behind Marbella shelters the coastline from northern weather systems, which contributes to the region's relatively mild winters compared with other Spanish coastal areas.

Coastal recreation is anchored by several beaches within a three-to-four kilometre band: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.6 km), Playa de Nagüeles (2.7 km) and Playa de Casablanca (3.5 km), all reachable in a short drive or a longer walk along the flat coastal terrain. Golf dominates the inland recreation offer: The Range golf lessons facility at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km form part of the Golf Valley cluster. Waterfront leisure centres on Puerto Deportivo José Banús, one kilometre away, with two further marinas, Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen and Marina la Bajadilla, at 5.3 and 6.7 km. For land-based sport, Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km), Rocodromo climbing centre (3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km) cover different disciplines. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km offers a nearby walking destination along the coast.

Within the western Costa del Sol, this apartment competes in a different segment from new-build projects along the same coastline. Comparable developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000) all offer new construction at markedly lower entry prices, but in locations further from Marbella's central stretch and with longer travel times to Puerto Banús and its amenity cluster. At €849,000 for 133 m², this property is priced at roughly €6,380 per square metre, a figure that reflects position rather than build year: the buyer pays for a renovated home inside the Golf Valley, Puerto Banús zone, where land values and transaction volumes (4,743 per year in the wider market) are among the highest on the coast. The trade-off is structural: the 1970 building carries the construction standards of its era, and communal facilities replace the private pools and gardens of villa alternatives in the same price band further inland. Buyers comparing options should weigh the immediacy of a furnished, rental-permitted resale property against the specification and warranties of new-build projects in less central locations. Rental flexibility is a differentiating factor, since many communities in the Marbella area restrict holiday letting; explicit permission here affects both use and potential yield. The location also offers something the cheaper eastern and western alternatives do not: walking access to a full urban amenity base, ten bus lines and 50 stops, and three golf clubs within 3.1 km.
