This key-ready apartment is situated in Nueva Andalucía, on the western side of Marbella, approximately one kilometre as the crow flies from Puerto Banús marina. The property offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 120 m² of living space within a gated community built in 2004, complete with communal pools, gardens, a parking space and a storage room. The home sits on the first floor of a lift-served building with a west-facing orientation, overlooking the community gardens and pool. The asking price is fixed at €450,000. The surrounding area combines residential calm with immediate access to golf courses, beaches and the leisure offer of Puerto Banús.
Within the Costa del Sol market, Nueva Andalucía occupies a distinctive middle position: more established and service-dense than the newer eastern developments around Estepona and Torre del Mar, yet considerably cheaper per square metre than frontline beach or golf-frontage properties in Marbella and Puerto Banús themselves. At €450,000 for 120 m², this apartment translates to roughly €3,750 per m² of living space, a figure consistent with the resale market in the district's gated communities, where 4,743 housing transactions per year are recorded province-wide in the source data. Comparing with the listed new-build alternatives illustrates the regional spread: 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. Those projects sit 40 to 80 km further along the coast, in areas with a lower density of golf and marina infrastructure but newer construction standards and longer delivery timelines. The trade-off for a buyer is therefore between newer build quality at a lower entry price further east, and the immediate location value of Nueva Andalucía, one kilometre from Puerto Banús, three golf courses within 3.1 km, and a flat 2.6 km route to the beach. Marbella centre at 7 km and Málaga Airport at approximately 45 km straight-line complete a connectivity profile that few sub-€500,000 listings on the coast can match in terms of proximity to established leisure infrastructure. The 2004 construction date is the main differentiator against new-build competitors: buyers prioritising modern energy performance and developer warranties will look east, while those prioritising location and move-in readiness will find the equation reversed here.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment lies in Nueva Andalucía, an established residential urbanisation bordering Puerto Banús at roughly one kilometre straight-line distance. Marbella centre is 7 km away, while Málaga and its airport can be reached via the A-7 coastal road. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, sits 2.6 km away as the crow flies, and several golf courses operate within a 3 km radius.
The layout serves households needing three bedrooms and two bathrooms across 120 m² of living space, with an additional 15 m² of built area. A west-facing terrace catches afternoon and evening sun, and the communal pool and children's pool provide outdoor space without private maintenance. A parking space and storage room within the community cover practical storage and car needs.
This is an existing home completed in 2004 and described as key-ready, meaning no construction phase or delivery date applies. The building has been maintained in good condition according to the listing data. Buyers can complete a purchase and move in directly, subject to the standard Spanish notarial process.
The property does not include a private pool, private garden or sea view; the pool and garden are communal, and the outlook is onto community grounds. There is no mention of a private parking garage beyond the single assigned space, and the home is an apartment on the first floor rather than a villa. Built in 2004, the construction predates current new-build efficiency standards.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family needing three bedrooms and two bathrooms for year-round living benefits from the school provision in the area and the flat, service-dense surroundings. Retirees or part-year residents seeking a lock-and-leave base will find the gated community, lift access and communal maintenance practical, while the first-floor position avoids long stair climbs. Buyers who value proximity to Puerto Banús, for its marina, dining and 52 hotels' worth of surrounding infrastructure, without living in the middle of the busiest zone get a one-kilometre buffer as the crow flies. Golf players can reach The Range at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km, making a car journey of only a few minutes. The home suits buyers who accept communal rather than private outdoor space in exchange for a lower entry price relative to detached properties in the same district. It is less suited to those wanting a private pool, direct sea views or a plot of land, since none of these form part of the offering. The 2004 construction date and 120 m² footprint also position it as a mid-sized family apartment rather than a compact holiday studio or a large villa. Buyers planning renovation work should budget separately, as the listing describes good condition but not a recent refurbishment.
The apartment was completed in 2004 and is described in the listing as maintained in good condition. Climate control is a clear strength of the technical specification: air conditioning (including cold A/C), central electric heating with a hot/cold pump, and underfloor heating in the bathrooms provide year-round temperature management, which is relevant given monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The bathroom shown in the listing photographs includes a bathtub and double sinks, indicating a level of finishing above the basic rental-market standard. The kitchen is described as large, and the living-dining area connects to a private terrace overlooking the communal gardens and pool. Fitted wardrobes appear in the bedroom areas, and satellite TV and WiFi are listed as available features. The building itself has a lift, and the community includes a paddle tennis court alongside the main pool and a separate children's pool. Structurally, a 2004 build means modern construction standards for its era, cavity insulation practices, modern plumbing and electrical systems, but predates the energy-efficiency requirements applied to current new builds, so buyers comparing with 2024-completed projects should expect different performance figures. A parking space and storage room within the community complete the practical inventory. As with any resale purchase, an independent technical survey is advisable to verify installation condition.
The apartment carries a fixed asking price of €450,000. This is an existing, completed home rather than a new-build project with a price list, so there is no from-price or remaining-units variation. The price covers 120 m² of living space, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a parking space and a storage room within the community. For regional context, nearby new-build projects such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar start from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, though these are located further along the coast rather than in Nueva Andalucía itself.
Daily life around this apartment revolves around the residential rhythm of Nueva Andalucía, a district known for its mix of permanent residents and second-home owners. The community itself is gated, with white buildings set around shared gardens and pools, which keeps the immediate surroundings calm while the livelier Puerto Banús leisure zone lies about one kilometre away as the crow flies. The west-facing terrace means the afternoon and early evening hours can be spent outdoors, with sun lasting well into the Spanish evening during summer months. The surrounding streets contain a dense amenity offering: within 2 km there are 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist, so everyday errands can largely be completed on foot or by a short drive. The district sits at roughly 10 m above sea level on flat terrain, meaning the walk or cycle towards the coast involves no significant gradient. For households with children, 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools are recorded in the wider area, including the British International School at 3.8 km. Sports facilities nearby include paddle tennis courts within the community's listed features, Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km. Outside the high summer season the neighbourhood quiets down considerably, which suits owners seeking year-round residence rather than a purely holiday setting. The profile is urban-residential: convenience, services and leisure within short range, rather than seclusion or rural quiet.
The surroundings of this apartment combine residential calm with dense service provision. Within a 2 km radius, the recorded amenities include 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist, which places most daily needs within walking or short-driving distance. Healthcare is covered by 5 health centres in the area, and education provision runs to 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, including international options such as the British International School at 3.8 km. The leisure infrastructure is unusually strong: Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina lies 1.0 km away as the crow flies, with two further marinas, Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen at 5.3 km and Marina la Bajadilla at 6.7 km, within easy reach. Public transport covers 10 lines with 50 stops recorded, making car-free living feasible for part of the year, though a car remains practical for golf, larger shopping trips and airport runs. An EV charging point, the Marbella Supercharger, sits 2.3 km away. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km offers a nearby walking destination. The elevation of 10 m and a gradient of only 0.2% towards the beach mean the terrain is flat throughout.
The map shows the apartment's position in Nueva Andalucía, immediately north of Puerto Banús and 7 km from central Marbella. Note the cluster of golf courses to the north and the beach line to the south; all distances shown are straight-line, so road routes may be longer.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Nueva Andalucía occupies the strip between Marbella's town centre (7 km straight-line) and the Puerto Banús leisure zone (1 km), placing this apartment in one of the Costa del Sol's most established residential districts. Málaga, the provincial capital with 579,076 inhabitants, lies 54 km to the east, while Algeciras sits 59 km to the west. Within the regional hierarchy, the location trades the lower price points of inland and eastern Costa del Sol towns for immediate proximity to golf, marina and beach infrastructure, making it a central rather than peripheral position on the coast.
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 listing describes the beach as roughly a 10-minute walk, and actual road distances may be longer than straight-line figures. Marbella centre is 7 km away as the crow flies, and Málaga city 54 km, with Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport approximately 45 km in a straight line, typically under an hour by car via the A-7/AP-7. Gibraltar Airport is a comparable 52 km straight-line distance to the south. Golf access is a defining feature of the location: The Range at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km. With 50 public transport stops and 10 lines recorded locally, day-to-day mobility without a car is realistic, and the apartment lists 'near transport' among its features. The flat terrain throughout the district supports walking and cycling.

Nueva Andalucía's climate data supports an outdoor-oriented calendar. The average annual temperature is 19.2°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest. The swimming season extends to six months per year with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, meaning pool and beach use typically runs from late spring into autumn. The apartment's west-facing orientation aligns afternoon and evening light with the hours most residents spend on the terrace, and the Mediterranean pattern of dry summers reduces the number of lost outdoor days. At 10 m above sea level with a 0.2% gradient towards the coast, the terrain is flat, which matters for walking comfort in the warmer months. The subtropical vegetation visible in the area, palms and established gardens, reflects the mild winter regime. For buyers accustomed to Northern European conditions, the practical consequence is a heating season limited to a few months, well covered by the apartment's combined heating and cooling systems.

Three beaches sit within a 3.5 km straight-line radius: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 2.6 km, Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km, giving residents a choice of stretches along the Marbella coastline. Golf dominates the recreational profile of Nueva Andalucía, sometimes called the Golf Valley: The Range golf lessons at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km provide options within a five-minute drive. Sports facilities include Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km, a climbing facility (Rocodromo) at 3.6 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km, while paddle tennis is listed among the community's own features. For waterside leisure, Puerto Banús marina at 1.0 km as the crow flies offers mooring, dining and people-watching, with the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km a short scenic walk away. The local tourism infrastructure, 52 hotels and 12,781 beds, signals a wide seasonal hospitality offer.
