A renovated ground-floor apartment in the established urbanisation of Aldea Blanca, Nueva Andalucía, offered at a fixed asking price of €895,000. The property provides 126 m² of living space with two bedrooms, a versatile third room, two bathrooms and a west-facing terrace. Completed in 1984 and since renovated, the home is key-ready and arranged entirely on one level with step-free access from the parking area. The setting places Puerto Banús, Centro Plaza and several golf courses within a short radius, while Marbella lies roughly 7 km away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Aldea Blanca sits in Nueva Andalucía, inland of Puerto Banús at about 1 km straight-line distance. Marbella centre lies 7 km away as the crow flies, Málaga 54 km. Beaches such as Playa Canina Ventura del Mar are around 2.6 km distant, with three golf courses within 3.1 km. Restaurants, pharmacies and banks cluster within a 2 km radius.
The apartment suits buyers seeking single-level living with step-free access from parking to front door. Two main bedrooms plus a flexible third room allow use as office, guest room or playroom. A west-facing terrace catches afternoon and evening sun, while communal gardens and pools serve daily outdoor use without private maintenance obligations.
This is not a new-build project. The building dates from 1984 and the apartment has since been renovated; construction status is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. No delivery dates apply. Buyers should factor the age of the building structure into their assessment alongside the renovated interior.
The property offers two formal bedrooms rather than three, as the third room is a flexible space without the characteristics of a full bedroom. Parking arrangements beyond step-free access from the parking area are not specified. There is no private pool or private garden; outdoor facilities are communal. No plot, storage or lift details have been provided.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a manageable second home near Puerto Banús will find the single-level layout, communal pool and walkable amenities aligned with part-year residence. A small family can use the third room as a children's bedroom or playroom, with the British International School about 3.8 km away in a straight line among the schooling options. Buyers planning for longer-term accessibility, older purchasers or those with family members with reduced mobility, benefit from the step-free route from parking to entrance. Remote workers can convert the third room into an office, supported by fibre-optic connectivity and satellite television already installed. The west-facing terrace particularly suits residents whose day peaks in the late afternoon and evening. The property is less obvious for buyers wanting a private pool, a private garden or a minimum of three full bedrooms, and the 1984 building age means those prioritising new construction should look elsewhere. Households intending to rent the property should verify community rules on tourist letting, common in established urbanisations near Puerto Banús.
The apartment has been renovated and is recorded as being in excellent condition, with a modern, fully fitted kitchen integrated into the open-plan living area. Interior imagery confirms a contemporary finishing level: a dining area with wooden table, a modern bathroom with decorative wallpaper, and a furnished outdoor patio lounge. Technical provisions include air conditioning, double glazing and fibre-optic internet, a combination that addresses both summer heat management and year-round liveability. Satellite television is installed, and all bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, which affects practical storage capacity in a positive way. The master bedroom's en-suite bathroom adds privacy compared with a shared-bathroom layout. Two aspects deserve a buyer's attention. First, the building itself dates from 1984; the renovation covers the interior, but the structural age, communal installations and building maintenance history should be assessed through survey and community documentation. Second, the terrace is partly covered and partly open, described as both covered terrace and private terrace in the specifications, clarifying the exact proportions during a viewing is advisable. Communal areas, including gardens and pools, are maintained collectively, so their condition depends on community management rather than individual action.
The apartment is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €895,000, not a from-price. For that amount the buyer acquires 126 m² of renovated living space with two bathrooms, a west-facing terrace and use of communal gardens and pools in Aldea Blanca. For regional context, comparable new-build projects elsewhere on the coast start considerably lower, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, though those are different locations, building ages and product types. Annual transaction volume in the wider area is around 4,743 sales, indicating an active resale market.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around a single-level layout and an outdoor-oriented rhythm. The open-plan living area with fitted kitchen forms the centre of the home; sliding doors connect the living space and the third room to the west-facing terrace, which receives sun from the afternoon into the evening. That orientation shapes the practical use of the property: mornings are indoor-oriented, while the terrace becomes the natural living space later in the day. The third room functions flexibly. Depending on household composition it can serve as a home office, a children's room, the interior imagery shows a bunk-bed arrangement with a desk, or as an extension of the living area. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom; the second bedroom also opens onto the terrace. Step-free access from the parking area to the front door makes the layout practical for residents with reduced mobility and for households planning longer-term occupancy. Outside the front door, the Aldea Blanca urbanisation provides communal gardens and swimming pools set within traditional Andalusian-style architecture. The neighbourhood sits between golf valley and coast: Puerto Banús is roughly 1 km away in a straight line, Centro Plaza with its shops and restaurants is within walking distance, and the beach lies about 2.6 km off. With 69 restaurants, several cafés, banks and pharmacies within 2 km, most daily errands can be done on foot or by a short drive.
The immediate surroundings combine residential calm with dense amenity provision. Within 2 km the area counts 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist, an unusually complete daily-service provision that reduces car dependency for routine errands. Healthcare is covered by 5 health centres in the area, and education options are extensive for Spanish standards: 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, plus international schools such as the British International School at 3.8 km straight-line distance. Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina lies about 1.0 km away, effectively the neighbourhood's leisure anchor for dining, strolling and people-watching. Sports facilities are varied: Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km, a climbing facility (Rocodromo) at 3.6 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint, 1.2 km away, offers a nearby walking destination. The area is tourist-inflected, 52 hotels with nearly 12,800 beds, meaning summer months bring noticeably more activity than winter, a rhythm typical for this stretch of coast. Public transport is available with 10 lines and 50 stops in the area, and an EV Supercharger sits 2.3 km away, useful for electric-vehicle owners.
The map shows the apartment's position between the golf courses of Nueva Andalucía and the coast at Puerto Banús, roughly 1 km south. Marbella centre lies 7 km east; the beaches sit 2.6 km away across flat terrain.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Nueva Andalucía occupies the zone between Marbella's municipal centre, 7 km east as the crow flies, and the Puerto Banús leisure economy at its doorstep. It is commonly described as Marbella's golf valley district, combining established residential urbanisations with the commercial gravity of Centro Plaza and the marina. Málaga, the regional capital with around 579,000 inhabitants, lies 54 km away; Algeciras is 59 km west. Within the Costa del Sol hierarchy, the area positions itself as a mature, amenity-dense residential market rather than a frontier of new development.
Distances below are straight-line; road distances and travel times are longer. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km away, with Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km, all reachable within a short drive. The gradient from the apartment to the coast is essentially flat at 0.2%, so cycling is realistic. Golfers 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. Marbella is 7 km away as the crow flies; Málaga city and its airport are roughly 54 km and 45 km respectively, with Gibraltar airport about 52 km in the opposite direction. A car is practical for regional mobility despite the walkable neighbourhood, and the property is listed as near transport, with 10 bus lines serving 50 stops locally.

Nueva Andalucía lies at approximately 10 m above sea level on flat coastal terrain, so no hillside climbing is involved in daily life, consistent with the 0.2% gradient toward the beach. 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. The swimming season extends to roughly six months with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, spanning approximately May through October. Winters are mild enough for year-round terrace use on sunny afternoons, which pairs well with the apartment's west-facing orientation. The nearby golf valley and the mountain backdrop inland provide green and hiking-oriented surroundings within a short drive, while the coastline offers the sea-oriented complement. Rainfall is concentrated outside the summer months, as is typical for southern Spain, and the 32 local public holidays per year reflect Andalusia's dense festive calendar.

Three beaches sit within 3.5 km straight-line: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.6 km), Playa de Nagüeles (2.7 km) and Playa de Casablanca (3.5 km), covering the stretch between Puerto Banús and Marbella. The marina of Puerto Banús at 1.0 km functions as the area's principal recreational hub, with additional marinas at Marbella (5.3 km) and La Bajadilla (6.7 km) for boat-oriented leisure. Golf is the second recreational pillar: three courses within 3.1 km, including the established Real Club de Golf Las Brisas. For land-based sport, Polideportivo San Pedro offers municipal facilities at 2.9 km, complemented by climbing and CrossFit options nearby. The tourism infrastructure, 52 hotels and roughly 12,800 beds, guarantees a wide seasonal offering of restaurants and entertainment, at the cost of busier summer months. The swimming season of about half the year defines the outdoor calendar.

Within the Costa del Sol resale market, this apartment competes primarily on location rather than novelty. Nueva Andalucía's established stock trades at a premium over new-build price lists further along the coast: comparable projects 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 start below €350,000, yet they sit in areas with thinner amenity provision and longer travel times to the Marbella, Puerto Banús core. At €895,000 for 126 m², this property prices at roughly €7,100 per square metre, a level consistent with mature, sought-after Marbella-district locations where land values and international demand support resale prices. What the buyer obtains for that differential is measurable: a marina at 1 km, three golf courses within 3.1 km, beaches under 3 km, and an amenity density of nearly 70 restaurants and multiple schools and health centres within 2 km. The trade-off is equally measurable: a 1984 building rather than new construction, communal rather than private outdoor facilities, and a seasonal tourist influx of 52 hotels' worth of visitors in high summer. Compared with other Nueva Andalucía urbanisations, Aldea Blanca is positioned as a traditional, well-maintained community within walking distance of Centro Plaza, which distinguishes it from hillside developments that trade views for accessibility. For buyers weighing an equivalent budget between a new-build apartment in Estepona or Mijas and a renovated resale here, the decision effectively comes down to building age and specification on one side against immediate proximity to Puerto Banús and Marbella on the other.
