This three-bedroom duplex penthouse is located in Nueva Andalucía, west of Marbella, within a gated community featuring 24-hour security. The residence measures 224 m² across two floors and offers three terraces with views towards the Mediterranean Sea and La Concha mountain. The property was originally built in 1970 and has since undergone a thorough renovation, with Scandinavian-style interiors, micro cement flooring, a marble kitchen island and Bosch appliances. Puerto Banús lies approximately one kilometre away as the crow flies. The asking price is fixed at €1,195,000 and the home is key-ready, sold fully furnished.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The penthouse sits in the La Quinta Village urbanisation in Nueva Andalucía, a residential area known for its golf courses. Puerto Deportivo José Banús is 1.0 km away in a straight line, and Marbella centre is 7 km. Three golf clubs, several beaches and a range of daily amenities lie within roughly 4 km, making the location practical without being central.
The layout serves permanent or seasonal living: three bedrooms and three bathrooms, an en-suite guest room on the main floor, a master suite upstairs with walk-in wardrobe, and three terraces oriented for different times of day. A communal pool and garden, covered parking, air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and a fireplace cover year-round comfort.
This is not a new-build project but an existing, completed dwelling from 1970, recently renovated and delivered key-ready. There is no construction phase or delivery schedule to consider; the buyer can proceed directly to purchase and occupation. Completion dates mentioned by sellers are always indicative and should be confirmed contractually.
The property does not include a private pool or private garden; both are communal. Parking is covered but limited to one space as listed. The kitchen is partially fitted. The building dates from 1970, so structural systems correspond to that period aside from renovation works. No private outdoor kitchen, lift details or storage room beyond the internal laundry are specified.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple or family seeking a turnkey home on the Costa del Sol without undertaking renovation work will find the recently completed interiors and full furnishing directly usable. Buyers who want the outdoor space of a villa but the security and low maintenance of an apartment may recognise themselves here: three terraces, communal pool and garden, and a gated entrance with round-the-clock staff. Those planning extended stays or relocation will appreciate the practical layout, a ground-floor guest suite, upstairs master retreat, laundry and storage room, and the density of amenities within 2 km, including schools such as the British International School at 3.8 km. Golf players benefit from Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and two other courses within 3.1 km. The home also suits buyers who value separation between daily life and tourism: the urbanisation is residential, while Puerto Banús and its nightlife sit at a comfortable distance. It fits less well for buyers requiring a private pool, a private garden or more than one parking space, since these are not part of the offering. Likewise, those seeking brand-new construction should note the 1970 origin of the building, notwithstanding the renovation. Buyers dependent on public transport for daily commuting should verify bus connections against their specific routine.
The renovation follows a consistent Scandinavian aesthetic: natural wood, soft neutral tones and seamless micro cement flooring throughout the living spaces. The kitchen combines custom-designed wooden cabinetry with a marble island and Bosch appliances; it is described as partially fitted, which buyers should verify on viewing to see exactly which components are included. The living room features a bioethanol fireplace, a real flame effect without a flue, which simplifies maintenance in an apartment setting. Bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, and the master suite adds a walk-in wardrobe and a wooden feature wall, with an en-suite bathroom containing a bathtub. Guest bathrooms are finished with glass showers and double sinks, consistent with the photographic record. Climate control is layered: air conditioning for summer, underfloor heating in the bathrooms for winter, and the fireplace for shoulder seasons. The property is sold fully furnished, meaning the buyer acquires the interior as seen. The building itself dates from 1970; renovation visibly covers interiors and installations such as the bioethanol fireplace and underfloor circuits, but buyers are advised to commission a technical survey to assess the state of the original structure, plumbing risers and roof, which are common points of attention in buildings of this age within a community setting. South-facing orientation supports passive warming in winter and extended terrace use across the day.
The asking price is fixed at €1,195,000 for the complete residence, sold fully furnished and key-ready. This is not a price-list project with unit variations; the figure applies to this specific penthouse with its 224 m² of living space, three bedrooms, three bathrooms and three terraces. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs, including transfer tax, notary and registry fees, which in Andalucía typically add a notable percentage to the purchase price. Community fees for the gated complex with pool, garden and 24-hour security, plus annual property tax (IBI), apply on top. Current availability should be confirmed directly, as key-ready homes in this segment can move quickly.
Daily life in this penthouse revolves around its two-storey layout and the way the terraces extend the interior outdoors. The main floor opens from the hallway into an open-plan kitchen and living area, where a marble island and custom wooden cabinetry define the social core. Large openings connect the living room to the principal terrace, and a bioethanol fireplace provides a focal point without the maintenance of a chimney. A bedroom with en-suite bathroom on this level works well for guests or family members who prefer to avoid stairs. The second floor is reserved for the master suite: a walk-in wardrobe, a bathroom with bathtub, and a private terrace with sea and mountain views, plus a breakfast counter positioned for morning use. In total there are three terraces, each catching sun at different hours thanks to the south-facing orientation. The urbanisation itself is quiet and residential, with 24-hour security at the gate. Everyday services are concentrated in Nueva Andalucía and San Pedro de Alcántara: within 2 km there are around 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies and 4 banks, so grocery runs and dinners out rarely require a long journey. Puerto Banús, 1 km away as the crow flies, adds marina-side dining and shopping. For sport, Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km covers municipal facilities, while several golf clubs sit within a short drive. A car remains the most practical mode of transport here; public transport exists, with 10 lines and 50 stops in the wider area, but bus frequency is geared towards local commuting rather than spontaneous trips.
Nueva Andalucía functions as Marbella's western residential extension, colloquially known as the golf valley. The immediate surroundings are quiet by design: low-rise urbanisations, hilly streets and green belts between communities. Within 2 km, the amenity count is high, roughly 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist, reflecting an area that serves both residents and visitors year-round. Healthcare access includes 5 health centres in the broader area, and education options span 41 primary and 28 secondary schools, including international institutions. Tourism pressure is present: 52 hotels with nearly 12,800 beds operate in the region, which means summers are busier, particularly around Puerto Banús at 1 km straight-line distance. Outside the high season the area reverts to a calmer residential rhythm. For daily errands, most residents drive; the terrain is flat towards the coast (a 0.2% gradient to the beach), which also makes cycling and walking realistic for shorter trips. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km offers a nearby walking destination with coastal views, and an EV supercharger station at 2.3 km supports electric vehicle ownership.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Within the Costa del Sol hierarchy, Nueva Andalucía occupies the upper-middle segment: more residential and golf-oriented than Puerto Banús itself, more established and amenity-rich than Estepona further west. Marbella centre, 7 km east, supplies municipal services, the old town and hospital access, while Málaga at 54 km adds the airport, high-speed rail and cultural institutions. The position between Marbella and Estepona places the property at the heart of the western Costa del Sol, the corridor with the region's highest transaction volumes, 4,743 housing transactions per year in the local market area.
Key distances, measured in a straight line, are as follows. 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. Puerto Deportivo José Banús is 1.0 km from the property, with two further marinas at 5.3 km and 6.7 km. Golf options include 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 city centre is 7 km away, while Málaga, with 579,076 inhabitants and the full range of a provincial capital, is 54 km distant. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport lies approximately 45 km away as the crow flies, and Gibraltar Airport roughly 52 km; actual driving distances and times will be longer. Public transport consists of 10 lines serving 50 stops in the area, sufficient for local connections but not a substitute for a car for most residents. Access by road runs via the A-7 coastal motorway and the AP-7 toll road, both passing close to Nueva Andalucía.

The climate data points to a typical Costa del Sol profile: average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual mean of 19.2°C. The swimming season lasts around six months, during which sea temperatures remain at or above 20°C. The elevation is 10 metres above sea level and the route to the beach is essentially flat (0.2% gradient), which distinguishes this location from hillside communities further inland where slopes and stairs shape daily life. Behind the urbanisation the Sierra Blanca range rises towards La Concha, visible from the penthouse terraces; this mountain backdrop contributes both to the views and to the local microclimate, sheltering the coast from some inland weather systems. Sun exposure on the south-facing terraces supports outdoor use for most of the year, with the bioethanol fireplace and underfloor bathroom heating covering the cooler months. Rainfall concentrates in autumn and winter, while summers are predominantly dry.

Beach options cluster between 2.6 and 3.5 km from the property, with Playa Canina Ventura del Mar the closest, followed by Playa de Nagüeles and Playa de Casablanca. These are the sandy stretches associated with the Marbella, Puerto Banús waterfront, offering chiringuitos and water-based activities in season. Golf is the area's signature recreation: The Range golf lessons at 1.9 km suit practice sessions, while Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (2.3 km) and Magna Marbella Golf (3.1 km) are established 18-hole courses in the golf valley. For general sport, Polideportivo San Pedro at 2.9 km provides municipal facilities, with Rocodromo (3.6 km) for climbing and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km) for conditioning training. The communal pool and garden within the urbanisation cover daily swimming without leaving the complex. Evening recreation gravitates towards Puerto Banús, one kilometre away, where the marina, restaurants and the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km combine into walkable leisure circuits.

At a fixed price of €1,195,000, this penthouse positions itself well above the regional new-build averages represented by comparable projects: Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000). Those three figures, however, describe entry-level apartments in eastern and western Costa del Sol growth towns, not the Marbella, Nueva Andalucía core market, so the comparison illustrates the region's price spread rather than direct competition. What the buyer pays for here is location maturity: a 1970s-established urbanisation inside Marbella's golf valley, one kilometre from Puerto Banús and within three kilometres of three golf courses and several beaches. The interior has been renovated to a standard that new-build projects in the €200,000–€350,000 bracket typically do not match, marble island, bespoke carpentry, underfloor heating in bathrooms, three terraces, which narrows the effective gap with newer stock. The trade-off is the building's age: a 1970 structure carries community-maintained systems that a 2024 development does not, and buyers should weigh this in their due diligence. Transaction volume in the area, at 4,743 homes per year, indicates a liquid resale market, which matters for exit flexibility. Median provincial income of €16,450 underlines that this segment is driven by international buyers rather than local purchasing power, a pattern typical of the western Costa del Sol between Marbella and Estepona.
