This completed 137 m² two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is situated in an established gated community in Nueva Andalucía, Marbella. The property occupies a second-floor position with a south-east orientation, offering views over communal gardens, the pool area and the Mediterranean. Built in 1988 (indicative), the residence features marble flooring, a glazed terrace, air conditioning and a fireplace. The community includes a free-form swimming pool, tennis courts and 24-hour access control. The location places Puerto Banús beach approximately 300 metres away, with supermarkets, pharmacies and the Golf Valley courses within a two-kilometre radius. Asking price: €769,999.
Within the western Costa del Sol, this apartment occupies a different market segment from the newer developments east of it. Comparable new-build 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 €269,000) offer lower entry prices, but they sit in locations with less immediate amenity density and, in some cases, longer delivery timelines. The €769,999 asking price here equates to roughly €5,620 per m², a premium that reflects two factors: the established Nueva Andalucía address between Puerto Banús and the Golf Valley, and the walkable urban setting (pharmacy at 64 metres, supermarket at 353 metres, beach at 300 metres) rather than a car-dependent suburban development. Marbella's western zone consistently records the municipality's highest resale values; the provincial transaction volume (4,743 recorded transactions in the dataset area) indicates an active market with liquidity for established properties. The trade-off against new-build alternatives is clear: buyers exchange modern energy certification, developer warranties and contemporary specification for location maturity, larger communal grounds and immediate availability. The 1988 construction carries marble flooring and generous room dimensions typical of its era, though technical due diligence (ITE, glazing, systems) becomes more relevant than with a 2020s build. For rental-orientated buyers, the Puerto Banús proximity and 69-restaurant radius support year-round letting demand, tempered by high summer competition from the area's 52 hotels. Compared with Marbella centre (7 km), Nueva Andalucía offers a lower-density residential character while retaining comparable access to services.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in the urban heart of Nueva Andalucía, within walking distance of Puerto Banús and its beach (approximately 300 metres straight-line). A supermarket is 353 metres away and a pharmacy 64 metres. The setting is urban rather than residential-quiet, with the marina, Centro Plaza and the Marbella bullring all within a short radius. Three golf courses lie within 2.1 kilometres.
The property functions as a turn-key residence: two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, two full bathrooms, a modernised kitchen with Miele appliances, and a year-round usable glazed terrace. Hot and cold air conditioning throughout supports both summer and winter occupancy. Communal facilities, pool, tennis courts, mature gardens, provide leisure options without private maintenance obligations.
This is not a new-build development. The building dates from 1988 (indicative) and the unit is completed and available. The kitchen and bathrooms show modernisation; the condition is listed as excellent. No construction risk or phased delivery applies. Furniture is negotiable (optional), which can shorten the move-in timeline for buyers seeking immediate use.
The property does not offer a private pool, private garden or private parking listed in the available features. It is a second-floor apartment without lift information confirmed in the dataset. The building age (1988, indicative) means energy certification and technical inspection status should be verified. Community rules on rental use and pets are not stated in the available data.
This property aligns with several recognisable situations. First, buyers seeking a walkable coastal base: the combination of a 300-metre beach distance, pharmacy at 64 metres and supermarket at 353 metres means daily life can function without a car, relevant for those who prefer not to drive in Spain or plan seasonal stays without a vehicle. Second, golf-oriented owners: three courses (Los Naranjos, Las Brisas, Aloha area) sit within roughly two kilometres, making multi-round weeks practical. Third, buyers prioritising immediate usability: the unit is completed, modernised and can be occupied directly, with furniture negotiable, contrasting with off-plan purchases that require two to three years of waiting. Fourth, those who value established communities over new developments: mature gardens, large pool areas and tennis courts typically characterise 1980s-1990s urbanisations, features that newer projects often replace with smaller footprints. The two-bedroom configuration suits couples, small families or owners wanting a second bedroom for guests. It is less suited to buyers requiring private outdoor space beyond a terrace, private pool access, or more than two bedrooms. The area's tourism profile means summer occupancy and traffic around Puerto Banús increase noticeably; owners seeking year-round quiet may prefer locations further inland.
The interior specification combines original quality materials with selective modernisation. Flooring throughout the main rooms is marble, a standard feature of upper-tier 1980s Marbella construction that has proven durable. The living room retains a marble fireplace and built-in shelving. The kitchen has been renewed with white gloss cabinetry, composite worktops and integrated appliances, including a Miele dishwasher, with a separate utility and laundry room, a practical addition for permanent residence or rental turnover. The master bathroom is finished in travertine marble with a hydromassage bath; the second bathroom uses matching stone with a walk-in rain shower. Climate control is twofold: hot and cold air conditioning throughout, plus the fireplace as supplementary heating. Fibre optic connectivity is installed. The glazed terrace extends usable space across seasons, functioning as a sunroom in cooler months. As a 1988 building, elements that warrant technical verification during due diligence include the boiler and hot water system, window glazing and seals, electrical installation, and the community's building inspection (ITE) status. The condition is recorded as excellent, but buyers of properties of this age typically commission an independent technical survey. Community infrastructure, 24-hour access control, tennis courts, pool, is managed collectively; community fees and reserve funds should be reviewed before purchase.
The asking price is €769,999 for 137 m², equating to approximately €5,620 per square metre. The property is completed and available for purchase. Furniture is optional and subject to negotiation. As a resale unit in an established 1988 community, the price reflects location (Puerto Banús proximity, Golf Valley) rather than new-build specification. Buyers should budget additionally for purchase costs (transfer tax, notary, registry), community fees and the optional furniture package. No on-plan payment structure applies.
Daily life here is shaped by proximity: the beach at Playa de Puerto Banús is roughly a five-minute walk, the pharmacy under two minutes, and the supermarket similarly close. This density of walkable amenities is unusual for the Marbella area and reduces car dependency for routine errands. The apartment itself is oriented around its glazed terrace, which faces south-east over the communal gardens and pool; this positions the main living space for morning and midday sun. The interior layout follows a classic Spanish distribution: hallway entry, a long combined living and dining room with marble floors and a fireplace, two double bedrooms at the far end. The master suite has an en-suite bathroom with travertine marble and a hydromassage bath; the second bathroom has a walk-in rain shower. A separate utility and laundry area sits off the fitted kitchen. The community context matters for the living rhythm: 24-hour access control, mature subtropical gardens with palms, a large free-form pool and tennis courts. Outdoor space is communal rather than private, which suits owners who want landscaped surroundings without garden maintenance. Evenings and weekends can centre on the pool area, the ten-minute walk to the marina promenade, or the restaurants concentrated around Puerto Banús, 69 within a two-kilometre radius. The area carries a tourism load (52 hotels, roughly 12,800 beds within the same radius), so summer months are busier than winter months, a pattern typical for this stretch of coast.
The immediate environment is dense and service-rich. Within a two-kilometre radius the dataset records 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and 1 dentist, alongside 5 health centres and hospitals at 1.9 kilometres. This density supports a resident's routine: groceries, dining and medical needs are all within walking or short-driving range. Transport access includes 10 public transport lines with 50 stops in the area, giving a car-optional profile unusual for Marbella municipality. Education options are substantial, 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the wider dataset, with the British International School at 3.8 kilometres, relevant for families considering partial or full relocation. Sports facilities nearby include Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km), a climbing wall (Rocodromo, 3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km). An EV charging point sits 368 metres from the property, with a Tesla Supercharger at 2.3 kilometres. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint (1.2 km) provides a nearby walking destination. Marbella centre lies 7 kilometres away and San Pedro similarly close by car.
The map shows the apartment's position in Nueva Andalucía relative to Puerto Banús marina and beach to the south, the Golf Valley courses to the north, and Marbella centre to the east. Walkable amenities, supermarket, pharmacy, restaurants, cluster within a few hundred metres, illustrating the location's car-optional character on the Costa del Sol.
