This recently renovated townhouse is located in San Pedro de Alcántara, on the western side of Marbella along the Costa del Sol. The property offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms across 228 m² of living space on a 289 m² plot, with a private garden, swimming pool and jacuzzi. Playa de San Pedro lies approximately 1.6 km away as the crow flies. The asking price is €1,850,000 and the home is key-ready, built in 1990 and comprehensively modernised since. A private garage for one car plus additional storage space is included.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in an established residential area of San Pedro de Alcántara, a town within the municipality of Marbella. The beach at Playa de San Pedro is 1.6 km away in a straight line, with a moderate gradient of 3.3% towards the coast. Shops, schools and daily amenities are within close range, and Marbella centre lies 10 km away as the crow flies.
The property combines a functional layout with generous outdoor space. The open-plan kitchen and living room connect to the garden through wide bifold doors, while the garden provides separate zones for dining, relaxing and swimming. Air conditioning is installed, and the south-west orientation gives afternoon and evening sun on the terrace.
This is an existing home, originally completed in 1990 and recently renovated. The construction status is key-ready, meaning the property can be occupied directly after purchase. No construction phases or delivery schedules apply; the buyer acquires a finished house in the condition shown in the current documentation.
The house offers four bedrooms but only a single garage space, with additional room for motorcycles, bicycles or storage. The plot is 289 m², which limits garden size relative to detached villas in the area. Views are limited to the garden and pool rather than the sea. This is a 1990 build, so structural standards date from that period despite the recent renovation.

This property suits buyers seeking a finished, move-in-ready home in a coastal setting who do not wish to manage a renovation or wait for off-plan delivery. The combination of four bedrooms and four bathrooms works for families, including those with older children or regular guests, as well as for couples who want space for visiting relatives. The location near international schools such as Laude makes it relevant for families relocating to the Costa del Sol for the school year. The private pool and garden appeal to buyers prioritising outdoor living within their own plot rather than shared community facilities. At the same time, the profile has clear boundaries. Buyers wanting sea views will not find them here; the views are of the garden and pool. Those needing parking for multiple cars will find one garage space plus supplementary storage. And buyers seeking a modern new-build with current construction standards should note the original build dates from 1990, even though the interior has been recently updated. For a household that values an established neighbourhood, year-round amenities and proximity to the beach over new-build specifications, the property matches a practical set of requirements.
The interior has been recently renovated in a contemporary style with neutral tones and open, well-connected spaces. The kitchen is fully fitted and integrated into the open-plan living area. Bifold glass doors connect the main living space to the terrace, a construction detail that supports both light entry and the indoor-outdoor flow of the house. Air conditioning provides climate control during the warmer months. The property is part-furnished, meaning some items are included while others are not; buyers should verify the exact inventory during negotiation. The four bathrooms indicate a higher specification than the typical three-bedroom townhouse, allowing each principal bedroom direct or nearby bathroom access. Outdoors, the finish includes a lawn and timber decking around the pool, with a jacuzzi installed as a separate feature. The covered terrace extends usability outside the peak summer weeks. Structurally, the house dates from 1990. While the renovation has modernised the interior, buyers assessing long-term maintenance should consider the age of the underlying systems, plumbing, electrics and insulation, and confirm which elements were replaced during the renovation and which remain original. A technical survey is the standard instrument for this. The garage is private and enclosed, accommodating one car with room for bicycles, motorcycles or storage alongside.
The asking price is €1,850,000, fixed for this existing home. This covers 228 m² of living space, four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a private garden with pool and jacuzzi, and a private garage. The property is key-ready and available for direct transfer. Compared with new-build projects in the wider region, this price reflects the established beachside location within Marbella municipality and the completed renovation, rather than off-plan construction. Buyers should account for standard purchase costs in Andalucía, including transfer tax, notary fees and registry costs, on top of the asking price.
The house is arranged around the connection between indoor and outdoor living. The open-plan kitchen and living room form the central space, extending through wide bifold glass doors onto the terrace and garden. When opened, the boundary between inside and outside largely disappears, and the garden becomes a natural extension of the living area. The outdoor space is divided into distinct zones: a dining area, a lounging area and the pool section with a lawn and timber decking. A jacuzzi completes the arrangement. With four bedrooms and four bathrooms, the layout supports both permanent residence and use as a family or guest house. The property is part-furnished and delivered with a fully fitted kitchen. The south-west orientation means the main outdoor spaces receive sun through the afternoon and into the evening, which suits the Mediterranean rhythm of late meals outdoors. The private garage holds one car, with additional space for two-wheelers or storage. Daily life here revolves around a quiet residential street within an established neighbourhood, with the beach, schools and shops a short distance away. San Pedro de Alcántara functions as a year-round town rather than a seasonal resort, so local amenities such as pharmacies, banks and cafés, eleven, eleven and thirteen respectively within two kilometres, remain open outside the summer months.
Daily life in this part of San Pedro de Alcántara is shaped by the density of amenities within walking and short driving distance. Within two kilometres there are 27 restaurants, 13 cafés, 11 pharmacies and 11 banks, along with a school. The town has 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in its wider area, and five health centres serve the local population. Public transport is available through 10 lines with 50 stops, which is substantial for a town of this size and reduces dependence on the car for routine trips. The beach at Playa de San Pedro is 1.6 km away in a straight line, meaning the actual walking or driving distance is somewhat longer, and the route descends at a moderate gradient of 3.3%. Sports facilities are close: the Rocodromo climbing centre is 0.7 km away, the Apolo sports centre 1.0 km and the Polideportivo San Pedro 1.1 km. For families, The International School of Estepona lies 4.1 km away and the British International School 7.5 km, both as the crow flies. The area's tourism infrastructure, 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds, means the town is busy in summer and quieter in winter, though the permanent residential base keeps core services running year-round.

San Pedro de Alcántara occupies a practical middle position on the Costa del Sol: 10 km from Marbella, roughly 57 km from both Algeciras and Málaga in straight-line terms, and directly adjacent to the Nueva Andalucía and Guadalmina zones. This places the property between the marina environment of Banús and the more residential stretch towards Estepona. For regional orientation, Málaga and its airport lie within an hour's drive along the A-7/AP-7 corridor, while Gibraltar airport is similarly close in the opposite direction.
The property's position on the western side of Marbella municipality gives it access to both Marbella and Estepona. Marbella centre is 10 km away in a straight line; Puerto Deportivo José Banús is 3.4 km, making the marina a short drive or a longer walk. Golf is well represented nearby: Magna Marbella Golf at 2.3 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.8 km and El Higueral Golf at 3.2 km, all measured as the crow flies. Beaches include Playa de San Pedro at 1.6 km, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 1.9 km and Playa Atalaya at 3.5 km. Two airports serve the region: Malaga-Costa del Sol at roughly 48 km and Gibraltar at approximately 49 km straight-line distance, giving buyers a choice of arrival points depending on their origin. Electric-vehicle charging is available at the Marbella Supercharger, 6.1 km away. A private car remains the practical mode for most journeys here, although the 50 public transport stops in town provide a workable alternative for daily commuting along the coast.

San Pedro de Alcántara sits at 53 metres above sea level, low enough that the terrain towards the coast is gentle rather than steep; the 3.3% gradient to the beach confirms this. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 19.0°C and monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season lasts around five months, when sea temperatures reach 20°C or above, roughly May to October in practice. This climate profile supports outdoor use of the garden and pool for most of the year, with the jacuzzi extending that use into the cooler months. The south-west orientation of the house aligns with the prevailing afternoon sun, favouring terrace use in the late afternoon and evening. Rainfall concentrates in the winter half-year, keeping the summer dry and the lawn dependent on irrigation during the warm season. The 32 local public holidays per year reflect the Andalusian festival calendar, which regularly brings processions and events into the town's streets.

The nearest beach, Playa de San Pedro, lies 1.6 km away in a direct line and forms part of a long, continuous sandy stretch along this section of coast. Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 1.9 km is a designated dog beach, one of the few in the area, while Playa Atalaya extends the coastline a further 3.5 km to the west. The area holds two Blue Flag beaches, Guadalmina and Venus-Bajadilla, indicating the water quality and service standards at those locations. For golfers, three courses sit within 3.2 km: Magna Marbella, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and El Higueral. The Real Club de Golf Las Brisas is one of the established names of the Costa del Sol golf scene. Sports facilities within about a kilometre include the Rocodromo climbing gym, the Apolo centre and the municipal Polideportivo San Pedro, covering fitness, racquet sports and team activities. Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 3.4 km adds marina-based recreation, from boat trips to waterfront dining, and two viewpoints, Mirador del Muelle de Honor and Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos, offer walking destinations on the coast.

Within the Costa del Sol market, this townhouse occupies a different segment from the new-build projects typically marketed in the region. Comparable new 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) sit at price points far below this property's €1,850,000 asking price, but they also differ fundamentally in character. Those projects are off-plan or recently completed apartment-style developments in emerging or secondary locations, aimed at buyers prioritising budget and new construction. This property, by contrast, is a finished, renovated townhouse in an established beachside neighbourhood of Marbella municipality, one of the most consistently in-demand areas of the entire coast. The price differential reflects location maturity rather than floor area alone. San Pedro de Alcántara recorded 4,743 housing transactions per year, indicating an active and liquid local market, and the town's integration into the Marbella municipal area gives it access to the infrastructure, schools and services of one of the Costa del Sol's principal destinations. Buyers comparing this property with new-build alternatives should weigh the trade-off: a 1990 structure with a modernised interior in a proven location, versus new construction standards and warranties in less established areas. The townhouse segment in San Pedro also competes with detached villas further inland, which offer more plot at similar prices but at greater distance from the beach and town centre. The 289 m² plot here is modest by villa standards; what the buyer purchases instead is proximity, to the beach, to three golf courses within 3.2 km, to Puerto Banús at 3.4 km, and to a year-round town with full services.
