A fully renovated semi-detached house of 202 m² in Nueva Alcántara, San Pedro de Alcántara, within the municipality of Marbella. The property offers three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a 43 m² entrance terrace, a west-facing first-floor terrace, and a basement with direct access to the underground garage. The asking price is fixed at €785,000. Built in 1988 and since completely renovated, the house stands on a quiet, low-traffic street roughly 250 metres from the beach promenade, with Puerto Banús a five-minute drive away.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house sits in Nueva Alcántara, the beachside district of San Pedro de Alcántara, on a quiet, low-traffic street. Playa de San Pedro lies about 1.6 km away as the crow flies, while the seafront promenade is approximately 250 metres from the front door. Marbella centre is 10 km distant in a straight line; Málaga airport roughly 48 km.
The layout serves year-round living: a living/dining area with south- and west-facing windows, a kitchen with patio and laundry, three first-floor bedrooms including an en-suite master, and a basement convertible into a fourth bedroom or multi-purpose room. Air conditioning is installed throughout, and the bathrooms have been recently renovated.
This is an existing home, not a new-build project. Construction dates from 1988, but the property has been fully renovated with no original features remaining. It is key-ready, meaning no construction phase or delivery wait applies. Completion of the original build was in 1988; the renovation is complete at the time of listing.
The communal garden has no swimming pool, which limits on-site bathing facilities. Views from the property face the street rather than the sea. The house is semi-detached, sharing a party wall. There is no mention of central heating; climate control relies on air conditioning (hot and cold) and a fireplace. Parking is limited to the underground garage space.
This house fits buyers who want an established, fully renovated home within walking distance of the beach rather than a new-build on an urbanisation further inland. It suits households that need three bedrooms plus a flexible basement space that can serve as a fourth bedroom, guest room, hobby room, or home office. The layout with three full bathrooms works for families and for couples who regularly host visitors. Buyers focused on outdoor living will find two terraces, a patio, and a communal enclosed garden, though anyone requiring a private or communal pool should note there is none. The property also matches those who use a second home seasonally: the west orientation, air conditioning in every room, and garage access make arrival and departure straightforward. Proximity matters here, the promenade, padel club, shops, and schools are on foot or a short drive, and the international schools of Estepona and the British International School lie 4.1 km and 7.5 km away respectively, which is relevant for families relocating permanently. It is less obvious for buyers seeking sea views, a detached villa, or a modern apartment complex with shared facilities. The 1988 construction combined with a complete renovation will appeal to those who want character, a rustic interior, fireplace, farmhouse kitchen, without undertaking renovation work themselves, while buyers preferring contemporary architecture may look elsewhere.
The house was built in 1988 but has been fully renovated; according to the seller, no original features remain. The bathrooms were renovated recently, one of them equipped with a hydromassage tub and a large window for daylight. Throughout the property, air conditioning units provide both hot and cold air, supplemented by a fireplace in the living room for winter evenings. The interior style is rustic: the photographs show a farmhouse-type kitchen with wooden cabinets, a living room with fireplace and television wall, built-in shelving in the bedrooms, and a dining patio with planting. Fitted wardrobes are present in the bedrooms, and satellite TV is installed. The terraces have been upgraded with an automatic irrigation system and new lighting, which reduces garden maintenance effort. The basement is a practical element of the renovation: it contains a spacious multi-purpose area with a small horizontal window for ventilation and natural light, plus a separate storage room and direct access to the underground garage. The entrance sequence, a 43 m² terrace at street level, then a half-level up to the foyer with guest bathroom, gives the house a graduated layout typical of older coastal properties adapted to modern use. Structural and technical documentation, warranty terms for the renovation works, and energy performance figures are not included in the available data and should be verified during the purchase process. The overall condition is listed as good, consistent with a completed renovation.
The property is offered at a fixed asking price of €785,000. This concerns an existing, key-ready home, so there is no price list of unit variations and no phased release; the price applies to this specific house with its 202 m² of living space, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, terraces, basement, and garage access. Buyers comparing against new-build alternatives in the region will find different pricing structures there: for reference, comparable new developments start from €205,000 in Mijas, €269,950 in Torre del Mar, and €321,000 in Estepona, though those figures relate to different locations, sizes, and specifications. Yearly running costs such as community fees, IBI, and waste collection are not stated in the available data and should be requested separately.
Daily life here is organised around proximity to the sea. The seafront promenade and its beach bars are a short walk of roughly 250 metres, which makes morning walks, swimming, and evening dining reachable on foot. The 43 m² entrance terrace functions as an outdoor room for much of the year, supported by automatic irrigation and new lighting, while the west-facing terrace off the master bedroom catches afternoon and evening sun. The living area receives light through large south- and west-facing windows, so the main floor stays bright across the middle and later part of the day. The interior follows a rustic style, with a farmhouse-type kitchen, a fireplace in the living room, and built-in shelving in the bedrooms. The floor plan splits across levels: entrance terrace at street level, foyer and living space half a level up, three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor, and a basement below with storage, a ventilated multi-purpose room, and direct access to the underground garage. This avoids carrying shopping or luggage through the house. The surrounding district is residential and low-traffic, with Nueva Alcántara's shops, cafés, and the NAC Padel Club within walking range. Puerto Banús and its marina are a five-minute drive, close enough for regular visits without living in the tourist bustle. With 27 restaurants, 11 pharmacies, and 11 banks within 2 km, most daily errands do not require a car, though one is useful for the airport, Marbella centre, and the surrounding golf courses.
Nueva Alcántara sits on the flat coastal strip of San Pedro de Alcántara, at roughly 53 metres elevation with a moderate 3.3% gradient toward the beach, meaning the walk to the sea involves no serious climbing. The immediate street is described as quiet and low-traffic, while the wider area offers the density of services typical of a mature Costa del Sol town: within 2 km there are 27 restaurants, 13 cafés, 11 pharmacies, 11 banks, and a school. Public transport covers the area with 10 lines and 50 stops, so Marbella and other coastal towns are reachable by bus. The NAC Padel Club is approximately 250 metres away, and the Polideportivo San Pedro sports centre lies 1.1 km distant, giving year-round sporting options beyond the beach. Marbella centre, with its old town and 147,958 inhabitants' worth of urban amenities, is 10 km away in a straight line. The neighbourhood supports full-time residence: education provision in the wider area includes 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools, five health centres serve the local population, and the climate, an average annual temperature of 19.0°C with monthly averages between 12°C and 26°C, makes outdoor use of the terraces and patio feasible across most of the calendar.
The map shows the property in Nueva Alcántara, the beachside quarter of San Pedro de Alcántara, on the flat coastal plain of the western Costa del Sol. Note that the distances shown are straight-line; road routes to Marbella, the airport, and inland points run somewhat longer along the coastal corridor.

San Pedro de Alcántara is a town within the municipality of Marbella, positioned between Marbella centre (10 km straight-line) and Estepona on the western Costa del Sol. This places the property in one of the most established sections of the coast: Puerto Banús five minutes away by car, three golf courses within three kilometres, and Málaga airport roughly 48 km distant. Larger regional reference points are Algeciras at 57 km and Málaga city, with 579,076 inhabitants, also 57 km. Compared with the eastern Costa del Sol, this western stretch is characterised by mature infrastructure, a dense international community, and year-round occupancy rather than a purely seasonal rhythm.
Playa de San Pedro lies 1.6 km away as the crow flies, with the dog-friendly Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 1.9 km and Playa Atalaya at 3.5 km. The seafront promenade itself is roughly a 250-metre walk from the house, and the listing states a five-minute drive to Puerto Banús (marina at 3.4 km straight-line). Golfers can reach 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. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is approximately 48 km away in a straight line, with Gibraltar airport a comparable 49 km; actual road distances and travel times will be longer than these direct figures. Electric-vehicle owners have Tesla superchargers at Marbella (6.1 km) and Estepona (7.2 km). International schools, The International School of Estepona at 4.1 km and the British International School at 7.5 km, serve expatriate families. With 50 public transport stops across 10 lines in the area, day-to-day mobility does not strictly depend on a car, though the underground garage space makes car ownership convenient.

The local climate is one of the main draws of this stretch of coast: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, averaging 19.0°C across the year. The swimming season, when sea water holds at 20°C or above, lasts about five months, consistent with the Mediterranean pattern of this latitude. The property's elevation of 53 metres above sea level, on a coastal plain with a moderate gradient, means no steep access roads and easy walking to the beach. Orientation is south, south-west, and west, so the terraces collect afternoon and evening sun; the large windows on the main floor keep the living space lit for most of the day. Air conditioning in all rooms plus the fireplace covers both ends of the temperature range. For nature outings, the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint lies 3.3 km away and the Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos 4.9 km, offering walking destinations beyond the beach promenade. Rainfall data are not specified, but the regional pattern, dry, sunny summers and mild, wetter winters, shapes a year-round outdoor lifestyle.

Within the Costa del Sol market, this property occupies a specific niche: an existing, fully renovated townhouse in a prime beachside location, priced at €785,000. The comparable new-build projects listed operate in a different segment. 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, but those are entry prices for units of varying size on the eastern and central Costa del Sol, generally further from the sea than Nueva Alcántara. What the price of this house reflects is location density: 250 metres to the promenade, three golf courses within 3.2 km, and Puerto Banús within a five-minute drive. San Pedro de Alcántara itself records around 4,743 housing transactions per year, indicating an active resale market with liquidity, relevant for buyers who may sell again later. The character of the purchase also differs. A new-build buyer gets modern construction, community facilities, and phased payments but often waits for completion and accepts a location on the urban fringe. Here, the buyer takes possession immediately, with mature surroundings, established infrastructure (41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the wider area, five health centres, 50 public transport stops), and a rustic interior that new developments do not offer. Against detached villas in Marbella, the semi-detached form trades privacy for walkability and price. Against modern apartments, it trades communal facilities, notably a pool, which this property lacks, for space across four levels, private terraces, and direct garage access. Median provincial income of €16,450 indicates that this price point sits well above the local mainstream market, which shapes both the buyer profile and the resale audience.
