This five-bedroom detached villa stands in San Pedro de Alcántara, a coastal town within the municipality of Marbella on the Costa del Sol. The property offers 147 m² of living space distributed over three levels, with two bathrooms and a guest toilet. Completed in 2001 and in good condition, it is key-ready and available at a fixed asking price of €850,000. The house includes private parking, a rooftop terrace with sea views, and access to a communal swimming pool shared by a small number of neighbours. Playa de San Pedro lies 1.6 km away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in the built-up core of San Pedro de Alcántara, roughly 10 km by straight line from central Marbella. Shops, restaurants and schools are within a short walk, and the beach at Playa de San Pedro lies 1.6 km away as the crow flies. Three golf courses sit within 3.2 km, and Puerto Deportivo José Banus is 3.4 km distant. The setting combines town convenience with proximity to the sea.
The layout targets family living: five bedrooms including an en-suite master, a family bathroom and a separate guest toilet. The kitchen can be opened towards the living area to create an open-plan arrangement. Outdoor space includes a covered rear terrace and a private rooftop terrace with sea views. Air conditioning and central heating regulate the indoor climate year-round.
This is not a new-build project. The house was completed in 2001 and is described as being in good condition and key-ready, meaning no construction phase or delivery waiting period applies. Buyers can move in directly after purchase. Renovation options, such as opening the kitchen to the living room, remain possible at the new owner's initiative.
The property has two full bathrooms for five bedrooms, with no additional en-suites beyond the master. The swimming pool is communal and shared with neighbours, not private. The kitchen is only partially fitted. There is no lift, so the three-level layout involves regular stairs. No plot size, garden ownership details or energy performance data are available in the provided records.

This house fits households that need five bedrooms within a walkable town setting rather than in an isolated urbanisation. A family with several children benefits from the bedroom count, the guest toilet for visitors and the proximity of schools, including international options within driving distance. Buyers relocating permanently to the Costa del Sol will find the central position practical: healthcare, pharmacies, banks and public transport stops are close, and a car is useful but not strictly necessary for daily errands. Purchasers seeking a lock-up-and-leave second home also match the profile, since the communal pool removes the upkeep of private pool maintenance and the property requires no construction or renovation before use. The house is less suitable for buyers wanting a private pool, a large garden or a single-level layout, as none of these apply. Those who prioritise sea views from a terrace, walking access to restaurants and shops, and an address within Marbella municipality at under €900,000 will find the combination here relatively scarce. Investors considering rental use should note that the 2001 construction date and two-bathroom configuration place it in the mid-market segment rather than the luxury tier.
The house was completed in 2001 and is recorded as being in good condition, which places it in the category of well-maintained early-2000s construction rather than contemporary new build. Photography shows fitted wardrobes in the master bedroom, a functional family kitchen and a bright living room opening to a balcony. The kitchen is partially fitted, meaning appliances and cabinet installation are incomplete relative to a fully equipped standard; the existing description refers to it as fully equipped, so buyers should verify the exact inventory during a viewing. Climate systems include both air conditioning and central heating, an important combination on the Costa del Sol where winter nights can fall towards the average January low of around 12°C. Windows and insulation follow the standards of the construction period rather than current regulations, so thermal performance will differ from post-2020 builds. The finishes visible in the images, white walls, wooden elements and tiled floors, are consistent with Andalusian residential construction of that decade. Practical features such as the covered terrace, the barbecue and the internal parking space are structurally integrated. No information is available on the energy certificate, recent roof works or plumbing and electrical updates, so a technical survey is the appropriate step for assessing long-term maintenance requirements.
The property is offered at a fixed asking price of €850,000. This is an existing home completed in 2001, so no price list, unit variation or phase-dependent pricing applies. The price reflects a key-ready house of 147 m² with five bedrooms, parking for two cars, a private rooftop terrace with sea views and communal pool access, in a central San Pedro de Alcántara location. Comparable new-build apartments elsewhere on the coast start from roughly €205,000 to €321,000, but those are smaller units in different towns; this is a single, finished property in an established Marbella-municipality address. Availability is immediate upon completion of the purchase process.
Daily life in this villa revolves around a three-storey town-centre layout. The ground level holds the living spaces and the partially fitted kitchen, which could be opened up to the sitting area for a more contemporary flow. A covered rear terrace serves as an outdoor extension of the living room, suitable for meals most of the year given the regional climate. The upper floors contain the five bedrooms, with the master enjoying its own en-suite bathroom; a family bathroom and a guest toilet serve the remaining rooms. The rooftop terrace adds a third outdoor level, oriented towards the sea, and functions as the property's principal viewpoint and evening space. A barbecue feature supports outdoor cooking. The south-facing orientation brings daylight into the main rooms for most of the day. Parking is arranged inside the house, with space for a second vehicle outside. The communal pool, shared by only a few neighbours, covers the swimming need without private maintenance responsibility. The immediate surroundings are urban rather than resort-like: cafés, restaurants, banks, pharmacies and a supermarket offering walkable access, with the promenade and beach about twenty minutes on foot along a moderate 3.3% gradient. San Pedro remains active outside the summer season, as it is a permanent residential town within Marbella municipality rather than a seasonal enclave.
San Pedro de Alcántara functions as a residential town rather than a resort, which shapes daily life around the property. Within 2 km, the area counts 27 restaurants, 13 cafés, 11 pharmacies and 11 banks, giving the town centre a full-service character that remains active through the winter months. One school lies within that same radius, and the wider municipality offers 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools across Marbella. Five health centres serve the local population. The beach promenade at Playa de San Pedro, 1.6 km away as the crow flies, works as the natural evening destination, with the walk back up a moderate 3.3% gradient. Puerto Deportivo José Banus lies 3.4 km distant for marina visits, dining and boat watching. Public transport covers the area with 10 lines and 50 stops, so travel to Marbella, 10 km away by straight line, does not depend entirely on a car. The tourism infrastructure, 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds, means the town busies up in summer while retaining a year-round residential base.
The map shows the villa's position within San Pedro de Alcántara's town fabric, between the commercial centre and the coast. Playa de San Pedro lies 1.6 km to the southeast as the crow flies, while the golf courses of Magna Marbella and Las Brisas sit a short distance northeast. Marbella centre and Puerto Banús frame the location to the east.

San Pedro de Alcántara occupies the western stretch of Marbella municipality, roughly 10 km by straight line from Marbella centre and about 3.4 km from Puerto Banús. This positions the property between Marbella's established town life and the Nueva Andalucía golf belt, with Estepona further west along the coast. Málaga city lies 57 km away in a direct line. On the Costa del Sol as a whole, the location is considered central-western: close to both the marina economy of Banús and the residential density of Marbella, while remaining a functioning Spanish town with its own schools, health centres and year-round commerce.
The nearest beach, Playa de San Pedro, lies 1.6 km away as the crow flies, followed by Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 1.9 km and Playa Atalaya at 3.5 km. Three golf courses sit close by: 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 straight-line distances. Marbella centre is 10 km away in a direct line. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport lies roughly 48 km distant and Gibraltar Airport about 49 km, giving the location two airport options within comparable range. Public transport consists of 10 lines with 50 stops in the area, and the property is described as near transport. By car, the coastal A-7 and AP-7 corridors connect the town along the whole Costa del Sol. Electric-vehicle charging is available at the Marbella Supercharger, 6.1 km away, and a second Supercharger near Estepona at 7.2 km.

The location sits at 53 m above sea level with a moderate 3.3% gradient down to the beach, which keeps walking and cycling to the sea realistic for most residents. The average annual temperature is 19.0°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C at the height of summer. The swimming season extends over five months, during which sea water holds at 20°C or above, roughly May through September. The rooftop terrace, facing south with sea views, receives direct sun for the majority of the day, which suits both morning and afternoon use across most seasons. Central heating covers the cooler winter evenings when temperatures can drop towards 12°C on average. Viewpoints such as Mirador del Muelle de Honor at 3.3 km and Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos at 4.9 km offer nearby walking destinations with coastal perspectives.

The coastline around San Pedro holds two Blue Flag beaches, at Guadalmina and Venus-Bajadilla, indicating sustained water quality and services. Playa de San Pedro itself is the closest option at 1.6 km as the crow flies, with the dog-friendly Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 1.9 km and Playa Atalaya at 3.5 km offering alternatives. Golf forms the second recreational pillar: Magna Marbella Golf, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and El Higueral Golf all lie within 3.2 km, giving residents three courses within a short drive. For general sport, three facilities operate nearby, Rocodromo at 0.7 km, Apolo at 1.0 km and Polideportivo San Pedro at 1.1 km. The marina at Puerto Deportivo José Banus, 3.4 km away, adds sailing, waterfront dining and people-watching to the leisure mix.

At €850,000, this villa occupies a different segment from the new-build comparables currently marketed along the coast. 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 these are entry-level apartment products in towns further from the Marbella core. What this property sells instead is land-adjacent density: a detached house with five bedrooms, private parking and a rooftop terrace in the middle of San Pedro de Alcántara, one of the few genuinely walkable town centres on the western Costa del Sol. Within Marbella municipality itself, detached houses near the town centre are relatively scarce; most stock in this price band consists of apartments in gated communities or older villas in the hills behind the coast. The location also benefits from dual airport access, with Málaga-Costa del Sol and Gibraltar airports at roughly 48 km and 49 km by straight line respectively. Against the regional backdrop of 4,743 housing transactions per year in the area, the property represents the established mid-market of Marbella real estate rather than either the new-build entry segment or the luxury villa market above €2 million. Buyers weighing this house against new-build alternatives should account for the 2001 construction date, two full bathrooms for five bedrooms, and a partially fitted kitchen, balanced against a central address that new projects in Torre del Mar or Estepona cannot match in terms of proximity to Marbella and Puerto Banús.
