This project features a fully renovated 26 m² studio apartment located in the city center of Torremolinos. Situated on the first or second floor of a building with commercial ground-floor units, the property offers strategic positioning near public transport and urban amenities. Completed in 2024, the renovation includes new fixtures, double-glazed windows, and a modern interior. The location provides immediate access to Plaza de Andalucía and is within walking distance of the commuter train station, making it suitable for year-round living or as a convenient base for frequent visitors to the region.
Compared to projects like Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) and Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720,000), this project offers a significantly lower entry price. This is mainly due to the type of property: a compact studio in an existing city block versus luxury new-build apartments in resort settings. Projects like Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000) are closer in price but offer more space. This project's location is more central and urban than the comparison projects, appealing to a different demographic. The value lies in location and 'turn-key' condition.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is positioned near Plaza de Andalucía and the central bus station of Torremolinos. Within 200 meters, the commuter train station offers direct links to the coastline and Málaga Centro. The surroundings are urban and commercial, providing direct access to shopping streets like Calle San Miguel. This setting ensures high connectivity with essential services available within a short walk.
The layout is efficiently designed for one-person households or couples. The 26 m² living area is maximized with an open-plan living and kitchen space. The renovation provides a functional bathroom and a modern kitchen. The units are delivered unfurnished, with options available to add furniture for an additional fee. The building is equipped with an elevator, facilitating access to the upper floors.
While the building is existing, the apartment itself is in a phase of recent complete renovation. The status is 'Ready', meaning all technical installations and finishes are new. Handover can occur shortly after transaction without construction delays. The structural condition is good, supported by the presence of an elevator.
The 26 m² surface area is compact, which limits storage and living space. There is no private terrace included in the base price, nor is on-site parking arranged; residents rely on street parking or public facilities. The view faces a courtyard or street, which may affect natural light. For those seeking resort-style tranquility and space, this urban location may not provide the desired seclusion from city noise.
This property suits individuals or couples seeking a central Torremolinos home without reliance on a car. Its location is ideal for commuters using the train network between Málaga and the coast. Investors may find it relevant due to the rental potential near the station. Those preferring low-maintenance, fully renovated properties over fixer-uppers will find a solution here. It also appeals to buyers who favor city life over resorts, wanting direct access to amenities.
The renovation was executed to modern standards, renewing elements from the structure to the finish. The installation of double glazing improves thermal and acoustic insulation, relevant for this urban area. The kitchen is fully fitted and new, as is the bathroom. Electrical and plumbing systems have been updated, minimizing near-term maintenance costs. The finish is neutral and modern, ensuring a timeless aesthetic.
Prices start from €149,800 for studios without a terrace. A unit with a terrace is available at €154,800. Given the smaller surface area, the price per square meter is higher than the regional average for larger apartments, typical for urban pied-à-terre properties. Prices exclude furniture unless specified.
Living here means embracing a dynamic urban lifestyle. The location in Torremolinos Centro places you in the heart of the action, with supermarkets, dining, and shops within 400 meters. The daily reality is that of a city apartment: you step out into a bustling environment with traffic and pedestrian activity. For those who prefer walking or using public transit, mobility is excellent. Nearby fitness and sports centers support an active routine. Residing here means accepting the vibrancy of a popular coastal town, with lively streets and evening entertainment guaranteed.
The neighborhood is a mix of traditional Spanish architecture and commerce. With 384 restaurants and numerous cafes within 2 km, dining options are abundant. Cultural sites like the Mirador de la Alcazaba are accessible within 20 minutes by train. The area also offers sports facilities, including chess and wellness centers nearby. The street is commercially active, ensuring constant access to services.
