This ground floor studio sits in Montemar Bajo, a coastal district of Torremolinos, roughly 500 metres from Playa del Bajondillo. The property measures 30 m² and includes a separate bedroom, one bathroom, air conditioning, a private terrace and a fully fitted kitchen. Completed in 2023 (indicative) and offered fully furnished, it is currently free of charges and mortgage. The surrounding neighbourhood is urban and walkable, with a supermarket within 100 metres, a pharmacy 46 metres away and Torremolinos train station approximately 100 metres from the door. Málaga Airport lies 6.3 km away. Torremolinos itself is an established resort town of some 71,000 inhabitants with four Blue Flag beaches.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in Montemar Bajo, an established residential area of Torremolinos on the Costa del Sol. Playa del Bajondillo is around 500 metres away on foot. The nearest supermarket is 102 metres away, the pharmacy 46 metres, and Torremolinos train station roughly 100 metres. The area is flat to moderately sloping toward the sea, with a steeper section near the beachfront.
The studio functions as a compact permanent residence, holiday base or rental unit. Daily needs, shopping, pharmacy, cafés and restaurants, are within walking distance, and the Cercanías train connects directly to Málaga city centre and the airport. The separate bedroom, air conditioning and private terrace support year-round use. The 30 m² footprint limits the property to single occupants or couples.
The property was completed in 2023 (indicative) and is described as in excellent condition. It is delivered fully furnished with a fitted kitchen and fitted wardrobes, meaning occupancy or rental use can begin shortly after purchase. No construction risk applies. The building includes a communal garden area, and the unit is situated on the ground floor with access for people with reduced mobility.
The property offers 30 m² of living space with one bedroom and one bathroom, which restricts it to one or two occupants. There is no private parking space; parking is on-street, subject to local availability. The unit has no sea view; views face the garden and street. EV charging is only available from approximately 4 km away. The communal garden is shared with other residents.

This property fits a recognisable set of situations. A single buyer or couple seeking a lock-up-and-leave coastal base within walking distance of the beach, shops and rail transport will find the profile matches. Buyers who want to use the unit for part of the year and rent it out for the remainder benefit from the furnished delivery, the separate bedroom (which distinguishes it from an open studio for listing purposes) and the year-round rental demand associated with a town of 71,000 permanent residents rather than a seasonal resort. It also suits buyers prioritising budget efficiency: at €176,000 it sits below most Costa del Sol new-build entry points, though buyers should weigh the 30 m² size against their long-term space needs. International buyers arriving through Málaga Airport benefit from the 6.3 km transfer distance and the direct train link, which removes the need for a hire car for typical stays. Situations that fit less well include families needing multiple bedrooms, buyers requiring a private parking space or garage (this property offers street parking only), and those seeking views or a private pool. Retirees or buyers with reduced mobility will note that the unit itself has level access, but the slope back from the beach at roughly 10.8% is a practical consideration for daily beach walks.
The property is recorded as being in excellent condition and was completed in 2023 (indicative). The kitchen is fully fitted and includes a fridge, microwave and washing machine according to the available imagery, which means the unit is functionally complete for immediate occupation. The bathroom is equipped with a shower, toilet and sink. The separate bedroom is a structural feature uncommon in studios of this size class and provides fitted wardrobes for storage. Interior climate is managed through air conditioning, and the west-facing orientation means the main living space receives afternoon light, pleasant in winter but worth managing in the height of summer through shading. The private terrace opens onto a patio area with planting, including a banana tree visible in the listing photographs, giving the outdoor space an established rather than newly landscaped character. The communal garden is shared with other residents of the building. As a resale-class unit in an existing building, buyers should expect standard Spanish urban construction rather than new-build specifications; no energy certificate rating was provided in the available data, and verifying this, along with the building's community fees and any planned maintenance works, is a standard step in due diligence. Access for people with reduced mobility is noted at unit level. Street parking is available nearby throughout the year, though without a dedicated space the availability is not guaranteed at all hours.
The asking price is €176,000, which equates to roughly €5,870 per m² for the 30 m² unit. This positions the property below the regional new-build benchmark: comparable developments such as Lantana Residencial in Mijas start from €205,000, while Aquamar in Torre del Mar and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona start from €269,950 and €269,000 respectively. Those projects, however, offer larger new-construction units, whereas this is a completed resale-ready studio delivered furnished and free of charges. The price reflects the compact size and the ground-floor position with garden and street views rather than sea views.
Daily life around this studio is organised around short walking distances. The supermarket is effectively around the corner at 102 metres, the pharmacy is closer still at 46 metres, and the immediate 2 km radius counts 192 restaurants, 37 cafés, 11 banks and 24 pharmacies, so errands rarely require a car. Torremolinos train station sits about 100 metres from the property, connecting residents to Málaga centre in under 30 minutes and to the airport terminal directly. The rhythm of the area follows the coastal calendar: busy and lively during the summer months when the town's 52 hotels and roughly 20,800 tourist beds fill up, and considerably calmer from late autumn to spring, when many seafront businesses reduce hours. The walk to Playa del Bajondillo takes most people under ten minutes, though the return leg includes a gradient of roughly 10.8% near the beachfront, a factor worth noting for anyone with mobility considerations, even though the unit itself is ground-floor and adapted. The private terrace and communal garden provide outdoor space without the maintenance burden of a private plot. With west orientation, the terrace receives afternoon and evening sun, which suits late-day meals outdoors. The neighbourhood of Montemar Bajo is residential rather than hotel-dominated, which tends to mean steadier noise levels than the immediate town centre, while still being within walking distance of the Paseo Marítimo and its chiringuitos.
The immediate environment is dense, urban and service-rich. Within a 2 km radius there are 192 restaurants, 37 cafés, 11 banks, 24 pharmacies and 5 dentists, alongside a hospital at 2 km and two health centres in the municipality. Education provision includes 13 primary schools and 9 secondary schools in Torremolinos. Public transport is a defining feature: the property sits approximately 100 metres from Torremolinos station on the C-1 Cercanías line, and the wider municipality is served by 16 public transport lines and 93 stops, making car-free living practicable. The character of the area shifts with the seasons, the town hosts 52 hotels and a substantial tourist population in summer, while retaining a large permanent population of about 71,300 year-round, so services do not shut down outside the season in the way smaller resorts do. For recreation, the municipal swimming pool (Piscina Municipal Virgen del Carmen) is 1 km away, a football pitch at 0.9 km, and an orientation circuit at 0.8 km. The nearest EV charging point is 4 km away, which matters for electric vehicle owners relying on home charging being unavailable at a street-parking property.
The map shows the property in Montemar Bajo, a short distance inland from the Bajondillo beachfront. Note the train station immediately adjacent, the line connects Málaga Airport (6.3 km) with the city centre. The slope indicator between the property and the coast reflects the 10.8% gradient of the final approach to the beach.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Torremolinos occupies the coastal strip immediately west of Málaga city, 13 km from the regional capital and 37 km northeast of Marbella. It was the first Costa del Sol resort to develop, from the late 1950s onward, and remains among the most visited. Its position between Málaga's airport and the western resorts gives it stronger transport links than almost any other coastal town in the region, the C-1 train line runs through the municipality with three stations. Relative to Fuengirola or Benalmádena, Torremolinos is denser and more service-oriented, with a larger permanent population and year-round infrastructure.
Playa del Bajondillo is roughly 434, 437 metres away, with El Gato Beach at 488 metres and Playa del Lido at about 0.7 km. Málaga Airport is 6.3 km away and directly reachable by train from the station 100 metres from the property. Málaga city centre is 13 km away, Marbella 37 km, and Granada 101 km.

Torremolinos records approximately 3,888 hours of sunshine per year and an average annual temperature of 18.6°C, consistent with the Costa del Sol's reputation for reliable sun. The swimming season, when sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above, extends to about four months, realistically June through September, though sea swimming outside this window is common among residents. The town sits at approximately 57 metres above sea level, but the property's location on the lower slopes means the final approach to the beach involves a gradient of around 10.8%, steep enough to notice on the return walk. The immediate outdoor space is the private terrace and communal garden, with the patio planting visible in the listing giving some greenery without mountain or open-country access at the doorstep. For walkers, the Mirador Los Cañones viewpoint at 1.2 km and Pico Palomas at 3.6 km offer accessible hill options.

Very Steep
Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this studio occupies the budget entry point. Comparable new-build developments listed regionally start materially higher: Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000. Those projects sell larger, off-plan or newly constructed homes with modern energy specifications and communal facilities such as pools, which explains part of the price gap. What this property offers instead is immediacy, completed in 2023, furnished, free of charges, and a location profile that few new-build projects can match: a 100-metre distance to a Cercanías train station, a 6.3 km distance to Málaga Airport and beach access on foot. Locationally, Torremolinos trades differently from its neighbours. Benalmádena and Fuengirola to the west are marginally less densely built; Marbella, 37 km away, operates in a higher price band with a different buyer profile. Málaga city, 13 km east, is the region's employment and cultural centre and is directly reachable by train. For rental considerations, Torremolinos records 1,566 property transactions and hosts 52 hotels with roughly 20,800 beds, indicating a substantial visitor economy alongside a permanent population of about 71,300, a mix that supports both seasonal and year-round tenant demand. Buyers comparing this studio with new-build alternatives should weigh the size differential: 30 m² is compact even by studio standards, and comparable budgets would secure larger floor areas further from the coast or in inland towns such as Torre del Mar. The provincial median income of €16,450 provides context for local purchasing power, though coastal property pricing is driven largely by international and second-home demand rather than local wages.
