Beachfront living in the gated community of Villacana

Villacana is an established gated community on the beachfront of the New Golden Mile, with direct access to the sand and short drives to supermarkets, pharmacies and golf courses. Within this seaside urbanisation stands a resale 2 bedroom duplex in Cancelada that pairs private two-level accommodation with shared coastal grounds. For a buyer, this means stepping straight from the communal gardens onto the beach without crossing a coastal road.

Two levels and a single bathroom

The residence measures 84 square metres of built area arranged over two levels, with large windows drawing natural light into the rooms. It holds two bedrooms and one bathroom, alongside hot and cold air conditioning installed throughout the home. Sharing a single bathroom between two bedrooms is a key practical detail; it works straightforwardly for a couple using the second room as a study or occasional guest room, though a viewing should confirm which level the bathroom sits on relative to the sleeping quarters.

The terrace and what the community includes

Outside, a 12 square metre private terrace extends the main rooms into the open air. Twelve square metres is enough floor space for a table and four chairs, giving residents a private spot to sit outside without the upkeep of a private plot. Beyond the front door, the gated grounds contain mature tropical gardens and communal swimming pools. Because the urbanisation is established, the planting is fully grown rather than newly laid. Parking is also included with the property, removing the difficulty of finding a space near the beach during busy months.

Practicalities along the New Golden Mile

Living in this 2 bedroom duplex in Cancelada places everyday services within easy reach by car. Beach bars, restaurants and international schools sit a short drive from the community gates, while the town centres of Estepona and San Pedro, as well as Puerto Banús and Marbella, are accessible along the main coast road. When viewing this 2 bedroom duplex in Cancelada, check the walk from the parking area to the entrance and see how much afternoon light reaches the terrace.
