South and west light across a 2018 ground floor home

South and west orientation defines the daily light in this home, bringing sun from midday until late afternoon across both the rooms and the terrace. This 3 bedroom ground floor apartment in Terrazas de Atalaya, Atalaya was completed in 2018 and spans a total built area of 263 m². Because it sits on the ground level, stepping outside does not involve lifts or stairs, which changes how often you use the communal grounds.

Understanding the 263 m² built area and room layout

Within that 263 m² built total, the usable space inside the walls measures 124 m². The difference between those two figures is common in modern Spanish developments, where the official built calculation includes the substantial terrace footprint and a proportional share of the communal areas. Knowing both numbers before you view saves time, as 124 m² is the actual floor area you will furnish. Inside, a main living area connects to three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Every bedroom comes with fitted wardrobes already installed, leaving the floor plan clear of bulky freestanding cupboards. With two bathrooms serving three bedrooms, a family or visiting guests will share at least one bathroom, so a buyer should check on site whether one is en-suite and how the second stands in relation to the living area.

The terrace, the views and what the community includes

The terrace takes full advantage of the south and west facing aspect, holding the warmth during winter afternoons and catching the evening light in summer. From here, the outlook takes in the communal gardens, the swimming pool and the surrounding mountains. The development maintains these landscaped grounds and the shared pool, giving residents green space around the building without the personal upkeep of a private plot. When viewing a ground floor home that faces the pool, it is worth standing on the terrace to check the sightlines and how close the nearest footpath passes.

Garage parking, storage and the Atalaya setting

Below or beside the residential levels, the property includes a private garage parking space and a storage room. Having a dedicated store room matters in a three bedroom property, especially near golf courses where bags, trolleys and seasonal luggage quickly fill bedroom wardrobes. This 3 bedroom ground floor apartment in Terrazas de Atalaya, Atalaya sits on the Estepona side of the Atalaya district, close to the Atalaya Golf and Country Club. Day-to-day errands, shops, restaurants, schools and the coastline are reached from here, while the road network connects directly to San Pedro de Alcántara, Puerto Banús and Marbella.
