South-facing ground floor living with a glazed terrace and seven pools

The view takes in the sea and the open countryside around Manilva. This 2 bedroom ground floor apartment in Manilva combines a generous 141 square metres of built area with a south-facing terrace of 39 square metres. It sits in an established urbanisation with twenty-four-hour security, seven swimming pools and underground parking, making it a straightforward, secure base for either full-time use or regular visits.

The glazed terrace and what the community includes

Outdoor space here is defined by a 39 square metre covered terrace facing directly south, which guarantees steady sunlight through the day. Rather than leaving the area exposed to the wind, the owners have fitted a Lumon-style glass curtain system. Folded back, the terrace remains an open porch looking out to the sea and country; closed, it acts as a sheltered second sitting room when the weather turns cooler. Beyond the private terrace, the communal grounds are extensive. Residents share seven communal swimming pools, a padel tennis court and maintained green areas. Having seven pools across the complex spreads the summer load so you are not competing for space around a single basin, alongside the 24-hour security service.

Inside the 141 square metres

A built area of 141 square metres is notably large for a two-bedroom property on this stretch of coast, where many modern equivalents are far more compact. That footprint allows for a spacious living and dining room connected to a fully fitted open-plan kitchen, alongside a separate utility and laundry room that keeps noisy appliances out of the main room. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, and one of the two bathrooms is en-suite. Marble flooring runs through the home, alongside air conditioning, WiFi and an alarm system. Because this 2 bedroom ground floor apartment in Manilva is sold unfurnished, a buyer does not have to pay for or dispose of someone else's furniture, and can measure the rooms cleanly from day one.

Underground parking and local connections

A private space in the underground car park and a separate lockable storage room are included in the sale, with a lift connecting the levels so you can bring shopping up without using the stairs. For someone locking up for a few months at a time, the storeroom takes the bikes, golf clubs and beach gear out of the apartment. For day-to-day errands and dining, the Port of La Duquesa, the beach, local shops and restaurants are a short drive away. The wider road network gives straightforward access to nearby golf courses and the larger towns of Estepona, Sotogrande and Marbella.
