Ground floor scale and a wraparound terrace in La Maestranza

A 60 m2 wraparound terrace adds almost half as much area again to the 122 m2 built area of this 2 bedroom ground floor apartment in La Maestranza, Nueva Andalucía. Rather than a narrow balcony looking over a rail, the outdoor space wraps around the residence, giving a buyer distinct zones for a dining table and loungers on the same level as the rooms. Being on the ground floor means stepping straight out without using lifts or stairs, which changes how the flat is used day to day.

The terrace and what the community includes

Because the terrace wraps around the exterior, it catches different angles of light and shade as the hours pass. Beyond this private outdoor space, residents share communal gardens and three swimming pools, one of which is heated. A heated pool extends the swimming season into the cooler months, when standard unheated pools on the coast drop out of use. The complex operates with 24-hour security, a practical advantage for owners who leave the property unoccupied between visits. A garage space is also included with the property.

Built area and the question of a third bedroom

At 122 m2 built for two bedrooms and two bathrooms, the proportions are noticeably larger than many newer two-bedroom flats on the Costa del Sol. The residence is ready to be used as it stands, though the footprint is large enough that some buyers look at reconfiguring the layout into a three-bedroom home. Every room has individual hot and cold air conditioning, meaning occupied bedrooms can be cooled or heated at night without running the system across the empty parts of the flat.

Walking to shops and what to check on a viewing

This 2 bedroom ground floor apartment in La Maestranza, Nueva Andalucía sits within walking distance of shops and daily amenities, reducing reliance on a car for basic errands. Even so, having the dedicated garage space solves the problem of street parking during busy periods. When viewing, a buyer considering the three-bedroom conversion should examine where the structural walls and windows sit, and check the community statutes to see what permissions are required for internal alterations. It is also worth walking the length of the 60 m2 terrace to see how it meets the communal grounds and how much privacy each side holds.
