An L-shaped terrace split between open air and glass

The L-shaped terrace on this 2 bedroom middle floor apartment in Artola is divided into two distinct zones, with the larger section fitted with a glass enclosure and the remaining section left open. That enclosed winter garden works as a dining room through the cooler months and opens straight onto the uncovered section when the weather warms up. Downstairs, the block shares a communal garden and swimming pool, and the beach in Artola Baja is roughly a five-minute walk away.

Inside the 76 m² built area and recent upgrades

With a built area of 76 square metres, the layout holds two bedrooms and one bathroom. Rather than needing immediate work after purchase, the flat has already been through a partial renovation covering the daily essentials. New flooring runs through the rooms, and both the internal room doors and the main front door have been replaced. The new kitchen is fitted with a Bosch oven, a Bosch dishwasher and an integrated extraction fan. In the renovated bathroom, there is a walk-in shower alongside the washing machine, which saves space in the kitchen. Heating and cooling are handled by new Bosch air conditioning units installed in the living room and the bedroom.

The terrace and what the community includes

Because the terrace is L-shaped and partly glazed, it gives a compact flat a second living or dining area without losing the ability to sit outside in the open air. Outside the building, residents have access to the shared garden and pool, as well as outdoor parking included with the property. The building also has an underground garage where basement parking spaces can be purchased separately if one is available. For buyers looking at letting rules before they commit, the apartment building has approval for both short-term and long-term rentals, an important detail on the Costa del Sol where communities increasingly restrict holiday lets.

Artola Baja and local connections

Being in Artola Baja means daily errands and beach trips do not always require a car. Public transport links, a pharmacy, schools and restaurants are all close to the building, and the sand at Artola and Cabopino is within walking distance. When driving is necessary, this 2 bedroom middle floor apartment in Artola sits two minutes by car from Cabopino and ten minutes from the centre of Marbella, while Malaga Airport takes around forty minutes along the coast road.
