Village living with a 19 square metre terrace and shared gardens

The 19 square metre private terrace looks out over the natural surroundings of the village and acts as an outdoor room off the main living area. Despite frequently appearing in property searches for a 2 bedroom middle floor apartment with private pool in Benahavís, buyers should note that the swimming pool here is shared among the residents of the residential complex rather than belonging solely to the flat. Being on a middle floor means you have neighbours above and below, which removes the upkeep of a private plot while keeping you off the street level.

The terrace and what the community includes

At nineteen square metres, the terrace has enough depth for a dining table and chairs without blocking the doors back into the flat. Downstairs, the complex maintains a communal swimming pool set within landscaped gardens. Because the community handles the garden and pool maintenance, the property works straightforwardly as a lock-up-and-leave base. In the basement of the building, the ownership includes underground parking and a private storage room, keeping cars out of the summer sun and leaving bulky sports gear or luggage out of the bedrooms.

Inside the 89 square metre built area

The 89 square metres of built area are divided between two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a single main room where the equipped open-plan kitchen connects to the dining and living areas. Putting the kitchen, dining table, and sofas into one room makes the most of the natural light coming through the terrace doors, though it does mean cooking happens in the same space where you sit in the evening. Having two full bathrooms for two bedrooms means guests do not need to use the main bathroom, which makes the layout practical when two couples or a small family stay at the same time.

Public sports facilities and village life in Benahavís

Most buyers looking at a 2 bedroom middle floor apartment with private pool in Benahavís are actually trying to balance swimming access with proximity to the village centre. Unlike the isolated hillside developments further down the road towards the coast, this complex sits where residents have free access to village public amenities. Those facilities include landscaped parks, schools, padel and tennis courts, a football field, a basketball court, a skate park, and a golf practice area. You can walk to local cafés and restaurants serving Andalusian food, while Marbella and the beach remain a drive down the valley road.
