Mountain views and full sports facilities in Benahavís

Ninety-eight square metres of built area and a 25 m² private terrace form this 2 bedroom middle floor apartment in Benahavís. Because it sits on an intermediate level, the home avoids ground-floor foot traffic while keeping direct lift access from the garage. The apartment is sold unfurnished, meaning a buyer starts with a blank slate and does not have to pay for or clear out someone else's furniture before moving in.

Inside the apartment

Both bedrooms are doubles, supported by two bathrooms and built-in storage in the fitted wardrobes. A fully fitted kitchen is already in place, so the heavy installation work is done even though you will need to bring your own loose furniture. Temperature control runs through a hot and cold air conditioning system, backed by double glazing that helps keep the heat out in July and holds warmth in during winter evenings.

The 25 m² terrace and its outlook

A 25 m² terrace gives enough depth for a proper dining table and separate seating without having to shuffle chairs around to get past. From this level, the outlook is wide and open, with panoramic views across the countryside and surrounding mountains rather than into a neighbour's wall. When viewing, it is worth checking where the sun sits across the terrace in the late afternoon, as mountain topography can drop valleys into shade earlier than down on the flat coast.

What the community includes

Few residential blocks hold this much shared infrastructure. Within the gated community with 24-hour reception, residents have access to both outdoor and heated indoor swimming pools, a full spa area, and a gymnasium. For racket sports, there are tennis, padel, and squash courts on site, alongside a shared library and a games room. A buyer should factor this extensive list of facilities into their decision: a heated pool, spa, and manned reception desk are practical assets in the cooler months, though they require serious ongoing management by the community.

Parking and the drive to the sea

One underground parking space is included, with a lift running up to the apartment level so luggage and shopping do not have to be carried up stairs. From the gates of this 2 bedroom middle floor apartment in Benahavís, the drive down to the coast takes about 10 minutes by car. Living here means trading pavement cafes outside the front door for quieter mountain air and space to play tennis or swim lengths indoors.
