First-floor living in Solemar with a 40 m2 terrace

Sea views and the communal gardens with their swimming pool sit directly below the terrace. This 3 bedroom middle floor apartment in Casares Playa is a first-floor resale home in the Solemar development, built across a single level with a 105 m2 built area. Because it is a recently completed resale that has been lightly used, a buyer avoids the waiting list and snagging phase of an off-plan purchase while still getting contemporary installations.

Single-level layout and open-plan kitchen

The living and dining area shares one room with the fitted open-plan kitchen. Having the kitchen in the main room keeps the layout sociable and the sightlines open to the outside, though buyers should check the extraction and storage capacity since cooking happens in the same volume where you sit. All three bedrooms are doubles, which makes the flat practical for families or visiting guests rather than leaving one room only fit for a single bed or study. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and opens straight onto the terrace, while the other two bedrooms share a second bathroom. Centralised air conditioning runs throughout the property, and all bedroom windows are fitted with electric blinds to block out early light and heat.

The terrace and what the community includes

Large sliding doors connect the main room and the principal bedroom to a 40 m2 southeast-facing terrace. That orientation brings direct morning sun and leaves the outdoor table in cooler shade during summer afternoons. A terrace of this size adds nearly forty percent to the usable footprint of the home and includes built-in discreet storage space, meaning outdoor cushions and beach gear do not need to be carried inside. Downstairs, the Solemar community maintains planted gardens and a large communal swimming pool. This 3 bedroom middle floor apartment in Casares Playa also includes a covered private parking space situated close to the lift, taking the friction out of unloading shopping onto the first floor.

Reaching the beach, Duquesa and Estepona

From Solemar, the beach and nearest local amenities can be reached in five minutes on foot or by car. Being able to walk to the seafront removes the daily summer problem of coastal parking. For a wider choice of restaurants and a harbour, Duquesa Marina is a few minutes away by car, while the larger town centre of Estepona lies 15 minutes down the coast.
