South-west views to Gibraltar and a layout built around light

An open-plan kitchen and living area forms the core of this 3 bedroom middle floor apartment in Santa Clara, Marbella. Completed in 2023, the residence covers a 173 m2 built area where every room faces outward to take in both sea and mountain views. Because the orientation is south-west, the main rooms hold the afternoon light and look out along the coast as far as Gibraltar.

Bedrooms, bathrooms and furniture

The sleeping quarters consist of three bedrooms served by three bathrooms. One is the main bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom, supplemented by a stylish guest bathroom and an additional guest toilet. Having underfloor heating throughout the entire built area removes the wall radiators that otherwise limit where beds and sofas can stand. The sale includes a complete Gunni & Trentino furniture package, meaning the rooms are already dressed to scale and a buyer avoids the long lead times typical of furnishing a property on the coast from scratch.

A 30 m2 terrace and the community facilities

Outside the main room sits a 30 m2 private terrace, deep enough to accommodate two separate seating or lounging zones without blocking the doorways. It looks directly down over the communal swimming pool and communal gardens below, keeping the eye-line clear to the horizon. Within the gated perimeter, the community runs 24-hour security alongside shared resident facilities that go beyond standard summer pools. Owners have use of an on-site spa and a professional gym, which makes the complex practical outside the warm months when outdoor pools go unused.

Storage, parking and practicalities

Downstairs, the property comes with two private parking spaces and one storage room. Two spaces matter in a household of this size or when guests visit with a second car, and the storeroom keeps golf bags and suitcases out of the bedrooms of this 3 bedroom middle floor apartment in Santa Clara, Marbella.
