Two terraces and updated interiors on the third floor

Two private terraces totalling 18 square metres of outdoor space sit off this third-floor corner unit, catching partial and side views toward the sea. This 3 bedroom middle floor apartment in Guadalcántara, San Pedro de Alcántara has a 127 square metre built area and has already been through the messy part of a renovation: the floors and both bathrooms have been replaced. Being a corner flat on the third floor gives it open sides rather than neighbours on both walls, which changes how air and light move through the rooms.

The terraces and what the community includes

Splitting the 18 square metres across two separate terraces means one can stay clear for a table while the other handles drying laundry or morning coffee, though neither will take a large dining set. Downstairs, the complex shares two communal swimming pools and green garden areas. Parking is also included with the property, taking the friction out of coming home when the town streets are busy, even if most errands can be done on foot.

Inside layout and the bathroom refit

The layout puts a living room alongside a separate kitchen that has its own utility room, keeping the washing machine and cleaning gear out of the cooking area. All three double bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom fitted with a whirlpool bathtub, while the other two bedrooms share the second bathroom. Both bathrooms have been fully gutted and refitted using Artelinea furniture, Grohe taps, Brandoni towel rails and Duscholux shower screens. Named hardware like this is worth noting because standard Spanish developer fittings often need replacing within a decade; here that work is already done.

Flooring, climate control and security

Throughout the entire built area, the original tiles have been lifted and replaced with scratch-resistant porcelain stoneware, a practical choice if you bring sand back from the beach or have dogs. Each room runs on independent air conditioning, so you are not paying to cool two empty bedrooms just to keep the main one comfortable at night. The apartment also has a wired background music system across the rooms, automatic security shutters on the windows, and a reinforced front door, allowing an owner to drop the shutters at the press of a button and lock up securely for weeks at a time.

Daily errands in central San Pedro

Buying a 3 bedroom middle floor apartment in Guadalcántara, San Pedro de Alcántara means living in the town centre where daily life does not require a car. Shops sit directly around the building, and both the San Pedro boulevard and the beach are within walking distance. When viewing, it is worth checking which rooms face the street and testing how well the closed shutters block out town noise, as well as seeing how the 18 square metres of terrace space are divided between the two outdoor areas.
