Sea views and direct promenade access in Las Petunias

The covered terrace looks out to the Mediterranean Sea through palm trees. This 3 bedroom middle floor apartment with beachfront in San Pedro de Alcántara sits in the Las Petunias area, right beside the coastal promenade. With a built area of 104 square metres and two bathrooms, it gives a household an immediate coastal base without the maintenance of a standalone house.

Open-plan layout and utility space

Inside, the kitchen is integrated directly into the main living and dining room. Having a single open-plan living and dining area means the cook is in the same room as everyone else, though it rules out shutting the door on kitchen noise or cooking smells. A separate utility area provides additional practical space outside the main kitchen. Three bedrooms and two contemporary bathrooms complete the 104 square metres of built area. Because those three bedrooms share this footprint with the living room and two bathrooms, a buyer should check the wardrobe capacity and bed clearance in the secondary bedrooms during a viewing.

The terrace and what the community includes

Direct access leads from the main room out to a 15-square-metre covered terrace. Fifteen square metres is enough for a dining table and a couple of chairs, while the overhead cover provides shade from the midday sun and shelter on damp days. Downstairs, the residential block sits within communal gardens with a swimming pool, maintained by the community. The property also comes with private underground parking, which solves the daily problem of finding a space near the beach during the busy summer months when street parking fills up early.

Daily routine on the Las Petunias coast

Living in this 3 bedroom middle floor apartment with beachfront in San Pedro de Alcántara means the beach and the seafront walkway are directly outside the community grounds. Cafés, beach clubs, restaurants and everyday shops are within walking distance of the building, so a car is rarely needed for daily errands or going out for a meal. The town centre of San Pedro de Alcántara is close by for wider municipal services, and Puerto Banús is a short drive along the coast road.
