A 35 square metre layout reworked to separate cooking and sleeping
The previous kitchenette in this middle floor studio in El Rosario has been relocated and converted into a separate, independent kitchen. In a compact property of 35 square metres built, taking the cooking area out of the main room changes how the home functions day to day, keeping cooking smells and clutter away from where you sleep. The apartment sits on the beachside of El Rosario within the Las Chapas Playa area, 600 metres from the sea.
How the renovation divides the room
Instead of one open room doing everything, the main studio area has been divided to form a small living zone and a distinct sleeping alcove. This sleeping section has custom-measured fitted wardrobes built around the footprint of a single bed, which adds privacy from the rest of the room. A buyer looking for a double bed will need to measure this alcove carefully during a viewing, as the joinery was built specifically for a single mattress. Mirrors have been installed across the walls to bounce light through the floor plan. The single bathroom has also been altered, replacing the earlier layout with a shower room and extra storage.
The balcony, orientation and community
The apartment faces northeast, meaning the balcony receives morning sun and stays out of the direct, heavy heat on summer afternoons. From the balcony, the view is open across the El Rosario urbanisation, the communal gardens and a nearby playground. A buyer sensitive to daytime noise should check the proximity of the playground when visiting. The building sits inside a small gated community with a communal swimming pool. In the basement of the building, the property includes its own private storage room, which is essential in a 35 square metre home for keeping suitcases, beach gear and bicycles out of the living area.
Walkability and distance to Marbella
Because this middle floor studio in El Rosario is on the beachside of the coast road, reaching the sand and the local beach clubs does not require crossing the highway and takes a 600-metre walk. Shops, everyday amenities and a bus stop are also within walking distance, so a resident does not need a car for daily errands. For wider services, Marbella centre is 6 kilometres away.
How is the sleeping area arranged inside this middle floor studio in El Rosario?
During a full renovation, the studio room was divided to create a small living area and a separate sleeping section. This sleeping area features fitted wardrobes specifically measured to fit a single bed, which gives it privacy from the living space.
Does the apartment have a kitchenette in the main room or a separate kitchen?
The original kitchenette was moved during the renovation and converted into a proper independent kitchen. This keeps cooking separate from the living and sleeping areas within the 35 square metre built area.
How far is the property from the beach and local transport?
The building is in the Las Chapas Playa area on the beachside of El Rosario, 600 metres from the beach and its beach clubs. Shops, local amenities and a bus stop are within walking distance, and Marbella centre is 6 kilometres away.
What direction does the balcony face and what does it overlook?
The studio is northeast facing, which brings morning light to the balcony. It has an open view over the communal garden, the wider El Rosario urbanisation and a nearby playground.
Is there storage space outside the apartment itself?
Yes, the property includes a private storage room located in the basement of the building. Inside the flat, additional storage was also built into the shower room and the sleeping area during the renovation.
