Southwest corner terraces and a two-level layout

A 106-square-metre terrace wraps around the main level of this 3 bedroom penthouse duplex with golf views in Capanes del Golf, Benahavís, linking the primary rooms directly to the outside. Because the home is a corner unit with a southwest orientation, the outdoor spaces receive afternoon sun and avoid having neighbours on both sides. From the terrace, the sightlines take in the communal gardens, the swimming pools, the surrounding mountains, and the bordering El Higueral Golf Course.

The terrace and what the community includes

Outdoor space here is divided between the main wraparound terrace and a separate private terrace on the upper level, giving a combined 107 square metres of terrace alongside the 174 square metres of built area. Down below, Capanes del Golf operates with 24-hour gated security and landscaped subtropical gardens. Residents share several outdoor pools, including a lagoon-style pool, which spreads out the crowd during busy weeks. For cooler months, the development has a heated indoor swimming pool, a gym, a sauna, and spa facilities, meaning the building remains practical outside the summer season.

Two floors with an isolated upper suite

The layout splits the sleeping quarters across two levels, with all three bedrooms having en-suite bathrooms. On the entry floor, two en-suite bedrooms sit alongside the living and dining room and a separate, equipped kitchen. Almost every room on this lower level opens straight onto the wraparound terrace. Buyers who prefer a single main room should note that the kitchen wall can be opened to the living area, though anyone viewing should check the structural specifics and community rules for renovation work. The entire upper floor is given over to the main bedroom suite with double-height ceilings, its own bathroom, and a private terrace facing the golf course and mountains. This separation suits owners who host guests or older children and want a floor to themselves.

Heating, parking and road connections

Climate control is handled by hot and cold air conditioning throughout the apartment, supported by underfloor heating in all three bathrooms. In the basement, the property comes with two underground parking spaces and a private storage room, which resolves the common problem of where to keep golf clubs, bicycles, and a second car in a hillside urbanisation. For everyday errands and dining, the village of Benahavís is a five-minute drive inland. In the other direction, the road leads down to San Pedro de Alcántara, the beaches, and the Puerto Banús marina, while the AP-7 motorway provides a 45-minute route to Málaga Airport. Choosing this 3 bedroom penthouse duplex with golf views in Capanes del Golf, Benahavís means relying on a car for daily life, traded against quiet surroundings and full on-site leisure facilities.
