A corner penthouse in a renovated forty-home community

Being the final corner unit in a renovated development of forty residences gives this home fewer shared walls and light from more than one side. This 3 bedroom penthouse duplex with garden in El Paraiso combines 180 square metres of built area with communal grounds, 24-hour security, a gym, and a coworking space on the New Golden Mile.

How the built area works

Three bedrooms and two bathrooms sit alongside an open-plan main room. With 180 square metres built, the rooms have considerably more volume than a standard modern flat on this stretch of coast, where three-bedroom apartments often measure a third less. A buyer should check how the two bathrooms are assigned among the three bedrooms and how the staircase sits within the open-plan layout. Having only two bathrooms for three bedrooms means at least two of the rooms share facilities, which is a practical point to consider when guests stay.

The 46-square-metre terrace and private solarium

Outdoor space here is split, totaling 46 square metres of terrace and including a private rooftop solarium with a jacuzzi. A corner position means fewer neighbours looking onto your outdoor areas, which matters when using a jacuzzi or sitting outside. Because the 46 square metres covers the outdoor footprint, a viewer should verify at the property whether that figure includes the solarium or measures the main terrace alone, and check the sun direction across the afternoon.

Shared grounds, gym and coworking

The development has been fully renovated and runs as a gated community with 24/7 security. Because there are only 40 homes sharing the site, the communal gardens and outdoor swimming pool stay quieter than in the larger complexes typical of the area. Residents also have access to an on-site gym and a coworking area, meaning someone working remotely does not have to give up one of the three bedrooms to set up a desk. Underground parking and a storage room are included with the property, keeping cars off the street and spare gear out of the flat.

Walking to golf and shops on the New Golden Mile

Living in this 3 bedroom penthouse duplex with garden in El Paraiso puts golf courses, restaurants, and daily shops within walking distance. Being able to walk for bread, a meal, or a round of golf reduces reliance on a car, which is unusual for hillside urbanisations on the Costa del Sol. For wider errands, the main road connects directly to Estepona, Marbella, and Puerto Banús in a short drive.
