Two levels with en-suite bedrooms on both floors

An independent kitchen opens onto a terrace on the lower level, beside a combined living and dining room and the first en-suite bedroom. This 2 bedroom penthouse duplex in Elviria spreads 136 square metres of built area across two floors within the Terrazas de Santa María Golf development in Marbella East. Separating the bedrooms by a staircase gives two couples or a host and guest real acoustic privacy, and avoids the need for anyone to cross the living area at night to reach a bathroom.

The upper bedroom and the two floors

Upstairs sits the second bedroom, which also has its own bathroom. Having one en-suite bedroom on the main floor means day-to-day living can stay entirely on the entry level if stairs become an issue later, leaving the upper floor for visitors. Because there is no third guest toilet mentioned in the layout, visitors in the daytime will use the lower en-suite bathroom. Meanwhile, an independent kitchen rather than an open-plan wall keeps cooking smells and noise out of the sitting room, while its direct door to the terrace makes carrying plates outside straightforward.

Three terraces and the communal grounds

Outdoor space is split across both levels rather than concentrated in one large deck. Beyond the terrace off the kitchen on the main floor, the upper bedroom has two small terraces facing opposite directions: one looks out to the sea, and the other faces the mountains. Overall, a south-facing orientation brings sun for most of the day, while the rear mountain terrace offers a shaded alternative when the southern side gets too hot in August. Downstairs, the Terrazas de Santa María Golf community provides gardens and a communal swimming pool, alongside an underground parking space and a storage room included with the flat.

Planning status and walking times in Marbella East

In this part of Marbella East, urban planning history matters to conveyancers and mortgage lenders. The agent notes that this resale 2 bedroom penthouse duplex in Elviria has no planning or urban planning violations, a point your lawyer should still verify through the town hall paperwork, particularly as the listing appears under a distressed category in the property feed. For daily errands, the Elviria Shopping Centre is a five-minute drive or roughly a twenty-minute walk away, grouping supermarkets, restaurants and everyday shops in one commercial hub. When viewing, walk the route to check the gradient of the hills on the way back up toward the golf course.
