Second-floor living with two terraces and a rooftop solarium

With a built area of 98 square metres, this resale 2 bedroom penthouse in Bel Air occupies a second-floor position. The layout divides the outdoor space into three distinct areas: two separate terraces on the main level and a private rooftop solarium above. Having outdoor areas facing different directions means you do not have to rely on a single aspect for sun or shade.

The terraces and the communal grounds

One of the lower terraces looks out over the communal swimming pool and landscaped gardens towards the Mediterranean Sea. The second terrace faces the opposite way, towards the surrounding mountains. Above the apartment, the private rooftop solarium has 360-degree views taking in the coastline, the mountain ranges of the Costa del Sol and La Concha mountain. Within the grounds, residents share the garden areas and the pool, and the property comes with parking. When viewing a second-floor apartment, it is worth checking whether the building has a lift from the parking area or if access is by stairs alone, as the listing data does not specify this.

Bathrooms, glazing and climate control

Inside, the 98 square metres Built area accommodates two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Both bathrooms have been recently renovated to a modern standard, which removes one of the main jobs buyers usually face in an older resale apartment. For temperature and noise control, the flat is fitted with hot and cold air conditioning and double glazing. There is also an alarm system installed. Because the bathrooms are already updated, a buyer inspecting the property can focus on the age of the kitchen units and the condition of the air conditioning machinery.

Walkable shops and driving times from Bel Air

Daily errands do not require a car from this location. Major supermarkets, cafés and restaurants are within walking distance, and there are golf courses and tennis clubs nearby. For wider travel along the coast, Puerto Banús and the marina in Estepona are each a 10-minute drive away, while Marbella Old Town takes 15 minutes by car. For flights, both Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport and Gibraltar International Airport are roughly 45 minutes away by car, giving practical options in either direction for a 2 bedroom penthouse in Bel Air.
