More outdoor space than indoor

Eighty square metres of terrace and private solarium sit alongside a 74 m² built area, meaning this 2 bedroom penthouse in Casares, Casares gives more room outside than under a roof. The outdoor area is split into two distinct parts: a main terrace directly off the living and dining room, and stairs from that terrace leading up to a 70 m² private solarium.

The terrace, the solarium and the Casares del Sol community

Because the property is south-facing, both the lower terrace and the upper solarium take direct sun for most of the day. The lower terrace looks out over the communal gardens, the swimming pools and the Mediterranean Sea. Up the external stairs, the 70 m² solarium holds a hot-tub Jacuzzi and commands wider panoramic sea views. For a buyer, that split means eating can happen on the level of the kitchen while the upper space stays clear for sun loungers. The apartment belongs to Casares del Sol, a gated community with 24-hour security. Residents share landscaped gardens and three communal swimming pools, which spreads the summer crowd more evenly than a single pool does.

Inside the 74 m² built area

An open-plan room handles both living and dining, with direct access out to the main terrace. Rather than losing wall space to an open kitchen, this flat keeps a separate fitted kitchen with new appliances and an adjoining utility area, which keeps laundry noise and cooking smells away from the living room. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. The main bedroom has a modernised en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, while the second bedroom has a Juliette balcony looking over the gardens and uses the second bathroom.

Furniture, storage and underground parking

The resale flat is sold fully furnished, removing the delay of kitting out a holiday base from scratch. Downstairs, the title includes a private underground parking space and storage room number 07. Having a lockable storeroom matters in a 74 m² 2 bedroom penthouse in Casares, Casares, as golf bags, beach gear and solarium cushions do not have to live in the bedrooms when the flat is locked up.

Location between Estepona and La Duquesa

Casares del Sol sits between Estepona and La Duquesa Marina, with the town of Sabinillas close by for everyday supermarkets and local restaurants. The beach and several golf courses, including Finca Cortesin, are within easy reach by car. When viewing this 2 bedroom penthouse in Casares, Casares, check the plumbing and maintenance history of the rooftop Jacuzzi, and see how exposed the upper solarium feels to the coastal wind on a breezy afternoon.
