A corner flat on the first floor, two minutes from the sea

Two bedrooms, one bathroom and a kitchen share an 89 m2 built area in this 2 bedroom top floor apartment in Benamara. The complex has only two levels, so the top floor here means the first floor, reached by a single flight of stairs and with no neighbours overhead. Being a corner unit gives the rooms an extra exterior wall for daylight and cross-ventilation compared to an mid-terrace flat.

Condition and scope for renovation

The kitchen is in good working order and can be kept as it is. The remaining rooms need modernisation, which makes this 2 bedroom top floor apartment in Benamara a straightforward project for a buyer who prefers to choose their own bathroom fittings, flooring and carpentry rather than paying for someone else's recent refurb. When viewing, it is worth checking whether internal partition walls are load-bearing if the plan is to alter the layout around the existing kitchen.

The terrace and what the community includes

Private outdoor space consists of a 9 m2 terrace, large enough for a table and four chairs without crowding the doorway. Because the wider grounds are shared, the maintenance of the outdoor facilities does not fall on the individual owner. The complex provides communal gardens, a communal swimming pool and a residents' bar within the enclosure. Cars are left on the street directly outside the building, so there is no underground garage to maintain through the community quota, though a buyer should check how busy the kerbside gets in August.

Walkability and bus connections

Benamara sits on the beachside of the main coast road, and from the gate it is a two-minute walk to the beach and promenade. Shops, cafés, beach bars and restaurants are all reached on foot without crossing a highway. For journeys further along the coast, a bus stop stands directly outside the complex with regular routes towards Estepona, Puerto Banús and Marbella, making it practical to stay here without relying on a car every day.
