South-facing top floor flat with views to Gibraltar

Direct southern orientation brings sun across the terrace and main room from morning until late afternoon. Listed under the search heading of a 1 bedroom top floor apartment with private pool in Manilva, this resale home sits on the second floor of an Andalusian-style building in Hacienda Guadalupe and looks out over the surrounding area to the sea and Gibraltar.

The terrace and what the community includes

Doors from the living room open onto an 8 m2 south-facing terrace fitted with sun blinds to manage the midday heat. An eight-square-metre outdoor space is large enough for a table and two chairs, while keeping upkeep to a minimum. On the ground, the gated urbanisation with 24-hour security provides communal gardens and a swimming pool shared by the residents, alongside parking in the gated area directly in front of the building.

Inside the 52 m2 built area

The 52 m2 built area is arranged around a living room with an open fireplace and an open-plan fitted kitchen. Having the kitchen open to the main room avoids losing floor space to corridors, which matters in a compact one-bedroom layout. A single bedroom with a fitted wardrobe and one bathroom complete the plan. Ceramic flooring, double-glazed windows and a security entrance door are already in place, and the property is sold fully furnished, allowing a buyer to use the flat immediately without furnishing delays.

Walks to the beach and coastal drives

From Hacienda Guadalupe, the beaches are a five-minute walk away, meaning daily swims do not require taking the car. When driving along the coast, La Duquesa port is five minutes away for marina dining and errands, while both Estepona and Sotogrande port are reached in ten minutes in opposite directions. Golfers have La Duquesa Golf and several other courses in the immediate surroundings. For a buyer comparing a 1 bedroom top floor apartment with private pool in Manilva against other coastal flats, the combination of top-floor privacy, all-day sun and a five-minute walk to the sand is the practical measure of this listing.
