High above the centre with open views to the sea

Several rooms look out to the sea from an elevated position above the surrounding roofs. This 3 bedroom top floor apartment in Marbella sits right at the junction of Calle Jacinto Benavente and Avenida del Mercado. Having nobody above removes overhead footstep noise and pulls in consistent daylight and cross-ventilation that lower floors in the dense town centre rarely receive.

A 30 m² kitchen and scope to alter the plan

The 120 m² built area is divided across three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and an unusually large kitchen. That 30 m² kitchen takes up a quarter of the built footprint, making it large enough to hold a full family dining table without crowding the cooking area. Because this is an older resale layout, the internal partitions offer options for buyers planning renovation work. A common approach in flats of this size is opening the kitchen into the living room, or using part of the footprint to create an en-suite master bedroom, subject to checking which walls are structural.

The terrace and what the community includes

Doors lead from the living room out to a private terrace that shares the open sea views. Sitting at the top of the building gives this outdoor space privacy from neighbouring blocks. For a central flat, the community setup is straightforward: a well-maintained residential building with easy street access and a lift. There is no mention of a communal swimming pool, gardens or underground parking in the building details, which buyers should take into account, though a simpler building typically means fewer shared facilities to maintain.

At the junction of Jacinto Benavente and Avenida del Mercado

Living here means doing daily errands on foot. The Municipal Market is two minutes away, the narrow streets of the Old Town take five minutes, and the seafront promenade and beach are a seven-minute walk from the front door. Supermarkets, schools, restaurants and public transport stops surround the block. For a buyer comparing a 3 bedroom top floor apartment in Marbella against suburban complexes, the trade-off is clear: you give up resort grounds in exchange for walking to the beach and market without starting a car.
