A top-floor home with a 38 square metre covered terrace

A 38 square metre covered terrace looks down into mature communal gardens from the living room of this 4 bedroom top floor apartment in Puerto Banús. Because the outdoor area has a roof over it, the table and chairs can stay out in the summer heat and through winter rain without needing to be packed away. Having the garden trees directly below gives the terrace a green outlook rather than a view into another block's windows.

Inside the 227 square metre built area

The 227 square metres of built area divide into a large living room, an independent kitchen with a utility area, four bedrooms and three bathrooms. A separate kitchen keeps cooking noise and smells away from the main sitting area, while the dedicated utility room means laundry machines do not take up cupboard space. Underfoot, the property has natural marble flooring, and there is built-in storage fitted throughout the rooms. The apartment offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms, making it practical when family or guests stay at the same time.

The terrace and what the community includes

Downstairs, residents share mature communal gardens and a swimming pool inside an established gated community with 24-hour security. Older planting matters in a coastal development because full-grown trees provide real shade around the pool and screen the buildings from the street. Round-the-clock security and gated entry mean someone is on site when the flat is left empty between visits, which is a practical advantage for a second home.

Condition, renovation and location

This resale 4 bedroom top floor apartment in Puerto Banús is in working order to be used straight away, though the agent notes it is also a solid candidate for a contemporary renovation. A buyer viewing the property should check whether they want to keep the existing marble floors and separate kitchen or open the rooms up, and verify the community rules on building works before planning changes. Outside the gates, the flat sits near the Puerto Banús marina and the beach, with restaurants, shops, golf courses and daily services within easy reach.
