Vertical living with a basement and a courtyard near the town centre

Chemists, schools, gyms, a health centre, bars, restaurants, bus stops and taxi ranks are all within walking distance of the front door. This resale 3 bedroom townhouse in Estepona measures 200 m² of built area arranged over four levels, including a basement and a second floor given over to terraces.

Ground floor and the sleeping level

The ground floor holds the living-dining area, a kitchen and a guest toilet. Stairs lead up to the first floor, where all three bedrooms and two full bathrooms sit together. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, while there is a second bathroom for the other bedrooms. Keeping the bedrooms on one middle floor leaves the ground floor entirely for daytime use and separates sleeping quarters from the street and the courtyard.

The 55 m² basement

Below the ground floor is a 55 m² basement, which makes up more than a quarter of the total built area. In a town property, an underground room of this footprint takes the pressure off the main living room: it is large enough to serve as a workspace, a gym, a music room or a playroom without encroaching on the bedrooms upstairs. A buyer viewing the house should check natural ventilation, ceiling height and power points down here depending on how the room will be used.

Courtyard, upper terraces and parking

Outdoor space is split across the levels rather than concentrated in one plot. Off the ground floor is a large private courtyard, perfect for family gatherings, al fresco dining or relaxing. At the main entrance, a front terrace has space set aside for parking a car off the road, supplemented by public parking in the surrounding streets. On the second floor, the house opens onto both a sun terrace and a spacious second terrace, giving open-air space above the rooflines away from street level.

Day-to-day routines on foot

Living a few minutes from the centre of Estepona changes how a household uses the car. A 3 bedroom townhouse in Estepona with schools, medical services and public transport on surrounding streets allows older children or visiting relatives to move around independently, while daily errands can be done on foot.
