An elegant two-bedroom apartment in Buenavista, one of the established communities in La Quinta, with a panorama that takes in the Mediterranean coastline, the golf valley and the mountains behind. 140 m² for two bedrooms is the detail that defines this apartment. It is not a two-bed flat; it is a generously proportioned home that happens to have two bedrooms, which is exactly what a couple or a part-year owner usually wants and almost never finds. The space went into the living areas rather than into rooms nobody uses. The plan centres on an open-plan living and dining room with a fireplace, opening directly onto a large covered terrace that works as a second living room. Floor-to-ceiling glazing fills the interior with light and keeps the view in the room. The kitchen is separate and fully equipped, with a practical utility room beside it. Both bedrooms are large, with bespoke fitted wardrobes and well-appointed bathrooms, the principal as a full suite. Covered terrace is the right word: you can sit out from morning through to sunset rather than retreating indoors at two o'clock. Buenavista itself is quiet, with landscaped gardens and a large communal pool. La Quinta is a hillside address surrounded by golf courses, minutes from Nueva Andalucía, Puerto Banús, Marbella and the beaches. It is a drive down to everything — that is the trade for the privacy and for a view nobody can build in front of. For a buyer who wants scale and a view over room count, this is the format that delivers it. 140 m² built. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, open-plan living with fireplace, large covered terrace, panoramic sea, golf and mountain views, communal pool and gardens.
