A two-bedroom apartment 400 metres from El Padrón beach in Estepona, in a gated development of 60 homes spread across six low-rise buildings with gardens between them. 101 m² inside and a 47 m² terrace — close to half the floor area again in outdoor space, which is the ratio that decides whether a two-bedroom apartment on this coast feels generous or tight. The layout is open: living room and kitchen in one bright volume opening straight onto the terrace through full-height glazing. Two bathrooms. One or two private parking spaces and a storeroom in the underground garage. The six-building, low-rise format matters more than it sounds. It means no tower, no lift queues, gardens at eye level instead of a car park, and neighbours you can count. Four hundred metres is a walk to the sand, not a drive — and the shops, restaurants and everyday services of this stretch of Estepona are within the same walk. The old town and the marina are a few minutes by car, Marbella around twenty-five. For a buyer who wants to leave the car parked most days and still be minutes from the beach, the position does most of the work.
