An apartment in Río Real, in a setting that has become hard to find in Marbella: mature gardens, real planting and space between the buildings, a few steps from the beach rather than a few streets. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms across 121 m². Terraces open from the living room and from the bedrooms, so the outdoor space is spread through the apartment instead of concentrated on one side — it means a shaded terrace and a sunny one at most hours of the day. The community has a pool, established gardens and private parking. Road access is easy in both directions, which matters more than it sounds on this stretch of coast. Río Real itself sits just east of Marbella town, with the Río Real golf course a few minutes away and La Cañada shopping centre about the same. Marbella's centre is a five-minute drive. The detail most owners here end up valuing: Trocadero Arena is close enough to walk to for lunch or dinner, so an evening out does not require the car. For a buyer who wants the beach, greenery and proximity to Marbella without paying Golden Mile prices, this is the compromise that actually works — and at 121 m² with three bedrooms, it is a genuine home rather than a holiday flat. 121 m² built. Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple terraces, communal pool, mature gardens, private parking.
