1-Bedroom Apartment to Renovate in El Paraiso Alto, Benahavis

- Bright living and dining area with direct access to a compact terrace and open views.
- Separate kitchen with adjoining laundry space and practical layout for an easy redesign.
- Double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a full bathroom beside the sleeping area.
- Secure gated community with two swimming pools, landscaped gardens, gym, lift and CCTV.
- Private parking space within the complex for convenient everyday living.
- Peaceful residential setting surrounded by golf, minutes from El Paraiso Golf, Atalaya Golf and Capanes del Golf.

Interior Description
Inside, the apartment offers a straightforward layout that makes refurbishment simple and rewarding. The entrance opens into a combined living and dining area that feels welcoming and bright, thanks to its upper-floor position and access to the terrace. Meanwhile, the separate kitchen includes a useful laundry space, giving you the option to modernise the cabinetry, upgrade appliances or even explore a more open-plan configuration if desired. The double bedroom features a built-in wardrobe and sits close to the full bathroom, creating a comfortable and functional sleeping zone. As a result, cosmetic updates such as new flooring, fresh paint, a modern bathroom and updated kitchen finishes could quickly transform this property into a stylish, low-maintenance base in Benahavís.
Terrace & Views
The living area opens onto a compact terrace that still provides a pleasant outdoor corner for a morning coffee or an evening drink. From this elevated position you enjoy open views across the communal gardens and surrounding greenery, which enhances the sense of calm. Moreover, the terrace adds a valuable extension of the living space once refurbished with fresh tiles, plants and comfortable seating. With thoughtful styling, this outdoor area can become a cosy spot to relax after a day on the golf course or at the beach.
Community & Amenities
Royal Marbella Golf Resort is a secure gated community designed for easy, resort-style living in Benahavís. Residents enjoy two outdoor swimming pools surrounded by landscaped gardens, a gym for daily workouts and lift access to each level, which helps day-to-day convenience. Additionally, CCTV surveillance and controlled access provide extra peace of mind, especially if you plan to use the apartment as a lock-up-and-leave holiday home. A private parking space within the complex adds further practicality. The wider El Paraiso Alto area offers quick access to several golf courses, everyday services, restaurants and the coastal road, so you remain close to both Estepona and Marbella while still benefiting from a tranquil residential atmosphere.

FAQs
- What makes this apartment a good renovation project? The layout is simple, the structure is solid and most upgrades are cosmetic, so you can focus on modern finishes, a refreshed kitchen and bathroom, and improved storage to create a contemporary home in Benahavís.
- Is it better suited as a holiday home or a permanent residence? It works well for both; the resort facilities and parking suit a lock-up-and-leave holiday base, while the peaceful setting and easy access to shops, schools and golf also support comfortable year-round living.
- How close are shops, restaurants and the beach? You are positioned between Estepona and Marbella, so everyday services and dining options are only a short drive away, while several local beaches and San Pedro de Alcántara’s promenade are also within convenient driving distance.
- What community facilities and parking does Royal Marbella Golf Resort offer? The complex provides two outdoor pools, landscaped gardens, a gym, lift access, CCTV and a private parking space, which together deliver secure, low-stress living in El Paraiso Alto.
- How much should I allow for purchase costs on this property? As a guide in Andalucía, allow roughly ~10% on a resale property (7% ITP + approx. 3% total for solicitor, notary and registry fees). On a price of €250,000, that suggests around €25,000 in taxes and costs, so a total budget of approximately €275,000; we’ll confirm exact figures for your case.
