Interior Description
On the entrance level, the duplex opens into a bright living room with an open-plan kitchen, creating a sociable heart to the home. Additionally, a guest toilet on this level adds day-to-day convenience for owners and visitors alike. Wide doors lead from the living area onto the terrace, allowing natural light to flow in and extending the usable living space. Meanwhile, the lower floor is dedicated to rest and privacy, with two generous bedrooms, each benefiting from its own bathroom. This layout works well for sharing, guests or a small family, as everyone enjoys their own bathroom and a sense of separation from the main living zone. Although the kitchen and bathrooms would benefit from updating, the existing structure provides a solid base for a thoughtful refurbishment.
Terrace & Views
The property features a wide terrace directly off the living room, offering a pleasant outdoor space in the heart of Benahavís Village. It is well suited to alfresco breakfasts, evening drinks or relaxed meals overlooking the surrounding rooftops and village atmosphere. Furthermore, the terrace enhances the sense of light and openness inside, acting as an extra room for much of the year thanks to the mild local climate. With some styling and updated furniture, it can easily become a standout feature of the home.
Community & Location
La Pacheca is a quiet, well-established urbanisation in the centre of Benahavís Village, known for its traditional ambience and convenient setting. Residents are only a short stroll from the village’s many restaurants, tapas bars and cafés, as well as local shops and services. Additionally, the wider municipality is one of the wealthiest in Spain, with well-maintained streets, good infrastructure and access to excellent sports and leisure facilities. Although the property sits in a mountain-village environment, the beaches and amenities of Marbella, San Pedro and Estepona are only a short drive away, making this a practical base for both permanent living and holidays.

FAQs
- How much are the total purchase costs?
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 purchase price of €245,000 this means allowing around €24,500 for taxes and costs, giving a rough total budget in the region of €269,500. We’ll confirm exact figures for your case once an offer is agreed.
- Is holiday letting allowed?
Holiday letting depends on community statutes and local regulations, and a Junta de Andalucía licence may be required for short-term rentals. We’ll confirm the latest rules for La Pacheca and this specific duplex apartment.
- What parking and storage are included?
As this is a central village property, parking is typically on-street or in nearby public areas. We’ll clarify any residents’ parking arrangements, private storage spaces or additional options available for this apartment.
- What community facilities are there?
La Pacheca is a quiet, low-rise urbanisation with a traditional village feel. We’ll confirm any shared facilities, community rules and service-charge details so you can understand the running costs before viewing.
- What renovation work is needed?
The kitchen and bathrooms would benefit from updating, and there may be cosmetic improvements to consider such as flooring, lighting and decoration. These needs are reflected in the asking price, and we can discuss typical renovation budgets and local contractor options.
