Ground Floor Apartment for sale in El Soto de Marbella, Marbella

Natural light and a strong sense of privacy define this elevated and recently refurbished ground floor apartment for sale in La Mairena, Marbella, set within a beautifully maintained residential complex positioned to enjoy open views across the coastline and surrounding landscape.

The interior has been reworked to create a clean, contemporary living environment, with a total built area of 136 sqm arranged for immediate use. A bright open-plan living and dining area forms the core of the apartment, complemented by a newly redesigned kitchen with island, finished in a fresh, modern style. Well-defined lines and a clear, cohesive use of materials run throughout the space.

A glass-enclosed terrace extends the living area into a versatile space suited to everyday use, such as a second lounge or home office, with steps leading down to lawned garden areas that connect with the communal grounds, offering generous outdoor space while retaining a strong sense of privacy. The property includes two well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, finished to a consistent modern standard.

The southwest orientation brings natural light throughout the day, with a fireplace adding warmth in the winter months and air conditioning ensuring comfort year-round. The property is sold fully furnished, aligning well with the option for short-term rentals, which are permitted on the complex, and it includes a private parking space and storage room.

Set within a gated community on a golf course, residents have access to a range of shared facilities, including multiple outdoor pools with open views, a fitness area, spa, sauna, and tennis and padel courts. The clubhouse and 9-hole golf course are within walking distance and form part of the overall setting, with access included within the community fees.

The setting is a key part of the appeal, with La Mairena occupying a distinct position within Marbella East, defined by protected green areas, open space and a quieter atmosphere. The area feels removed from the intensity of the coastline, with mature woodland, far-reaching views and walking and hiking trails shaping a more outdoor-oriented way of living, while still remaining close to the coast. Elviria’s beaches, restaurants and everyday amenities are just minutes away, while Marbella, La Cala de Mijas and Malaga Airport can all be reached with ease, reinforcing a location that combines green surroundings with everyday convenience.

There is an understated ease to the way this apartment works, from the flow of the living space through to the garden and the way the light moves across it throughout the day. It is equally suited to year-round living or as a second home, a combination that underpins the ongoing demand for properties of this nature within La Mairena.
