This elegant townhouse sits in a secure gated community close to golden beaches and leading golf courses. Designed across three levels, it offers light-filled spaces, private outdoor areas, and refined modern finishes for a lifestyle that blends comfort and sophistication.
Step inside to a bright open-plan living area with a designer kitchen and seamless access to the terrace and garden. Large windows flood the home with natural light and create a smooth flow between indoors and out. The property includes two spacious bedrooms, with the option to add a third, and three stylish bathrooms. Every level offers outdoor living, from the private garden to the terrace and balcony with relaxing sea and garden views.
A private rooftop solarium crowns the home — ideal for entertaining, sunbathing, or dining under the stars. Residents enjoy landscaped communal gardens, a serene pool, and secure parking. Townhouse Targa combines clean design with a prime Marbella East location, making it the perfect choice for discerning buyers seeking a modern coastal retreat or a smart investment on the Costa del Sol
Enjoy open views to the Mediterranean, a short walk to the sea, and the freedom to rent part or all of the villa — with tourist license already in place. This is a spacious villa in Marbella East that offers flexibility, rental income, and long-term potential.
The main house has 4 bedrooms, plus an extra room with its own ensuite bathroom that could be easily used as a 5th bedroom, office, or guest space. On the lower level, there are 2 fully independent studios, each with their own entrance, kitchen, and bathroom — perfect for short-term rentals or guests.
The property has a valid tourist license, allowing it to be legally rented short- or long-term, either as a whole or in separate units (accommodating up to 14 guests in total). The two studios alone generate over €55,000 per year through platforms like Airbnb and Booking. The entire villa can realistically generate an average of €10,000 per month, reaching up to €120,000 gross per year.
Inside, the house is bright and open, with a fireplace, underfloor heating, A/C in all rooms, and 30 solar panels to reduce electricity costs. Outside you’ll find a lush tropical-style garden, private pool, large garage (fits several cars), and room to expand — either by adding another level or building a separate one-floor house (subject to approval).
The location is another plus: 5 minutes walking to the beach, with easy access to Marbella center. The area is developing fast — the coastal walkway is being renovated, making the beachside experience even better, and there are new projects happening nearby that add value to the area.
Since this is an updated older property, there are a few important legal details to understand before visiting. All documentation is ready and will be shared in advance.
If it sounds like what you're looking for — reach out. I’ll give you all the info and show you around.

Picturesque semi-detached village home with a garden and panoramic views—refined, sunlit, and perfectly placed.
Built as a modern new home just 20 years ago, this charming two-storey villa marries spacious open-plan living with the warm character of an Andalucian country house. Located within the municipality in Cortes de la Frontera, in the riverside hamlet of Cañada del Real Tesoro (Estación de Cortes), the property sits on a tranquil cul-de-sac, two streets back from the River Guardario.
As you approach, a stylish little iron gate opens to a pretty front porch and the welcoming front door. Inside, a bright, airy hallway leads you into a generous open-plan living area. Here, a clever sunken lounge sits at the heart of the space, with a cozy fireplace anchoring the room. Behind the lounge, the expansive open-plan kitchen delivers a true Andalucian farmhouse feel, with a dining zone flowing seamlessly from the kitchen. This flexible living space is ideal for family life, entertaining, and everyday living.A guest WC is thoughtfully located off the living area for convenience.
On the ground level, two exterior doors extend the living outside. One set of double wooden doors opens onto a vine-clad terrace that runs the length of the house, giving access to a generous 100m2 garden planted with olive trees and fruit trees. Stunning views from the garden to the countryside . The second wooden door sits beside the kitchen and opens to a small courtyard, from which there is a dedicated storeroom housing the laundry and general tools/bikes, plus an external drying area and a covered wood store.
A wide staircase leads to the first floor. The master suite is a sanctuary in itself, boasting an en-suite bathroom and a Juliet balcony with sweeping, panoramic views of the Serrania de Ronda countryside. Two more substantial double bedrooms share a large family bathroom. At the end of the hall, an open-plan, flexible room is currently used as a fourth bedroom or a home office, offering superb adaptability for your lifestyle. All rooms have wonderful views
The house and garden are fully enclosed by pristine white walls, ensuring privacy and a clean, stylish backdrop. At the far end of the garden, a gate provides easy access for a small car. The garden is flat and easily capable of accommodating a pool—a 7m x 4m pool would fit comfortably, and, as an urban plot, planning permission would be straightforward.
Sustainability and low running costs are a genuine feature here. Two years ago, the current owners invested in sophisticated solar PV panels and batteries, at a cost of €18,000. The property now runs entirely on its own electricity supply, delivering very low running costs and ample power to heat a pool if you choose to add one in the future.
