Nestled in Benalmádena, this corner penthouse embodies relaxed Mediterranean living: sunlit rooms, generous terraces and sweeping sea views that frame day-to-day life. Presented by JMA Prime Estate, the home is both an invitation to the coast and a case study in how a local agency curates meaningful options for international buyers.

Discovering the Benalmádena penthouse

This three-bedroom, 122 m² interior penthouse (completed in 2022) stretches into outdoor living with a 42 m² main terrace and a 110 m² rooftop solarium—altogether about 290 m² of living experience. Priced at EUR 1,350,000, it balances high-quality finishes and modern conveniences—private lift access, air conditioning, and a two‑space garage—with the rare amenity of expansive, privately oriented terraces in a prime coastal location.

Highlights at a glance: Spectacular infinity pool with Mediterranean views; private rooftop solarium for dining and sunsets; bright open-plan living that slides onto the terrace; two parking spaces and storage; short walk to Carvajal Beach and seafront promenade.

How the home feels — a sensory tour

Step inside and the corner position is immediately evident: cross breezes, generous natural light and a sense of openness that photographs capture beautifully. As shown in the images, the living room opens through wide glazing to the terrace—blurring the line between indoors and outdoor living. The rooftop solarium, shown in the photos, is conceived as an extension of the social life of the home: dining, lounging and panoramic coastline views become everyday rituals rather than occasional treats.

Materials, finishes and feel

The interior reads modern and warm: high-quality joinery, large-format glazing that frames the sea and textured surfaces that age gracefully. For international buyers who value low‑maintenance longevity, these finishes offer immediate comfort and a straightforward path to seasonal rental or lock-up‑and‑leave living.

JMA Prime Estate — local insight, international service

Based in Fuengirola and four years into the market, JMA Prime Estate blends local knowledge with a service model designed for buyers abroad: clear presentation, thorough listings and hands-on support from viewing to closing. Their overall rating on local platforms sits at 74.21/100 and client feedback emphasizes responsiveness and a calm, professional approach—qualities that matter when you’re buying from another country.

What JMA brings to international buyers: multilingual communication, curated neighbourhood insight, help with local processes (utilities, community rules, parking and storage logistics), and management of virtual viewings or scheduled in-person tours.

Why this penthouse illustrates their approach

This Benalmádena corner penthouse exemplifies what JMA seeks for international clients: modern construction completed recently (2022), strong outdoor space rare for the coast, practical features such as private lift access and covered parking, and a location within easy reach of beaches and local amenities. JMA’s listing highlights these selling points clearly and supplies the photographic narrative prospective buyers need—showcasing the sea views, pool and rooftop in ways that help buyers imagine life here before they step on a plane.

Benalmádena — context and market sense for buyers

Benalmádena sits comfortably between Málaga and Fuengirola: a balance of lively waterfront, local fishing-port charm and commuter access to larger urban centres. For international buyers seeking Mediterranean rhythm without the extremes of larger resort towns, the area offers daily conveniences, reputable local dining, and easy access to Málaga airport. Properties close to Carvajal Beach, like this penthouse, command attention because walkability to the promenade and chiringuitos is a rare convenience that sustains both lifestyle value and rental appeal.

Buyer considerations in Benalmádena: seasonal demand patterns, the premium for outdoor terraces and sea views, proximity to transport lines, and community amenities such as pools and gyms that support year‑round comfort.

Sustainability and stewardship in practice

While this modern community focuses on contemporary comfort, buyers with eco-conscious priorities should note easy, practical steps to reduce footprint: efficient glazing on the large windows, shaded terraces that lower cooling demand, and the potential to add discreet solar on rooftop areas (subject to community rules). JMA Prime Estate is well placed to advise buyers on local sustainability options—permitting for modest rooftop systems, efficient appliances for rentals, and community-level energy practices that preserve long-term running costs.

Questions to ask when considering similar homes

Ask about: community energy policies and any restrictions on rooftop installations; insulation and glazing specifications; typical utility costs across seasons; rental history if you plan to let; details of parking and storage rights.

Practical next steps for international buyers

If the idea of coastal living with generous outdoor rooms appeals, begin with a conversation that clarifies your priorities: full‑time residency, a seasonal retreat or an income property. JMA Prime Estate can provide a tailored briefing pack, arrange virtual walkthroughs that focus on the terrace, solarium and views (as shown in the photos), and outline the costs and timelines specific to Benalmádena.

For buyers who travel for viewings: request a schedule that aligns showings with golden hour light to gauge the solarium and terrace, and ask the agent for community meeting minutes to understand maintenance plans for the pool and communal areas.

JMA Prime Estate’s role is practical and relational: they present clear, well‑photographed listings, translate local realities for international clients, and support the stewardship steps that help a home retain value over time. This Benalmádena penthouse is an expression of that approach—an easy-to-manage modern dwelling with rare outdoor scale on the Costa del Sol.

If you’d like to learn more or arrange a viewing, reach out to JMA Prime Estate for the full listing pack and a detailed market note on Benalmádena. The images included with the listing reveal the light-filled interiors, terrace life and rooftop panorama—perfect starting points for imagining a Mediterranean home built around sea, sky and sensible stewardship.
