Nestled in Benalmádena, property HQL-RSMQG represents a considered example of contemporary coastal living on the Costa del Sol. This corner penthouse, offered through JMA Prime Estate, balances generous outdoor rooms with modern finishes, and is presented with the quiet discretion international buyers expect.

Discovering the penthouse

Set within a recent development completed in 2022, the penthouse spans 122 m² of interior living with a main terrace of 42 m² and a rooftop solarium of 110 m², giving a total exterior area of 152 m² and an overall footprint that reads as nearly 290 m² of practical, private outdoor space. Priced at EUR 1,350,000, the apartment delivers three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a guest toilet — proportions that make it equally suited to full‑time residence or a lock‑up‑and‑leave coastal home.

As shown in the property photographs, daylight is a defining characteristic: the corner position affords cross‑ventilation and expansive sea views through large glazing that opens directly on to the terrace. The images capture the seamless flow from an open‑plan living and kitchen area to the terrace — a design intent that favours indoor/outdoor living rather than mere balcony staging.

Why this penthouse matters to discerning buyers

Beyond the headline figures, this penthouse exemplifies several qualities international buyers typically seek on the Costa del Sol: considered orientation, clear separation between guest and private wings, serviceable storage and parking, and outdoor rooms with a usable winter and summer aspect. The rooftop solarium — photographed in the listing — offers panoramic coastline views that turn the property from a standard seafront flat into an entertainer’s home with genuine privacy.

Notable features

Swimming pool with Mediterranean outlook; private garage with two spaces and storage room; private lift access directly into the apartment; furnished interiors, air conditioning, elevator; bright corner aspect and quality finishes from 2022 construction.

JMA Prime Estate: local expertise, international reach

Based in Fuengirola and operating for four years, JMA Prime Estate specialises across a broad spectrum — from new construction and holiday homes to investment and rental management. Their overall platform rating (74.21/100) and an average client score of 5 reflect consistent client satisfaction for agents in the region. For international buyers, the agency’s work is notable for three complementary strengths: market calibration, documentation discipline, and discreet presentation.

In this instance, JMA Prime Estate positioned the Benalmádena penthouse with clear asset logic: emphasise the exceptional outdoor provision, the corner aspect that increases natural light and privacy, and the practicalities — parking and storage — that matter to overseas purchasers who value turnkey readiness. The listing materials (including the photographs) are curated to show useable space rather than abstract staging, a sign of an agency that understands what sells to experienced buyers.

Understanding Benalmádena through this property

Carvajal Beach and the promenade lie some 600 metres from the property: proximity that allows daily routines of morning walks, beachside lunches and convenient access to Fuengirola and Málaga airport. Benalmádena’s appeal is both practical and atmospheric — a coastline town with established services, marina life a short drive away, and layered residential pockets that reward patient selection. For international buyers, this penthouse’s walkable relationship to the seafront is a tangible lifestyle proposition rather than a marketing claim.

Market insight: properties that combine generous, usable terraces with secure covered parking and storage command a premium in Benalmádena because such outdoor space is scarce near the promenade; the rooftop solarium here materially changes the valuation case, creating opportunities for year‑round enjoyment and rental appeal when let short‑term to discerning holiday guests.

How JMA Prime Estate enhances the purchase experience

JMA Prime Estate’s approach for international clients combines clear documentation, curated viewings, and post‑purchase support. For example, the agency arranges viewings that foreground sightlines and circulation — the very aspects the listing photography highlights — and provides practical dossiers that include community rules, running costs and local service contacts. Their Fuengirola base and regional network shorten response times for negotiation, conveyancing and rental set‑up, reducing distance and administrative friction for buyers abroad.

Practical checklist for buyers viewing similar penthouses

1) Confirm exact exterior measurements and orientation — usable terrace area changes value materially. 2) Verify parking and storage allocation and access to the private lift. 3) Request full community accounts and confirm maintenance schedules for pool and gym. 4) Inspect glazing and shading solutions for summer comfort and winter thermal performance. 5) Review short‑term rental rules if you plan to let seasonally.

Closing reflections and next steps

This Benalmádena penthouse is best understood as a composed offering: modern construction, abundant outdoor rooms, and a corner aspect that reads as intentional rather than incidental. JMA Prime Estate’s presentation and local knowledge turn those qualities into a coherent purchase narrative for international buyers who value both the practicalities of coastal ownership and the quieter pleasures of day‑to‑day life by the sea. The images accompanying the listing reveal proportional rooms, panoramic terraces and amenity spaces that confirm the property’s suitability as either a principal home or an assured holiday investment.
