3 bedroom Apartment in Almuñécar

GREAT OPPORTUNITY, PRICE REDUCED FROM 199,900€ TO 185,000€!!
Bright corner apartment in the centre of Almuñécar, 2 minutes to the beach.

Well-planned and well-maintained apartment on the second floor of a building in good condition, elevator available. Located in the centre of Almuñécar, within walking distance to everything you need. You can reach the lovely beach in 2 minutes, with everything it has to offer. Living space of 99,5 sqm.

Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with laundry room. Large living room with lots of light and a French balcony, a French balcony is also available in two of the bedrooms. All windows and sliding doors to the balconies have aluminium profiles and Climalit glass, which insulates against sound, cold and heat. There are also blinds outside the windows and sliding doors.

The surrounding area offers everything you need, bank, shops, restaurants, bars, supermarket etc. Almuñécar is one hour from Malaga airport by car or taxi, there are also regular bus services from Malaga to Almuñécar. During the winter months you have only an hour and a half drive to Granada and skiing in the Sierra Nevada, the best of both worlds.

Area
Almuñécar has a fascinating historical past. This is very much in evidence in the Old Town, an attractive mix of typical Andalusian houses, bars, shops and al fresco restaurants among its small squares and steep, winding lanes. Founded by the Phoenicians who set up a fish curing industry here, it has a working Roman aqueduct, the medieval Castle of San Miguel, an architectural museum in a cave house; a Columbarium (a family pantheon) and the remains of a Phoenician fish salting factory.

Situated on a hill between two rivers and backed by the glorious Sierra Nevada mountains, the town is short on flat building land, so there are no large apartment blocks like those one the Spanish coast. Combine that with the pale grey, shingle-sanded beaches, you get a different type of tourist. The rocky outcrops, small coves and headlands are popular with divers, the cliffs of Maro Cerro Gordo are popular with hikers and the river Rio Verde is great for canoeing. You can ski in the winter and bathe in the waters of Playa de San Cristobal in the summer.

There’s an alternative vibe to some of the beach bars that thrum with lifelong into the summer nights and thriving art galleries in the mostly pedestrianised town.

The subtropical climate and verdant valleys are home to a cache of tropical crops from mangos to avocados and kiwis to figs. Many of which feature in the local cuisine, with cactus ice cream and almond desserts regional specialities.

Community
There is an established expat community in Almuñécar, a mix of mostly British and Scandinavians. Although the high season is abuzz with tourists, the town significantly quietens down from October to April.

Property
This is a town for lovers of traditional, whitewashed villas. Great value apartments are available in nearby urbanisations like the Costa Banana, which is only 10 minutes’ walk to the centre of town and 15 minutes’ walk to the beach of San Cristobal.

Amenities
There is a post office and police station in town and plenty of choices of banks, gyms, playgrounds and supermarkets. Olivares on Calle Mariana Pineda stocks international supermarket brands and the indoor municipal market sells local produce between 9am and 2pm Monday to Saturday.

Transport
Málaga airport is closer than Granada airport but both are about a 90 minute drive. Both towns and airports are accessible by bus to and from Almuñécar town centre.

Health
Centro de Salud de Almuñécar Medical and Health Center and Centro de Salud La Herradura are the Health Centre options. There is a 24-hour emergency service at Intermedical Suarez Saavedra Almuñécar. You’ll find bilingual doctors at the Vithas Salud Almuñécar private clinic.

Cost of Living
Produce is in abundance here, so eating out and purchasing groceries is much cheaper than Northern Europe. Housing, food and personal care (pharmacies, hairdressing, cosmetics etc.) are even better value than Málaga or Marbella, for example.
