Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in the Cerros del Aguila neighborhood, characterized by its elevated position at 91meters above sea level. This altitude ensures a vantage point over the coastline while maintaining proximity to essential amenities. The area is a mix of residential urbanization and open green spaces. The coast is approximately 3 kilometers away as the crow flies, providing a balance between sea accessibility and hillside tranquility.
With 9 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, the villa is suited for large-scale living or multi-generational use. Thelayout includes dedicated floors for relaxation, work, and fitness. The property features extensive outdoor areas, including waterfalls flowing into a pool and a river, a secret bar room, and a small stable with a riding pitch. This setup accommodates a desire for privacy and extensive recreational facilities within the property boundaries.
The property is an existing structure in excellent condition, offering immediate occupancy alongside the potentialfor development on the additional plots. The inclusion of over 5 hectares of land presents opportunities for investors to develop residential or commercial projects separately from the main house. The helipad and the terrain suggest infrastructure is in place for high-end usage.
The extensive size of the land (over 5 hectares) necessitates significant maintenance, likely requiringprofessional landscaping services. The hillside location implies a gradient of 3.6% towards the beach, which may impact mobility on foot. While a car is not strictly necessary for all tasks due to nearby shops, the terrain and scale of the property make personal transport highly practical. The volume of the house (1094 m²) results in higher utility and maintenance costs.
This estate fits investors looking for a project with development potential, given the separate commercial andresidential plots. It is equally suitable for families requiring extensive space, such as those with live-in staff or frequent guests. The proximity to golf courses and the helipad appeals to those seeking a high-end, accessible lifestyle. The Moroccan design and unique features like the indoor pool and waterfalls attract buyers looking for character beyond standard modern villas.
The interior features a distinct Moroccan aesthetic, with handmade art on the walls and hand-painteddecorative elements in the pool area. Technical specifications include air conditioning (hot/cold), underfloor heating, and fitted wardrobes. The construction spans five floors, including two basement levels, indicating robust engineering. Outdoor features include landscaped gardens with water features and a riding pitch, requiring complex irrigation and maintenance systems.
The property is marketed with a total asking price of €7,000,000. However, the seller offers flexibility: themain house alone is priced at €4,500,000, while the additional residential and commercial plots are available for €2,500,000 and €1,000,000 respectively. This segmentation allows for tailored investment strategies, whether acquiring the entire estate or specific components.
Living here provides a retreat-like atmosphere with the convenience of urban amenities close by. The 91-meterelevation offers a microclimate often cooler and breezier than the coast. The immediate surroundings are rich in sports facilities, including a paddle club and golf courses, supporting an active lifestyle. The plot's size allows for total privacy; neighbors are not an immediate concern, and the panoramic views ensure a connection to the wider landscape of Málaga.

Cerros del Aguila is strategically located in the Málaga province, offering a midpoint between the bustlingcity of Málaga and the resorts of the Costa del Sol.
