The property features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and enjoys a southwest orientation with views of the surrounding mountains.

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in Alhaurín Golf, a residential area integrated into the mountainous landscape of the Valle del Guadalhorce. The location is inland, meaning residents reside in a green, hilly environment rather than directly on the coastline. The setting is characterized by the presence of the golf course and woodlands, providing a relatively quiet position compared to the busier coastal towns.
The layout includes a living room with an open kitchen on the main floor, leading to a terrace. There is a bedroom on the ground floor and a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom on the upper floor. Additionally, a lower floor is accessible via a private entrance, offering flexibility for use as a garage, studio, or third bedroom. Daily grocery shopping requires travel, as the nearest supermarket is 3.5 km away.
Although listed as a resale property, the available information indicates the home has been recently modernized. Installations have been upgraded, including the kitchen with fitted appliances and air conditioning units. The condition is described as good, implying the property is move-in ready without the need for immediate major renovations.
The location requires the use of a car for all daily transportation, as amenities are spread out. The property does not have a private pool but utilizes a communal swimming pool. The distance to the coast and beaches is approximately 10 kilometers (as the crow flies), meaning a drive is necessary for seaside visits. Due to the altitude (349m), winter nights can be cooler than at sea level.

This property is suitable for buyers actively seeking a home in an 'urbanization' with communal facilities who wish to escape the coastal bustle. The presence of a ground-floor room and flexible lower floor allows the home to adapt to various family compositions. For golfers, the location is relevant due to the direct proximity of the course designed by Severiano Ballesteros.
The home features a description indicating solid finishing. Fitted kitchen appliances from Bosch have been installed. Elements such as exposed brick walls and a wood-burning fireplace contribute to the characteristic ambiance. Windows have been upgraded to high-quality double glazing, and air conditioning is present for both cooling and heating.
The asking price starts from €355,000. Given the size of 129 m² and the presence of two bedrooms and two bathrooms, this positions the property in a segment for buyers seeking more space than an apartment typically offers. Compared to coastal projects in Fuengirola, this price offers a larger floor area for a lower price per m², reflecting the inland location.
Living in Alhaurín Golf means residing in a 'pueblo' style environment with ample space and greenery. The immediate surroundings are quiet and car-free in the residential zones, featuring communal areas with a pool. The daily reality involves driving; whether for groceries or dining out, a vehicle is essential. The location at the foot of the mountains offers shelter and views of the 'Barranco Blanco' area. It is a location focused on tranquility and nature, with the golf course as an immediate neighbor.
The Alhaurín Golf environment is defined by the golf course and mountainous nature. The proximity to forests and viewpoints like 'Mirador del Cerro Alaminos' (2.7 km) offers opportunities for hiking and enjoying scenic overlooks. The atmosphere is rural and quiet. It is an environment primarily inhabited by tourists and expats who appreciate the space and the golf facilities.
The map shows the position of Alhaurín Golf in the mountainous hinterland. The blue lines represent the distance to the coast (Fuengirola), which is approximately 10 km as the crow flies. The map also indicates the airport is a short distance away, but that this is a car-oriented environment.
Alhaurín Golf is located inland, between the city of Málaga (east) and Marbella (west). The location is advantageous for those wanting access to the cities without living in the city center. The distance to Málaga airport is relatively short at 19 km, making it attractive for frequent travelers.
Amenities such as supermarkets and pharmacies are located approximately 3 to 3.5 km away, accessible by car. The coastal town of Fuengirola with its beaches is at a straight-line distance of 10 km. Málaga Airport is accessible at 19 km (as the crow flies). Given the distances, a car is necessary; public transport is limited and not suitable for frequent use.

Compared to coastal projects, such as Astra Homes in Fuengirola (starting at €364,000), this property offers significantly more living space (129 m²) for a similar introductory price. While coastal options often involve apartments, this region offers the possibility of a family home with more outdoor space. However, the trade-off is the distance to the sea; in Fuengirola or at Waterfall Residences (starting at €720,000), one lives directly by the beach, whereas here daily amenities depend on the car. For €355,000, this is a competitive option in the golf sector of the Costa del Sol.
