This property is a detached villa located in Arroyo de la Miel, part of the municipality of Benalmádena. The home offers a living area of 113 m² distributed over two floors, featuring three bedrooms and one bathroom. Situated at an elevation of 120 meters above sea level, the location combines the convenience of an urban environment with proximity to the Mediterranean coastline. The villa is fully furnished and includes a private terrace.
Compared to the new development segment in surrounding areas like Fuengirola and Mijas, this villa in Arroyo de la Miel offers a relatively lower entry price of €320,000. Comparable projects like 'Astra Homes' start from €364,000. A key difference is that this object is an existing home in a fully developed residential neighborhood, whereas comparison projects are often new builds with community amenities like pools. Buyers here choose more living space and authenticity at a lower price, foregoing the luxury facilities of a modern resort.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated within walking distance of the town center of Arroyo de la Miel, where a wide range of amenities is available. The location is central relative to the coastline, with the sea approximately 1.5 km away. Due to the presence of various public transport connections in the immediate vicinity, the location is well-connected without the necessity for daily car use.
The layout provides three bedrooms, making the property suitable for permanent family residence or as a spacious vacation home for multiple guests. The presence of a fully equipped kitchen and a separate utility room supports daily living comfort. The west orientation offers the possibility of evening sun on the terrace.
This is an existing residence with a 'Ready' status. There is no new construction planning or future handover date; the property can be occupied immediately. The structural condition is described as 'Fair', implying there may be maintenance requirements depending on personal living standards.
This project does not offer amenities such as a community pool, gym, or secured gate access, which is common in resort-style new developments. Parking must be found in public spaces. The property is not single-level; the living space is divided across two floors connected by a staircase.
This property suits buyers seeking a permanent home near the coast who do not desire the isolation of a residential estate. The positioning is appropriate for those who prefer central amenities like restaurants and shops within walking distance. It is also a logical option due to public transport proximity for individuals not wishing to be entirely dependent on a car.
The home is described as fully furnished, including kitchen appliances, featuring granite countertops and high-quality cabinetry. The state of maintenance is assessed as 'Fair'. Technical installations include central heating. Standard materials appropriate for the home's construction period were used for bathroom and sanitary ware finishes.
The asking price for this detached villa is set at €320,000. There is no variable price range for different unit types as it is a unique object. Prospective buyers should budget for additional costs such as notary fees, registration, and taxes, standard for residential real estate in Spain.
