This property represents a detached villa located in the Bel Air district of Málaga, featuring 210 m² of built space on a 754 m² plot. The home includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Positioned in the urban fringe of the Costa del Sol, the property is 44 km from the international airport and in close proximity to essential amenities such as supermarkets and dining options. The villa faces southeast, offering a balance of morning sun and afternoon shade on the terrace.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The residence is situated in an established urban environment in Bel Air. According to available geo-data, commercial facilities and dining venues are located within a radius of a few hundred meters. This setting provides immediate access to daily necessities without dependence on long-distance transport.
With 210 m² of construction and a 754 m² plot, this project offers outdoor space combined with interior living areas. The presence of three bedrooms and two bathrooms makes the home suitable for permanent residency or extended stays by multiple occupants or families.
This is an existing home (resale). The condition is described as 'Good'. For specific details regarding construction date and renovations, please refer to the technical dossier. There is no new build phase or construction timeline involved.
The elevation at 146 meters above sea level means the beach is approximately 2.7 km away as the crow flies, but due to terrain slopes (5.4%), the driving distance is greater. The property does not have an elevator, which is relevant for residents with limited mobility given the elevation changes in the area.

This project fits households seeking an existing home with immediate occupancy and no construction lead times. The location suits individuals who value proximity to golf courses and beaches while accepting the necessity of driving. For winter residents, the climate with an average of 3,881 sun hours per year offers sufficient comfort. The distance to international schools (English International College at 7.6 km) also makes the location relevant for families with school-aged children.
The villa features various amenities indicating a finish focused on comfort and convenience. Air conditioning (hot and cold) and a fireplace are present for temperature control. The kitchen is fully fitted. Outdoor living is facilitated by a private swimming pool and a barbecue area. Technical features include fiber optic internet, satellite TV, and an alarm system. The garden is designed as 'Easy Maintenance', suitable for second-home owners.
The asking price for this villa is set at €1,350,000. This is a fixed price indication for this specific property; there is no variation in price tiers as seen in new developments. The price reflects the combination of plot size, living area, and location in an established neighborhood.
The living environment in Bel Air is characterized by a mix of full-time residents and tourist traffic, situated on the fringe of the coastal strip. At 146 meters in altitude, residents have views of the surrounding mountains and the sea. The proximity of El Paraíso Golf Club (1.3 km away) indicates a setting where recreational golf is a key activity. The immediate street environment contains commercial activity, providing a level of vibrancy. In the evening, the focus shifts to the private grounds of the villa, with the southeast-facing terrace serving as the central living space. The presence of public transport (4 lines nearby) increases mobility for those without a car, though a vehicle remains practical given distances to larger towns like Fuengirola.
The immediate surroundings offer a range of amenities within walking distance. Within a 1 km radius, there is a supermarket and various dining options. Daily groceries can be done on foot. The nearest beaches are Playa del Saladillo (approx. 880 m as the crow flies) and Playa del Sol Villacana (1.3 km). Due to the elevation and slope, this is not a casual walk; transportation is required. The presence of multiple golf courses in the vicinity (El Paraíso, La Siesta) defines the recreational identity of this area.
The map shows the location of the villa in relation to the coastline and golf courses. Note the contour lines indicating the slope of the terrain towards the coast. The infrastructure around the project distinguishes between access roads and slow-traffic routes.
Bel Air lies in the expanding corridor between Málaga and Marbella. It is an area characterized by an urbanized coastal strip that gradually transitions into mountainous terrain. Compared to the historic center of Málaga, this area is quieter and focused on residential tourism. The location is closer to Marbella than to Málaga city, steering social and commercial dynamics toward the western Costa del Sol.
The villa is accessible via the regional road network. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is located at a distance of 44 km, implying a drive time of approximately 30-40 minutes. Fuengirola train station is 8.6 km away. For emergencies, the nearest hospital is located 4.0 km away. A pharmacy is relatively close at 358 meters. Public transport is reasonably covered for a suburban area with 4 lines and 50 stops nearby.

At 146 meters above sea level, the property sits in a zone benefiting from sea breezes without being directly on the coastline, ensuring cooler nights than the lowlands. The climate features an average annual temperature of 17.9°C. With over 3,800 sun hours annually and a 4-month swimming season (water temp ≥ 20°C), the location is favorable for outdoor activities. The southeast orientation provides protection from the hottest afternoon sun in summer.

Although not directly seaside, the beaches form a significant part of the living area. The closest beach, Playa de Calahonda - Riviera, is 2.7 km away. These beaches, as well as the marinas of Puerto Cabopino (4.0 km) and Fuengirola (9.1 km), are accessible by car. For sports enthusiasts, the proximity of El Paraíso Golf Club (1.3 km) and various sports centers (Finca Naundrup, Club del Sol) is a relevant factor.

Compared to projects like Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) and Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000), this villa sits in a higher price bracket (€1,350,000). This difference is partly explained by the property type: this is a detached villa on its own plot, whereas the comparison projects are often apartments or townhouses in complexes. Additionally, the plot size of 754 m² in Bel Air is substantial compared to typical apartments in nearby urban centers like Fuengirola. Compared to Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720,000), this home offers more privacy and outdoor space, but without the shared facilities of a large resort. The location in Bel Air is quieter than central Fuengirola but requires driving for beach access.
