Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located within the Los Flamingos district of Málaga, characterised by an urban density with immediate access to services. It is situated at an elevation of 11 metres above sea level, resulting in a flat gradient towards the coastline. The location provides direct connectivity to the A-7 motorway and is situated 1.3 kilometres from the shoreline.
With six bedrooms and six bathrooms across 520 m², the layout accommodates large households or multi-generational living requirements. The inclusion of a private lift addresses accessibility needs across different floor levels. Private outdoor spaces, including a swimming pool, cater to recreation without reliance on communal facilities.
The building originates from 1970 but has undergone recent renovation, classified as being in excellent condition. The infrastructure includes modern systems such as centralised climate control and a lift. This represents a refurbished existing structure rather than a new-build development, with completion status marked as ready.
The property is a detached villa in an urban environment, meaning it does not offer the secluded isolation of a rural estate. It is not part of a golf resort community, despite regional associations with the name, and does not include on-site commercial services such as shops or restaurants within its private perimeter.
This residence suits households requiring substantial internal space and private outdoor areas within city limits. The proximity to Málaga Airport (7.9 km) and the train station is practical for frequent travellers or professionals commuting within the region. The six-bedroom configuration accommodates families requiring multiple en-suite rooms or home office spaces. The urban location may appeal to those who prefer immediate access to city services over the isolation of countryside living, while still maintaining a private perimeter. It is also suitable for those seeking a renovated property ready for immediate occupation without the delays associated with new construction.
The property features a high specification of interior fittings, including a Siematic kitchen equipped with Gaggenau appliances and Dekton worktops. Flooring consists of natural wood, with custom solid wood carpentry throughout. Sanitary installations include Villeroy & Boch ware in bathrooms, complemented by solid surface countertops and walk-in showers with concealed drainage. Technical amenities include underfloor heating in bathrooms, electronic blackout blinds, and LED backlit mirrors, indicating a focus on automated comfort and modern renovation standards.
The property is listed with a price of €4,500,000. This price point positions it within the premium segment of the Málaga market, reflecting the large plot size of 1,302 m² and the 520 m² constructed area in a central location. Prices in this sector typically vary significantly based on specific plot orientation and renovation quality.
Daily life in this location is defined by the convenience of urban proximity balanced with private outdoor space. The immediate vicinity contains a high density of amenities, with 170 restaurants and 129 pharmacies within a 2-kilometre radius. Essential shopping is available 73 metres away, while the La Unión train station at 100 metres facilitates rapid movement to the city centre. The presence of 24 hotels and over 11,000 tourist beds nearby creates a cosmopolitan atmosphere distinct from quieter residential suburbs. The terrain is flat, making walking and cycling practical modes of transport for daily errands. Residents can utilise the private garden and pool for seclusion, while the broader urban environment provides consistent access to healthcare, education, and leisure facilities.
The surrounding infrastructure is comprehensive, supporting a car-optional lifestyle for many daily needs. Within a 2-kilometre radius, there are 24 hotels, 13 primary schools, and 11 secondary schools. Healthcare is well-represented with two health centres and a hospital 642 metres away. The area is served by four public transport lines with 21 stops, enhancing connectivity to the broader Málaga region. The high concentration of dining options (170 restaurants) and cafes (97) provides extensive leisure choices.

While the comparative projects such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar and Lantana Residencial in Mijas are priced around €250,000, this property is positioned at €4,500,000. This price divergence reflects not only the larger surface area (520 m² versus standard apartment sizes) but also the land ownership (1,302 m² private plot) within a central city location. Unlike the off-plan developments in Torre del Mar or Estepona, which offer communal facilities and shared amenities, this villa provides private infrastructure, including a 74 m² swimming pool and a private lift. The location differentiates itself by offering proximity to the Málaga airport (7.9 km) and the city centre, contrasting with the more remote, car-dependent settings of the comparable Costa del Sol developments.
