A key-ready, end-of-terrace house in Torremuelle, Benalmadena Costa, completed in 2022 and located directly across the road from the Mediterranean coastline. The property offers 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 214 m² of living space on a 188 m² plot, with south-facing orientation and panoramic sea views. It includes underground parking for up to four cars, access to a communal swimming pool and a padel court, and is sold fully furnished with a short-term rental licence. The asking price is fixed at €850,000. Benalmadena Costa sits between Malaga, 17 km away as the crow flies, and Fuengirola, with Malaga Airport approximately 9 km in a straight line.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in Torremuelle, an established residential pocket of Benalmadena Costa, at roughly 51 metres above sea level. Playa de Santa Ana lies 0.4 km away in a straight line, reached by a path with an average gradient of 9.5%, which is steep. The Cercanias train station of Benalmadena-Arroyo de la Miel is 1.1 km distant, connecting the area to Malaga and Fuengirola.
The layout provides 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across three floors, with fitted wardrobes, a fully fitted kitchen, double glazing, air conditioning and a private terrace. The end-of-terrace position adds extra side exposure and light compared with a mid-terrace unit. Outdoor use is centred on the terraces, the communal pool and the padel court within the complex.
This is an existing home rather than an off-plan development. Construction was completed in 2022 and the property is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. The completion date is indicative and should be confirmed during the purchase process. No further construction phases or future deliveries apply to this listing.
The property is a semi-detached house on a modest 188 m² plot, so private garden space is limited; gardens within the complex are communal. Parking is underground and shared-use capacity is stated at up to four vehicles. The pool and padel court are communal facilities. The slope towards the beach is steep, which affects walking routes to the sea. No private pool is included.

This house fits several recognisable situations. A family seeking a permanent residence on the coast will find 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, five primary schools and thirteen primary and secondary schools in total within easy reach, plus two health centres in the area. Buyers wanting a holiday home within short travelling distance of Northern Europe benefit from Malaga Airport lying roughly 9 km away in a straight line. Investors should note the existing short-term rental licence and the location directly opposite the beach, in an area with 24 hotels and a substantial seasonal visitor base; both short-term and long-term rental routes are possible. Households with multiple vehicles or a combination of cars and motorcycles can use the underground parking capacity of up to four vehicles. The property also suits buyers who prioritise views and light: the south-facing orientation and elevated coastal position give sea views from the main living spaces and terraces. Conversely, buyers requiring a large private garden or a private pool will find that the 188 m² plot and communal facilities do not offer these. The steep gradient to the beach is a further practical consideration for anyone with reduced mobility. A car is useful but not strictly essential, since the train station is 1.1 km away and seven public transport lines serve 50 stops in the area.
The house was completed in 2022, which places it within the current building standards applied on the Costa del Sol. The finish level is documented through the feature list: double glazing throughout, air conditioning, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, a fully fitted kitchen and a fully furnished delivery. The interior photographs show a bathroom with a marble-look countertop and a sea view, indicating that at least the principal bathroom combines natural stone surfaces with the coastal outlook. The three-floor layout distributes living space vertically, with the garage on the lower level accessed via a spiral staircase, as visible in the imagery; this is a space-efficient but notably compact connection between garage and living floors that buyers should view in person. The condition is listed as excellent, consistent with a 2022 completion and residential rather than rental-only use. Technical provisions include WiFi infrastructure and standard modern electrical installations. The underground garage accommodates up to four vehicles, an above-average provision for this property type and location, where street parking near the beachfront is under pressure in high season. Buyers should still arrange an independent technical survey, as with any resale property, to verify installations, waterproofing of terraces and the functioning of the air conditioning system. Documentation of the short-term rental licence should also be checked with the local authority during due diligence.
The property has a fixed asking price of €850,000. It is an existing, completed home finished in 2022 and delivered key-ready, including furniture and a fully fitted kitchen, so no separate furnishing budget is required. There is no price list with varying unit types, as would be the case with a new-build development. For regional context, new-build projects elsewhere on the Costa del Sol currently start from around €205,000 in Mijas, €269,950 in Torre del Mar and €321,000 in Estepona; those figures concern smaller apartments and are not directly comparable with a furnished 214 m² beachside house with sea views. Availability is immediate, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life in this Torremuelle house is organised over three floors, with the principal living spaces oriented south towards the Mediterranean. The sea lies across the road; the nearest beach, Playa de Santa Ana, is 0.4 km as the crow flies, with Playa Malapesquera and Playa de Bil Bil both around 0.7 km away. The descent to the coast has an average gradient of 9.5%, so the walk back up requires some effort, particularly in summer. The end-of-terrace position means the house has open space on one side, which improves light and reduces direct neighbour contact compared with a mid-terrace property. The terraces function as the main outdoor rooms: with a south-facing orientation they receive sun for most of the day, making them usable from breakfast through to the evening. Within a 2 km radius the area counts 192 restaurants, 43 cafes, 28 pharmacies, 22 banks and 8 dentists, so day-to-day errands do not require long trips. The surrounding neighbourhood is residential rather than purely touristic, although tourism is clearly present: the wider area includes 24 hotels with around 11,154 beds, which means the busiest season is July and August. Outside those months the pace is quieter. For sport, the Club Municipal de Hielo ice rink is 0.6 km away, the Club de Raqueta 1.0 km and the Polideportivo Arroyo de la Miel 1.1 km. The communal pool and the padel court inside the complex cover swimming and racquet sports without leaving home. Underground parking for up to four cars removes the usual coastal parking pressure.
The immediate surroundings combine residential calm with full coastal infrastructure. Within 2 km there are 192 restaurants, 43 cafes, 28 pharmacies, 22 banks and 8 dental practices, covering nearly all daily needs on foot or by a short drive. Education is well represented, with 13 primary schools and 11 secondary schools in the area, and healthcare is served by two health centres. The neighbourhood sits at 51 metres elevation, close enough to the sea to feel maritime yet raised enough to deliver the sea views that define the property. Distances to points of interest are straight-line figures: Playa de Santa Ana at 0.4 km, the ice rink at 0.6 km, the train station at 1.1 km and the sports centre at 1.1 km. A number of viewpoints nearby, including Mirador Los Canones at 2.6 km and Mirador del Madrono at 4.0 km, offer walking destinations with elevated coastal panoramas. The area's tourism footprint, with 24 hotels and about 11,154 beds, translates into a lively summer season and a noticeably calmer winter, which residents should factor into their expectations of the neighbourhood rhythm.
The map shows the house in Torremuelle, directly opposite the Mediterranean shore. Playa de Santa Ana lies 0.4 km away as the crow flies, with the train station at Benalmadena-Arroyo de la Miel 1.1 km inland. Malaga Airport is approximately 9 km to the northeast, a positioning that shapes much of the area's accessibility for international residents.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Benalmadena Costa occupies a central position on the western Costa del Sol, between Torremolinos and Fuengirola. Malaga, the regional capital with 579,076 inhabitants, lies 17 km away in a straight line, and Marbella 34 km. This places the property within reach of both the cultural offer of a major city and the resort towns further west. The area records around 2,299 housing transactions per year, indicating an active and liquid local market. Torremuelle itself is one of the more residential sections of the Benalmadena coastline, less dominated by hotel blocks than the sections around the marina.
Accessibility is one of the strengths of this location. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport lies approximately 9 km away in a straight line, making arrivals and departures short for international travel; the drive time varies with traffic. The Cercanias railway runs through Benalmadena-Arroyo de la Miel station, 1.1 km from the house, with El Pinillo at 1.9 km and Torremolinos at 3.8 km, providing rail links towards Malaga and Fuengirola. Seven public transport lines serve 50 stops in the area, so a car is convenient rather than essential. By road, Malaga city is 17 km away as the crow flies and Marbella 34 km. For electric vehicle owners, the Fuengirola Supercharger is 6.5 km away, the Malaga Supercharger 7.8 km and a Powerdot charging point 8.4 km. Golfers can reach Golf Benalmadena Pitch & Putt at 3.0 km, Campo de Golf Miguel Angel Jimenez at 5.2 km and Club de Golf Malaga Parador at 8.1 km, all straight-line distances; actual road distances are longer.

The climate data for this stretch of coast shows an average annual temperature of 18.6°C, typical of the Costa del Sol's mild Mediterranean regime. The swimming season, defined by sea water at 20°C or above, lasts around four months, generally from June into early October. The house sits at 51 metres above sea level on a coastal slope with an average gradient of 9.5% towards the beach; this elevation is what produces the panoramic sea views, while also meaning that walks to and from the shore involve a climb on the return. The south-facing orientation maximises sun exposure on the terraces, with the elevated position delivering sun over the sea for most of the day. Winters are mild enough for year-round terrace use during daytime hours, and the nearby viewpoints and coastal paths provide walking options in the cooler months. Local public holidays, 32 per year, regularly bring processions and festivities to Benalmadena's streets, adding seasonal variety to residential life.

Three beaches lie within walking distance: Playa de Santa Ana at 0.4 km and both Playa Malapesquera and Playa de Bil Bil at approximately 0.7 km, measured in a straight line. Playa de Bil Bil, with its distinctive Moorish-style building, and Santa Ana are among the most established beach areas of Benalmadena Costa, offering chiringuitos and water-side facilities through the season. Recreation within the complex centres on the communal swimming pool and the padel court. Beyond the immediate area, the Club Municipal de Hielo ice rink at 0.6 km and the Club de Raqueta at 1.0 km expand the sporting options, while the Polideportivo Arroyo de la Miel at 1.1 km is a full municipal sports centre. Golf is available at three courses within roughly 8 km, from the short-format Pitch & Putt to the 18-hole Campo de Golf Miguel Angel Jimenez and the Malaga Parador course. For walkers, the Mirador Los Canones viewpoint at 2.6 km and Mirador del Lobo at 4.1 km mark the start of hillier terrain towards the Benalmadena interior.

Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this property occupies a specific segment: a recently completed, furnished and licensed beachside house, rather than an off-plan apartment. The comparable new-build projects listed for the region all concern different typologies and locations. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000. Those developments sit further from the shore in most cases and involve smaller units, so their from-prices are not a like-for-like benchmark for a 214 m² semi-detached house with sea views and a rental licence. Locationally, Benalmadena Costa sits in the central band of the coast: 17 km from Malaga and 34 km from Marbella as the crow flies, closer to the airport than either of the two other locations mentioned, with Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport roughly 9 km away. Estepona, by contrast, lies west of Marbella and involves materially longer airport transfers. Torre del Mar is on the eastern Costa del Sol, a quieter and lower-priced market with fewer international flights directly nearby. Mijas offers a broader spread, from inland white-village settings to the coast, with new-build pricing that reflects distance from the sea. The local market around Benalmadena records roughly 2,299 housing transactions per year, which points to steady turnover and reasonable resale liquidity. Median income in the province of Malaga stands at €16,450, a figure that contextualises local purchasing power but has limited bearing on a property in this price bracket, which is priced for international demand. Buyers weighing this house against new-build alternatives should consider that the €850,000 fixed asking price buys an immediately usable, licensed asset with no construction risk or waiting period, whereas from-price developments involve delivery dates that are always indicative and potential specification costs on top of the base price.
