This project features a detached townhouse located in Doña Julia, within the municipality of Casares, Málaga. The property boasts a total living area of 235 m² spread across three floors, comprising three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Situated on the western Costa del Sol, the location offers proximity to the coast while being surrounded by the green environment of multiple golf courses. With a beach distance of approximately 4 km and essential amenities such as supermarkets within a 3 km radius, this location combines residential comfort with recreational accessibility.
Compared to projects in Mijas (Arosa) and Fuengirola (Waterfall Residences), Doña Julia is quieter and less urban. The price point of €356,000 is competitive, given the large living area (235 m²) compared to the often smaller apartments in the northern Costa del Sol. Projects in Fuengirola are closer to the center but generally have less outdoor space and are often 'stuck' in busier infrastructure. Doña Julia offers an accessible alternative to the higher prices of Sotogrande while maintaining the golf lifestyle. The location is further from the airport than Mijas but closer to Gibraltar and the Atlantic coast.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in Doña Julia, a residential area bordering the coastal town of Casares. The location is strategic regarding transport links; Málaga Airport is accessible at a distance of 27 km, and Gibraltar is 28 km away. For daily necessities, a supermarket is located just 1.8 km from the property. The immediate environment is dominated by golf academies and resort-style amenities, lending the neighborhood a quiet, resort-like atmosphere.
With 235 m² of living space, this townhouse provides ample accommodation options. The layout includes a ground floor with a living and dining area, a first floor with three bedrooms, and a basement suitable for a gym, office, or storage. The presence of a private terrace and a private garden offers outdoor space, relevant for residents who prioritize outdoor living areas adjacent to the home. Situated at 35 meters above sea level, the property offers views of the surrounding area.
This property is an existing home with a construction status listed as 'Completed'. Ownership is immediate for the buyer; there are no completion risks or waiting periods for construction phases. The technical condition is described as 'Excellent', indicating a well-maintained structural state. Standard procedures for existing property transfers apply for inspection and conveyance.
It is important to note that the kitchen is currently 'Not Fitted', meaning the new owner must account for the investment required for kitchen installation and appliances. Additionally, furniture is not included in the sale. While the neighborhood has basic amenities, the availability of direct dining options (1 café, 8 restaurants) is more limited compared to larger towns like Estepona or Marbella, which are located a few kilometers further away.
This property suits residents looking for a permanent or secondary residence with sufficient space for a family. The availability of three bedrooms makes it suitable for families or those who frequently host guests. The location in an 'urbanization' with communal services and proximity to golf courses appeals to sports enthusiasts. Individuals valuing privacy and a garden without the maintenance burden of a large 'finca' will find a solution here. The distance to the airport (27 km) also makes it practical for frequent travelers.
The home features marble flooring, a durable and cool material suitable for the Mediterranean climate. Air conditioning and a fireplace are present for climate control. The bathrooms are fitted, but the kitchen requires finishing. The structure includes a basement, which is a plus for extra storage or a hobby room. The general finish is described as 'Excellent', indicating decent build quality. The 'fitted wardrobes' in the bedrooms provide practical storage.
The asking price for this project is set at €356,000. Relative to the surrounding market on the Costa del Sol, this places it in the mid-range for comparable townhouses with three bedrooms and a private pool. A comparable project in Fuengirola (Astra Homes) starts from €364,000, while projects in Mijas (Arosa) are priced higher on average (from €490,000). The price reflects the combination of spacious surface area (235 m²) and the location near golf courses and the coast. Consider additional costs such as transfer tax and notary fees.
The living environment in Doña Julia is primarily characterized by tranquility and open space. The neighborhood is designed as a residential area with mostly low-rise buildings and green zones. For golf enthusiasts, the location is optimal, with Finca Cortesín Golf Club just 1.2 km away and various other courses within 5 km. The proximity to the sea within walking or cycling distance (approx. 4 km) allows for regular trips to the coast, though this generally requires a bike or car due to the 0.9% slope and distance. The presence of an outdoor pool in the garden reinforces the focus on outdoor living.
The immediate surroundings offer daily amenities such as a pharmacy at 2.0 km and a health center within a 2 km radius. The beaches of Casares and Manilva are a short distance away. There are sufficient educational facilities in the region: 7 primary schools and 3 secondary schools. For larger shopping or extensive medical care (hospital at 4.0 km), the focus is on the surrounding larger towns like Estepona, 7.4 km away. The neighborhood itself is quiet, yet due to the short distances to highways and larger cities, one is within 15 minutes in a more vibrant urban environment.
The map shows the location of the townhouse in Doña Julia, south of the A-7 motorway and directly bordering the golf course. Distances to beaches and marinas are measured as the crow flies.
Doña Julia is located on the west side of Málaga, close to the border with the province of Cádiz. It is part of the western section of the Costa del Sol, which is more spacious than the busy east. The location balances the tranquility of golf resorts with the vibrancy of coastal towns like Estepona and Sotogrande. The location relative to Gibraltar (28 km) may be relevant for those living or working there.
Mobility in this region depends on private transport. Although there are 42 public transport stops in the region, a car is essential for practical use. The nearest beach (Playa de Casares) is 2.0 km away and quickly accessible by road. Málaga Airport is 27 km away as the crow flies and easily reachable via the A-7 or AP-7 highways. The marinas of La Duquesa (3.6 km) and Estepona (7.4 km) offer yacht facilities and dining.

The microclimate in this part of the Costa del Sol ensures mild winters and warm summers. With a historical average of 3,845 hours of sunshine per year and an average annual temperature of 18.5°C, it is comfortably habitable year-round. The swimming temperature remains above 20°C for five months of the year. The elevation of 35 meters above sea level provides a light breeze and reduces the likelihood of extreme heat at night. The location at the foot of mountains provides shelter from northern winds.
