This property, located in the Sierra Gorda district of Coín, offers 1995 m² of living space set within a 3811 m² plot. Dating back to 1995, the residence features three bedrooms and one bathroom. The plot provides significant space for outdoor use, including a private swimming pool and mountain views. Situated inland at 191 meters above sea level, the property combines country living with proximity to urban amenities.
Compared to coastal developments like Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000) or Waterfall Residences (from €720,000), this property in Coín offers significantly more space for a lower entry price. While coastal projects offer 'turnkey' luxury and proximity to the beach, this property offers a rural lifestyle and privacy. Unlike Arosa in Mijas, which is also mountainous, Coín is further inland and less tourist-oriented, offering a more authentic living experience at the cost of distance to the sea.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Sierra Gorda is a residential area on the outskirts of Coín. It is an urban environment with essential amenities within walking distance. A pharmacy is located 161 meters away, and a supermarket at 485 meters. The inland location means that while the coast is accessible, one relies on transport for beach visits, located approximately 17 kilometers away as the crow flies.
The property is equipped with basic utilities including mains water, electricity, and fiber optic internet for high-speed connectivity. The large plot size (3811 m²) allows for gardening and outdoor activities. Features include a private swimming pool, a fireplace, and a terrace for outdoor dining. The layout consists of a living-dining area with an open-plan kitchen, three bedrooms, and a bathroom.
This is a resale property from 1995, not a new development. The house requires improvements to its facilities and construction. While structurally sound, the internal finishing, particularly the bathroom and kitchen, is dated and in need of modernization to meet contemporary living standards.
The property has only one bathroom, which may be a limitation for families or groups. The interior requires substantial renovation work. Although the coast is roughly 17 km away, the driving distance is longer due to the mountainous terrain, making immediate beach access less practical compared to coastal locations.
This property suits buyers looking for a 'fixer-upper' project. It is ideal for individuals seeking a hobby farm or a home with extensive land for animals or cultivation. Investors may also find value in the large plot. It fits those who prefer the climate of the interior but want to remain within driving distance of the coast. It is less suitable for those seeking a maintenance-free holiday home.
Constructed in 1995, the home shows signs of age. The structural elements are functional, but the decor and fixtures are dated. The bathroom features a shower tray that needs updating. The kitchen is open-plan but requires modernizing. Positive aspects include the installation of fiber optics and a fireplace in the living area. The overall finish is rustic and requires work.
The asking price starts from €289,900. Given the plot size of 3811 m², the price per square meter is competitive compared to coastal areas. However, buyers must factor in the cost of renovations. This makes the property accessible to those looking for space and potential, rather than a move-in ready luxury home.
Living in Sierra Gorda offers a balance between rural tranquility and convenience. You are positioned in a green, hilly area, yet only minutes from the center of Coín for groceries and services. Evenings are quiet, ideal for enjoying the panoramic views from the terrace. The location suits those who appreciate privacy and an outdoor lifestyle but do not require the immediate buzz of the seafront. It provides a sense of community without being isolated.
