Higuerón West presents a ground-floor apartment in Fuengirola, characterised by its generous 164m² living space and private garden. Completed in 2024, this property features floor-to-ceiling glass elements that maximise natural light. The southwest orientation and seamless indoor-outdoor flow distinguish this apartment within the established residential context of Fuengirola. With two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and access to communal facilities, the property represents a substantial residential option in a coastal urban setting.
When compared to similar properties in the Fuengirola area, this Higuerón West apartment commands a premium price point of €595,000 compared to Torreblanca Heights (from €425,000), Distinctive Infinity (from €499,000), and Evoque (from €449,000). The premium is justified by several distinguishing factors: the generous 164m² living space significantly exceeds the typical apartment size in the area; the inclusion of two underground parking spaces and private garden represents additional value not commonly found in comparable properties; and the association with Curio by Hilton facilities provides access to premium amenities beyond standard residential developments. Unlike properties further inland, this apartment benefits from genuine walking distance to beaches and urban amenities, eliminating the need for routine car usage. When contrasted with properties in nearby Mijas or Benalmádena, this offering provides a more integrated urban living experience rather than a purely holiday-focused environment, making it suitable for year-round occupation. The completion date of 2024 also means the property benefits from recent construction standards and contemporary design elements that older developments in the region may lack.

The quality of the communal areas and facilities associated with the Curio by Hilton brand indicates a consistent approach to materials and finishes throughout the development. The property's completion in 2024 means that all construction elements benefit from current building technologies and materials that comply with the latest European and Spanish building standards.
Priced from €595,000, this property represents the higher segment within Fuengirola's apartment market.
