Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Situated in La Mairena, on a ridge of the Costa del Sol, this project enjoys a privileged position at 395 meters above sea level. It offers a serene, rural environment that is surprisingly close to the coast and urban centers. The location blends the peace of the countryside with the accessibility of the coastal region.
This Finca - Cortijo project is designed for residents who prioritize space, privacy, and a connection with nature. The expansive plot and generous living area offer scope for a luxurious and personalized interior, ideal for those seeking a home that perfectly matches their specific needs.
This project is a new development offered partly off-plan. Buyers have the option to purchase the plot with a building license to realize their vision or opt for the fully completed villa. The completion date is indicative and depends on the chosen purchase option.
This project is located in a rural, hilly area, meaning a car is essential for daily commutes and access to amenities. The steep gradient to the beach (8.0%) suggests this property may not be ideal for individuals with mobility issues who frequently wish to visit the beach.

La Mairena, nestled in the foothills of the Sierra de las Nieves, is a residential enclave renowned for its breathtaking views and tranquil, rural character. At approximately 400 meters above sea level, residents experience a mild climate with abundant sunshine, while simultaneously enjoying vistas stretching across the Mediterranean Sea, mountains, and Gibraltar. The area offers a serene lifestyle, far from the hustle and bustle, yet within easy reach of coastal amenities. The spacious plots and natural surroundings promote a sense of privacy and exclusivity. It is a place where the Mediterranean lifestyle merges with the tranquility of the mountain landscape, perfect for those seeking a sophisticated yet relaxed living environment.
Life in La Mairena is characterized by a blend of tranquility, nature, and exclusivity, just a stone's throw from the vibrant coastline of Marbella. A supermarket is located 3.9 km away, catering to daily needs. For medical care, the hospital is accessible at 6.8 km. The proximity to several golf courses, such as El Soto Golf (1.5 km) and Santa María Golf & Country Club (2.6 km), makes the location attractive for golf enthusiasts. The area offers a high degree of privacy due to its spacious plots and natural setting.
This project is located in La Mairena, an exclusive hilltop residential area north of the Marbella coastline. The map illustrates its elevated position, offering sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding landscape. The proximity to golf courses and the relative distance to the beaches are visually represented here.
La Mairena is strategically positioned in the hills north of Elviria, a coastal area east of Marbella. This location places the project within the prestigious Costa del Sol region, known for its luxury amenities and Mediterranean lifestyle. It offers a tranquil alternative to the immediate coastal areas while remaining within a short driving distance of Marbella and other coastal towns. Its placement in the province of Málaga ensures access to an extensive network of infrastructure and services.
Accessibility to this project is primarily dependent on private transportation, as a car is necessary for daily commutes. Málaga Airport is approximately 28 km away (as the crow flies), ensuring good international connectivity. Beaches like Playa de Artola (4.7 km) and Playa de Cabopino (5.2 km) are relatively close, although the steep gradient to the coast (8.0%) is a consideration. There are 2 public transport lines with 34 stops in the vicinity, but these are likely less practical for efficient daily travel given the rural location.

La Mairena is situated at an altitude of approximately 395 meters, which contributes to a milder climate than the direct coastline. With an average of 3,840 sunshine hours per year and an average annual temperature of 17.4°C, the region benefits from a Mediterranean climate. The swimming season, defined by water temperatures of 20°C or higher, lasts for about four months. The elevated location offers a different climate perspective, potentially with cooler summers and slightly crisper winters than at sea level.

Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens (€418,800), Aby Upper (€320,000), and Alba Benalmádena (€699,000) in the Estepona and Benalmádena regions, this Finca - Cortijo project positions itself in a significantly higher price bracket. These comparable projects typically offer apartments or smaller villas closer to the coast and on smaller plots. This project distinguishes itself through its substantial private plot of 50,000 m², its exceptional elevated location with panoramic views, and the scale of the residence (1,000 m² of living space). While the mentioned comparable projects cater to more accessible market segments with considerably lower price points, this Finca - Cortijo offers a rare combination of rural exclusivity, privacy, and space in a prime Costa del Sol location. It primarily targets buyers prepared for a significant investment in a unique estate with potential for further personalization.
