This recently completed detached villa in La Mairena, Málaga, combines modern design with privacy and sweeping vistas. Situated in an exclusive hilltop area, it offers a serene escape within a secure environment, without compromising on style or comfort. Built on a spacious plot, the villa is designed to maximize natural light, with seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor living spaces. This makes it an attractive option for those seeking a high-quality residence on the Costa del Sol.
La Mairena positions itself as an exclusive and tranquil residential location, distinct from more developed coastal areas like Estepona or Benalmádena. Projects such as Acqua Gardens (€418,800) and Aby Upper (€320,000) in Estepona, and Alba Benalmádena (€699,000), offer apartments and villas closer to the coastline and amenities, but with less emphasis on altitude and panoramic views. The price point of the villa in La Mairena (€1,599,000) reflects the exclusivity of the location, the spacious plot, and the villa's size. Compared to projects on the immediate coastline, which focus on beach accessibility and urban conveniences, La Mairena offers a more rural, natural setting with an emphasis on privacy and views, characteristic of the hilly areas of the Costa del Sol that attract a higher market segment. The area caters to a lifestyle that combines peace and nature with proximity to golf and a select range of high-end amenities, unlike the busier, more commercial zones further along the coast.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

This property suits residents who value peace, privacy, and spectacular views. The architecture, featuring large windows and open spaces, combined with modern amenities like underfloor heating and air conditioning, focuses on comfort and a seamless lifestyle.

This project is a newly built villa that has recently been completed. The construction is finished, making the property ready for immediate occupancy. The design reflects contemporary architecture with an emphasis on light, space, and modern finishes. The construction has been carried out with attention to energy efficiency and comfort, resulting in a move-in ready residence.
Although the villa is ready to move into, the grounds still require landscaping with trees and plants.

Specific insulation values or exact energy labels are not detailed in the available data.

The property is currently immediately available. There is no information available regarding price variations based on different configurations or finishes.

La Mairena, situated on a hilltop at 395 meters above sea level, offers a peaceful residential environment that contrasts with the bustle of the coast. The area is characterized by its rural nature, surrounded by forests and offering impressive panoramas stretching to the Mediterranean Sea, the Sierra Nevada mountains, the Rock of Gibraltar, and the African coast. The tranquil ambiance is punctuated by the sounds of nature and the distant murmur of the sea.
