This semi-detached house in La Mairena, Málaga, offers a spacious living area of 410 m² on a 421 m² plot. Situated in a tranquil, rural hillside setting, the property combines country serenity with proximity to coastal amenities. Featuring five bedrooms and five bathrooms, the residence is designed for comfort and ample space. Its elevated position at 395 meters above sea level ensures panoramic views stretching towards the Mediterranean Sea and the mountains, contributing to an exclusive living experience.
Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens (€418,800) and Aby Upper (€320,000) in Estepona, or Alba Benalmadena (€699,000), this project is positioned in a higher price bracket. The starting price of €1,195,000 for this semi-detached house in La Mairena is significantly higher, which can be attributed to its exclusive hillside location, the size of the property (410 m² living area on a 421 m² plot), and the high-quality finishes with luxury amenities such as a lift, home cinema, and wine cellar. The other projects typically offer a lower price per square meter and may be located closer to the coast or feature different types of properties, such as apartments. However, La Mairena provides a quieter, more rural setting with panoramic views, attracting a different buyer profile than direct coastal locations. Its proximity to golf courses and serene atmosphere are differentiating factors that justify the pricing for a specific target audience valuing peace and views over immediate beach access.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is located in La Mairena, a residential resort nestled in the hills of the Costa del Sol, approximately 5 km from Elviria. This position offers excellent views towards the coastline and the African coast, while its proximity to golf courses and natural areas enhances its appeal for outdoor enthusiasts.
With five bedrooms and five bathrooms, this home is exceptionally well-suited for larger families or for those who frequently host guests. The generous living space and the availability of various facilities such as a home cinema, wine cellar, and games room cater to diverse living and relaxation needs.
This development comprises a select collection of only eight villas, ensuring an exclusive and intimate living environment. Construction focuses on maximizing views and living comfort, incorporating modern finishes and amenities. The completion date is indicative and will be specified upon request.
The hillside location, at 395 meters above sea level, necessitates a car for daily commutes. While public transport is available, its frequency and coverage are limited in this rural area. The steep slope towards the beach also presents mobility considerations.
This property is ideal for those seeking a spacious family home equipped for entertainment and relaxation, featuring a home cinema, wine cellar, and games room. It is well-suited for golfers, with multiple courses within a 1.5 to 2.7 km radius. Families with children will appreciate the proximity to international schools, such as the English International College, located 5 km away. It also offers a fitting choice for individuals who prefer a quiet residential environment while maintaining convenient access to coastal amenities. The panoramic views and elevated position make it appealing to nature and tranquility lovers, without being too distant from the facilities of Elviria and Marbella.
The villas are distinguished by a high standard of finishes, evident in features such as marble staircases and a kitchen equipped with top-quality appliances and granite countertops. Climate control is managed through air conditioning and partial underfloor heating, ensuring year-round comfort. The inclusion of a lift within the property enhances usability. The focus on luxury details, such as the potential for a rooftop jacuzzi and the sleek, modern design, indicates a construction quality geared towards an exclusive living experience.
The semi-detached house in La Mairena is priced starting from €1,195,000. This market segment targets buyers seeking spacious, luxurious homes with comprehensive facilities and an exclusive location. Given the limited availability of only eight villas, the supply is restricted, emphasizing the project's exclusivity. The pricing reflects the property's size, plot, high-quality finishes, and the panoramic views characteristic of this Costa del Sol area.
La Mairena presents itself as a serene residential community, situated approximately 400 meters above sea level. This creates a living environment distinct from the busier coastal areas, emphasizing space, tranquility, and expansive views. The surroundings are characterized by a rural ambiance, bordered by forests and golf courses, fostering a peaceful lifestyle. The proximity to Elviria, about 5 km away, provides access to a broader range of amenities, including restaurants, shops, and beaches, establishing a balance between seclusion and accessibility. Daily necessities are available within 3.9 km, and a hospital is located 6.8 km away, underscoring the location's practical viability. The region attracts a diverse international population with its pleasant climate and lifestyle.
Life in La Mairena offers a blend of tranquility and proximity to urban conveniences. Situated at an altitude of approximately 400 meters above sea level, residents enjoy a serene environment, while the coastal town of Elviria, with its beaches, restaurants, and shops, is just a 5 km drive away. Access to Marbella's old town within 18 km and Malaga within a 40-minute drive provides opportunities for city excursions and access to a broader cultural scene. The presence of international schools and healthcare facilities within reasonable distance makes it a practical location for both families and expatriates.
