A detached villa of 355 m² in the La Quinta area of Málaga, completed in 2015 and available key-ready at a fixed asking price of €3,750,000. The property offers three bedrooms and three bathrooms on a 794 m² plot, with a private infinity pool, sauna, and south-east orientation providing sea and mountain views. The surroundings are urban with amenities within walking distance: a supermarket roughly 73 m away, a pharmacy about 211 m and a hospital around 642 m. Malagueta beach lies about 1.3 km away as the crow flies, and Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport approximately 5 km in a straight line.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in an urban environment where most daily amenities are reachable on foot or by bicycle. A supermarket is roughly 73 m away, a pharmacy 211 m and a hospital 642 m. Malagueta beach is about 1.3 km as the crow flies, and the airport lies roughly 5 km in a straight line. Eight public transport lines and fifty stops serve the wider area.
The layout serves three bedrooms and three bathrooms across 355 m², each bedroom with its own sleek bathroom. An open-plan living, dining and kitchen area connects to terraces and landscaped gardens with an infinity-edge pool. A private sauna and parking for at least two cars are included, with air conditioning and WiFi fitted throughout.
This is not a new-build project but an existing home, completed in 2015 and described as being in excellent condition. It is key-ready, meaning a buyer can in principle move in directly after completion of the purchase process. Furniture is optional. Delivery and handover dates for existing properties are always indicative and depend on the transaction.
The property offers three bedrooms on a 794 m² plot; larger households requiring four or more bedrooms will need to look elsewhere. There is no mention of underfloor heating, a gym, or community facilities such as a shared pool, the pool and sauna are private. The villa stands in an urban setting rather than a secluded rural one, and beach access involves a walk or short drive.

This property fits a buyer in several recognisable situations. The first is the household seeking a permanent residence on the Costa del Sol with genuine walkability, daily shopping, pharmacies and medical care within a few hundred metres are rare in the villa segment, where most comparable homes require a car for every errand. The second is the buyer of a high-end second home who values privacy and views but does not want isolation: three en-suite bedrooms allow family and guests to stay comfortably, while the proximity of restaurants, cafés and the beach keeps the calendar flexible. The third is the downsizer from a larger property who wants single-home ownership without the maintenance burden of an extensive estate, 794 m² of plot is manageable, and the 2015 construction means the major installations are of recent vintage. The house is less self-evidently suitable for buyers seeking four or more bedrooms, a rural or fully secluded setting, or a brand-new build with developer warranties; an existing 2015 property is sold as seen, subject to survey. Households that plan extensive home working should note the WiFi provision, while those with electric vehicles will find charging points within about 434 m in the surrounding area. Finally, the fixed asking price of €3,750,000 places this property firmly in the premium segment; buyers comparing against new-build apartment projects elsewhere on the coast are effectively comparing different product types.
The villa dates from 2015 and is described as being in excellent condition, with a finish level consistent with its market segment. The interior photographs show a coherent modern scheme: a living room with piano and direct pool view, a hallway with a modern staircase and console table, and bathrooms with freestanding tubs, walk-in showers and a dedicated sauna. Floor-to-ceiling windows appear throughout the main living spaces, which serves both the sea views and the amount of natural light entering the open-plan floor. Each of the three bedrooms has its own bathroom, finished in the same contemporary style with ensuite facilities as a listed feature. Fitted wardrobes are present in the bedrooms. Climate control is handled by air conditioning; there is no mention of underfloor heating or a heat pump, which buyers used to northern building standards may wish to verify regarding winter comfort, although the regional average annual temperature of 18.8°C moderates that concern. Connectivity is provided through WiFi. Outdoors, the finishing continues with landscaped gardens, an infinity-edge pool, sun terraces and multiple alfresco dining and lounge areas. Secure private parking for at least two cars is included on the plot. Furniture is optional, meaning the sale price can be concluded with or without the contents depending on negotiation. As with any existing home, the technical state of installations, pool equipment, sauna, air conditioning units, damp proofing, should be established through an independent survey before purchase, since no developer warranty applies to a 2015 construction.
The villa is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €3,750,000, not a starting price within a range. For that amount the buyer acquires 355 m² of living space on a 794 m² plot, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private infinity pool, sauna and parking for at least two cars. Completed in 2015, the property is key-ready and described as being in excellent condition; furniture is available optionally and would need separate negotiation. As a point of regional context, new-build apartments on the Costa del Sol in comparable projects such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona start between roughly €205,000 and €269,950, a different segment entirely. This villa competes in the established upper-end villa market, where price per square metre and plot value, not list-entry prices, are the relevant benchmarks.
Daily life around this villa is shaped by an unusual combination: a residential hillside setting with sea views on one hand, and urban convenience on the other. The morning routine can start on a south-east facing terrace, where early sun reaches the pool and garden before the heat of the day. Because the house is oriented south-east, the outdoor spaces are at their best in the first half of the day, while late afternoons shift naturally towards the indoor living areas with their floor-to-ceiling windows. The open-plan ground floor, living room, dining area and kitchen flowing together, suits households that spend much of the day between indoors and outdoors, with multiple alfresco dining and lounge spaces outside. Practically, the location reduces dependence on the car. A supermarket roughly 73 m from the door covers daily shopping on foot, a pharmacy sits about 211 m away, and a hospital is within 642 m. For exercise and leisure, a tennis school lies about 300 m away and two football pitches within 600 m. The beach at Malagueta is about 1.3 km as the crow flies, so an evening swim or walk along the shore is a short trip rather than an excursion. The three en-suite bedrooms mean the house works well for guests and permanent residents alike, each occupant retaining privacy. A sauna inside the house extends the range of year-round use, particularly in the cooler months when sea swimming is less attractive. Parking for at least two cars within the grounds removes the daily search for a space. The area does not shut down outside the summer: with 49 restaurants, 26 cafés and 27 banks within 2 km, the neighbourhood functions twelve months a year.
The surrounding area combines residential calm with a high density of everyday facilities. Within 2 km the neighbourhood counts 49 restaurants, 81 pharmacies, 27 banks, 26 cafés and 9 dentists, figures that indicate a fully functioning urban district rather than a seasonal resort zone. Healthcare is well represented, with 17 health centres in the wider area and a hospital roughly 642 m from the property. Families will find 80 primary schools and 59 secondary schools in the region. The immediate vicinity is oriented towards active living: the Escuela de Tenis Cortijo Alto is about 300 m away and two football pitches lie within 600 m. For walks and viewpoints, Mirador Torre del Atabal is 3.2 km away and the Mirador de la Alcazaba 4.0 km. Public transport consists of 8 lines with 50 stops, and the train stations Barbarela (1.2 km), El Torcal (1.3 km) and Ciudad de la Justicia (1.4 km) connect the area to the regional rail network. Most errands can be done on foot or by bicycle, which distinguishes this location from more isolated villa zones along the coast. The urban character does mean neighbours and traffic are part of daily life, this is not a countryside retreat, and buyers seeking complete seclusion should weigh that.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Within the Costa del Sol the property occupies a position closer to the Málaga metropolitan area than to the Marbella, Estepona belt: Marbella lies about 10 km and the city of Málaga roughly 56 km as the crow flies according to the regional dataset, with Algeciras 58 km beyond. This places the villa in the eastern, more urbanised half of the coast, where proximity to the airport (about 5 km straight-line), the railway stations and the cultural offer of Málaga city compensates for the greater distance to Puerto Banús-style resort life. The regional market records about 3,916 housing transactions per year, indicating an active and liquid market. Buyers choosing this location trade the hillside seclusion of the western Costa del Sol for connectivity and year-round urban infrastructure.
Distances in this section are straight-line, as the crow flies; actual road distances are longer. The nearest beach, Playa de la Misericordia, lies about 2.3 km away, with Playa de San Andrés also 2.3 km and the Playa de la Malagueta roughly 1.3 km according to the location dataset. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 5 km in a straight line, one of the shortest airport distances conceivable for a coastal villa, though buyers should note that flight paths can carry aircraft noise depending on wind direction. Gibraltar Airport is about 101 km away and Alicante-Elche roughly 386 km. For golfers, three courses lie within reach: Club de Golf Málaga Parador at 6.0 km, Club de Golf de Guadalhorce at 6.4 km and Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 8.6 km. Two marinas, Marina Real Club Mediterráneo and IGY Málaga Marina, are each about 4.0 km away. Electric-vehicle charging points are available at 434 m and at several hotels within 2 km. A car remains useful for beach and golf trips, but is not required for daily shopping or medical visits.

The location sits at roughly 21 m above sea level with a gradient to the beach of only 0.7%, meaning the terrain is effectively flat, a notable difference from the hillside villa zones of Marbella and Benahavís where steep access roads are common. The climate is Mediterranean with average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in the coolest month to 27°C in the warmest, and an annual average of 18.8°C. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months, realistically June through October. Winters are mild enough to use the outdoor terraces and garden year-round, particularly given the south-east orientation that captures morning and midday sun. Rainfall is concentrated in the cooler months, leaving long dry stretches from late spring to early autumn. The nearby viewpoints at Torre del Atabal (3.2 km) and the Alcazaba (4.0 km) offer walking destinations with panoramic outlooks over the bay and city, while the villa's own elevated position provides sea and mountain views including the La Concha massif described in the listing.

The coast here offers variety within a small radius. Playa de la Malagueta, about 1.3 km as the crow flies, is the classic city beach of Málaga with its full range of chiringuitos and services; Playa de San Andrés (about 2.3 km) and Playa de la Misericordia (2.3 km) are broader, more local stretches popular for walks and kite sports. Playa Sacaba lies 3.2 km away. For recreation beyond the beach, the Escuela de Tenis Cortijo Alto tennis school is roughly 300 m from the villa, and two football pitches sit within 600 m. Golfers have three courses within 8.6 km, ranging from the Parador course to the Miguel Ángel Jiménez layout. Water-based recreation extends to two marinas at 4.0 km, offering berths, sailing schools and boat trips. The tourism infrastructure, 96 hotels and over 12,800 beds in the area, means restaurants and leisure facilities stay open through the winter, in contrast to seasonal resorts that empty out after summer. For evening recreation, the viewpoints at 3.2 to 4.4 km provide short scenic outings.

Set against the wider Costa del Sol market, this villa occupies a distinct niche. Most detached villas with private pools, sea views and a sauna are concentrated in the western belt, Benahavís, Marbella, Estepona, on elevated plots where a car is indispensable for every errand. This property inverts that model: it delivers the villa typology within an urban Málaga district where supermarkets, pharmacies, hospitals, schools and public transport sit within a few hundred metres. Buyers effectively choose between view-and-seclusion or view-and-connectivity, and this listing belongs clearly to the second category. In price terms there is little direct comparison with the new-build apartment projects elsewhere on the coast. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts at €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas at €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona at €269,000, all entry-level apartment products rather than villas. At €3,750,000 this property competes with established villas in Marbella and Benahavís, where plots and views are often larger but everyday convenience is markedly lower. Two further regional factors stand out. First, the airport distance of roughly 5 km as the crow flies is exceptionally short for a coastal villa, a practical advantage for international owners making frequent trips, balanced against possible aircraft noise depending on approach paths. Second, the flat terrain (0.7% gradient to the beach) and the swimming season of roughly five months make the location comfortable for older buyers for whom hillside access roads in the west can be a burden. The regional market, with about 3,916 housing transactions per year and the full economic weight of Málaga city nearby, provides liquidity that more isolated villa zones cannot match.
