This detached villa sits in Calahonda, in the municipality of Mijas on the Costa del Sol, roughly halfway between Fuengirola and Marbella. The property was completed in 2020 (indicative) and offers 416 m² of built space on a 961 m² plot, with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private heated pool and a standalone 56 m² garage. The beach is approximately 850–900 metres away, and everyday amenities including a supermarket, pharmacy and EV charging point are within walking distance. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport lies around 28 km away. The asking price is €1,700,000 and the villa is sold fully furnished.
Within Calahonda itself, the only direct comparable in the dataset is Lantana Villas, starting at €1,700,000, the same entry point as this villa, which suggests the asking price is consistent with the current band for detached new-build-standard product in the area rather than an outlier. The broader comparison set shows how price scales with typology along this coast: Acqua Gardens in Estepona starts at €524,600 and Aby Upper at €320,000, but these are apartment developments, not detached villas, so the price gap reflects the premium for land, privacy and built volume rather than location quality alone. Geographically, Calahonda sits between Fuengirola and Marbella and prices accordingly, below Marbella's prime districts, broadly level with central Mijas Costa, and above inland Estepona product. What this villa adds to the local comparison is its completed status: against off-plan developments, a 2020-completed property with documented rental income above €100,000 per year for four consecutive years provides an operating history that off-plan product cannot. The trade-off is typical for the segment: an urbanised setting with dense surroundings and no sea view, in exchange for walkable amenities, three beaches within a kilometre, and transport links, the airport at 28 km and two sizeable towns within 20 minutes. Buyers comparing against hillside villas in La Cala or Elviras should weigh the view and seclusion those locations offer against the walkability and rental provenance documented here. The local market shows substantial activity, 3,800 recorded property transactions in the surrounding data area, indicating liquidity in this segment of the Mijas coast.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa stands in an established urbanisation in central Calahonda, at approximately 55 metres above sea level. The slope towards the beach is moderate at around 5.5%. Playa de Mijas, La Luna-Royale Beach and Playa de Calahonda are all within roughly 900 metres straight-line distance. A supermarket sits 592 metres away, with a pharmacy at 615 metres and an EV charging point at 568 metres.
The property functions as a full-year residence: air conditioning and central heating in all rooms, shutters on both floors, solar panels, and a heated pool suitable for use outside the summer months. Four bedrooms on the upper floor, a fully fitted open-plan kitchen, fitted wardrobes, private garden and covered terraces cover the practical requirements of a permanent household or an extended-stay second home.
Construction was completed in 2020 (indicative), placing the villa in the recent-build segment with no off-plan uncertainty. The condition is recorded as good. The sale is turn-key: the property is sold fully furnished and includes an integrated security system, a built-in safe, and the standalone garage. No further construction phases apply to this plot.
The property has no sea view; recorded views are of the pool and garden. The plot is 961 m² in a dense urbanisation, so surrounding neighbours are close. There is no mention of guest accommodation, a separate staff area, or communal facilities such as a gym. The urban setting means traffic and tourist activity in the high season form part of the immediate surroundings.
This property fits a buyer seeking a completed, furnished villa that can be occupied immediately without renovation or furnishing work, the 2020 build date and turn-key sale remove the lead time associated with off-plan purchases. It suits households that want walkable access to shops and the beach rather than an isolated hillside plot, and who accept the density of an established urbanisation in exchange for that convenience. The heated pool, central heating and full air conditioning make year-round residence realistic, relevant for buyers relocating permanently rather than only summer use. The documented rental history addresses investors: with over €100,000 of annual income recorded across four years, the villa has functioned as a functioning short-term rental asset, so a buyer continuing that model inherits an operating track record. It is less suited to buyers requiring sea views, large secluded grounds, or a quiet rural setting. Families should note the concentration of schools in the wider area, 15 primary and 10 secondary schools, and the English International College 7 km away. Buyers with an electric vehicle can charge 568 metres from the property, and the garage supports multi-car households.
The villa was completed in 2020 (indicative) and is recorded in good condition. The interior specification is documented in the feature list: a fully fitted open-plan kitchen, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, air conditioning in all rooms, central heating, and shutters on both the ground and upper floors. The climate package, combined air conditioning and central heating, plus exterior shutters for solar control, covers the full temperature range of the region, where the average annual temperature is 18.5°C but summer peaks make mechanical cooling a practical necessity. Solar panels contribute to energy efficiency and reduce running costs for a property of this size, particularly relevant given the heated pool. Security provisions include an integrated alarm system and a built-in safe. The exterior specification consists of a private heated pool, private garden, covered terrace and private terraces arranged to allow sun and shade use through the day. The standalone 56 m² garage is a substantial addition, sized for multiple vehicles plus storage or hobby use. The property is sold fully furnished, which transfers the interior as seen; buyers should verify the inventory list and the condition of individual items during due diligence. No specific certification data (energy label, construction certificates) is included in the available material and should be requested from the vendor.
The asking price is €1,700,000, which for a completed, furnished four-bedroom detached villa of 416 m² on a 961 m² plot in Calahonda corresponds to roughly €4,100 per m² of built area. The comparable listing Lantana Villas in the same area starts at the same price level, suggesting the price sits within the current local band for detached villas rather than at the extremes of the Calahonda market. Newer apartment product in Estepona (Acqua Gardens from €524,600; Aby Upper from €320,000) is priced considerably lower but is not directly comparable in typology. The proven rental history of over €100,000 per year across the past four years provides documented income data, though past performance does not guarantee future results.
Daily life at this villa revolves around a walkable urbanisation. The supermarket lies under 600 metres away, the pharmacy slightly further, and within a two-kilometre radius the area counts 38 restaurants, 15 cafés, 9 banks and 7 pharmacies, enough to run errands on foot or by bicycle. The beach sits roughly a kilometre away on a moderate 5.5% slope, making the walk back a noticeable but manageable climb. The villa's layout supports a settled rhythm: bedrooms upstairs, living space and the open-plan kitchen on the ground floor, and terraces around the heated pool that allow shifting between sun and shade through the day. The property has recorded rental income above €100,000 per year for the past four years, which means the house has operated as a high-turnover holiday let; future owners should expect that the surrounding urbanisation experiences the associated seasonal flows of visitors. Outside the summer months Calahonda quiets down considerably, and the presence of permanent residents, two health centres and 15 primary schools within reach indicates a year-round community rather than a purely seasonal one. Public transport is available through four bus lines and roughly 50 stops, though a car remains practical for hospital visits (9.5 km), golf, and Marbella or Fuengirola. The standalone 56 m² garage accommodates multiple vehicles or storage.
Calahonda is one of the larger residential urbanisations on the Mijas coast, and the villa's position places it in its central, most walkable section. The immediate radius contains the essentials of daily life: supermarket at 592 metres, pharmacy at 615 metres, EV charging at 568 metres, and a church nearby. The density of hospitality, 38 restaurants and 15 cafés within two kilometres, means dining options within walking distance, while the tourism footprint (10 hotels, 2,131 beds) signals that the area receives significant seasonal visitors. Healthcare runs in layers: two health centres serve the locality, while the nearest hospital is 9.5 km away, a distance that requires a car. Education is well represented, with 15 primary and 10 secondary schools in the area and the English International College at 7 km. Sports facilities cluster nearby: La Sierta Golf Club and Club del Sol at 0.6 km, Cabopino Golf at 1.9–2.1 km, and El Soto Golf at 3.6–3.7 km. Puerto Cabopino marina is 2.3 km away. Four bus lines with roughly 50 stops provide public transport along the coast, though service frequency should be checked for commuting purposes. The 5.5% slope to the beach is noticeable on foot.
The map shows the villa's position in central Calahonda, between the N-340 coast road and the beach. The supermarket, pharmacy and EV charging point cluster within 600 metres, three beaches sit roughly one kilometre south, and Cabopino Golf and marina lie a short distance east. Málaga airport appears 28 km north-east.

Calahonda occupies the central stretch of the Mijas coastline, positioned between Fuengirola to the east and Marbella to the west, roughly 15–20 minutes by car to each. This placement gives residents access to two full-scale town centres without living in either, which shapes the area's character: residential and service-oriented rather than a destination in itself. Within Mijas, the villa competes with coastal product in La Cala (3.9 km) and Riviera del Sol, while Marbella's higher-priced market begins some 15 minutes west. The location's defining trait is this midpoint position on the A-7/N-340 coastal axis, with the airport reachable in around half an hour.
Distances from the property: the nearest beach, Playa de Calahonda, is about 1.0 km by road, with Playa de Mijas and La Luna-Royale Beach at roughly 850–880 metres straight-line. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is 28 km straight-line, typically 30–40 minutes by car depending on traffic; Gibraltar airport is 68 km away as an alternative. Marbella and Fuengirola lie in opposite directions, each reachable in roughly 15–20 minutes. Golf is close: Cabopino Golf at 1.9 km, El Soto Golf at 3.7 km and a par-3 course at 4.3 km, with La Cala de Mijas and its viewpoints 3.9 km west. Puerto Cabopino marina, 2.3 km away, is the nearest port facility. The supermarket (592 m), pharmacy (615 m) and charging point (568 m) are all walkable, and the hospital at 9.5 km is the furthest essential service.

The location records 3,889 sunshine hours per year (historical), one of the higher figures for the Iberian peninsula, and an average annual temperature of 18.5°C. The swimming season, periods with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, runs approximately five months, from late spring into autumn; the villa's heated pool extends usable swimming beyond that window. The property sits at 55 metres above sea level on a slope of roughly 5.5% towards the coast, enough elevation for airflow and drainage but modest enough that the beach remains walkable. The surrounding landscape is urbanised Mediterranean coast rather than protected nature; the nearest notable natural viewpoint is La Cala de Mijas at 3.9 km. The orientation spans north, east, south and west aspects across the plot, which the terracing exploits: east-facing areas receive morning sun, west-facing areas the evening, and shade is available at midday.

Three beaches lie within roughly one kilometre of the villa: Playa de Mijas, La Luna-Royale Beach and Playa de Calahonda. Blue Flag beaches in the wider province include Del Cañon-La Pelá, La Guardia, Playa Granada, Salobreña and Torrenueva, six in total, though these lie at varying distances along the coast and the immediate local beaches are not listed among them. Golf is a defining recreational feature of the area: Cabopino Golf (1.9 km), El Soto Golf (3.7 km) and a par-3 course (4.3 km) provide three options within a short drive, with La Siesta Golf Club and the Club del Sol sports centre at 0.6 km. Puerto Cabopino marina (2.3 km) offers mooring, waterfront dining and a sheltered beach setting. The area counts 38 restaurants and 15 cafés within two kilometres, covering everyday dining without driving.
