This semi-detached house is situated in Calahonda, in the municipality of Mijas on the Costa del Sol. The property offers 260 m² of living space with five bedrooms and four bathrooms, spread across several levels including a lower level with garage and multifunctional room. It forms part of a gated complex with communal gardens and a swimming pool. The asking price is fixed at €679,000. The house stands in an urban setting with shops, restaurants and the beach within walking distance, and with direct connections towards Marbella and Fuengirola via the A-7 motorway.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property lies in Calahonda, an established residential area of Mijas, roughly 15 km from Marbella and 37 km from Málaga as the crow flies. Playa de Calahonda lies about 1.0 km away in a straight line, with Playa de Mijas at 851 m. A supermarket sits within 600 metres and a pharmacy at 600 metres. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport is 28 km away in a direct line.
The house accommodates a household needing several bedrooms and bathrooms: five potential bedrooms and four bathrooms across four levels. A lower floor provides a garage for two cars and two motorcycles plus a multifunctional room suitable as a gym, office or cinema. A private terrace and garden adjoin the living room, and a communal pool and gardens are shared within the gated complex.
This concerns an existing home completed in 2004, offered key-ready for immediate occupation. No construction phase applies; delivery therefore depends solely on the purchase process. The stated completion year is indicative. Interior elements such as marble flooring, laminate flooring in the bedrooms and central air conditioning date from the original build and subsequent maintenance, which a viewing can assess.
The property is a semi-detached house on a 115 m² plot, so outdoor space is limited to the private terrace and garden rather than a large garden. The pool and gardens are communal, not private. There is no private swimming pool. The plot size restricts expansion possibilities, and the multilevel layout involves stairs between all floors. Parking is private but within a box-style garage structure.

Several recognisable situations match this property. A family relocating to the Costa del Sol for work or schooling needs multiple bedrooms and bathrooms within one dwelling; the five-bedroom, four-bathroom layout across four levels, plus schools in the wider area including the English International College 7.0 km away, fits that profile. A household combining home working with family life can use the lower multifunctional room as an office or gym while keeping the main floors for living and sleeping. Buyers seeking a low-maintenance second home near the coast benefit from the communal gardens and pool, the walkable location and the secure garage. Multi-generational arrangements are also plausible, since the staff bedroom with en-suite bathroom on the lower level functions as an independent sleeping zone. The property is less suitable for buyers wanting a large private plot, a private pool or a single-storey layout: the garden is modest, outdoor swimming is communal, and stairs connect all levels. Households without a car should note that the immediate amenities are walkable, but the hospital sits 9.5 km away and the wider region is easiest to reach by vehicle, with the A-7 providing access along the coast.
The house dates from 2004 and is described as being in good condition, offered ready for occupation. Flooring is marble throughout much of the property, with wood-effect laminate in the bedroom area; the photographic record shows empty rooms with hardwood and marble floors, a living room with garden access, and a bathroom with toilet, bidet and bathtub, consistent with a mid-2000s Spanish build standard. Climate control consists of central air conditioning and central heating, which covers both warm summers and cooler winter months. Security features include a video entry system and location within a gated complex. The layout distributes functions clearly: garage and multifunctional space below, living areas on the main floor, bedrooms above and an attic bedroom with terrace at the top. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes, and the attic dressing room could be converted into a further bathroom, subject to permissions. The property is fully exterior-facing, which supports natural light on all levels. As with any twenty-year-old home, the technical installation, insulation and bathroom finishes merit inspection during a viewing; the present description records the features as documented rather than making claims about their current state.
The asking price is fixed at €679,000 for the property as a whole; this is an existing home, so no price list or unit variation applies. The price covers a key-ready house of approximately 230 m² built on a 115 m² plot, with five potential bedrooms, four bathrooms, a private box garage and use of the communal pool and gardens. Running costs are documented: community fees of €130 per month and IBI (property tax) of €1,152.77 per year. Availability follows directly from the sales process, as no construction or delivery schedule is involved.

Daily life at this address is organised around a compact, fully built-up neighbourhood in which most errands can be done on foot. The supermarket lies within 600 metres, the pharmacy at a similar distance, and the Los Olivos shopping centre sits opposite the complex. Restaurants, cafés and banks cluster in the surrounding streets; within two kilometres there are 38 restaurants, 15 cafés and 9 banks. The beach is roughly a kilometre away in a straight line, a walk of several minutes along the streets of Calahonda, with a moderate gradient of about 5.5% on the route down to the shore. The house itself works as a full-time residence rather than a holiday bolt-hole: the lower level, with its garage for two cars plus two motorcycles, a multifunctional room and a staff bedroom with en-suite bathroom, supports home working, fitness or guest use. The main floor holds the living room, a separate kitchen with utility area and access to the private terrace and garden. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms sit on the first floor, with a further bedroom, a walk-in dressing room and a private terrace at attic level. For households combining permanent residence with regular visitors, this layering allows separate zones within one dwelling. The communal pool and gardens provide outdoor space without private maintenance obligations.
Calahonda is a dense, service-oriented coastal urbanisation between Fuengirola and Marbella. The immediate surroundings supply daily needs within walking distance: a supermarket at 592 m, a pharmacy at 600 m and the Los Olivos shopping centre opposite the complex. Within two kilometres the count includes 38 restaurants, 15 cafés, 7 pharmacies and 9 banks, which indicates a year-round service level rather than a seasonal resort economy. Health care is present at neighbourhood scale (2 health centres in the area), with the nearest hospital 9.5 km away. Education options in the wider area include 15 primary schools, 10 secondary schools and international schools such as the English International College at 7.0 km. Public transport runs on 4 lines with 50 stops in the area, giving an alternative to the car for local trips. The setting is urban: expect neighbours, traffic on nearby roads and activity around the commercial centre, in exchange for the convenience of having amenities at the door. For leisure, La Cala de Mijas lies 3.9 km away and the marina at Puerto Cabopino 2.3 km, the latter offering mooring, restaurants and a quieter beach context.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Calahonda occupies a mid-coast position between Fuengirola and Marbella, roughly 15 km as the crow flies from Marbella and 37 km from Málaga, placing both cities within commuting or excursion range. The area belongs to the municipality of Mijas, one of the larger coastal municipalities on this stretch of the Costa del Sol. Its character is residential and service-oriented: established urbanisation, year-round amenities and a permanent population, in contrast to the more seasonal resorts further east. The regional housing market records around 3,800 transactions per year, reflecting an active turnover in the province.
Beaches lie within a kilometre: Playa de Mijas at 851 m, La Luna-Royale Beach at 881 m and Playa de Calahonda at 906 m, all measured in a straight line, with actual walking distances somewhat longer along local streets. The gradient towards the shore averages 5.5%, described as moderate. Golf is nearby: Cabopino Golf at 1.9 km, El Soto Golf at 3.7 km and a par-3 course at 4.3 km, while La Siesta Golf Club and Club del Sol lie 0.6 km away as sports facilities. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport is 28 km in a direct line, with Gibraltar airport at 68 km as a secondary option. Marbella lies 15 km away and Málaga 37 km, both reachable via the A-7 coastal motorway to which the area has direct access. An electric vehicle charging point stands 568 m from the property. Many daily facilities can be reached on foot or by bicycle, and the local bus network supplements this for trips within the urbanisation.

The location sits at 55 metres above sea level on the lower slopes of the coastal strip, producing the moderate 5.5% gradient towards the beach rather than the steep terrain found further inland in Mijas. The climate data report an average annual temperature of 18.5 °C, a five-month swimming season with sea temperatures of 20 °C or above, and a Mediterranean rainfall pattern concentrated outside summer. In practical terms, this supports outdoor use of the terrace and the communal pool from late spring into autumn, and walking to the beach and shops throughout the year. The position on the coast, rather than high on a hillside, keeps walking and cycling practical. Nearby viewpoints at La Cala de Mijas (3.9 km) mark the transition to the more open coastal landscape west of Calahonda. The natural surroundings are predominantly built-up urbanisation with pockets of green, including the golf courses inland; buyers seeking rugged or rural terrain would need to look towards the Mijas mountains or the La Cala area.

Three beaches lie within roughly a kilometre of the property: Playa de Mijas (851 m), La Luna-Royale Beach (881 m) and Playa de Calahonda (906 m), with Playa de Calahonda - Riviera at 1.3 km as a further option. The wider province records six Blue Flag beaches, including Torrenueva just along the coast, indicating monitored water quality and services on this stretch. The swimming season runs about five months with sea temperatures at or above 20 °C. Golf forms the second recreational pillar: Cabopino Golf (1.9 km), El Soto Golf (3.7 km) and a par-3 course (4.3 km) cover practice and full rounds, while La Siesta Golf Club and Club del Sol at 0.6 km function as local sports centres. The marina at Puerto Cabopino, 2.3 km away, adds waterside dining and boat-related leisure. Within the complex itself, the communal swimming pool and gardens provide daily recreation without leaving the site. Tennis and padel facilities common to the area are clustered around the sports centres listed above.

Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this property differs from the surrounding new-build projects in both format and pricing structure. Comparable developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000) offer newly constructed apartments at substantially lower entry prices, but those figures typically apply to smaller units with one or two bedrooms in early construction phases. This Calahonda house is an existing, completed dwelling from 2004 with a fixed price of €679,000, roughly 260 m² of space, five potential bedrooms and a private double garage, a scale and immediacy that off-plan apartments do not match. Locationally, Torre del Mar and Estepona sit further from the Marbella, Málaga core, whereas Calahonda occupies the central stretch of the coast, 15 km from Marbella and 28 km from the airport. Lantana Residencial shares the Mijas municipality but sits inland, where prices per square metre run lower than in the established beachside urbanisations. The provincial market context, around 3,800 housing transactions per year and a median provincial income of €16,450, indicates steady demand driven largely by international buyers. For households weighing this property against new-build alternatives, the comparison comes down to space and readiness now versus modern specification and phased payment later.
