With 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, the property addresses the need for expansive living space in an urbanized setting.

The property is southwest-facing, ensuring natural light throughout the majority of the day. The distance to Málaga Airport is approximately 28 kilometers.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The estate is located in the Calahonda district, part of the municipality of Mijas. It is a suburban environment with an established residential structure. The terrain is relatively flat at an elevation of 41 meters above sea level. The area is characterized by a mix of full-time residents and seasonal visitors, influenced by the proximity to the coastline and various golf courses.
This project facilitates a lifestyle suitable for large families or multi-generational living under one roof. The presence of a guest house allows for separate accommodation within the same grounds. Finishes including air conditioning, oil-fired central heating, and multiple fireplaces support year-round occupancy regardless of the season.
This is an existing residence in excellent condition. Construction is complete and the home is immediately available for occupancy. There are no phased timelines associated with new developments; transfer is expedited upon transaction. Technical installations, including solar panels and security systems, are operational.
Maintenance and garden management will require dependency on external services given the plot size of nearly 4,000 m². The suburban location implies exposure to ambient noise and traffic movements in the vicinity. While the garden provides privacy, the property is not isolated from the surrounding neighborhood infrastructure.
This property suits residents requiring significant living space who prefer a substantial garden over an apartment or townhouse. The location is viable for those valuing mobility but not wishing to rely on a vehicle for every errand. The proximity to golf courses like Cabopino Golf makes it relevant for golfers, while the distance to international schools (over 6 km) presents an option for families with children. The privacy of the plot offers seclusion, while the surroundings remain lively enough to prevent isolation.
The residence features various high-end finishes. Windows are executed in Iroko wood, a durable hardwood resistant to the climate. Temperature regulation is managed via air conditioning and oil central heating, a rarity in the region and crucial for winter months. The villa includes three fireplaces, enhancing atmosphere and warmth in living areas. Technically, the property is equipped with an infrared security system and solar panels, indicating modern integration of sustainability and safety.
The asking price is set at €2,950,000. This is a fixed rate for the entire estate and villa. There are no variations in unit type or size as seen in new builds; the price reflects the current market position of this specific asset. Comparable properties in the region vary significantly based on proximity to the sea and plot dimensions.
Living in Calahonda means residing in one of the more densely populated zones of the Costa del Sol, where facilities are always within reach. The living environment is designed for accessibility; supermarkets, dining, and medical facilities are within biking distance. The villa itself functions as a private entity where the expansive garden and pool dominate the outdoor space. The southwest orientation makes the terraces and garden usable for extended periods, centralizing outdoor living. The inclusion of an in-house cinema room and wine cellar points to a focus on home entertainment within the estate walls.
The immediate surroundings offer a density of amenities rare for suburban areas. Within a 2-kilometer radius, over 40 restaurants and multiple banks are established, indicating an active hospitality sector. The proximity to the beach (less than 1 km) allows for daily walks to the sea. Cultural life is present through nearby clubhouses and sports centers. Access to the A-7 highway nearby ensures quick connections to Marbella or Málaga city.
This map displays the location of the villa in relation to the coastline and surrounding golf courses. The plot is marked with the real estate designation. Blue markers indicate beaches less than 1 kilometer away. Distances to the airport and major access roads are shown to illustrate accessibility.
Calahonda is situated between Marbella and Fuengirola, acting as a central hub in Mijas Costa. Its position is strategic for those seeking access to the amenities of larger cities without living in the dense center. The region is car-oriented, though local amenities are pedestrian-friendly. The project is located in an 'Urbanisation' environment, meaning it is part of a larger whole of permanent habitation.
The beaches of Calahonda and Mijas are within walking distance, with the nearest beach (La Luna-Royale Beach) approximately 900 meters away as the crow flies. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is accessible at about 28 kilometers, resulting in a drive time of 25 to 30 minutes. For daily groceries, a supermarket is located 592 meters away. Medical care requires a trip to a hospital 9.5 km away. There are three golf courses within a 5 km radius, with Cabopino Golf being the closest.

Compared to developments like Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) and Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720,000), this villa occupies a higher price bracket due to plot size and its unique nature as a detached residence. While comparable developments often offer apartments or townhouses in communal complexes, this project offers privacy and own land. The price of €2,950,000 is representative of a luxury product with private amenities, contrasting with the accessible segment in Fuengirola. Value is defined by the combination of space, proximity to the sea, and luxury features like a guest house.
