This detached villa stands in the residential urbanisation of Cerros del Aguila, between Mijas and Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol. Built in 2008 and key-ready, the property offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms and 407 m² of living space on a 735 m² plot, with approximately 300 m² of terracing. The asking price is fixed at €850,000. The house is sold fully furnished and includes a private pool, a guest apartment, underfloor-level parking for more than one car, and climate control through air conditioning, central heating and a fireplace. Golf courses, beaches and the train connection to Fuengirola and Málaga are all within a short radius of the property.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Cerros del Aguila is a hillside urbanisation in the municipality of Mijas, roughly 3.2 km from the beaches of La Cala and El Chaparral as the crow flies. The setting combines residential quiet with proximity to golf: Cerrado del Aguila Golf lies 1.1 km away and the Mijas Golf courses at 1.7 and 2.3 km. Fuengirola's train station is 3.3 km away, and Málaga airport approximately 21 km in a straight line.
The villa is designed for permanent or seasonal living at scale: five bedrooms, an en-suite bathroom, a separate guest apartment and a solarium accommodate a large family or visiting guests. A private pool, landscaped low-maintenance garden and roughly 300 m² of terraces orientated east, south and west provide outdoor space across the whole day. Storage, utility room and a fitted kitchen-lounge support year-round use.
This is an existing home, completed in 2008 and described as being in good condition. The property is key-ready and sold fully furnished, which shortens the path to occupation compared with off-plan purchases. No construction phase or delivery schedule applies; the usual resale process, including notary transfer and utility name changes, applies instead.
The property is not on the beachfront: the sea is roughly 3.2 km away as the crow flies, and daily life here generally benefits from a car despite public transport stops in the area. There is no mention of sea-front access on foot, no lift, and the house dates from 2008, so finishes reflect that period rather than current new-build standards. No energy performance certificate data has been supplied in this listing.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to the Costa del Sol who need five bedrooms, proximity to schools, the area counts 15 primary and 10 secondary schools, and space for a home office will find the layout and fibre optic connection workable. Buyers seeking a second home that can be locked up for months benefit from the gated complex, 24-hour security and alarm system. Households that regularly host guests can use the separate guest apartment rather than reshuffling bedrooms. Golf-oriented buyers are positioned within roughly 2 km of three courses, with Cerrado del Aguila Golf at 1.1 km. Buyers who want a walk-everywhere beachfront life will find the 3.2 km distance to the sea a compromise: the coast is close by car but not on the doorstep, and the return is a quieter hillside setting with layered views. Investors should note the resale category and the local market context: the wider area records around 2,169 housing transactions per year, indicating an active rather than dormant market. The house also suits buyers who prefer to skip a construction phase: it is completed, furnished and move-in ready, with no waiting for delivery dates. Households dependent on public transport can use the eight bus lines and 50 stops in the area, though a car remains the practical default for shopping, schools and beach trips.
The villa was completed in 2008 and is listed in good condition. The interior specification includes a fully fitted kitchen with an island and integrated appliances, double glazing throughout, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, and an en-suite bathroom with a jacuzzi bath and double sinks. Climate control is covered from several directions: hot and cold air conditioning, central heating for winter months, and a fireplace for the living area, a combination that matters in a hillside position where winter evenings cool down. The property is sold fully furnished, which reduces the initial outlay and effort for buyers who do not want to furnish a 407 m² house themselves. Technical amenities include fibre optic connectivity, an entry phone, electric blinds and an alarm system within a gated complex under 24-hour security. Outdoor construction includes approximately 300 m² of terracing, a solarium, a barbecue area and a private pool, with a landscaped garden described as easy to maintain. Storage is addressed through a dedicated storage room and utility room. Parking is underground, private and sized for more than one vehicle. Utilities, electricity, drinkable water and telephone, are all connected. As with any 2008 build, buyers may wish to have an independent technical inspection assess the condition of installations such as the heating system, pool equipment and waterproofing, which is standard practice for resale purchases of this age.
The villa is offered at a fixed asking price of €850,000. This is a resale property rather than a new-build development with a price list, so there is no range of unit types or from-price. The price reflects the property's size, 407 m² built on a 735 m² plot with roughly 300 m² of terracing, and its position within an established urbanisation close to golf courses and the coast. For context, new-build projects elsewhere on the coast currently start from around €205,000 in Mijas (Lantana Residencial), €269,950 in Torre del Mar (Aquamar) and €321,000 in Estepona (Etherna Homes 2), though those are apartment-style developments of a different scale. Availability is immediate, as the home is key-ready and fully furnished.
Daily life at this villa revolves around a rhythm made possible by its layout and orientation. Morning light reaches the east-facing terraces first, while the south and west orientation extends usable outdoor hours into the evening, a practical matter in a climate where average monthly temperatures range from 14 to 26°C. The kitchen-lounge arrangement connects cooking and living into one space that opens onto the terraces, so indoor and outdoor use flow into each other for most of the year. The guest apartment and the five bedrooms mean the house can absorb visitors without reorganising the main living areas, and the solarium offers a quieter upper retreat with panoramic views over sea, mountains and countryside. Practical errands stay local: ten restaurants, four pharmacies, three banks and two cafés sit within 2 km, and the urbanisation is described as close to shops and schools. For exercise, the padel club at Club de Pádel Cerrado del Águila is under a kilometre away, and the sports facilities of Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas are 2.2 km distant. The gated complex with 24-hour security and an alarm system shapes how the property feels when left empty for weeks, a relevant consideration for second-home use. Underground parking for more than one vehicle keeps cars off the street and out of the sun. rubbish disposal, water and electricity are all connected, and fibre optic is present for remote work or streaming.
Cerros del Aguila sits on the lower slopes above Mijas and Fuengirola at roughly 45 m elevation, with a gradient of about 1.3% toward the coast, effectively flat access compared with many hillside urbanisations in the region. The immediate surroundings are residential and green, with forest nearby and three golf courses within about 2.3 km. Everyday infrastructure is dense for a village setting: within 2 km there are ten restaurants, four pharmacies, three banks and two cafés. Healthcare is covered by three health centres in the area, and education by 15 primary and 10 secondary schools. The nearest beaches, Playa del Castillo, Playa Mati and Playa El Chaparral, all lie about 3.2 km away as the crow flies, so a day at the coast is a five-minute drive rather than a walk. Fuengirola's marina is 3.9 km away and Puerto Cabopino 9.1 km. For orientation further afield, Marbella is 20 km in a straight line and Málaga 30 km, giving access to both city-scale amenities and the historic town of Mijas village itself. Tourism infrastructure in the area, 29 hotels and around 9,381 beds, means services stay open year-round rather than closing after summer.
The map shows the villa's position in the hills above Fuengirola, with the coastline roughly 3.2 km to the south and three golf courses clustered within about 2 km. The train line at Fuengirola station, 3.3 km away, and the A-7 coastal road frame the connections to Málaga airport and Marbella.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Cerros del Aguila occupies a middle position on the Costa del Sol: 20 km from Marbella and 30 km from Málaga as the crow flies, with Fuengirola effectively next door. This places the villa within reach of both the Marbella luxury segment and the cultural and business offer of Málaga, while belonging to Mijas, a municipality known for its mix of whitewashed village centre, golf valleys and residential urbanisations. Compared with beachfront zones, the area trades seafront proximity for views, space and quieter streets, at a lower price point than comparable properties in central Marbella.
By car, the property connects efficiently to the A-7 and AP-7 corridor along the coast. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is approximately 21 km away in a straight line, a drive of roughly thirty minutes depending on traffic; Gibraltar airport is about 75 km to the west. Rail access runs through the Cercanías line: Fuengirola station is 3.3 km away, with Los Boliches at 4.6 km and Torreblanca at 5.8 km, providing a direct train to Málaga city and the airport. Within the urbanisation itself, eight public transport lines and 50 stops give a workable bus network for local trips, though most residents use a car for shopping, schools and beach visits. Charging an electric car requires a trip to the Fuengirola Supercharger at 7.7 km unless a private point is installed at the house. Underground parking for more than one vehicle on the plot removes any concern about street parking. All distances quoted are straight-line; road distances are somewhat longer.

The climate data for this location shows an average annual temperature of 18.6°C, with monthly averages between 14 and 26°C, mild winters and warm but not extreme summers, typical of the western Costa del Sol. The swimming season runs about five months, with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, generally from late May into October. At 45 m above sea level with a gradient of only about 1.3% toward the beach, the setting avoids the steep access roads that characterise many hillside urbanisations inland from Fuengirola. The orientation of the villa, east, south and west, means the terraces receive sun from morning through to evening, and the fireplace and central heating cover the cooler months of December through February, when evenings at this elevation drop noticeably. Forest nearby adds walking options directly from the urbanisation, and the viewpoint at La Cala de Mijas, 3.6 km away, offers a coastal outlook over the bay.

The nearest beaches, Playa del Castillo, Playa Mati and Playa El Chaparral, sit about 3.2 km away as the crow flies, on the stretch of coast between Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas. Two marinas are within reach: Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola at 3.9 km for everyday sailing and waterfront dining, and the smaller Puerto Cabopino at 9.1 km. Golf is the strongest recreational asset here: Cerrado del Aguila Golf lies 1.1 km from the villa, with Mijas Golf's Los Lagos course at 1.7 km and Los Olivos at 2.3 km, three courses within a five-minute drive. For other sports, the padel club at Cerrado del Águila is 0.9 km away, Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas 2.2 km, and Karting Experience 2.6 km. A public swimming pool, Piscina Bellavista, is 2.8 km distant. The private pool and barbecue area on the plot extend the season for outdoor living at home, and the solarium adds a wind-sheltered spot for the shoulder months.

Within the Mijas, Fuengirola corridor, Cerros del Aguila occupies a specific niche: established hillside residential within short reach of golf and the coast, but priced below the beachfront and Marbella segments. A fixed asking price of €850,000 for a 407 m² detached villa on 735 m² of land works out at roughly €2,090 per built square metre, a level that in Marbella proper would typically buy a considerably smaller apartment or townhouse, and that in beachfront Fuengirola would be difficult to find at all for a detached villa of this scale. Against current new-build supply, the comparison shifts: Lantana Residencial in Mijas starts from around €205,000 and Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, but these are apartment developments, a different product from a five-bedroom villa with private pool and guest apartment. Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona, from €321,000, likewise targets the apartment segment. Buyers comparing this villa against new build should weigh two trade-offs. On one side, new-build projects deliver current construction standards, developer warranties and communal facilities; on the other, they typically involve off-plan waiting, smaller floor plans at comparable prices and community living rather than a private plot. This property offers immediate availability, furnished and key-ready, with space that would be difficult to replicate at this price in new-build form on the western Costa del Sol. Location-wise, the area sits between two market poles: Marbella, 20 km away with around 148,000 inhabitants and the coast's premium price levels, and Málaga at 30 km with 579,000 inhabitants, the region's airport and its fastest-growing city market. The local transaction volume, roughly 2,169 housing sales per year in the area, points to a liquid resale market, which matters for buyers weighing eventual exit options. Median provincial income of €16,450 also frames the rental market realistically for buyers considering lettings: demand on this stretch of coast is driven by tourism and international residents rather than local wages alone.
