A key-ready ground-floor apartment in Las Lagunas, the urban district of Mijas on the Costa del Sol. The property offers one bedroom, one bathroom and 40 m² of built space in a recently completed building, delivered in 2024. It comes fully furnished with a fitted kitchen, air conditioning, double glazing, a storage room and private parking. The complex includes a communal pool. The asking price is fixed at €282,500. Daily amenities such as a supermarket, pharmacy and public transport are within walking distance, and the beaches of Fuengirola lie roughly 1.6 km away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Las Lagunas is the most urban part of Mijas, bordering Fuengirola. A supermarket sits 182 m from the door and a pharmacy 248 m, so groceries and daily errands are done on foot. The nearest beaches, including Playa de Santa Amalia and Playa de Fuengirola, lie about 1.6-1.7 km away in a straight line, while the train station of Fuengirola is 1.2 km distant. Malaga airport is 19 km away as the crow flies.
The apartment suits a low-maintenance lifestyle: 40 m² with one bedroom, a fitted kitchen, fitted wardrobes and full furnishing, meaning the home can be occupied immediately after purchase. Air conditioning and double glazing regulate indoor temperature year-round. Private parking removes the search for a space, and the communal pool is shared with other residents of the complex rather than privately owned.
The building was completed in 2024 and the apartment is key-ready, so no construction phase or waiting period applies. The property is sold as an existing home with a fixed asking price of €282,500. As a recently finished unit, fittings and installations are new, and the developer's delivery milestone has already passed; the completion date cited is indicative.
The property offers one bedroom, one bathroom and 40 m² of living space, which limits capacity to singles or couples. There is no private garden or private pool; outdoor swimming is via the communal pool. No sea views, terrace area or plot are recorded in the data. Ground-floor placement may reduce privacy compared with higher units. No information is available about community fees or annual taxes.
The profile of this apartment matches several recognisable situations. A first-time buyer seeking a foothold on the Costa del Sol without waiting for construction will find a key-ready, fully furnished unit with no additional furnishing budget. A couple using the property as a compact second home benefits from the lock-up-and-leave format: one bedroom, ground-floor access, private parking and communal maintenance. An investor targeting the rental market may note the listing's own investment classification, the walking distance to amenities, the proximity of 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools, and the demand generated by the local year-round population; the area records around 3,800 housing transactions per year. A buyer who does not want to depend on a car daily can manage well here, given the supermarket, pharmacy, public transport and train station within about a kilometre. Conversely, the property suits households of one or two people; a family needing multiple bedrooms or a private garden should look at larger units. Buyers prioritising sea views or a frontline position should note that the beaches lie over 1.6 km away in a straight line, and no view or terrace dimensions are recorded. The flat gradient of 1.8% towards the coast makes walking and cycling realistic, which matters for older buyers or those who prefer not to drive for short trips.
The building was completed in 2024, which places the construction within current Spanish technical standards. The apartment includes double glazing, a measure that improves both acoustic insulation and thermal performance; in an urban district with year-round activity, this affects daily quietness indoors. Air conditioning provides active climate control for the warm months, when average monthly temperatures reach about 26°C. The kitchen is delivered fully fitted, so appliances and cabinetry are in place, and the apartment is sold fully furnished, including the sofa, bedroom furniture and wardrobe visible in the listing photographs. Fitted wardrobes add storage within the compact floor plan, and a separate storage room in the building compensates for the limited interior volume. The bathroom is finished with a modern shower and vanity unit, consistent with recent construction. Flooring and wall finishes follow the developer's standard specification for the building; the listing describes the condition as new construction with an excellent state of maintenance. The communal areas include a pool shared among residents. No specific data is available on the energy performance certificate, heating system beyond air conditioning, or the exact specification of materials such as kitchen appliances and sanitary brands; buyers can verify these details during a viewing. The private parking space is included in the purchase, which is a practical asset given that parking in central Las Lagunas is not always unrestricted.
The asking price is fixed at €282,500 for this completed one-bedroom apartment; it is not a from-price for a range of units. The listing is categorised as reduced and as an investment, which reflects the seller's positioning in the current market. At roughly €7,063 per square metre of built area, the price can be compared with new-build from-prices elsewhere on the western Costa del Sol, such as Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000). What distinguishes this unit is that it is finished, furnished and immediately available, with private parking and a storage room included. Availability details and viewing arrangements can be requested through the contact form.
Daily life here is organised around urban convenience rather than resort-style seclusion. Las Lagunas functions as the working, year-round district of Mijas, with shops, pharmacies and schools within a compact radius. The apartment's position on the ground floor of a recently completed building makes coming and going simple: no lifts or stairs, direct access to the street, and the private parking space close by. The 40 m² layout concentrates function in a single bedroom, a combined living space, a fitted kitchen and a bathroom, which suits a single occupant, a couple, or short-stay use. Mornings can start with a walk to the supermarket 182 m away; the pharmacy sits 248 m from the entrance. For exercise, Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas is only 0.3 km away, and a public swimming pool, Piscina María Peláez, lies 1.1 km from the complex. The communal pool covers swimming needs in the immediate environment. Beach outings require a short drive or a brisk walk of roughly 1.6-1.7 km in a straight line to Playa de Santa Amalia or Playa de Fuengirola; the actual road distance is longer. With 180 restaurants, 55 cafés and 21 banks within a 2 km radius, eating out and errands rarely require planning. Eight public transport lines and fifty stops in the area mean a car is not strictly necessary, although private parking is included. The Fuengirola train station at 1.2 km connects the district to Benalmádena, Torremoligos and Málaga city. The area remains active throughout the year, as it is a residential neighbourhood rather than a seasonal tourist zone; the ten hotels and 2,131 beds in the vicinity concentrate near the coast.
Las Lagunas sits at roughly 30 m above sea level, immediately inland of Fuengirola's beachfront. The gradient towards the sea is about 1.8%, effectively flat, which makes walking and cycling realistic modes of transport. The supermarket at 182 m and the pharmacy at 248 m define the daily errand radius; both are closer than any other recorded amenity. Healthcare is more distant: the nearest hospital lies 9.3 km away in a straight line, while two health centres operate within the district. Education is well represented, with 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools in the surrounding area, indicating a family-oriented residential base. For sport, Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas is 0.3 km away, Complejo Deportivo Municipal Elola 0.8 km and Polideportivo Las Cañadas 1.0 km. An electric-vehicle charging point sits 556 m from the property, and the Fuengirola Supercharger is 5.4 km away. The district has 8 public transport lines and 50 stops, plus the Fuengirola railway station at 1.2 km offering connections along the coast to Málaga. The nearest beaches are Playa de Santa Amalia and Playa de Fuengirola, both around 1.6-1.7 km away as the crow flies; road distances are somewhat longer.
The map shows the apartment's position in Las Lagunas, between the Fuengirola beachfront roughly 1.6 km to the south and the foothills of Mijas to the north. Markers indicate the supermarket, pharmacy, train station and the nearest beaches, all within walking or short driving distance. The flat terrain makes these routes easy on foot or by bicycle.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Las Lagunas occupies the coastal plain between Fuengirola and the hills of Mijas pueblo, placing this apartment within the central section of the Costa del Sol. Málaga city and its airport lie 28 km and 19 km to the east, while Marbella is 22 km to the west, giving balanced access to both directions of the coast. The position is inland of the beachfront by about 1.6 km, which trades sea views for walkable urban services and lower densities of tourist traffic. Within Mijas municipality, Las Lagunas is the year-round residential and commercial counterpart to the whitewashed village that gives the municipality its name.
Distances below are straight-line figures; actual road distances can be longer. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport lies 19 km away, making flights reachable in a short drive; Gibraltar airport is an alternative at 77 km. The beaches of Fuengirola start at about 1.6 km, with Playa de Santa Amalia at 1.7 km and Playa del Castillo at 2.0 km. Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola marina is 1.8 km away for boat trips and waterfront dining. Golfers can reach Campo Los Lagos at 2.6 km, Cerrado del Aguila Golf at 3.1-3.2 km and Mijas Golf at 3.2 km. Regional cities frame the position: Marbella at 22 km and Málaga at 28 km straight-line, both reachable within a half-hour to forty-minute drive depending on traffic. Within the district itself, the train station (1.2 km), 8 bus lines and 50 stops provide public transport coverage, so a car is useful but not essential for daily life. The apartment's private parking space covers trips by car when chosen.

The climate data for the area shows average monthly temperatures ranging from 14°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 18.6°C. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about four months, concentrated in summer and early autumn. The elevation of 30 m above sea level and the 1.8% gradient towards the coast mean the terrain is flat throughout the neighbourhood, without the hills that characterise parts of Mijas pueblo and the inland villages. Winters are mild by Northern European standards, and the air conditioning handles the warmest summer periods. Rainfall concentrates outside the summer half-year, which is typical for the Mediterranean coast of Andalusia. The immediate surroundings are urban rather than natural; green space within the recorded radius consists of one park, though the beachfront promenades of Fuengirola, roughly 1.6-1.8 km away, offer the main outdoor walking environment by the sea.

The beaches nearest to the property are Playa de Fuengirola and Playa de Santa Amalia, both about 1.6-1.7 km away in a straight line, followed by Playa de San Francisco at 1.8 km and Playa del Castillo at 2.0 km. These urban sandy beaches form part of the continuous Fuengirola coastline, accessible on foot, by bicycle or via the short drive with the private parking space at the destination end. Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola, 1.8 km away, provides marina facilities, boat excursions and a concentration of restaurants. Golf is a defining recreation option of the wider area: Campo Los Lagos lies 2.6 km away, Cerrado del Aguila 3.1-3.2 km and Mijas Golf 3.2 km, giving three courses within a five-minute drive. For swimming outside the sea season, the communal pool of the complex and the public Piscina María Peláez at 1.1 km are available. Sports centres cluster nearby: Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas at 0.3 km, Complejo Deportivo Municipal Elola at 0.8 km and Polideportivo Las Cañadas at 1.0 km cover gym, court and municipal sports facilities. The 180 restaurants and 55 cafés within 2 km supply year-round dining options.

Set against comparable offerings on the Costa del Sol, this apartment occupies a specific niche: a completed, furnished and immediately available unit at a fixed price of €282,500. New-build alternatives such as Lantana Residencial in Mijas advertise from-prices of €205,000, Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000 and Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950. Those figures typically refer to entry-level units within a price list, before optional extras such as furniture, kitchen packages, parking or storage. This property bundles those elements into the asking price, which narrows the effective gap with the from-price developments once equipement costs are added. The location also differs. Las Lagunas is an established urban district with schools, health centres and a year-round population, rather than a newly urbanising fringe. For buyers who value walkable services, supermarket at 182 m, pharmacy at 248 m, train station at 1.2 km, this is a more practical setting than peripheral new-build zones that depend on the car for daily errands. The trade-off is scale: at 40 m² with one bedroom, the property is smaller than most new-build alternatives in that price bracket, which typically offer two bedrooms and 60-80 m². Rental and resale dynamics in the district are supported by roughly 3,800 housing transactions per year in the surrounding market and by demand from the local resident population, while proximity to Fuengirola's beaches, marina and the A-7 corridor keeps the property within the core tourist letting area of the coast. Buyers comparing options should weigh turnkey availability and urban convenience against the larger floor plans available at similar from-prices further along the coast.
