Its position offers a moderate 2.9% slope towards the sea, creating gentle elevation for potential views. The surrounding area combines residential development with natural landscape elements, positioned between the urban centres of Mijas and the coastal amenities of Fuengirola.
The 2,000 m² plot size provides substantial space for constructing a custom residence of up to 400 m². The south-facing orientation allows for natural light throughout the day. The urban setting with nearby amenities supports daily living requirements, while the elevated position can accommodate private garden design and potential for outdoor living spaces that take advantage of the favourable climate.

This plot would suit individuals or families planning a custom-built residence in a well-established area of the Costa del Sol. It would appeal particularly to those who value both accessibility to amenities and the opportunity to design a home suited to their specific requirements. The location would be appropriate for those seeking a permanent residence in southern Spain, as well as those desiring a substantial second home with potential for extended stays. The proximity to international schools within the municipality would make it suitable for families with children, while the ease of access to the airport (14km) benefits those who travel frequently. The plot would particularly interest buyers who prefer to oversee the complete construction process rather than purchasing an existing property, allowing them to implement specific design elements and building quality standards according to their preferences.
As the plot is currently undeveloped, any construction quality would be determined by the builder selected and materials chosen by the future owner. The plot benefits from south-facing orientation, allowing for optimal natural light planning in architectural design. The location provides opportunities for high-quality construction techniques suitable to the Mediterranean climate, including proper thermal insulation, ventilation systems designed for warm weather, and outdoor living spaces that maximise the favourable position. The urban setting ensures connections to municipal utilities including electricity and drinking water, providing the infrastructure necessary for modern construction standards. Any development would need to comply with Spanish building regulations including the Technical Building Code, with potential to achieve favourable energy efficiency ratings through appropriate material selection and design.
The plot is priced at €550,000, representing the land value without any constructed improvements. This positioning places it in the mid-to-high range for Mijas residential plots, particularly considering the 2,000 m² size and favourable south-facing orientation. When compared to surrounding developments such as Jardines de las Lagunas II (starting from €411,600) and Altos del Chaparral (from €451,000), this plot commands a premium reflecting its larger size and established urban classification. The pricing represents the investment required before any construction costs are factored in.
Living in this location would offer a balanced Mediterranean lifestyle with convenient access to both urban amenities and coastal recreation. Morning routines might include enjoying coffee on a potential terrace with sea views, followed by a short walk to local shops or supermarkets within 300m. The proximity to beaches (under 4km) allows for regular seaside activities, while the nearby golf courses provide alternative leisure options. The area's 2.9% gentle slope towards the sea creates pleasant walking routes suitable for daily exercise. The urban setting ensures practical necessities are readily accessible, yet the elevated position maintains a sense of removal from the busiest tourist areas, creating a living environment that combines convenience with residential tranquillity.

The infrastructure supports both convenience and variety in daily life.

Compared to surrounding developments in Mijas, this plot offers a larger land area than typical new-build options. Whilst developments like Jardines de las Lagunas II (from €411,600), Navigolf Suites 2 (from €425,000), and Altos del Chaparral (from €451,000) offer completed properties, they generally provide smaller plots or shared community spaces. This plot's €550,000 price point positions it above these alternatives but reflects its premium size and the flexibility of custom construction. The location in La Alquería provides a different character to properties closer to Mijas Pueblo, offering a balance between the traditional village atmosphere and the more urban coastal environment of Fuengirola. Unlike developments concentrated in golf complexes, this plot allows for independence from community fees and regulations, though it requires complete construction investment. The plot represents a middle ground between the exclusivity of frontline beach properties and the density of urban apartment complexes, offering substantial space in an established residential area without the premium of absolute frontline positioning.
