Located in an urban environment with amenities within walking distance, it provides convenient access to daily necessities. The plot's elevation of 117m above sea level ensures expansive panoramic views while maintaining practical connectivity to surrounding areas and transport links.

Layout

This villa accommodates practical living needs with its well-distributed 339m² of floor space across multiple levels. The ground-floor bedroom with en-suite bathroom eliminates the need to navigate stairs daily, while the separation of bedrooms on different levels provides privacy. The open-plan kitchen and living area facilitate social interaction, with direct terrace access enhancing indoor-outdoor living possibilities appropriate for the Mediterranean climate.

Project Status

The property was completed in 2020, indicating relatively recent construction with contemporary building standards.

This recent completion suggests the property incorporates current building technologies and design principles without requiring immediate further investment.

Points of Attention

The property does not offer communal facilities such as shared pools or gardens, as it is an independent detached villa. With only three bedrooms, it may not accommodate larger families seeking more extensive sleeping arrangements. The corner plot position, while providing privacy, may entail slightly more maintenance for the exterior boundaries compared to properties with adjoining neighbors on multiple sides.

Lifestyle & Surroundings

This property suits buyers seeking a permanent residence with vacation potential in southern Spain. The design accommodates those who prioritize views and privacy while maintaining access to urban conveniences. The ground-floor bedroom makes it suitable for those with mobility considerations or who prefer single-level living for part of the time. The proximity to both Mijas Pueblo (5 minutes by car) and Fuengirola offers cultural variety, appealing to those who enjoy both traditional Spanish village life and coastal town amenities. The property's recent completion and modern renovations match buyers looking for a move-in-ready home without immediate additional investment requirements. The orientation and multiple terraces will particularly appeal to those who enjoy outdoor living and entertaining, while the private pool and garden provide family-friendly recreation options.

Build Quality & Finishing

The villa demonstrates high-quality construction and finishing throughout, evident in the recent renovation completed to modern standards. The underfloor heating system on the upper level represents an efficient and comfortable heating solution appropriate for the winter months in this region. The property features large windows and glass terraces specifically designed to maximize the panoramic views, using quality materials that withstand the Mediterranean climate. The kitchen comes fully fitted with modern appliances and large work surfaces, designed for both functionality and social interaction. Bathrooms have been updated with contemporary fixtures including walk-in showers, reflecting current design preferences. The installation of air conditioning throughout the property, along with mosquito nets, indicates attention to comfort considerations in the Mediterranean environment.

Regional Comparison

Within the Mijas property market, this villa occupies a distinctive position compared to comparable developments. While Elysea Suites (from €1,050,000) and Benjamin's Dream (from €1,112,000) offer similar pricing brackets, this property differentiates itself through its completed status, avoiding construction uncertainties associated with some newer developments. The 1065m² plot provides considerably more outdoor space than typical apartment developments in the area, offering privacy that communal properties cannot match. Compared to properties closer to the coast, this villa benefits from elevation and views while maintaining reasonable access to beaches. The location between Mijas Pueblo and Fuengirola offers more diverse lifestyle options than properties further inland, yet avoids the density and potential noise of purely coastal developments. Its south and south-west orientation provides superior sunlight exposure compared to many properties in the region, a significant advantage for those prioritizing outdoor living and natural light.
