This detached villa is situated in Mijas, in the province of Málaga, at approximately 213 metres above sea level on the lower slopes of the Sierra de Mijas. The property offers 553 m² of built space across two independent floors on a 2,091 m² plot, with seven bedrooms, five bathrooms, a private pool and sea views. The setting is suburban with everyday amenities within walking distance: a supermarket at roughly 294 metres and a pharmacy at 283 metres. Beaches around Fuengirola lie between 4.3 and 5.2 km away, and Málaga Airport is approximately 14 km by road. The villa was completed in 1970 (indicative) and is offered in good condition.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property sits in an urbanised part of Mijas, close to the coast yet elevated on a moderate slope of about 4.9% toward the sea. Mijas Pueblo, the historic white-washed village centre, is a short drive away, while Fuengirola's train station at 4.8 km connects the area to the regional rail network. Seven public transport lines and 69 stops serve the municipality, meaning a car is useful but not essential for every trip.
With seven bedrooms, five bathrooms and two fully independent floors, the layout supports multi-generational living, guest accommodation or separate rental units. Outdoor space includes a private pool, gardens, two large covered terraces and a built-in barbecue. Air conditioning (hot and cold) and a fireplace provide year-round climate control. Storage and utility rooms add practical capacity for a household of this size.
This is not a new-build development. The villa was completed in 1970 (indicative) and is described as being in good condition. The property is sold fully furnished and includes a valid tourist licence, which permits holiday rental use from the date of purchase. Buyers should factor the age of the building into inspection and maintenance planning.
The property does not include a communal residents' facility set, spa or on-site management typical of new resort developments. There is no lift, underfloor heating or energy performance label recorded in the available data. The villa is a 1970 construction, so modern insulation standards and new-build guarantees do not apply. EV charging is available in the wider area (3.7 km), not at the property itself.

This property suits several recognisable situations. A large or multi-generational family needing seven bedrooms and two independent living floors would use the full volume, with the lower unit absorbing adult children, grandparents or long-term guests. An investor or operator focused on holiday rentals can draw on the existing tourist licence and the furnished condition, operating rental income from completion, the 10 hotels and 2,131 tourist beds in the municipality indicate an established visitor market. A combined model is also documented as feasible: living on the main floor while letting the lower unit separately. Buyers seeking a single new-build apartment with communal facilities would not match this property; it is a 1970 villa requiring the maintenance planning that age implies. Households that rely entirely on public transport should note that while seven bus lines and 69 stops serve Mijas, and Fuengirola station is 4.8 km away, a car remains practical for beach trips, airport runs and golf. Buyers who want sea views with substantial outdoor space, pool, gardens, two covered terraces, at a walkable distance from daily shopping will find that combination here. Those wanting a frontline beach location will not: the nearest sand at Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal is 4.3 km away, downhill on a moderate slope.
The available documentation describes the property in good condition without specifying the year or scope of any renovation. Interior photographs show a modern bathroom with a double vanity unit and walk-in shower, indicating that at least part of the wet areas has been updated. Fitted wardrobes are present in the bedrooms. Climate control consists of air conditioning units providing both hot and cold air, supplemented by a fireplace, a conventional arrangement for a villa of this period, rather than central heating or underfloor systems. The kitchen is described as spacious but its specification and appliance inventory are not detailed in the data. Outdoor construction includes two substantial covered terraces, one with a built-in barbecue, and a pergola terrace visible in the photography. The pool is an oval design set within a mature tropical garden. Structural and installation condition cannot be assessed from the data provided; a 1970 build of this size warrants a full technical survey covering electrics, plumbing, damp and pool installation before purchase. No energy performance certificate details are recorded in the available data. Storage and utility rooms are listed as present. The lower floor's independence implies separate metering or at least separate access, though this should be verified. Buyers comparing against new-build standards should note the absence of modern insulation requirements, developer guarantees and contemporaneous building regulations from the original construction period.
The asking price is €1,395,000. On a built-area basis this equates to roughly €2,520 per m² for the 553 m² of construction, with the 2,091 m² plot included. Within Mijas, comparable new-build projects such as Elysea Suites (from €1,056,000), Benjamin's Dream (from €1,112,000) and Alexandra's Dream (from €999,000) are priced lower, though these are typically smaller apartment or townhouse formats rather than a seven-bedroom detached villa with over 2,000 m² of land. The property is sold fully furnished and includes a valid tourist licence, which affects the total acquisition cost calculation. Availability is immediate, as the build is completed.
Daily life here is shaped by a combination of elevation, space and proximity to services. The villa stands in a suburban street context within Mijas municipality, where a supermarket and pharmacy are both under 300 metres away, an unusual degree of walkability for a property of this size. Restaurants, cafés and banks cluster within a two-kilometre radius, with 29 restaurants recorded in that zone. The morning routine might involve breakfast on one of the covered terraces with the sea view to the south, since the property faces east, south and west and captures sun through most of the day. The lower floor functions as an independent unit, which in practice means the household can separate living arrangements: extended family, visiting guests or rental tenants can come and go without crossing the main floor. The lower level also contains an entertainment area with a bar, pool table and wine cellar, which serves as a communal gathering point. The pool and gardens occupy the plot alongside two large covered terraces, one of which is set up as a flexible space, the listing suggests yoga or an art workshop as possible uses. With roughly 3,886 hours of sunshine per year and an average annual temperature of 17.8°C, outdoor living is practical for most of the year. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, runs to about four months, though the private pool extends this window. Mijas municipality counts some 95,104 residents (INE, 2025), which supports year-round services rather than a purely seasonal infrastructure. The area is not isolated: 266 sports facilities are recorded locally, and 34 local public holidays per year structure the municipal calendar.
The immediate surroundings combine residential calm with practical density. Within 300 metres there is a supermarket and a pharmacy; within two kilometres, 29 restaurants, three cafés and four banks. Two health centres serve the municipality, with the nearest hospital at 6.6 km. For families, the municipality records 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools, with the Instituto de Educación Secundaria Villa de Mijas 1.3 km away. Sports infrastructure is substantial: 266 facilities across the municipality, including the Lew Hoad Tennis and Padel Club at 2.0 km and Karting Mijas at 2.7 km. Three viewpoints within roughly two kilometres, Mirador Juan Antonio Gómez Alarcón, Mirador Hermanos Nuñez Andreu and Mirador de Cañada Gertrudis, mark the hillside terrain and provide walking destinations. The Fuengirola Supercharger for electric vehicles sits 4.6 km away. Rail access runs through Fuengirola station (4.8 km), Carvajal (4.9 km) and Torremuelle (7.1 km) on the Cercanías line toward Málaga. Outside the summer months the area remains active given the resident population of over 95,000, though coastal traffic between Fuengirola and Mijas increases in July and August.
The map shows the villa's position on the Mijas hillside, roughly midway between Fuengirola's beaches (4-5 km downhill) and the white-washed village of Mijas Pueblo. Note the supermarket and pharmacy within 300 metres, the golf cluster to the northeast, and the motorway corridor linking Málaga airport (14 km) and Marbella (24 km).

Mijas occupies a middle position in the Costa del Sol Occidental region, between Fuengirola's urban coast and the inland sierra. Málaga city and its airport lie about 24 km and 14 km respectively to the northeast; Marbella sits 24 km to the southwest. This places the property roughly equidistant from the region's two largest employment and cultural centres. Within Mijas, the property sits closer to the coastal urbanisation belt than to Mijas Pueblo itself, at an intermediate elevation that separates it from both the beachfront and the mountain village.
The nearest beach, Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal, is 4.3 km away on a route descending roughly 4.9% in gradient; Playa de Torreblanca (4.7 km), Playa de los Boliches (5.2 km) and Playa de San Francisco (4.9 km) offer alternatives, with Fuengirola's marina at 5.2 km. Golf options cluster nearby: Campo Los Lagos at 3.8 km, Campo Los Olivos at 3.9 km, Mijas Golf at 5.7 km and Santana Golf & Country Club at 6.3 km. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is approximately 14 km by road (about 17 km straight-line), typically a 20-25 minute drive. Gibraltar Airport is roughly 79 km away. Málaga city (579,076 inhabitants) and Marbella (147,958 inhabitants) both lie about 24 km in opposite directions, giving access to two substantial urban centres within half an hour.

The property stands at 213 metres above sea level on the Sierra de Mijas foothills, which produces the sea and panoramic views recorded in the listing. The slope toward the coast measures a moderate 4.9%, meaning walks to the shore involve a consistent return climb. The climate data records 3,886 sunshine hours per year and an average annual temperature of 17.8°C, with monthly averages ranging between 14°C and 26°C. The sea warms to 20°C or above for approximately four months per year, defining the comfortable sea-swimming season; the private pool extends the swimming period independently of sea temperature. The hillside position benefits from airflow and evening relief in summer compared with the immediate coastline, while winter nights can be a few degrees cooler than at sea level. The garden setting with mature tropical planting reflects the mild frost-free conditions at this altitude.

Mijas municipality holds five Blue Flag beaches: Calahonda (Riviera), Calahonda I (Royal Beach-La Luna), El Bombo, El Chaparral and La Cala. These lie on the municipality's 12-kilometre coastal strip, all within a short drive of the villa. The closest access points to the property are the Fuengirola-side beaches at Torreblanca-Carvajal and Los Boliches. Golf forms the second recreational pillar: four courses sit within 6.3 km, including the two Mijas Golf courses (Los Lagos and Los Olivos) that together form one of the Costa del Sol's larger golf complexes. Padel and tennis are available at the Lew Hoad club 2.0 km away, and the municipality's 266 recorded sports facilities cover everything from municipal gyms to water sports. Fuengirola's marina at 5.2 km adds sailing and boat-trip options.

Within Mijas, the comparable projects listed, Elysea Suites (from €1,056,000), Benjamin's Dream (from €1,112,000) and Alexandra's Dream (from €999,000), represent the new-build segment, typically apartments or smaller-format homes with communal facilities and developer warranties. This villa occupies a different position in the local market: a resale detached property of considerable scale, where the €1,395,000 price buys 553 m² of construction and 2,091 m² of land rather than a new finish. The trade-off is direct. New-build comparables offer contemporary energy performance, shared pools and gyms, and structural guarantees, but on smaller footprints. This villa offers volume, land, two independent floors and an existing tourist licence, against a 1970 construction date and the maintenance profile that entails. Regionally, the property sits in Mijas's intermediate price band. Marbella's comparable detached stock generally commands higher figures; inland Mijas and the Fuengirola periphery offer cheaper alternatives at the cost of view, plot size or amenity proximity. The municipal market recorded approximately 3,800 property transactions, indicating an active resale environment, and the tourism base of 10 hotels and 2,131 beds supports rental demand for licensed properties. Buyers weighing this villa against the new-build comparables are effectively choosing between scale and licence on one hand and build age on the other; both positions have functioning demand within the same municipality.
