This detached villa stands on a flat plot of roughly 1,041 m² in the Mijas Golf area of Málaga province, offered key-ready with a fixed asking price of €1,325,000. Built in 1991 and since renovated, the property provides 361 m² of living space arranged over four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with marble floors, a fitted kitchen with granite worktops, a private pool, a natural lawn and a covered parking space with storage. The location combines an urban setting within walking distance of the beach with easy reach of Málaga's city centre, roughly 7.9 km from the airport as the crow flies. Nearby amenities include a supermarket, pharmacy, hospital and health centres.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in an urban environment with day-to-day amenities within walking distance. A supermarket is 73 metres away, a pharmacy 211 metres and a hospital 642 metres. The beach at Playa de la Malagueta lies 1.3 km away as the crow flies, and Málaga Airport is 7.9 km. Train stations, including Málaga María Zambrano, are within a few hundred metres, reducing dependence on a car.
The house is arranged for permanent or seasonal family use: four double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and terrace access, an en-suite bathroom, a separate utility and laundry room, and a kitchen opening to a dining room. Outside there is a private pool, a natural lawn, a traditional terracotta patio with built-in barbecue and a rear terrace. Air conditioning and a fireplace cover both seasons.
This is an existing home, completed in 1991 and described as recently renovated and in good to excellent condition. It is delivered key-ready and fully furnished, which means the buyer can occupy it directly after purchase. As with any property of this age, the actual state of installations should be verified during a technical inspection before completion.
The property does not offer sea views; recorded views are of the pool and the street. There is a covered parking space with a storage room, but no enclosed garage is listed. The house dates from 1991, so it is not a new build and falls outside guarantee schemes that apply to newly constructed homes. No plot-related data such as community fees or annual taxes are stated in the available records.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to Málaga for work or schooling will find fifteen primary schools and ten secondary schools within the wider area, plus two health centres, which reduces the practical friction of a move. A couple seeking a second home that does not require a car for every errand benefits from the walkable amenities and the proximity of train stations: El Perchel is effectively at the doorstep and María Zambrano, the region's main rail hub with connections to Madrid and the coast, is 200 metres away. Buyers who prioritise outdoor living will use the pool, patio and lawn for a large part of the year given the climate data. The house also suits multigenerational use, since four double bedrooms, three bathrooms including an en-suite, and a ground plan spread over generous square footage allow separate routines under one roof. It is less obvious for buyers wanting a secluded hillside setting with panoramic views, as the plot is urban and the views are of the pool and street. Similarly, anyone requiring an enclosed garage rather than covered parking should weigh that against the rest of the offer. For investors, the rental potential rests on the villa's location within a short distance of both beach and city centre, but returns depend on licence conditions that should be checked with the local authority.
The interior materials point to a traditional Spanish villa standard rather than a contemporary new build. Floors in the bedrooms are marble, paired with fitted wardrobes and direct terrace access from each bedroom, and the kitchen is fully fitted with granite worktops, connected to a separate dining room. Two full bathrooms and one shower room serve the four bedrooms, one of them as an en-suite. Climate control is covered from two directions: air conditioning for the summer months and a fireplace for cooler winter evenings, which suits the local pattern of mild but not tropical winters. The condition is recorded as recently renovated and good to excellent, yet the construction year of 1991 means that systems such as electrics, plumbing and glazing deserve attention during a viewing, since renovation scope is not itemised in the available data. Outside, the plot of roughly 1,041 m² is flat and enclosed by mature hedges, which delivers privacy without height differences or retaining structures. The terracotta patio with built-in barbecue is a durable, low-maintenance outdoor surface suited to the climate. Practical extras include a separate utility and laundry room, a storage room behind the covered parking area, and a rear terrace. The property is delivered fully furnished, which transfers both convenience and responsibility to the buyer: an inventory check forms part of a sensible pre-contract review.
The villa is offered as an existing home with a fixed asking price of €1,325,000, not a starting price within a wider price list. In terms of the local market, the province records around 3,800 housing transactions per year, and the property competes in the upper segment of that market given its plot size, detached format and location near the coast. At roughly €3,670 per m² of living area, the pricing reflects a complete package: furnished delivery, private pool, four double bedrooms and a substantial flat plot. Buyers should budget additionally for purchase costs, including transfer tax, notary and registry fees, which are not included in the asking price. Annual running costs such as council tax and rubbish collection apply but are not specified in the available data.
Daily life here is shaped by the combination of a villa format with a genuinely urban setting. The morning routine can run entirely on foot: the supermarket is effectively next door, the pharmacy a two-minute walk, and a hospital under ten minutes away on foot. The house itself supports an outdoor rhythm for much of the year, thanks to a south, south-west and west orientation that carries sun across the garden terrace through the afternoon. The private pool and natural lawn form the centre of the plot, with the terracotta patio and built-in barbecue providing a shaded spot for outdoor meals. Indoors, the living area opens directly onto the garden terrace, so the boundary between inside and outside stays fluid during the warmer months. With an average annual temperature of 18.9°C and monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 27°C in summer, terrace use is realistic from early spring to late autumn. The swimming season, with sea water at 20°C or above, runs for about five months. For households that split the year between Spain and another country, the fully furnished delivery and the secure community setting simplify lock-up-and-leave use. Evening options are close at hand: viewpoints such as Mirador de la Alcazaba and Mirador de Gibralfaro are 1.2 to 1.9 km away, and the marina at IGY Málaga lies 1.2 km away. Within two kilometres there are more than three hundred restaurants and over a hundred cafés, which means the area remains lively year-round rather than depending on a summer season.
Life around the villa is urban and well-serviced. Within a two-kilometre radius, the neighbourhood counts 337 restaurants, 131 cafés, 119 pharmacies, 62 banks and 19 dentists, a density that keeps daily errands short and the area active throughout the year. Health care is close: a hospital sits 642 metres from the door and two health centres operate in the wider area. Mobility is a strong point of this address. Seven public transport lines serve the surroundings with around 50 stops, and three train stations lie within 400 metres, El Perchel at the doorstep, María Zambrano at 200 metres and Guadalmedina at 400 metres, giving direct access to regional and long-distance rail. For electric car owners, a charging point is 434 metres away. On foot or by bicycle, many amenities are reachable without a car, which is unusual for a detached villa on the Costa del Sol and materially lowers transport costs. The street network is urban, so traffic intensity is higher than in rural residential areas; buyers used to quiet golf-side cul-de-sacs should calibrate expectations accordingly. At the same time, the mature hedges around the plot create a buffer from street activity within the garden itself.
The map shows the villa's position within the Málaga urban area: the beach to the south-east, the railway stations immediately around the property and the airport a short distance to the west. Distances shown are straight-line; actual road distances are longer. The concentration of amenities within a one-kilometre ring illustrates how much of daily life here happens on foot.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Within the Costa del Sol, this address occupies the urban northern end of the coastline. Málaga city itself, with roughly 579,000 inhabitants, is the regional capital and the economic anchor of the coast; the property sits inside its metropolitan fabric rather than in a resort enclave. Marbella lies 47 km to the west and Granada 90 km inland, both practical for day excursions. Compared with villa zones in Estepona or Benahavís, the trade-off here is clear: less seclusion and fewer golf views, in exchange for walkable city amenities, rail access and one of the shortest airport commutes on the coast.
The nearest beach, Playa de la Malagueta, is 1.3 km away as the crow flies, with Playa de San Andrés at 1.8 km and Playa de la Misericordia at 3.2 km, all within a short drive, cycle ride or in some cases a walk. Málaga Airport is 7.9 km straight-line, one of the shorter airport distances available on this coast, which simplifies arrivals and departures for international owners. Gibraltar Airport, at roughly 103 km, serves as a secondary option. Golf requires more travel: Club de Golf Málaga Parador is 8.2 km away, Club de Golf de Guadalhorce 9.4 km and Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez 11 km, so golfers should expect a fifteen-to-twenty-minute drive rather than walking access. Marbella lies 47 km to the west and Granada 90 km to the north-east, both reachable for day trips. Within the immediate area, sports centres including a municipal chess centre at 200 metres, a wellness centre at 400 metres and a fitness club at 700 metres cover indoor recreation, while two marinas, IGY Málaga at 1.2 km and the Real Club Mediterráneo at 1.6 km, provide mooring and waterfront activity.

The climate data describes a classic Mediterranean coastal regime: an average annual temperature of 18.9°C, monthly averages between 12°C in the coolest months and 27°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea water at 20°C or warmer, lasts about five months, roughly May to October. The elevation of 13 metres above sea level means the terrain is flat, with no slope between the house and surrounding streets, relevant for cycling, walking and accessibility. Sunshine hours in the region support outdoor living for most of the year, and the villa's south to west orientation captures afternoon and evening sun on the terraces. Rainfall concentrates in the cooler months; the fireplace and air conditioning together cover the temperature range without heavy dependence on central heating. Nature options nearby include the viewpoints at Mirador de la Alcazaba, Torre Blanca and Mirador de Gibralfaro, all under two kilometres, which double as walking destinations on the hill below the Alcazaba and Gibralfaro fortifications.

Beach life here is urban-Mediterranean rather than resort-based. Playa de la Malagueta, 1.3 km away, is the city's best-known city beach with its characteristic palm-lined promenade; Playa de San Andrés at 1.8 km and Playa de la Misericordia at 3.2 km extend the options westwards, and Playa de los Baños del Carmen at 4.1 km marks the start of the eastern coastline. Golf, by contrast, is not on the doorstep: the three nearest courses, Málaga Parador, Guadalhorce and Miguel Ángel Jiménez, lie between 8 and 11 km away, which places the villa closer to the city and sea than to the fairways despite its address. Waterfront recreation includes two marinas within 1.6 km. Indoor sport is well covered, with a wellness centre at 400 metres and a fitness club at 700 metres. The tourism footprint is moderate: ten hotels with around 2,131 beds in the area, enough to support services without turning the neighbourhood into a seasonal resort district.

Set against the wider Costa del Sol market, this villa occupies a distinct position. New-build comparables currently on the coast include Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000). Those projects sell apartments at starting prices, whereas this property is a single, completed detached home with a fixed price of €1,325,000, a different product category and purchase process. The from-prices of the new-build projects buy significantly less space, typically two or three bedrooms in a communal setting, but include modern construction standards, warranties and communal facilities. This villa counters with 361 m² of living area, a private pool, a 1,041 m² plot and immediate availability, at the cost of a 1991 construction year that places responsibility for technical condition on the buyer's due diligence. Geographically, the contrast is equally clear. New-build supply along the coast concentrates in resort municipalities, Estepona, Benahavís, Fuengirola and Mijas costa, where seclusion and golf proximity dominate. This address instead sits in the Málaga urban fabric, where the Mediterranean lifestyle comes with city infrastructure: hospitals, schools, rail links and year-round restaurants within walking distance. For buyers weighing the two models, the practical question is whether walkable urban living with one of the region's shortest airport commutes outweighs the resort-style settings available further west towards Marbella, 47 km away. The province records around 3,800 housing transactions per year, and the median income of €16,450 indicates that this villa, at its price point, addresses the upper segment of the local market, typically international buyers rather than domestic demand.
