A key-ready three-bedroom townhouse situated in a gated residential development in Riviera del Sol, in the municipality of Mijas on the Costa del Sol. The property offers 119 m² of living space across two floors, with three bathrooms, a fully fitted kitchen, air conditioning, a private garden of roughly 108 m² and access to a communal pool. The asking price is fixed at €532,000. Completed in 2025, the home is delivered unfurnished and configured around open-plan living with mountain views over the surrounding hills.
Against comparable new-build projects on the Costa del Sol, this townhouse occupies the upper-middle of the current market. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts at €269,950 and Lantana Residencial in Mijas at €205,000, both materially cheaper, but both further east or inland-oriented and typically offering apartments or smaller units rather than a 119 m² townhouse with a private garden. Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona starts at €321,000, closer in price territory but on the western Costa, roughly an hour from Malaga airport versus about 20 minutes from Riviera del Sol. What distinguishes this property from the from-price alternatives is substance rather than size: it is finished, key-ready stock in a gated complex with three bathrooms, a private garden of around 108 m² and communal pool access. Off-plan buyers at the comparables accept construction timelines, phase risk and the possibility of specification changes; here the product can be inspected as built. Location-wise, Riviera del Sol sits in a sweet spot between Fuengirola and Marbella that few comparables match. The concentration of three golf courses within 1.6 km is a genuine differentiator, while the flat 1.1% gradient to beaches 3.8 km away is rare on a coastline where many new developments climb the hillsides at gradients that make walking impractical. Median provincial income of €16,450 and an active market of roughly 3,800 annual transactions indicate a functioning resale environment, relevant for buyers weighing eventual exit options. The trade-off is that €532,000 buys a townhouse here rather than a villa further inland, and the outlook is towards the hills rather than the sea.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Riviera del Sol is an established residential zone between Fuengirola and Marbella, part of Mijas Costa. The townhouse lies in a gated urbanisation at about 45 metres above sea level on flat terrain, roughly 3.8 km from the nearest beaches as the crow flies. Golf courses sit within 2 km, and Fuengirola's train station is 3.7 km away in a straight line.
The layout serves households that want three bedrooms and three bathrooms within a manageable footprint. Open-plan living connects the kitchen, dining and sitting areas, while the private garden allows outdoor use and leaves room to add a private pool. A communal pool and gated access cover recreation and security without single-owner maintenance obligations.
The development was completed in 2025 and the property is key-ready, meaning buyers can move in without waiting for construction. The townhouse is delivered unfurnished with a fully fitted kitchen and air conditioning already installed. Delivery dates for completed stock are indicative of the build year rather than a future handover moment.
The property does not include a private pool, though one may be added in the garden subject to permissions. It is sold unfurnished. No sea views are listed; the outlook is towards mountains and hills. There is no on-site supermarket or school within the urbanisation itself, and no private garage or storage room is specified in the available data.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to the Costa del Sol who needs three bedrooms and three bathrooms within a sensible budget, and who values a gated community over a standalone villa, would find the layout practical. The 119 m² footprint keeps cleaning and maintenance proportionate while still separating bedrooms across two floors. Second-home buyers from northern Europe form another typical group. The key-ready status means a summer move-in is possible without construction delays, and the communal pool removes the upkeep of private pool ownership during long absences. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport is roughly 21 km away as the crow flies, which keeps arrival and departure travel short. Investors form a third group. Riviera del Sol sits in a zone with around 3,800 housing transactions per year, indicating an active resale and rental market, and the area's tourism base of ten hotels and 2,131 beds signals steady seasonal rental demand. It suits buyers less well if the priority is walking to the beach every day: at 3.8 km straight-line to the coast, a car or bicycle is a practical part of life here. Buyers wanting sea views or a furnished handover would also need to look elsewhere in the segment.
As a 2025 completion, the townhouse reflects current Costa del Sol building standards. The kitchen is fully fitted rather than a bare shell, meaning appliances and cabinetry are in place at handover. Air conditioning is installed throughout, which matters in a climate where average monthly temperatures range from 14°C in the cooler months to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 18.6°C. The interior photographs show a contemporary specification: a bathroom with a glass walk-in shower and a vanity unit, and an open-plan living, dining and kitchen arrangement designed to maximise natural light across the ground floor. The exterior imagery shows landscaped communal areas with lawn and sunbeds around the pool zone, consistent with a developer-maintained urbanisation. The property is delivered unfurnished, so the new owner budgets separately for furniture and any personal adjustments. The private garden is a finished outdoor space with the documented possibility of adding a swimming pool, subject to community rules and municipal permission, buyers should verify this with the community before purchase. Two practical points deserve attention. No private garage or storage room is listed in the data, so parking arrangements within the gated complex should be confirmed. And no energy performance details are specified in the available documentation; buyers can request the relevant certificates through the selling agent during due diligence.
This is an existing, completed home with a fixed asking price of €532,000, not a from-price on a price list. For that amount the buyer receives 119 m² of living space, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private garden of approximately 108 m², a fitted kitchen, air conditioning and communal pool access within a gated complex. The property was completed in 2025 and is available immediately as key-ready stock. Buyers comparing against off-plan developments in the region should note that completed homes in this segment often carry a premium over pre-construction pricing, balanced against the absence of construction risk and waiting time.
Daily life here revolves around a low-maintenance townhouse in a gated community geared towards holiday and residential use. Mornings can start in the private garden or on the terrace, with mountain views across the hills and valleys behind Mijas Costa. The open-plan ground floor combines cooking, eating and living in one space, which works well for families and for couples who host guests. The setting is quietly residential rather than a beachfront strip. The nearest beaches, including Playa del Castillo, Playa Mati and El Chaparral, are about 3.8 km away as the crow flies, so a short drive or a cycle ride is part of the routine for a swim. Five restaurants and two pharmacies within 2 km cover basic daily needs, while larger shopping takes place in Fuengirola, 3.7 km away in a straight line, or in Marbella 16 km further along the coast. Golf is unusually close: three courses, Los Lagos at 1.1 km, and Cerrado del Águila and Los Olivos at roughly 1.6 km, sit within a few minutes' reach. Padel players have Club de Pádel Cerrado del Águila at 1.5 km. The flat terrain between the house and the coast, with an average gradient of about 1.1%, makes walking and cycling realistic options for reasonably fit residents. Because the area hosts ten hotels and just over 2,100 tourist beds, the neighbourhood is busier in summer and calmer outside the season, which is typical for this stretch of Mijas Costa.
The immediate surroundings combine residential calm with good practical accessibility. Within 2 km there are five restaurants and two pharmacies, which covers everyday needs without leaving the neighbourhood. Two health centres serve the wider area, and education options are substantial: 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools within reach, a relevant figure for families considering year-round residence rather than holiday use. Fuengirola, 3.7 km away as the crow flies, functions as the practical service hub: its train station connects towards Malaga along the Cercanías coastal line, and its marina, Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola at 4.3 km, adds dining and leisure. Public transport in the zone consists of 4 lines with 50 stops, giving car-free residents a workable, if limited, alternative to driving. By car, the A-7 coastal motorway and the AP-7 toll road run inland of the urbanisation, linking Marbella at 16 km and Malaga at 35 km straight-line distance. The gradient towards the beach is a flat 1.1%, so cycling to the coast along the local roads is realistic. For electric vehicle owners, the Fuengirola Supercharger lies 7.7 km away.
The map shows the property's position in Riviera del Sol, with the golf courses of Mijas clustered to the north, the beaches of Mijas Costa 3.8 km to the south-east and Fuengirola's town centre and station just beyond. Marbella lies 16 km along the coast towards the south-west.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Riviera del Sol occupies the central stretch of Mijas Costa, positioned between Fuengirola to the north-east and Marbella to the south-west. This places it within roughly 16 km of Marbella and 35 km of Malaga, giving residents access to two of the coast's largest employment and service centres while living in a lower-density residential zone. Along the Costa del Sol as a whole, the area functions as a mid-market residential belt: less expensive than central Marbella, more established than some Estepona developments, and better connected to the airport than the western Costa. With around 3,800 annual housing transactions in the local market, liquidity is solid for a resale purchase.
Distances below are straight-line; road distances are longer. Beaches: the nearest, Playa del Castillo, Playa Mati and Playa El Chaparral, are each 3.8 km away, a few minutes by car or a flat cycle. Marinas at Fuengirola (4.3 km) and Cabopino (9.1 km) broaden the waterfront offer. Towns: Marbella lies 16 km away with roughly 148,000 inhabitants; Malaga, the provincial capital with about 579,000 inhabitants, is 35 km away. Airport: Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) is approximately 21 km away in a straight line, making it the natural entry point. Gibraltar (GIB) at 75 km is a secondary option. Golf and sport: three golf courses within 1.6 km, two padel and racket clubs within 2.4 km, and Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas at 2.4 km. Public transport: 4 bus lines with 50 stops serve the area; the nearest rail connection is Fuengirola station at 3.7 km.

The climate data points to a typical Mediterranean pattern: average monthly temperatures between 14°C and 26°C, an annual mean of 18.6°C, and a swimming season of about five months with sea temperatures at or above 20°C. That places comfortable outdoor living roughly from May into October, with mild winters that rarely demand more than a jacket in the evenings. The property sits at 45 metres above sea level with a flat 1.1% gradient to the coast, unusual for this coastline, where many residential zones climb the hillsides. The practical consequence is that walking and cycling between home and the beach require no serious climbing, and views are of the mountains and valleys inland rather than the sea. The elevated but low-lying position between the Mijas hills and the coastal plain gives the area shelter from some Atlantic weather systems, while keeping the sea breeze within reach. The viewpoint at La Cala de Mijas, 3.9 km away, is the nearest marked scenic spot for coastal panoramas.

Three beaches lie at an equal 3.8 km straight-line distance: Playa del Castillo, Playa Mati and Playa El Chaparral. This cluster around the Mijas Costa shoreline offers sandy family beaches within a short drive, with chiringuitos and water sports typical of the stretch between Fuengirola and La Cala. Golf is the strongest recreational asset of this location. Mijas Golf's Los Lagos course is 1.1 km away, with Los Olivos and the 9-hole Cerrado del Águila both at about 1.6 km, three courses within five minutes' reach, an unusually concentrated offer even by Costa del Sol standards. Racket sports are equally well served: Club de Pádel Cerrado del Águila at 1.5 km, Raquetas de Mijas at 2.0 km and the municipal sports facilities of Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas at 2.4 km. For sailing and mooring, Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola (4.3 km) and the smaller, quieter Puerto Cabopino (9.1 km) are the nearest marinas. The EV charging point at Fuengirola (7.7 km) covers electric car owners on longer journeys.
