A key-ready corner semi-detached house completed in 2024 in Riviera del Sol, on Mijas Costa between Fuengirola and Marbella. The property offers 134 m² built (109 m² usable), three bedrooms including an en-suite master, two bathrooms plus a guest WC, and a large terrace wrapping around three façades. Heating, cooling and hot water run on an aerothermal heat pump, and two private parking spaces are included. The fixed asking price is €710,526. The urbanisation has a communal pool and gardens, with quick access to the A-7 coast road.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Riviera del Sol sits in Mijas Costa, roughly halfway between Fuengirola and Marbella. The nearest beach, Playa del Castillo, lies 3.8 km away as the crow flies, and the area is flat, with an average gradient of about 1.1% towards the sea. Three golf courses sit within 1.6 km, and access to the A-7 makes regional travel straightforward.
The house is arranged over two floors: on the ground level an open-plan living and dining area of nearly 39 m², an 11 m² fitted kitchen and a guest WC; upstairs three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a dressing room. The corner position gives three exposed façades and a wrap-around terrace. Fitted wardrobes, double glazing and aerothermal climate control are in place.
Construction was completed in 2024 and the property is key-ready, requiring no renovation work. The owner has invested over €50,000 in upgrades including terrace tiling, fencing, driveway, staircase, bathrooms, kitchen and storage. Completion dates and handover details are always indicative and should be confirmed during the purchase process.
The property has no private pool; swimming is via the communal pool. It is sold unfurnished, though a full furniture package is available as an option. There is no private garden beyond the terraced area, and the plot is not detached, so boundary walls and fencing define the outdoor space. The beach is not within walking distance for most residents.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer relocating permanently to the Costa del Sol gets a turn-key home with no renovation budget: the 2024 construction and the owner's upgrade programme mean the mechanical systems, finishes and outdoor spaces are current. A household that values outdoor living but not garden maintenance will find the wrap-around terrace and communal pool a workable combination. Buyers who prioritise golf will note three courses within 1.6 km straight-line distance, including Campo Los Lagos at 1.1 km. Owners of two vehicles benefit from the two private parking spaces, a practical point in coastal urbanisations. The tourist licence suits a buyer who wants flexible occasional letting alongside personal use, provided they verify the current regulations and community rules. The property is less obvious for buyers seeking a frontline beach home, since the sea lies 3.8 km away as the crow flies and daily beach trips realistically involve a short drive. It also does not suit those wanting a detached villa with private pool and garden on a large plot; the offer here is a semi-detached house in a maintained community. For a second-home buyer flying in and out, Málaga airport lies about 21 km away in a straight line, and the Fuengirola train station is 3.7 km away, which helps with car-free arrivals, though a car remains the practical choice for daily life.
The house was built in 2024 and delivered in what the listing describes as excellent condition, with images showing modern bathrooms with glass showers and tiled finishes, a kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, and a stacked washer-dryer laundry arrangement. Beyond the base construction, the owner has invested over €50,000 in specific upgrades: terrace tiling, boundary walls and fencing, the parking area and driveway, the internal staircase, both bathrooms and the dressing room, the kitchen and storage. This level of completed work removes the most common post-purchase expenditure for coastal homes. The technical installation is a single aerothermal heat pump covering air conditioning (hot and cold) and domestic hot water, a system valued for its efficiency in the mild Mediterranean climate, where average monthly temperatures range from 14 to 26°C. Double glazing supports both thermal and acoustic comfort. Security measures include CCTV. Storage is addressed through a dedicated storage area and fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms. The appliances included are a Balay washing machine, dryer and microwave. Buyers should note that the property is sold unfurnished, so furnishing, whether through the optional package or independently, is a separate decision and cost. Independent technical verification of systems and finishes remains a normal step in the Spanish purchase process and is advisable even for recent construction.
The asking price is fixed at €710,526 for the property as described, including the completed upgrades and two private parking spaces. This is an existing, completed home rather than an off-plan purchase, so there is no price list or phase-based variation. Balay washing machine, dryer and microwave are included; the furniture package is a separate option. Ongoing costs are documented: community fees of €130.66 per month, IBI of €675.93 per year and a rubbish charge of €127.73 per year. Availability and handover timing can be confirmed on request.
Daily life in this corner house revolves around its layout and its setting within a consolidated urbanisation. Mornings can start on the wrap-around terrace, which catches light on three sides thanks to the corner position. The ground floor works as a single living zone: an open-plan sitting and dining space of almost 39 m² connects to the 11 m² fitted kitchen, so cooking and socialising stay connected. A guest WC on this level avoids constant stair use during the day. Upstairs, the three bedrooms are separated from the living area, with the master suite providing its own bathroom and dressing area. Aerothermal climate control delivers hot and cold air conditioning plus hot water from one system, which simplifies maintenance and keeps running costs predictable. The communal pool and gardens sit a few steps from the door, which suits households that want swimming access without private pool upkeep. Riviera del Sol itself is a year-round residential area rather than a seasonal resort: within 2 km there are five restaurants and two pharmacies, and the wider Mijas Costa zone records around 3,800 housing transactions per year, indicating an active, established market. Two private parking spaces remove the usual coastal parking pressure. The house holds a tourist rental licence (VUT/MA/96321), which is relevant for buyers considering occasional letting, subject to current regional rules.
Riviera del Sol functions as a residential urbanisation within Mijas Costa, positioned between Fuengirola (train station 3.7 km straight-line) and Marbella (16 km). Daily amenities are close: five restaurants and two pharmacies within 2 km, plus two health centres in the wider area. Education provision is substantial for a coastal zone, with 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools listed. The area sits at 45 m above sea level with a flat profile towards the coast, which makes walking and cycling realistic within the urbanisation itself. Public transport exists, four lines and 50 stops, but service frequency is limited compared with the towns, so most residents use a car. The A-7 gives direct road access along the coast, and the AP-7 toll motorway is also within easy reach for longer trips. The tourism footprint is moderate: ten hotels with 2,131 beds indicate a seasonal influx, but the urbanisation retains a resident character outside peak summer weeks. For leisure, the padel club Cerrado del Águila lies 1.5 km away and Raquetas de Mijas 2.0 km, while the Ciudad Deportiva Las Lagunas sports complex is 2.4 km. Málaga city, with roughly 579,000 inhabitants, is 35 km away for cultural outings, hospital care and shopping beyond local provision.
The map shows the property within Riviera del Sol, between Fuengirola and Marbella. Note the cluster of three golf courses to the north and the beach line roughly 3.8 km south; the A-7 runs along the coast connecting both directions.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Riviera del Sol occupies the central section of Mijas Costa, placing it roughly midway between Fuengirola and Marbella (16 km). This position gives access to two distinct town centres: Fuengirola for rail links, markets and everyday commerce, and Marbella for higher-end retail, dining and the old town. Málaga city and its airport sit to the east, Gibraltar to the west. Within the Costa del Sol as a whole, the area is characterised by residential urbanisations interspersed with golf courses rather than high-density resort blocks, and property activity is robust given the approximately 3,800 annual housing transactions recorded in the zone.
Distances below are straight-line; actual road distances are longer. The nearest beach, Playa del Castillo, lies 3.8 km away, with Playa Mati and Playa El Chaparral at the same distance, a few minutes by car. Two marinas sit within reach: Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola at 4.3 km and Puerto Cabopino at 9.1 km. Golf is the closest amenity of all: Campo Los Lagos at 1.1 km, Cerrado del Aguila Golf at 1.6 km and Campo Los Olivos at 1.6 km. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is approximately 21 km away as the crow flies, typically around half an hour by road; Gibraltar airport is 75 km. Rail access runs through Fuengirola station (3.7 km), on the C-1 suburban line to Málaga. Four bus lines with 50 stops serve the immediate area. Electric-vehicle drivers can use the Fuengirola Supercharger, 7.7 km away. A car remains the practical mode for most daily trips.

The climate data points to a typical western Costa del Sol profile: an average annual temperature of 18.6°C, with monthly averages running from 14°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months. The elevation of 45 m and the 1.1% gradient towards the beach mean the terrain is effectively flat, with no strenuous slopes between the house and the coast. Rainfall is concentrated in the cooler half of the year, leaving long dry summers that suit terrace use; the wrap-around terrace gains orientation flexibility from its three exposed façades, so shade or sun can be found at different hours. The La Cala de Mijas viewpoint, 3.9 km away, offers nearby walking and coastal panoramas, while the golf courses double as green corridors around the urbanisation. The mild winter temperatures also mean the aerothermal heating system operates efficiently year-round.

The nearest stretch of coast centres on Playa del Castillo, 3.8 km as the crow flies, together with Playa Mati and Playa El Chaparral at similar distances. El Chaparral is a known spot for its dune-backed character and beach bars, and the three beaches between them cover a range from busier serviced sections to quieter corners. For days on the water, Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola (4.3 km) and Puerto Cabopino (9.1 km) offer marina facilities, dining and charter options. Golf is the strongest recreational asset within immediate reach: three courses, Los Lagos, Cerrado del Águila and Los Olivos, all lie within 1.6 km. Racquet sports are covered by two padel clubs within 2 km and the municipal sports complex at Las Lagunas (2.4 km), which expands options for swimming, gym and court sports. Cycling and walking benefit from the flat terrain and the coastal promenade connections towards La Cala de Mijas, whose viewpoint sits 3.9 km away.

Against comparable new-build projects in the wider region, this property occupies a distinct position. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, but those are off-plan or new-build price lists, where the entry figure typically covers a smaller unit before upgrades, terracing and parking are specified. This Riviera del Sol house is a completed 2024 property with a fixed price of €710,526 that already includes over €50,000 of owner investment in terrace tiling, fencing, driveway, bathrooms, kitchen and storage, plus two private parking spaces. A direct comparison therefore depends on what the from-price actually delivers: a buyer at one of the new-build projects may reach a similar end cost after specifying finishes and adding parking. Locationally, Riviera del Sol sits closer to Marbella and central Costa del Sol amenities than Torre del Mar (eastern Axarquía) or Estepona (western end), while sharing the Mijas municipality with Lantana Residencial. The golf proximity here, three courses within 1.6 km, is a concrete differentiator, as is the tourist rental licence, which new-build developments in some municipalities no longer receive. Market context matters too: with roughly 3,800 housing transactions per year in the zone, resale liquidity is comparatively strong for an exit scenario. Buyers weighing this property against off-plan alternatives should compare total delivered cost, completion timing risk, and running costs: the documented community fees of €130.66 per month are modest for a gated urbanisation with pool and gardens.
