This detached villa stands in the established residential area of El Lagarejo, Mijas Costa, offering 482 m2 of built space on a 628 m2 plot. Completed in 2004 and key-ready, the property contains five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a lounge, dining room, separate kitchen, office, several terraces and a convertible attic. A semi-basement level houses a closed garage, wine cellar, laundry room and storage areas. The outdoor space includes a private swimming pool and parking for several vehicles. The asking price is fixed at EUR 1,100,000, with beaches roughly 4.3 km away as the crow flies and Malaga airport at about 17 km straight-line distance.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in El Lagarejo, a residential zone of Mijas Costa close to the coast. The immediate surroundings are urban, with a supermarket at 294 m and a pharmacy at 283 m, both within walking distance. Fuengirola train station lies 4.8 km away as the crow flies, and the A-7 motorway network connects the area to the wider Costa del Sol.
With five bedrooms, five bathrooms and 482 m2 spread over four floors, the layout suits households needing clearly separated living, working and leisure zones. The office and attic allow additional functions, while the semi-basement offers practical storage, a wine cellar and covered parking. Outside, a private pool and terraces support daily use of the exterior areas.
This is an existing home, not a new-build project. Construction was completed in 2004 and the property is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. The condition is listed as excellent, with air conditioning installed, pre-installed A/C and a fireplace present. Delivery dates do not apply; transfer follows the standard purchase process for resale property.
The property does not offer sea views; recorded views are of mountain, country, forest and street. Orientation is east, so afternoon sun on the main terraces is limited. The gradient to the beach is moderate at 4.9%, and the nearest sand lies 4.3 km away in a straight line, so the villa is not a walk-to-beach home. No communal facilities such as a gym or padel courts are included.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A large family requiring five bedrooms and five bathrooms with clearly defined private zones benefits from the four-floor layout, where each level can be assigned its own function. Households combining residence and work can use the office and the multi-purpose attic, avoiding the need for external premises. Buyers relocating permanently to the Costa del Sol will find the setting practical: shops and a pharmacy within 300 m, schools within the municipality, and a hospital 6.6 km away as the crow flies. Those seeking a substantial second home with space for guests and extended family also match the profile, given the multiple terraces, the private pool and the outdoor parking for several vehicles. The property suits buyers who prioritise space, privacy and an established neighbourhood over immediate beachfront living, since the nearest sand is roughly 4.3 km in a straight line. It is less suited to households wanting sea views, west-facing evening sun or a walkable beach lifestyle, as the orientation is east and views are of mountain, country and forest. Investors considering the rental or resale market in Mijas Costa can weigh the generous built area against the 2004 construction year. Finally, buyers who prefer to move in without renovation works align with the key-ready status and the listed excellent condition.
The villa was completed in 2004 and is presented in excellent condition, with the internal layout preserved across four floors and 482 m2 of built area. Climate control is addressed through three systems: installed air conditioning, pre-installed A/C allowing further extension, and a fireplace for the cooler months. The kitchen includes a modern island with a gas stove according to the photographic record, and bedrooms contain fitted wardrobes, reducing immediate furnishing costs. Terraces are divided between covered and private variants, allowing outdoor use in both summer heat and shoulder seasons. The semi-basement level demonstrates the functional depth of the construction: a closed garage, a dedicated wine cellar, a laundry room and separate storage rooms, each with a defined purpose rather than improvised space. The attic adds a further flexible layer, suitable for adaptation to a studio, guest suite or recreation room. Outdoor provision includes a private swimming pool and exterior parking for several vehicles beyond the closed garage. Finishing details visible in the imagery include a four-poster bed in a principal bedroom and balcony seating oriented toward the views, indicating that interior styling has been maintained rather than left dated. Buyers should nonetheless conduct the customary technical survey typical for a twenty-year-old property, verifying installations, waterproofing and pool equipment. No energy performance certificate details are disclosed here, and structural guarantees that apply to new builds do not transfer; the resale legal framework of ITP, notary and registry costs applies instead.
The asking price is fixed at EUR 1,100,000 for this resale villa. The price includes the agency fees and the corresponding VAT, payable by the seller. It does not include the buyer's costs: Property Transfer Tax (ITP), notary fees, Land Registry fees and administrative or gestoria fees. As an existing key-ready home completed in 2004, there is no construction phase or price list variation; the quoted figure applies to the property as it stands, including its five bedrooms, five bathrooms, private pool and garage. Comparable new-build developments in Mijas currently list from around EUR 891,000 to EUR 1,056,000, providing a reference frame for the local market. Availability is immediate upon completion of the standard purchase process.
Daily life at this villa is shaped by its four-storey layout and its position between the hills of Mijas and the coast. Mornings can begin on the east-facing covered terrace, which receives sun early in the day, with mountain and forest views across the residential zone. The kitchen and dining room are separated, so cooking and meals occupy distinct spaces, and the office provides a defined area for remote work. The attic can serve as a studio, guest room or hobby space depending on household needs. The semi-basement level handles the practical side of family life: a closed garage, wine cellar, laundry room and multiple storage rooms keep equipment, luggage and seasonal items out of the living floors. Outside parking space accommodates several vehicles, relevant for households with visitors or multiple drivers. The plot sits in a quiet urbanisation, with a supermarket 294 m away and a pharmacy 283 m away, both within a short walk. Errands such as banking or a coffee are equally close: four banks and three cafes lie within 2 km. For leisure, the private pool anchors the outdoor area for much of the year given the regional climate, while the beaches of Torreblanca-Carvajal and Los Boliches are roughly 4.3 to 5.2 km away as the crow flies, a short drive. A car is convenient but not strictly necessary for every trip, as seven public transport lines with 69 stops serve the wider area.
The immediate environment combines residential calm with practical density. Within 2 km there are 29 restaurants, 4 banks, 3 cafes and a pharmacy, meaning daily needs are met without long journeys. A supermarket lies 294 m away and the nearest pharmacy 283 m, both effectively around the corner. For education, Mijas municipality counts 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools, and healthcare is covered by 2 health centres plus a hospital 6.6 km away as the crow flies. The nearest beach, Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal, sits 4.3 km in a straight line, with Playa de Torreblanca at 4.7 km and Playa de los Boliches at 5.2 km; road distances will be longer, and the moderate 4.9% gradient means the return trip from the coast involves a steady climb. Train connections run from Fuengirola station at 4.8 km straight-line, with Carvajal at 4.9 km and Torremuelle at 7.1 km, giving access to the coastal rail line toward Malaga. Seven public transport lines with 69 stops serve the area, so a car is convenient rather than indispensable. Electric vehicle owners can charge at a point 3.7 km away or at the Fuengirola Supercharger 4.6 km distant. Recreational infrastructure includes viewpoints such as Mirador Juan Antonio Gomez Alarcon at 1.6 km, the Lew Hoad tennis and padel club at 2.0 km, and Karting Mijas at 2.7 km, with the sports inventory of the municipality listing 266 facilities in total.
The map shows the villa in El Lagarejo, an established residential pocket of Mijas Costa set back from the shoreline. Note the short walk to the supermarket and pharmacy, the cluster of viewpoints inland, and the string of beaches and golf courses toward Fuengirola. Distances shown are straight-line measurements.

The climate data indicates an average annual temperature of 17.8 degrees Celsius, with monthly averages ranging between 14 and 26 degrees. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of at least 20 degrees, lasts about four months, concentrated in summer, although the private pool extends usable swimming weeks on either side. The property sits at roughly 213 m above sea level, which moderates summer heat slightly compared with the shoreline and explains the moderate 4.9% gradient between the house and the beach. The east orientation of the villa produces morning sun on the main terraces and shade earlier in the evening, a pattern suited to breakfast outdoors and to avoiding the strongest afternoon heat. The features list records proximity to forest, and the views across mountain, country and forest confirm a green backdrop behind the built-up area. Annual rainfall is modest in the regional context, and with 34 local public holidays per year, the municipal calendar is marked by regular festivities. Sun hours in the region support year-round outdoor use of the terraces and pool area.

Within the Mijas market, this villa competes with both resale stock and new-build developments. Three current new-build projects illustrate the price context: Royal Palms lists from EUR 929,000, Elysea Suites from EUR 1,056,000 and Evergreen Homes from EUR 891,000. Those figures are starting prices for new construction, typically for smaller built areas than the 482 m2 offered here, and with delivery schedules rather than immediate availability. This villa, by contrast, is a completed 2004 resale property at a fixed EUR 1,100,000, offering roughly 230 m2 of built area per 100,000 euro of price when measured against typical new-build apartment sizes in the same bracket. The trade-off is structural age: new-build buyers receive modern regulations, warranties and usually communal facilities, while this property offers volume, a private pool, a closed garage and a flexible four-floor layout that new apartments in the same price range rarely match. Locationally, El Lagarejo sits inland of the coastal strip, roughly 4.3 km straight-line from the nearest beach, whereas several new-build competitors position closer to the shoreline or within golf urbanisations such as La Cala. On the wider Costa del Sol, Mijas occupies the middle section between Fuengirola and Marbella, both around 24 km from the municipal centre, with Malaga airport about 17 km straight-line from the property. The municipal market records approximately 3,800 housing transactions per year against a population of about 95,000, a turnover level that supports liquidity for resale homes. Buyers comparing options should weigh the immediate availability and space of this villa against the specification and common areas of new-build alternatives, and factor buyer-side costs of ITP, notary and registry fees that apply to resale purchases.
