Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in an urban setting beside Nerja's green zone, with a walking route leading down towards Burriana Beach. Playa Burriana lies approximately 912 metres away in a direct line, while Playa Carabeillo is just under one kilometre. A supermarket at 247 metres and a pharmacy at 191 metres make errands manageable on foot, and several bus stops serve the wider town.
The house offers three bedrooms and four bathrooms across 180 m², including an ensuite bathroom, a utility room and a fully fitted kitchen. Climate control covers both hot and cold air conditioning. Outdoor space consists of a private pool, covered and private terraces, a built-in BBQ and an enclosed garden. Sea and mountain views are present, with a southerly orientation. Furniture is optional.
This is an existing home, completed in 1980, and is available immediately in key-ready condition. There is no construction phase or delivery schedule to consider. Any renovation or updating would be a matter for the buyer after purchase. The condition is recorded as good, and the fixed asking price of €690,000 reflects the property as it stands.
The villa does not offer a communal pool, gym or other shared facilities; the pool is private. No lift is listed, and the spiral staircase connects the levels. Golf courses lie 54 to 58 kilometres away by direct line, which means a substantial drive. The nearest hospital is 19 kilometres distant. These points follow from the recorded property data.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A family seeking a permanent base in Nerja would find three bedrooms, four bathrooms and walking access to schools and shops, four schools and nine pharmacies lie within two kilometres, while the enclosed garden and private pool suit household life with children. A couple looking for a holiday home within reach of the sea benefits from the southerly terraces, the BBQ area and the proximity of Burriana Beach under one kilometre away in a direct line. Buyers planning to rent out the property gain from the combination of a private pool, sea views and the Burriana location, which draws steady tourist demand; Nerja records around 501 housing transactions per year and a hotel stock of 2,409 beds, indicating an active visitor economy. The house is less suited to buyers wanting new construction, a gated community with shared facilities, or immediate golf access, the nearest courses sit 54 to 58 kilometres away in a direct line. Those who depend on proximity to a hospital should note the nearest one lies 19 kilometres distant. The spiral staircase may also matter for buyers with limited mobility. In short, the villa suits buyers who value an established, walkable coastal neighbourhood and private outdoor space over new-build specifications.
The villa dates from 1980 and is recorded in good condition, which sets expectations for the construction period rather than for contemporary new-build standards. The interior layout of 180 m² accommodates three bedrooms and four bathrooms, one of them ensuite, with a fully fitted kitchen and a separate utility room. A spiral staircase connects the levels and is a distinctive architectural element, though its compact geometry is worth inspecting in person during a viewing. Climate control is present in the form of hot and cold air conditioning, covering both seasons of the Andalusian year. The covered terrace extends usable space into shoulder seasons, and the private terrace, pool and built-in BBQ anchor the outdoor area. Flooring, window frames, insulation and electrical installations should be assessed individually, as these details vary within properties of this age; the recorded data does not specify them. The utility room supports practical laundry and storage functions. Furniture is optional, giving the buyer flexibility to take the property furnished or unfurnished depending on price agreements. Overall, the finishing level reflects a well-maintained older villa: functional, characterful and equipped with modern comfort features such as air conditioning, but built to the standards of its construction year rather than current energy regulations.
The villa is offered at a fixed asking price of €690,000 as an existing, key-ready home. Built in 1980 with 180 m² of living space, three bedrooms and four bathrooms, it includes a private pool, enclosed garden, built-in BBQ, covered and private terraces, and private parking. Furniture is available optionally and would be negotiated separately. Because this is a resale property rather than a new-build development, there is no price list or phased release; the single asking price applies to the whole property. Transaction costs, notary fees and taxes are additional and depend on the final purchase arrangements.
Daily life at this villa revolves around a compact, walkable neighbourhood near Burriana Beach. Morning shopping is a matter of a few minutes on foot: the supermarket is 247 metres away and the pharmacy 191 metres, both in a straight line. The residential setting beside the green zone keeps the immediate surroundings quiet, while the beach, its chiringuitos and the restaurants of the Burriana area are reached by a pleasant walking route. The house itself supports a mixed rhythm of indoor and outdoor living. The 180 m² interior holds three bedrooms and four bathrooms, with a fully fitted kitchen and a utility room handling practical tasks. Outside, the southerly orientation gives the terraces long hours of sun, and the pool, BBQ area and enclosed garden extend daily use into the open air for most of the year. Sea and mountain views frame the horizon. A car is not strictly necessary for daily needs, amenities are reachable on foot or by bicycle, but the town's 23 bus stops across 6 lines add flexibility for longer trips. Nerja itself has around 22,000 inhabitants, with 7 primary schools and 2 secondary schools, 122 restaurants within two kilometres and 125 sports facilities. The villa works as a permanent residence, a holiday home or a rental property; its layout and position near the beach support all three uses.
The Burriana area combines residential calm with practical density. Within two kilometres there are 122 restaurants, 29 cafés, 13 banks, 9 pharmacies, 5 dentists and 4 schools, so the neighbourhood functions year-round rather than only in the tourist season. The town centre of Nerja, with about 22,132 inhabitants in 2025, lies within easy reach, and the 6 public transport lines with 23 stops connect the villa to the wider municipality, including the historic centre and the Balcón de Europa. Distances are measured in a direct line: the supermarket at 247 metres and the pharmacy at 191 metres make daily shopping a short walk. The green zone beside the property provides a walking route down towards Burriana Beach, at roughly 912 metres. An EV charging point stands 722 metres away. The terrain slopes towards the coast, the gradient to the beach is recorded at 16 per cent, described as very steep, meaning the return walk from the sea involves a climb, a factor relevant for older residents or those with reduced mobility. Málaga, with about 579,000 inhabitants, lies 48 kilometres away, and Granada 54 kilometres, positioning the villa between two of Andalusia's larger cities.

Nerja occupies the eastern end of the Costa del Sol, about 50 kilometres east of Málaga city and at the gateway to La Axarquía. Granada lies 54 kilometres away in a direct line, placing both cities within day-trip range, while Marbella is 94 kilometres west. The town's scale, around 22,000 inhabitants and a modest hotel stock, keeps it quieter than the resort belt further west, and its position east of the main tourist axis gives it a more residential character. For buyers comparing the Costa del Sol, Nerja represents the quieter, more traditionally Spanish end of the coastline.
Playa Burriana lies approximately 912 metres away as the crow flies, with Playa Carabeillo at 974 metres and Playa Piedra de Tarzán at 1.1 kilometres. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is the closest airport; the source data records 56 kilometres in a direct line, and road distance and driving time will be longer. Gibraltar Airport lies roughly 155 kilometres away and Alicante-Elche around 332 kilometres. Golf requires planning: Club de Golf Málaga Parador sits 54 kilometres away in a straight line, with Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 57 kilometres and Club de Golf de Guadalhorce at 58 kilometres. Marina del Este, the nearest marina, is 9.8 kilometres distant. The nearest hospital is 19 kilometres away. Local mobility is strong on foot and by bicycle, with 6 bus lines and 23 stops in Nerja, and the villa includes private parking for car owners. All distances given are straight-line figures; actual road routes are longer.

Nerja records an average annual temperature of 16.5°C, with monthly averages ranging from 13°C in the coldest months to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about four months, concentrating beach use from roughly June to September. The municipality sits within La Axarquía, a comarca of hills and coves between the Mediterranean and the mountains behind, the villa itself has recorded mountain views as well as sea views. Nearby natural landmarks include the viewpoints at Mirador Tajo de los Bueyes, 2.6 kilometres away, Torre Vigía de Maro at 3.8 kilometres, and the Aqueduct of El Águila at 4.7 kilometres. The terrain falls towards the sea at a gradient of about 16 per cent, which shapes both the views and the physical effort of walks to the coast. The steeply shelving coastline east of town protects a string of quieter coves such as Playa de Maro and Cala del Pino, both around four kilometres away in a direct line.

Nerja holds four Blue Flag beaches: Burriana, Maro, Playazo-Chucho and Torrecilla, an unusually strong concentration for a town of this size. Playa Burriana, the nearest at roughly 912 metres in a straight line, is the town's main full-service beach with restaurants, cafés and water-oriented leisure along its promenade. Playa Carabeillo follows at 974 metres. Further east, Playa de las Alberquillas at 3.8 kilometres and Playa de Maro at 4.0 kilometres sit within the protected cliff and cove landscape of the Maro area, reached by car or on foot along the coastal paths. Marina del Este at 9.8 kilometres offers berths and water sports. On land, the municipality counts 125 sports facilities, and 122 restaurants within two kilometres of the villa cover daily and festive dining alike. Golf is the one recreation that requires a drive of roughly 54 kilometres or more in a direct line to the nearest course.

Within Nerja itself, this villa at €690,000 sits below the entry price of Destination in Nerja, a development listed from €850,000, positioning it in the middle segment of the local detached-villa market. The property's distinguishing asset is its location: a walkable distance of roughly 912 metres to Playa Burriana, one of four Blue Flag beaches in the municipality, combined with a private pool and parking, a combination that remains relatively scarce in a town where much of the housing stock consists of apartments. Compared with options further west on the Costa del Sol, the price reads differently. Acqua Gardens in Estepona starts from €524,600 and Aby Upper from €320,000, but both are new-build apartment projects, not detached villas, and Estepona lies roughly 94 kilometres from Nerja, closer to Marbella and the western resort belt. Buyers weighing €690,000 here against those developments are comparing a 1980 key-ready villa with private land in an established eastern town against new construction with shared facilities in the west. The two markets behave differently: Nerja, with about 22,000 residents and 501 housing transactions per year, is a smaller, more residential market oriented towards year-round living and holiday rentals, while Estepona targets a larger international buyer base. The trade-off for Nerja's quieter character is distance from services concentrated in the west, the nearest golf courses stand 54 to 58 kilometres away in a straight line, whereas Estepona sits amid a dense band of courses. For buyers prioritising walkable daily life, an authentic Spanish town and proximity to both Málaga and Granada, this villa's position in the eastern Costa del Sol offers a different proposition from the western new-build alternatives.
