Erillinen huvila, Mijas Costa, Málaga

A quiet, green setting where you mostly hear birdsong and wind in the trees, five minutes from the beach by car and two minutes from restaurants and shops. A covered terrace runs along the back of the house, facing the lawn and the large pool, giving you shade through the summer months.

The house spans three floors and is served by a one-man lift down to the basement. A grand staircase rises through the centre like a tower, wrapped in tall windows that carry daylight through every level.

You enter on the ground floor, where the ceiling opens to full height. A guest toilet and the lift sit tucked under the staircase. Further in, a renovated U-shaped kitchen flows into the dining and living area, with large glass doors leading out to the covered terrace, the lawn and the pool.

Upstairs are three bedrooms with underfloor heating throughout. Two guest bedrooms each have their own balcony and share a bathroom, while the master suite has a large ensuite and its own terrace.

The basement is the flexible piece: a separate kitchen, bathroom, walk-in closet, bedroom and living area, plus a door into the garage, currently used as a workspace. It functions as a fully independent apartment as it stands, which makes it well suited to guests, family or rental income, and there is clear potential to develop it further.

With four bedrooms, generous outdoor space and a lower level that can house guests or extended family, this works equally well as a permanent family home or ‌as ‌a ‌holiday ‌base ‌on ‌the coast. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms ‌and ‌a guest toilet, ‌garage and carport, ‌garden ‌and pool. 356 ‌m² ‌built ‌on ‌a ‌500 ‌m² ‌plot.
