A private and atmospheric Andalusian villa, set within beautiful mature gardens and just five minutes from the picturesque village of Mijas Pueblo.
This highly unusual detached property is a rare find. Full of authentic Andalusian character, charm and atmosphere, it offers the wonderful combination of complete privacy and tranquillity while remaining close to the amenities and attractions of the Costa del Sol.
Set on an impressive 1,680 m² plot, with approximately 240 m² of built accommodation, the south-facing villa is surrounded by beautifully established gardens filled with mature trees, shrubs, flowering plants and lawns. From every aspect of the property, there are wonderful views towards the sea.
Behind its gated entrance, the outside world seems to disappear. The gardens are a delight to explore, with secluded corners, water features, little waterfalls and an ornate pond creating a wonderfully peaceful setting. The property is completely private and not overlooked.
Inside, the villa retains the warmth and character of a traditional Andalusian home. Original terracotta floors, thick plastered walls, charming architectural details and beautiful archways give the property a timeless feel, while naturally helping to keep it cool during the summer and warm in the winter.
The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, with three bedrooms plus a further room which could be used as a fourth bedroom, together with two bathrooms and a guest cloakroom. The bedrooms are accessed via a beautiful gallery, while the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom featuring a Jacuzzi bath. The third bedroom has its own en-suite and independent access from outside, making it particularly versatile for guests or family members.
The spacious main sitting room is one of the home's most appealing spaces, with elegant archways opening towards the gardens and bringing the outside in. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate dining room, while the kitchen itself is fitted with high-quality German appliances, including Miele and Bosch.
Outdoor living is very much part of the appeal. The kitchen terrace features a pizza oven, while the gardens include a fully fitted garden shed and even a specially designed fish smoker. There is also a heated swimming pool and sauna shed, providing the perfect setting for relaxed days at home.
The property is also exceptionally well equipped. Two solar systems provide hot water, while photovoltaic panels provide full solar power. Automatic irrigation keeps the extensive gardens beautifully maintained, and the villa benefits from full central heating, air conditioning and a comprehensive alarm system with cameras.
The current German owners have lovingly enjoyed and cared for this exceptional property for 20 years, creating what can only be described as a little jewel in this highly desirable location.
This is not a modern box. It is a stylish, characterful and wonderfully atmospheric home with twists and turns, authentic Andalusian details and a sense of discovery around every corner.
And yet, despite its peaceful and secluded setting, it is remarkably convenient: Mijas Pueblo is approximately five minutes away, Málaga and the airport around 30 minutes, with easy access to the wider Costa del Sol.
Properties with this combination of character, privacy, mature gardens, sea views and proximity to Mijas Pueblo are exceptionally rare. This is a home that really needs to be seen to appreciate its beauty and individuality.
