Development Opportunity – Potential Townhouse Project Near Mijas Pueblo
An attractive development opportunity on the Mijas Road, located just 7 minutes from Mijas Pueblo and Fuengirola, comprising a private plot of approximately 3,141 m² with an existing villa and two independent bungalows.
The existing buildings offer the option of renovation; however, the property also presents an interesting opportunity for developers looking to redevelop the site as a residential project, subject to the necessary planning approvals and detailed project design.
The plot is classified under ADS-3 (Agrupación de Vivienda Unifamiliar Adosada – Subzona 3), with the following planning parameters:
Net buildability: 0.70 m²t/m²s
Maximum site coverage: 50%
Plot size: 3,141 m²
Approximate above-ground buildable area: 2,199 m²
Based on the permitted buildability, the theoretical development potential could accommodate approximately:
Average Unit SizeApproximate Number of Units
100 m²21–22
120 m²18
140 m²15–16
160 m²13–14
Allowing for the requirements of the final scheme — including internal access roads, parking, landscaping, refuse facilities, utilities, retaining structures, setbacks and other planning requirements — a development of approximately 14–18 townhouses may be achievable, subject to the final project design and confirmation by the relevant planning authorities.
The shape and dimensions of the plot appear well suited to this type of development, offering developers the possibility to create a boutique residential scheme in an established and highly accessible area.
The location is particularly attractive for the residential market, with Mijas Pueblo and Fuengirola both approximately seven minutes away, while the beaches, golf courses, international schools, amenities and wider Costa del Sol are all within easy reach.
For a developer, the site offers the opportunity to replace the existing dated property with a modern townhouse development in a well-connected location, potentially creating a scheme of approximately 14–18 homes depending on the final configuration.
A rare development opportunity combining a substantial plot, favourable planning parameters and an excellent location between Mijas Pueblo and Fuengirola….
Villa Renovation Opportunity with Two Independent Guest Bungalows Near Mijas Pueblo
Set in a highly convenient location just off the the Mijas Road, only 7 minutes from Mijas Pueblo and 7 minutes from Fuengirola, this spacious property offers a rare combination of a substantial private plot, a main villa and two completely independent guest bungalows.
The main villa is arranged over two levels. The principal living accommodation is located on the main floor and includes a living and dining room, separate kitchen, two good-sized bedrooms and bathrooms. The upper floor is dedicated to the master suite, accessed via the hall, which also offers the possibility of creating a more independent area of accommodation if required.
The property is currently habitable but would benefit from a complete renovation and modernisation, offering an excellent opportunity for a new owner to transform the existing layout and create a contemporary home tailored to their requirements.
On the lower level of the plot are two fully independent two-bedroom, one-bathroom bungalows. Their position below the main house means they could easily be fenced off to create a greater degree of privacy and separation. They offer considerable flexibility as guest accommodation, space for extended family or potential rental units, providing an attractive opportunity to generate additional income.
The main villa also benefits from a private swimming pool, while a double garage is located to the rear of the property.
Set on a private plot of over 3,000 m², the property offers plenty of outdoor space and considerable potential. Its location provides the best of both worlds — a peaceful, private setting with easy access to Mijas Pueblo, Fuengirola, the coast and the wider Costa del Sol.
