Villa in Mijas, Malaga

Set directly on the beachfront at Mijas Costa, this detached villa offers a rare chance to create a home right on the Mediterranean. The property currently comprises two independent apartments, each with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious living room, a kitchen and its own private entrance. Renovation is required, so buyers can either keep the flexible dual layout or reconfigure the 315 m² of living space into a single beach villa.

The covered terrace enjoys panoramic views over the sea, and a small private gate leads straight onto the sand. The 577 m² plot includes a private pool set in an Andalusian-style patio. There is ample private parking and a garage currently used for storage. Other features include a fireplace, fitted wardrobes, en-suite bathrooms, double glazing and a utility room.

• Four bedrooms and four bathrooms across two independent apartments
• Covered terrace with panoramic sea views
