Echelon Estates Real Estate

Some homes are about what's inside. This one is about what's above it.

Three levels climb from a private garden to a rooftop solarium with open sea views — a proper outdoor room, not an afterthought. Two shaded seating areas under pergolas, a built-in barbecue beneath a whitewashed Andalusian chimney, sun loungers, and a table made for evenings that run long. Of the 194 m² here, 58 are terrace. That is the point of this house.

One floor below, the living room opens onto something harder to find: a covered terrace framed by traditional arches on exposed brick columns, marble underfoot, wrought iron at the rail, looking out over terracotta rooftops and cypress to the Mediterranean. Nobody builds this any more.

Inside, the ground floor has been opened up around a fully renovated kitchen — light oak, dark stone, integrated double oven, induction hob, American fridge-freezer, breakfast bar, finished with hand-painted azulejos. It runs straight into the living and dining space. There's a guest toilet and a laundry room, and at the front door, a private garden and a storage room.

Upstairs, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the master ensuite, with private terraces off two of the rooms. On the top level, just before the door to the roof, a smaller room currently used as a study — the kind of space that becomes an office, a gym, or a spare bed when family come to stay.

The urbanisation is quiet and mature: established communal gardens, a swimming pool, and enough room at the front that parking has never been a question.

Vista Verde sits on the Mijas road, in the useful middle of the Costa del Sol. Fuengirola's beaches and restaurants are five minutes down the hill. Mijas Pueblo — white streets, mountain air, the view over the whole coast — is ten minutes up. Málaga airport is around twenty.

For a family that wants real outdoor space, sea views, and both the coast and the campo within a few minutes' drive, it's an unusual combination at this level of the market.
