WE STILL HAVE SOME JUNE AND AUGUST 2024 AVAILIBILTY, NOW WITH "FLASH SALE DISCOUNTED PRICES" BUT ONLY FOR A LIMITED PERIOD ONLY! PLEASE BOOK SOON TO AVOID DISSAPOINTMENT. A magnificent private detached villa with a south facing orientation in the lower part of Calahonda, near to the Norwegian church, in a very safe and quiet area both by day and night. Conveniently located right on the coast between Fuengirola and Marbella, Calahonda is normally only thirty minutes drive from Malaga airport. Our villa is in a well established urbanisation / community, and many of these properties now have their own small pools. Luckily for us, this leaves us with a beautiful, safe, well maintained and under used12 metre swimming pool in the large garden, which is shared by a small number of properties. The pool area is easily accessible through our garden gate, and is less than 20 metres away from our villa. It is not unusual that you have "exclusive" use of the pool even in the high season! The villa has a private garden with a south facing terrace that overlooks directly onto the pool, and is ideal for sunbathing, barbecues and al fresco dining. The terraced garden is accessed from the patio doors of the living room, the master bedroom and kitchen. The property is on three levels, the lower level is the terrace and large living room and the middle level is the contemporary dining room with its own doors leading out to the small west facing terrace and the fully equipped modern kitchen The three large bedrooms are on the upper level. Access to the property is from the road via the carport, access to the villa is down a flight of exterior steps to the entrance door and terrace area. Hence we do not recommend the villa as suitable for elderly, disabled and wheelchair users. A rental car is not essential, but is recommended. However there are regular buses to Fuengirola and Marbella on the main A7 road every half hour, early till late. Numerous restaurants, bars, minimarkets, supermarkets, shops, banks, pharmacy, medical centre, dentist, gym, car hire, tennis courts and the Calahonda golf course are all within a 5 or 10 minutes walk from the villa.
