Description
Those who know the coastline of Mojácar will recognise Casa La Mena. Set directly above the Mediterranean between Mojácar Playa and Playa Macenas, this exceptional private property occupies approximately 77,830 m² of protected land.
At its heart is a single-level main residence of approximately 600 m², accompanied by a 48 m² double garage, an independent guest residence, technical buildings and a 648 m² fenced tennis court.
What makes Casa La Mena particularly distinctive is not simply its scale or position, but the way the house was conceived for its setting. Traditional Andalusian architecture is integrated naturally into the hillside, with arches, terraces and large glazed openings framing the Mediterranean throughout the house.
The Main Residence
The principal reception rooms flow naturally from one to another, connected by covered terraces and views towards the sea. The Moorish drawing room is perhaps the most remarkable room, with its high ceiling, feature fireplace and observatory.
The dining room and contemporary kitchen open onto a terrace overlooking Playa Macenas, the Mediterranean and the swimming pool. Beyond lies the family sitting room, where the sea remains a constant presence.
The three private suites follow the same principles of light and orientation. The principal suite has its own private terrace with uninterrupted sea views, together with a spacious bedroom, sitting area, dressing room and bathroom with walk-in shower and a bath with sea views. Two further suites each include a bedroom, bathroom, dressing room and sitting area, opening onto a private terrace or balcony.
Around the House
The atmosphere changes remarkably quickly from the restaurants, beach bars and activity of Mojácar Playa to the quiet of the estate. Around the house, mature gardens, terraces and patios provide different perspectives over the landscape.
The swimming pool lies to the east, deliberately sheltered from the prevailing Levante wind, with views towards Sierra Cabrera, Mojácar Playa and the coastline. The terrace adjoining the dining room and kitchen looks directly towards Playa Macenas and the Mediterranean.
The 77,830 m² of protected land provide an exceptional degree of privacy and preserve the property's relationship with its surroundings.
The independent guest residence beneath the main house has been fully renovated and offers 80 m² of built area, with 65 m² of useful internal space, its own entrance and a private terrace with sea views. It comprises a living area, bedroom and bathroom, with provision for a kitchen, and can function entirely independently.
The original 44 m² water house has also been preserved. It has not been renovated and offers possibilities for future use, subject to the necessary permissions.
The fenced 648 m² tennis court requires renovation and could remain a tennis court, become a basketball court or perhaps in the future, become a landing for a private aerial vehicle, subject to the necessary permissions.
A Respectful Renovation
The most recent renovation modernised Casa La Mena while preserving its architecture. Roofs, insulation, floors, ceilings, walls and technical installations were renewed, with much of the finishing by Porcelanosa.
The main residence now benefits from underfloor heating, new electrical and plumbing installations, mains water, a contemporary kitchen with high-end appliances, bespoke wardrobes and bathrooms, air conditioning, all new windows, a thermodynamic water heater and a double water pressure pump. The works were carried out with the corresponding licences.
Mojácar Playa, Playa Macenas and Cabo de Gata
Casa La Mena occupies a rare position between Mojácar Playa and Playa Macenas, directly overlooking the Mediterranean. Mojácar Playa offers restaurants, beach bars, boutiques and everyday amenities along its long seafront promenade and remains active throughout the year. To the south, Playa Macenas leads towards a protected stretch of coastline, with coves and natural beaches continuing towards Carboneras and the Cabo de Gata Natural Park.
The location combines two very different experiences: the restaurants, beach bars and rhythm of Mojácar Playa just two minutes away, and the extraordinary privacy of a substantial private estate surrounded by protected landscape.
Casa La Mena is not simply a house beside the sea. It is a rare property shaped by its hillside, its landscape and its relationship with the Mediterranean.
