Villa for sale in Valtocado, Mijas, Málaga

Valtocado is one of the most renowned and prestigious urbanizations on the Costa del Sol, nestled in the Sierra of Mijas. Here you will find some of the finest villas with spectacular panoramic views.

This villa was completed in 2012 and is in excellent, like-new condition. The house is oriented to the south-west, and the roof has a shallow angle, helping keep the home cool in summer and warm in winter, reducing the additional energy required to heat or cool it. The overall design is U-shaped, sheltering the front terraces from most winds, allowing comfortable living throughout the year and helping the home achieve a BB energy rating. The builder paid attention to detail when designing the house, including underfloor heating throughout the villa, gas oil, and solar panels. All of this is easily controlled in the excellent machine room in the basement area.

The villa has 5 bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a guest toilet, all on one level, which is another great asset. You enter the villa into a nice square hallway. Off the hallway you can access the master bedroom with a walk-in dressing room, an en-suite bathroom, and large French doors with direct access to the pool area. This bedroom is oriented to offer the best light depending on the time of year.

Also from the hallway, there is a room that can be used as a 5th bedroom or as a cosy sitting room/lounge, with a wood burner. It can also be used as an office—especially nowadays with remote working. This room leads out to a small patio, and from there you have another door to the open-plan living area.

From the hallway you can also enter the large open-plan area with a sitting/dining room and kitchen, allowing you to create different spaces and zones to suit your needs. This area leads out to the covered terrace and pool area through numerous French doors. The views from the villa are absolutely fantastic, with panoramic views of the coast and the backdrop of the Mountains of Mijas.

Off the dining area, you have access to three double bedrooms, all en-suite, each with its own access out to a small patio area.

The villa has been built to a very high standard, with double-glazed windows with security glass 6.5 mm, and all patio doors fitted with laminated safety glass on both sides. Each unit has an extra air cavity for maximum insulation, and the window frames are thermally broken.

From the house you can access the downstairs area, where you will find a large garage with two remote-controlled doors. In the basement you also have the walk-in machine room, which controls the whole house and every item at an easy touch, with everything well laid out. There is also an additional basement area that could be used as a gym, cinema, pool room, and more.

There is a driveway with electric black wrought-iron gates from the road directly into the garage.

The villa has plenty of outdoor space and is easy to maintain.

Location: Valtocado, about a 5-minute drive to Mijas Pueblo, where you can drive down to the coast in around 10 minutes to Fuengirola and connect to the motorway to travel to Málaga or Marbella (around 30 minutes either way). From Valtocado you can also head towards Mijas Village and connect with the motorway at Alhaurín.

You can reach the beaches in Fuengirola, La Cala de Mijas, or Cabopino in less than 30 minutes by car.

For golfers, you are close to Alhaurín Golf and not too far from courses such as Lauro Golf, Mijas Golf, La Cala Resort, Santana, and El Chaparral, among others.

Shopping is also convenient, with plenty of boutiques and shops in Mijas Pueblo, or along the coast in La Cala de Mijas, Fuengirola, or Marbella.

Malaga Airport is only about a 30–40 minute drive. This makes the villa ideal to live in all year round, use as a holiday home, or as an investment with rental potential. It can also be a great option for remote working, as fibre optics are excellent in the area.

At present, the house is held in the name of an Irish limited company with a Spanish CIF number. It can also be bought in an individual name, if preferred.
