Strategic Positioning
The property is located in the heart of the Costa del Sol, within the municipality of Mijas, one of the most sought-after destinations by European buyers. Its classification as NUS within a recognized rural nucleus allows for the development of a model of isolated single-family housing with low density, high privacy, and strong landscape integration.
Urban Development Potential and Investment Opportunity
This property represents a unique opportunity for investors looking to position themselves in areas of controlled growth, with landscape value and proximity to consolidated urban areas. Its size, location, and regulatory framework allow for:
• Residential project for single-family housing with energy autonomy
• Tourist development in the natural environment (glamping, equestrian center, eco-resort)
• Agro-residential initiative with added value (cultivation + housing)
• Favorable scenario for future reclassification as developable land, subject to technical initiative and strategic planning.
