Lap up a dreamy Andalusian getaway with this luxurious townhouse as your base. With the sparkling seascape only a short walk from here, you'll have the town of La Cala de Mijas and its natural scenery at your fingertips. Fringed with swaying palm trees and overlooking Mediterranean Sea views, the home features a serene rooftop terrace with a private plunge pool, sun lounging area and outdoor lounge space – perfect for sipping a cold beer afternoon spent on the beach. Meanwhile, the leafy balcony terrace extends the main living and dining room outside, where you can find an alfresco dining setting alongside some exotic plants – making tucking to your breakfast each morning all the more delightful. Dressed in soft neutral hues, contemporary fittings and minimal interiors – the home is just as soothing inside – as it is outside. Take refuge from the Spanish sun on the corner couch or in the blissful privacy of the secluded bedrooms when in need of some downtime. Here, you'll find nothing but chilled-out vibes and a laid-back living setup you'll want to take home with you. Since the townhouse is located on an exclusive development, it shares three on-site communal swimming pools... with other complex residents. So when you fancy swimming a little further than your private rooftop plunge pool will take you, shimmy on down to the residential pools and gardens to do some lengths. Just 750 meters from the city centre of La Cala de Mijas, you'll be within convenient walking distance from the coastal town's glistening sandy beach stretches, waterfront bars and restaurants, as well as an array of beachside boutiques.
