Sustainable New Build Homes in El Higueron Costa del Sol

In Fuengirola, a new development of townhouses and semi-detached villas is taking shape in El Higueron, one of the Costa del Sol’s more established residential enclaves. The 40 homes are built using an industrialised construction system that prioritises energy efficiency and acoustic comfort. Each property offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a guest toilet and two private parking spaces, with open views towards the surrounding green hills and the Mediterranean — just 1.1 km away.

The architecture is clean and contemporary, with large windows designed to flood the interiors with natural light. Every home comes with an Energy Rating A, a fully fitted and equipped kitchen, ducted air conditioning, an aerothermal hot water system, LED lighting and a smart home automation system with an integrated alarm. The result is a living environment that stays comfortable year-round while keeping energy use low.

Outside, the communal areas are arranged around wellbeing. There is an infinity swimming pool, a children’s pool, a sauna, spaces for yoga and relaxation, and even urban vegetable gardens. Walking paths weave through landscaped grounds, connecting the development to the natural surroundings.

El Higueron itself is well placed for everyday life. The beach is a short walk or drive away; Fuengirola town centre is 5 km to the south, Benalmádena 6 km to the north. The Higueron Resort and Sports Club is 1 km away, and Torrequebrada Golf is 7 km. Málaga airport is 18 km, the city centre 25 km, and Marbella 30 km — all within easy reach for a weekend drive.

If the idea of a sustainable home in this part of the Costa del Sol appeals, a viewing trip can be arranged to see the development first-hand.
