6 Bedroom House / Villa For Sale In Pinares De San Antón El Candado

Detached villa located in the El Candado development , in East Málaga, on a 1092 m² plot with 443 m² of living space distributed over two floors. This property boasts a solid structural foundation—having passed the Building Technical Inspection (ITE) in 2025—and a pending comprehensive renovation project. This allows the new owner to design the house according to their own needs and tastes, starting from a plot and layout that are somewhat unusual in the current market. The property also has a valid tourist license, a requirement not always available in this type of development, which opens the door to operating it as a holiday rental business once renovated, in addition to its use as a family-friendly property .

Exteriors

The plot completely surrounds the property and is organized into distinct areas: a private pool area, a barbecue area, and a garden, all designed for year-round social and family-friendly use thanks to Málaga’s climate. The upper- floor terrace, with its sea views, is one of the property’s most valuable features. El Candado is a gated development , established in the early 1960s as one of the first residential projects of its kind in Málaga, conceived from the outset around its own social and sports club, golf course , and marina. This commitment to a private, wooded community is maintained today, with 24-hour private security and a remarkably tranquil environment, a rarity just minutes from the centre of Málaga.

Inside

The property is laid out over two floors: on the main floor , a spacious lobby leads to two living rooms—one with a fireplace and direct access to the garden, allowing for a seamless connection between the interior and the pool area—a dining room room, a separate kitchen with a pantry and access to the garden, a bedroom with an en- floor bathroom (ideal as a study or guest room), and a guest toilet. The upper floor houses the night area, with the main bedroom suite, two complete bathrooms serving the other four bedrooms on this floor , and a terrace with sea views. The garage, with space for several vehicles, also offers storage and a multipurpose area that could be used as a gym, games room , or utility room. As the property is in need of renovation, this current layout serves as the starting point for designing a contemporary home, with the connection between interior and exterior and the abundance of natural light as the design principles.

Quality

The property retains its original structure and layout , and is in good condition after passing the ITE (Technical Building Inspection) in 2025. The pending comprehensive renovation is an opportunity to incorporate materials, home automation, air conditioning, underfloor heating or aerothermics according to the criteria of the new owner.

Lifestyle

Living in El Candado means being part of a well-established private community with over sixty years of history, where golf, sailing, and social life revolve around its own club, and where privacy and security coexist with proximity to the sea and the city. It’s a relaxed lifestyle, very family-oriented and focused on the outdoors, in an enclave that many residents of Málaga recognize as one of the most unique on the city’s eastern coast.

Who might be interested in this property

This property may be of particular interest to investors looking to develop it as a holiday rental business, thanks to the existing tourist license—which avoids the time and uncertainty of obtaining one from scratch; to buyers seeking a renovation project on a plot and in a location that are hard to find on the market today; to families who value security, golf, and social club life as part of their daily routine; to sailing and boating enthusiasts, due to its proximity to the El Candado marina; and to buyers looking for a permanent or long-term residence, with international schools and the historic centre of Malaga just minutes away.
