Regional Comparison

The villa in Algarrobo, with an asking price of €975,000, positions itself in the upper segment of the Costa del Sol market, primarily due to its size (452 m² living area, 7 bedrooms) and large plot (2373 m²). Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000), which typically feature apartments or smaller homes, this offering targets a different buyer demographic. These comparable projects provide entry-level opportunities in the region at significantly lower prices, often focusing on new-build apartments or bungalows in more built-up areas. The Algarrobo villa, conversely, offers privacy, space, and a rural setting, characteristics less common in more compact coastal new developments. The price reflects the exclusivity of a large, detached home with substantial land and views in an established region, setting this villa apart from more common market offerings.
