Compared to the featured projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona, and Alba Benalmadena in Benalmadena, which offer completed homes or apartments starting from €418,800, €320,000, and €699,000 respectively, this building plot in Alhaurín de la Torre occupies a different market segment. The starting price of €248,000 for this 1100 m² plot is primarily aimed at self-builders seeking the flexibility to realize their own design. While the Estepona and Benalmadena projects offer ready-to-move-in solutions in more direct coastal areas, Alhaurín de la Torre provides an inland location focused on nature and tranquility, combined with excellent access to the airport and amenities. The price per square meter for the plot is therefore lower than the price per square meter of a finished property elsewhere, highlighting the potential value for the buyer in their own project development.
