Compared to coastal projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona, offered from €418,800 and €320,000 respectively, this villa positions itself in a higher segment with a starting price of €825,000. This higher price point is justified by the larger scale of the property (260 m² living space on a 1025 m² plot) and the recent, complete renovation with high-quality finishes and sustainable installations. In comparison to Alba Benalmadena (from €699,000), which is likely closer to the coastline and may offer different amenities, this villa is situated inland in Alhaurín de la Torre. This town offers a more integrated local community and direct access to daily conveniences, differing from the more tourist-oriented areas directly on the coast. The inland location, while slightly further from the beaches (7.1 km as the crow flies), provides a different living environment and potentially more tranquility, while the proximity to the airport is a significant advantage for international buyers. The facilities offered, such as a private swimming pool and large garden, are comparable to what might be expected in this price range on the coast, but the specific urban context of Alhaurín de la Torre distinguishes the project.
