Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona, starting from €418,800 and €320,000 respectively, this villa in Alhaurín de la Torre occupies a different market position. The Estepona projects appear to focus on new constructions with potentially more modern amenities and perhaps a more direct coastal proximity, which could explain their lower starting prices. Alba Benalmadena, conversely, with a starting price of €699,000, indicates a higher market segment, likely featuring more luxurious finishes or an exclusive location. This villa in Alhaurín de la Torre, priced at €580,000, offers a balance: it is not a new build but a spacious, detached home in an established, practical urban environment with good connectivity. The price reflects the combination of its size, 2008 construction, and strategic location relative to both Málaga city and recreational facilities, without the premium associated with some coastal new builds or more exclusive zones.
