Its immediate proximity to essential amenities like a supermarket (60 m) and pharmacy (62 m) defines its urban character, complemented by Málaga Airport's accessibility at 5.6 km.
Compared to other projects on the Costa del Sol, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (starting from €269,950) and Lantana Residencial in Mijas (starting from €205,000), this plot in Alhaurín de la Torre is positioned as a development-focused building plot with a higher entry price.
