Regional Comparison

Compared to new developments like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (starting from €269,950) or Lantana Residencial in Mijas (starting from €205,000), this detached villa in Alhaurín de la Torre at €895,000 represents a different market segment. These comparable projects are typically apartments or smaller townhouses in newer constructions, often located closer to the coast and priced for entry-level or mid-range buyers. This villa, being a substantial, established family home on a large plot, is positioned for buyers seeking more space, privacy, and a mature garden environment. While new developments often offer modern designs and direct access to amenities, this existing property provides a more traditional villa lifestyle, complete with a private pool and established grounds. Its inland location, though offering potential for greater tranquility and value per square meter of land, means it is not directly comparable to beachfront properties. The price reflects its size, plot, existing features, and its location within a well-established residential town close to Málaga.
