Compared to recent developments like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000), this villa is positioned in a higher price bracket. This is justified by its larger plot size, existing structure with recent renovations, and specific location in Alhaurín de la Torre. These other projects typically offer new-build apartments or bungalows with smaller private areas, catering to a different market segment. In contrast, the Alhaurín de la Torre villa provides a greater degree of privacy and space, including a self-contained guest house and office, features less common in the aforementioned new-build projects. The asking price of €799,000 for this villa can be seen as a reflection of the combination of space, renovation quality, and its strategic yet tranquil location near Málaga city and the airport, attracting a different buyer profile than those primarily focused on the immediate coastline or more compact dwellings.
