Compared to other projects on the Costa del Sol, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950) or Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), this villa in Alhaurín de la Torre is positioned in a higher price bracket, with an asking price of €745,000. This higher price point is justifiable due to its larger living area (300 m²), higher number of bedrooms (6) and bathrooms (4), and its status as a detached villa with its own plot.

The location in Alhaurín de la Torre, while inland, offers a mix of urban amenities and natural surroundings not found directly on the coastline, appealing to a specific buyer who prioritizes stability and accessibility over immediate beach proximity. The existing build quality and finishes of this villa contribute to its higher valuation compared to entry-level apartments.
