This traditional townhouse, located in the heart of Alora, offers a spacious living experience with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, spread across 362 m². The property is excellently maintained, combining authentic features with contemporary comfort. It is situated in an urban environment with amenities within walking distance, ensuring a practical daily living situation. Priced from €399,000, this property represents substantial living space in a characteristic Andalusian village.
Compared to coastal projects like Acqua Gardens in Estepona (€418,800) or Aby Upper in Estepona (€320,000), this townhouse in Alora offers significantly more living space for its price of €399,000. However, the location differs fundamentally: Alora is inland, while Estepona is directly on the sea. This means the price here is primarily driven by size and authentic village location, rather than the direct coastal access that drives prices in Estepona. Alba Benalmadena, priced at €699,000, is located closer to the coast and likely in a different segment regarding luxury or amenities. This property in Alora is therefore an option for buyers who prioritize space and a traditional village life over direct coastal experience, at a price point that compares favorably to coastal locations with similar indoor space.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Situated in Alora, a typical 'pueblo blanco' in the province of Málaga, this townhouse is located inland. It is embedded within an urban core, meaning local amenities such as shops and pharmacies are found at a short distance. The area is characterized by its proximity to nature and rich history, featuring castle ruins and a location on the Guadalhorce river.
This property suits buyers seeking a spacious, characterful home in a traditional Spanish village. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, it provides ample space for families or for hosting guests.
