The buildability and relatively flat terrain simplify the construction process for a new single or multiple residences.

Build Quality & Finishing

The existing situation includes a consolidated urban plot with surrounding perimeter walls. The building regulations (Zone U.4) stipulate a maximum building height of ground floor plus one additional floor, with a buildability of 0.40 m² per m² of plot, equating to approximately 570 m² of usable floor area.

Regional Comparison

This building plot in Arroyo de la Miel is positioned in the mid-range for price per square meter for developable land in the region. Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens in Estepona (from €418,800) and Aby Upper in Estepona (from €320,000), which might focus more on apartments or smaller plots, this plot offers a significantly larger scale for villa development. The price of €660,000 for 1425 m² is competitive, especially considering its urban location and direct access to amenities, which can influence the construction costs and final value of the resulting properties. Alba Benalmádena, with a starting price from €699,000, appears similar in price range but likely represents a different type of project, possibly with pre-planned units.
