Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950) and Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), this building plot in Benalmadena Pueblo is positioned with a higher entry price, starting at €295,000.

Layout

This plot is suitable for developers and individuals seeking to build a custom home. The possibility to construct two single-family homes or one luxury villa offers flexibility.

The indicative 1970 completion date of the existing structure highlights that this is a new development on existing land.
