This property presents two development plots (Sector SUS-CA.20) in Santa Rosalía, Málaga, totaling 5,509 m². Located inland within an urban environment undergoing development near the Technology Park of Andalusia, the land is zoned for free residential use with low density, suitable for detached family homes. Active utilities include water, electricity, and sewage. The site features an existing water well, irrigation rights, and two dwellings (100 m² and 37 m²), offering immediate utility or renovation potential. Essential amenities like a pharmacy and supermarket are within a 250-meter radius, and Málaga Airport is just 8.5 km away.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The site is situated in Santa Rosalía, a residential district within the municipality of Málaga. The position is inland, characterized by its proximity to the Technology Park of Andalusia. It is an urban setting with a high level of self-sufficiency for daily needs, including a pharmacy and supermarkets within a 250-meter range. The historic center of Málaga is accessible by car in approximately 20 minutes.
With a surface area exceeding 5,500 m², this project facilitates the creation of a residence with extensive garden and outdoor spaces. The existing structures, 100 m² and 37 m², can serve as temporary accommodation during construction phases or be renovated. The presence of a private water well and fruit trees supports an outdoor lifestyle and agricultural use.
The plots are classified as sectorized developable land for free residential use. Construction of detached homes is permitted under current urban planning regulations. The plots are not affected by general or local public systems, allowing for agile development. Existing buildings are habitable, and utility connections (water, electricity, sewage) are active.
The location is not beachfront; the nearest beach (Playa de la Misericordia) is 12 km away. While the area is urban, it is part of a developing sector (SUS-CA.20), implying ongoing changes in the immediate surroundings. High-level amenities depend on the city center. There are no communal facilities such as a pool or gym.

This project fits investors targeting development in a high-growth projection area. The combination of land acquisition and existing, habitable structures allows for a phased approach. It also suits individuals seeking a 'finca' lifestyle close to the city. The size of the plot requires commitment to maintenance. Its proximity to the Technology Park appeals to professionals connected to Málaga's tech sector.
Existing structures are traditional builds. House 1 (100 m²) has 2 bedrooms, living room, kitchen, and 2 bathrooms. House 2 (37 m²) has a living room, bedroom, and bathroom. Finishes are functional and may require modernization. Utilities are connected and operational.
The asking price for the combined plots is €1,490,000. This fixed price covers the total 5,509 m² land area and existing buildings. No additional urbanization charges apply directly to the plot boundaries. Costs for new construction and permits are separate.
Santa Rosalía acts as a transition zone between the urban center of Málaga and the northern rural landscapes. Situated at the foothills of the Montes de Málaga, the area offers a mix of permanent residency and development. The nearby Technology Park adds a dynamic professional character. The region enjoys a high number of sunshine hours (3,871) and a swimming season of 5 months. The presence of 32 local holidays per year indicates a community with strong traditional roots.
Santa Rosalía offers essential amenities within a short distance. A pharmacy and supermarket (105 m) ensure daily needs are met. For extensive shopping, the city center is required. The infrastructure provides good connections to the A-7 and N-340. The location offers less traffic pressure than the center while maintaining accessibility. Public transport is available with 10 bus lines and 50 stops nearby.

Compared to coastal projects in Mijas or Fuengirola, Santa Rosalía offers a rural character at a lower price per square meter for land, though the initial investment is higher than buying an apartment. Projects like 'Arosa' offer turnkey apartments from €490,000. Santa Rosalía requires a €1.49m upfront investment, appealing to buyers wanting a unique, estate-sized property with privacy unavailable in standard coastal apartments. The location is closer to Málaga city center and the airport than most Fuengirola projects.
