Regional Comparison

The asking price of €950,000 for this detached villa in Benalmádena positions it at the higher end of the local market, comparable to Casatalaya which is offered from €900,000. Projects like Astrid (from €753,800) and Stella 8 (from €680,000) present lower entry prices, potentially indicating smaller sizes, fewer bedrooms, or different locations within Benalmádena. This villa distinguishes itself with its 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, as well as a 585 m² plot featuring a private pool and extensive outdoor amenities like a garden house with a jacuzzi. Its location in an urban area with direct access to services, coupled with the short distance to the beach (229m), is a strong selling point not found in all comparable properties. While the villa dates back to 1985, its good condition and full furnishings suggest immediate enjoyment without the need for extensive renovations that might be required for newer, possibly smaller or less equipped, projects.
