This 320 m² building plot is located just outside the village center of Canillas de Aceituno, bordering the natural park. It offers views towards the village entrance, the football field, and the distant valley behind Vélez-Málaga, with sights of Comares and La Viñuela. Situated at the foot of the 'La Maroma' mountains, it provides a rural ambiance. The plot allows for the construction of a house with two to three floors and a private pool.
Compared to coastal projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €219,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000), this plot in Canillas de Aceituno offers a significantly lower entry price. These coastal developments, with their direct access to beaches and urban amenities, represent a different market segment. Canillas de Aceituno is located inland, resulting in a quieter, more rural environment and a different pricing structure. The lower plot price of €60,000 makes it attractive to buyers willing to invest in building their own home and who appreciate the benefits of an authentic Andalusian setting. It serves as an alternative to the more developed coastal areas, catering to a specific lifestyle.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The plot is situated in a quiet, rural environment at the foot of the 'La Maroma' mountains. The village center and the natural park are within walking distance. Its south-west orientation contributes to a pleasant indoor climate.
This plot offers the opportunity to build a custom home, including the option for a private swimming pool. The plot size allows for a house with two to three levels, tailored to individual living requirements.

Individuals seeking a second home with customization potential, including the option for a private pool, will find it here. It also presents an option for investors looking to develop land in a region with tourist potential. The inland location, with mountain and valley views, is attractive to nature lovers and hikers. It requires a proactive approach to initiate and manage the construction process.
As this is a building plot, no information is provided regarding existing finishes or build quality. The construction of a new home is yet to take place. The buyer is responsible for selecting architects and contractors and ensuring build quality complies with applicable building codes. The south-west orientation of the plot offers potential for a home with abundant natural light. Specific details on materials or techniques are not available as construction has not yet begun.
The asking price for this building plot is €60,000. This price is for the plot itself, excluding the costs associated with building a home. The 320 m² area provides scope for various construction plans. The pricing is competitive for building land in this rural yet strategically located area of Andalusia. Currently, one plot is available. Potential buyers should factor in additional costs for architects, building permits, and the final construction.
