This exceptional country estate, located in the heart of Cártama, offers a unique opportunity for peaceful living while maintaining urban proximity. With a generous living area of 524 m² spread across 14 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, this property is ideal for those seeking space, whether for a large family, guest accommodation, or an exclusive business location. The 180,000 m² plot guarantees privacy and ample room, while the immediate surroundings provide all daily amenities within reach. The location combines the best of rural life with the convenience of urban access.
This property in Cártama positions itself differently from the presented comparable projects in Torre del Mar, Mijas, and Estepona. These projects (Aquamar, Lantana Residencial, Etherna Homes 2) have starting prices significantly lower, ranging from €205,000 to €219,950. This suggests that the comparable projects are likely apartments or smaller homes, possibly in new developments with a more standardized offering. The Cártama property, conversely, is an existing Finca - Cortijo with a very large plot size and an exceptional number of bedrooms (14), explaining its higher price of €570,000. The nature of the property (estate versus residential complex) and its scale differ fundamentally. While the comparable projects may target a broader audience seeking modern coastal apartments, the Cártama property appeals to a niche market looking for space, privacy, rural character, and potential for large-scale operation or habitation, in a strategic location that is still relatively well-connected to the airport and coast.
