Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Located in an urbanized area within Coín, this plot benefits from essential services within walking distance. Its inland position offers a different perspective on the Costa del Sol, away from the immediate coastal bustle, while maintaining good connections to Málaga and Marbella.
This plot is suitable for developers or individuals with a construction plan for a detached house. The permission to build a villa of up to 300 m², spread over two floors, provides flexibility for designing a home that meets specific living requirements, including space for a private swimming pool.
This is an urban building plot, certified for the construction of a single-family home. Essential infrastructure such as water, electricity, and sewage systems are present, facilitating the start of construction. Planning permission for a two-storey villa has already been granted, paving the way for realization.
This is a building plot; there is no existing dwelling on the site. The plot size and building regulations determine the maximum dimensions of the house that can be built. The plot is not directly on the beach and a car is recommended for optimal use of the wider region.
This building plot is ideal for buyers who dream of a custom-built villa in an authentic Spanish town, with all amenities close at hand. It is an attractive option for families seeking a permanent residence, thanks to the proximity of schools and healthcare facilities. Investors may see the potential to build a property that meets the demand for rental properties in a popular region. Individuals who enjoy an active lifestyle but wish to avoid the coastal crowds will find this an ideal base. The ability to design the house and garden, including space for a swimming pool, appeals to those with specific living environment preferences, benefiting from a southeast orientation for ample natural light.
As a building plot, specific details about the finishing of a house are not yet applicable. The plot itself is certified as urban land, providing the foundation for constructing a single-family home up to two storeys. Essential utilities such as water and electricity are already connected to the plot, and there is a connection to the sewage system. Access to the plot is via a paved street, simplifying construction logistics. The surrounding area is equipped with street lighting and pavements, contributing to the urban infrastructure. The potential for building a villa with a private swimming pool is suggested by the location.
The building plot in Coín is available from €130,000. This is a 'from' price, meaning final costs may depend on specific plot characteristics if multiple plots are available. The pricing reflects its location in a developing urban environment with the capacity to build a substantial home. Compared to the prices of finished properties in the area, this plot presents an investment opportunity to create a home to one's own specifications. The price is competitive for an urban plot with building permission in this region of the Costa del Sol.

This building plot in Coín distinguishes itself from projects on the immediate coastline, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €219,950) and Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), through its inland location and lower starting price. While projects like Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000) focus on luxury coastal residences, this plot in Coín offers an opportunity to build in a more traditional Spanish setting. The price of €130,000 for an urban plot with building permission in the province of Málaga is competitive, especially considering its proximity to amenities and the airport. The focus here is on creating a bespoke home, offering more flexibility than purchasing an already built property, and it can be an attractive option for those seeking a specific lifestyle away from the immediate coastal crowds, while maintaining good accessibility.
