Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (starting from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (starting from €205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (starting from €259,000), this townhouse in Costabella is positioned in a higher price bracket. The starting price of €720,000 for this property reflects its established location near the beach in a mature urban setting, contrasting with the more recently developed or more remote projects which often carry lower price tags.
