This property, located in Comares, features a semi-detached house with a total area of 112 m² and a plot of 306 m². The home includes four bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it suitable for families or as a spacious vacation residence. Situated at 724 meters above sea level, the property offers panoramic views of the surroundings. Prices start from €170,000. The home includes open parking, a private garden, and various outdoor spaces, including a covered rooftop terrace.
Compared to coastal projects like Acqua Gardens in Estepona (from €418,800) or Alba Benalmadena (from €699,000), this project in Comares offers a significantly lower entry price (€170,000). While coastal prices often reflect sea views and beach proximity, Comares offers value in terms of space, tranquility, and authenticity. The price per m² is attractive, though one must consider a different lifestyle (more rural than tourist-focused).
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in the center of Comares, within walking distance of local amenities such as a pharmacy and a supermarket. The setting is urban but retains a rural character due to the surrounding vegetation. Because of the elevation, the area is quieter than coastal towns.
With four bedrooms and a living area of 112 m², this home provides ample space for permanent living or extended stays. The presence of a private plot with fruit trees supports a lifestyle focused on outdoor living and self-sufficiency.
This is an existing home described as being in 'Good' condition. Finishes include a partially fitted kitchen and a fireplace in the living room. There is no construction phase or handover date applicable.
The home does not feature standard air conditioning, a swimming pool, or a closed garage. The elevation at 724 meters means that winter temperatures can be lower than on the coast. Access to the home is via inland roads which can be winding.
This project fits well with buyers seeking an authentic Spanish lifestyle away from tourist crowds. The spacious layout makes it suitable for families needing more room, or for those working from home requiring a separate office space. It also appeals to gardening enthusiasts, with the plot size and fruit trees offering various possibilities. It is less suitable for those prioritizing mobility and quick access to beaches and nightlife, as these are approximately 15 kilometers away.
The home features functional finishes with a focus on outdoor living. The kitchen is partially fitted, and the living room includes a fireplace for cooler evenings. Outdoors, there are multiple terraces, including a covered rooftop terrace and a barbecue area. The garden contains fruit trees, and a separate outbuilding provides potential for a guest room or workshop. The construction is traditional, fitting the regional style.
The asking price for this home starts from €170,000. Given the plot size of 306 m² and four bedrooms, the price per m² is significantly lower than comparable properties on the coast. The home is available for immediate occupancy or renovation to personal taste.
Living in Comares means residing in one of the highest 'Pueblos Blancos' in the Axarquía region. The daily rhythm is defined by the tranquility and community spirit of a small village. Since all essential amenities like the bakery, pharmacy, and restaurants are within walking distance, a car is not strictly necessary for daily errands. Evenings are often spent at one of the three nearby miradors (viewpoints), located less than 100 meters away. The mountain views are dominant, while the sea is visible only from a distance. The cool nights at this altitude ensure a good night's sleep, a contrast to the coastal summers.
The environment offers 3,894 hours of sunshine per year, resulting in a pleasant climate for most of the year. Average temperatures range between 15°C and 28°C. Due to the altitude, humidity is generally lower than at sea level. For recreation, there are various sports facilities in the immediate vicinity. The proximity of three miradors invites walking and enjoying views of the mountains and valley.
The map shows the location of the home in Comares. The blue lines indicate distances to the coast (approx. 15 km) and the airport (29 km). Zooming in reveals the surrounding miradors and the steepness of the terrain around the village.
Comares is located in the Axarquía region, in the foothills of the Montes de Málaga. It is one of the highest towns in the province. This positioning offers a panoramic view of the surrounding valleys and the sea. It is a quiet alternative to the busy coastal towns but is part of the larger economic region of Málaga.
Comares village offers basic amenities within walking distance, including a pharmacy (81 m) and a supermarket (27 m). For extensive shopping and medical care, one depends on Vélez-Málaga or the city of Málaga. The nearest beaches (Playa Victoria, Playa Los Rubios) are 15 km away as the crow flies, which translates to about a 25-30 minute drive. Málaga Airport is accessible at a distance of 29 km.

The climate in Comares is characterized by hot summers and mild winters, although winters are significantly cooler than on the coast due to the elevation of 724 meters. This creates a distinct seasonal feel. The mountain position provides protection from the hottest inland winds. The swimming season in the nearby sea lasts approximately 4 months.
