Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000), the villa in El Faro is positioned in a higher price bracket, starting from €549,000. This higher price point is justified by its prime coastal location, the recent full renovation using premium materials, and specific features such as the private terrace and accessibility for the disabled. While the comparable projects may involve new-build apartments or townhouses in less central locations, the El Faro villa offers an existing, yet modernized, detached home focused on privacy and direct access to the coast and urban amenities. The larger living area and the finishes of this villa contribute to its higher pricing relative to the starting prices of the other projects.
