Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Las Mesas Blue Horizon (from €849,000), Mirador de Estepona Hills (from €847,000), and Haiku Residences (from €962,000), this detached villa, priced at €1,200,000, is positioned in the higher price segment. This price difference can be attributed to the villa's specific attributes: its location on the second beach line, the existing structure with potential for significant value increase post-renovation, and its private plot with a swimming pool and parking area. The competition in Estepona includes both new-build apartments and existing properties. While the comparable projects likely offer more modern amenities and a higher finish upon completion, this villa provides an opportunity for a buyer to transform an existing property according to their vision. The focus on a detached villa with its own plot, rather than apartments, distinguishes this offering. The urban environment with direct access to amenities and the beach remains a constant factor in Estepona's appeal, justifying the pricing in this particular segment.
