This detached villa in Frigiliana, Málaga, offers a unique opportunity for those seeking space and tranquility in a rural setting. With a living area of 383 m² on a generous 2962 m² plot, this property guarantees privacy and a sense of spaciousness. The villa is situated in an urban environment with amenities within walking distance, while simultaneously offering a countryside ambiance. Featuring 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, there is ample space for family life or hosting guests.
Compared to other projects on the Costa del Sol, such as Acqua Gardens (€418,800) and Aby Upper (€320,000) in Estepona, this detached villa is positioned in a higher price bracket, with an asking price of €960,000. This higher segment is justified by its larger plot size, rural setting, and the potentially more exclusive atmosphere Frigiliana offers compared to more central coastal locations like Estepona or Benalmádena (Alba Benalmádena, €699,000). While the mentioned projects in Estepona might be closer to the coast or amenities of larger resorts, this project focuses on a more authentic, tranquil Andalusian lifestyle, with the benefits of a village within walking distance. Frigiliana's proximity to the mountains and its less tourist-centric character, compared to the immediate coastline, can be appealing to buyers who prioritize peace and space over direct beach access. The 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms offer substantial living space, comparable to larger villas, but the price also reflects the extent of the plot and the privacy it affords. Its inland location, yet only 5.2 km from the coast, provides a good balance between tranquility and proximity to the Mediterranean Sea and the facilities of Nerja.
