This project stands out in Fuengirola due to its size and redevelopment potential, distinguishing it from new build projects like Horizon36, Terra Homes Fuengirola, and Carat, which have starting prices between €770,000 and €822,000. These comparable projects typically offer new apartments with standard layouts and finishes, intended for immediate occupancy. The current property, however, an existing commercial space of 319 m² with a substantial terrace, is priced higher at €1,050,000, explained by the distinctive opportunity for transformation and its specific location. While new developments often provide standardized apartments, this property offers the flexibility to create a customized living concept, potentially with multiple units. Its proximity to the beach and central amenities is comparable to many projects in Fuengirola, but the scale of the space and terrace is exceptional for a downtown location. The focus here is not on ready-to-move-in new construction, but on an investment opportunity with significant value creation potential.
