Alhaurín el Grande offers an alternative to the direct coastal locations of the Costa del Sol, such as Estepona and Benalmádena. While projects like Acqua Gardens in Estepona start from €418,800 and Aby Upper from €320,000, this penthouse in Alhaurín el Grande, priced at €349,000, sits in a comparable price bracket to Aby Upper but offers the potential for a more authentic Spanish lifestyle, away from the immediate coastal bustle.
