Compared to Acqua Gardens in Estepona (from €418,800) and Aby Upper in Estepona (from €320,000), this apartment in Higuerón, Málaga, has a higher starting price of €469,000. This could be attributed to its larger living area of 190 m² compared to typical Estepona offerings, and its specific location attributes. Alba Benalmádena, with a starting price of €699,000, is significantly more expensive, suggesting a higher-end development or a more premium location within Benalmádena. The proximity to Málaga Airport (13 km) is a notable advantage over Estepona (over 45 km), which can influence pricing in Higuerón. The substantial 98 m² private garden is also a distinguishing feature not commonly found in many coastal apartments, where terraces are often smaller. The inclusion of two parking spaces is a practical addition that increases value, particularly in more urbanized areas like Higuerón.
