This charming townhouse, located in the authentic village of Tolox near the Sierra de las Nieves, offers a distinctive opportunity to create a home tailored to your taste. With a living area of 100 m² and 2 bedrooms, the project combines traditional elements with the potential for modernization. Its inland location, at an elevation of 323 meters, promises a tranquil village life while maintaining accessibility to the coast and amenities. The property is in good condition, with improvements already made, including a new bathroom.
Compared to new build developments on the coast, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €239,000), this townhouse in Tolox offers a significantly lower entry price. These coastal projects are typically more modern in design and closer to beach facilities, but lack the authentic village core atmosphere that Tolox embodies. The price of €145,000 for a 100 m² property in Tolox reflects its inland location and the nature of the property as an existing build requiring further finishing. Transactions in the province (44) indicate an active market, though the dynamics in specific village centers like Tolox may differ from popular coastal areas. The local average income of €16,450 in Málaga province suggests that local price levels are relative to international purchasing power, but direct comparison remains with projects offering similar lifestyle characteristics.
