Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona, offered from €320,000 to €418,800 and focused on selling individual apartments, this plot in La Cala de Mijas stands out due to its size and development potential for a larger complex. While Alba Benalmadena, priced from €699,000, also offers apartments, this property in La Cala de Mijas is a building plot that gives developers the flexibility to determine how the space is utilized. The price of €1,400,000 for this 4254 m² plot is justified by its strategic coastal location, urban context with direct access to amenities, and the possibility to realize significant buildable volume. This positions the project differently from pre-built units in nearby towns, primarily targeting the B2B market of project development rather than direct end-user sales of finished homes.

The elevation of 67 meters above sea level and a moderate slope of 5.6% towards the beach provide a solid physical base.
