Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (€269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (€205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (€259,000), this villa in La Mairena positions itself in a significantly higher market segment. These comparable projects offer apartments or smaller homes with prices that are a fraction of the €7,975,000 asking price for the La Mairena villa. The villa stands out due to its plot size (nearly 5 hectares versus typically smaller plots or no plot for apartments), its exclusive hilltop location with panoramic views, and the scale of the residence (1254 m² of living space with 7 bedrooms).
