Points of Attention

This project does not offer direct access to private gardens or swimming pools, as it is located in a densely populated urban area. The potential for individual modifications of the existing structure may be limited by the historical nature of the building.

Build Quality & Finishing

The building dates from a more historical period and possesses authentic elements such as original tiles, doors, windows, and shutters, which can potentially be preserved and restored. The commercial spaces are already in use, indicating a functional state. However, the residential floors require complete renovation. Potential buyers can therefore customize the finishes of the living spaces entirely to their own vision, with the possibility of integrating modern facilities while preserving the historical charm. The quality of the future finish will depend on the choices made during the renovation period.

Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens (€418,800) and Aby Upper (€320,000) in Estepona, and Alba Benalmadena (€598,000) in Benalmádena, this property positions itself in a higher price bracket, explained by its prime location in the historic center of Málaga city. While the mentioned projects may focus on new construction with specific residential facilities like communal pools, this property offers a unique opportunity in an existing building with direct commercial exploitation possibilities and a historical context. Málaga's urban core offers a different kind of dynamism than the more residential-oriented areas in Estepona or Benalmádena; it is a location rich in history, with an extensive cultural offering, and direct access to a wide range of amenities and transport options. The price of €1,295,000 thus reflects the exclusive location and dual investment potential (commercial and residential) rather than typical new-build amenities.
