Regional Comparison

Compared to other coastal projects on the Costa del Sol, such as Acqua Gardens in Estepona (from €418,800) or Aby Upper in Estepona (from €320,000), this property positions itself in a higher price bracket, partly explained by the size of the house and plot, as well as the 'Finca - Cortijo' type with its associated architectural style and space. Alba Benalmadena (from €699,000) is closer in price, but the property in La Cala de Mijas offers considerably more living space (492 m²) on a larger plot (1500 m²) than the indicated price points suggest. The specific location in La Cala de Mijas, an area known for its blend of walkability and authentic coastal atmosphere, distinguishes it from more sprawling developments in Estepona or the denser constructions in Benalmadena. The proximity to both beach and golf courses is a common feature for many Costa del Sol projects, but the specific combination of a spacious, existing 'Finca - Cortijo' with such a central coastal location is less common.
