This project features a renovated traditional townhouse located in the center of Monda, Málaga. With a living area of 151 m² and four bedrooms, the property offers capacity for multiple residents or families. The location is inland, situated at approximately 378 meters above sea level, providing a different climate experience compared to the immediate coast. Prices start from €290,000.
Compared to projects in coastal towns like Mijas (Arosa from €490,000) or Fuengirola (Astra Homes from €364,000), this project in Monda is financially more accessible with an entry price of €290,000. The price per square meter is lower than on the coast. The main difference lies in the living environment: Monda offers a 'Pueblo' life with traditional architecture and more peace, while coastal projects focus on sea views and tourist dynamics. For buyers prioritizing space and character over direct beach access, this project offers a valuable alternative.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in the 'Setting - Town' district of Monda. Monda is a municipality in the Sierra de las Nieves comarca, near the Sierra Blanca. The village has a population of approximately 2,984 (2025) and is located at a distance of about 44 kilometers from the provincial capital Málaga. The immediate environment is characterized by a village-like, rural setting with wooded hills.
The object is suitable for residents requiring four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The layout includes an open kitchen, dining, and living area with a skylight. There is a basement that serves as a fourth bedroom or office space. Amenities such as a utility room, storage, and guest toilet are present.
This concerns an existing home with a 'Condition - Excellent' status. The property has been renovated, preserving original elements like stone walls and wooden beams. An airflow underfloor heating system has been installed. All legal documentation is in order.
Monda is located inland; the nearest beach (Playa de la Bajadilla) is at a distance of 14 km. For daily amenities on a larger scale, dependence on car transport is necessary. Private parking on the premises is not available; residents rely on street parking.
This project suits individuals looking for a home with character in an authentic Spanish village. The layout with four bedrooms makes it suitable for families or for a combination of living and working (home office). The location requires a preference for a rural, quiet environment over the direct hustle of coastal towns. The presence of a basement and extra sanitary facilities offers flexibility for hosting guests or creating a separate unit.
The home has been renovated while retaining authentic details. Original stonework and wooden beams are visible. Climate control includes air conditioning and an energy-efficient underfloor heating system. The kitchen is open-plan and features a large utility cupboard with original doors. The finish is described as 'Excellent', indicating good maintenance and modern insulation techniques within a historic structure.
The asking price for this townhouse starts from €290,000. Only one unit is available in this specific project. Price variation is not applicable given the distinctive nature of this existing construction.
Monda presents itself as a traditional Andalusian village surrounded by mountainous landscapes. The lifestyle here is focused on tranquility and community. The direct living environment consists of narrow streets and historic buildings. Due to the elevation of 427 meters in the village and the proximity to the Sierra de las Nieves, temperatures are on average lower than on the coast, leading to cooler nights in summer. The presence of primary and secondary schools in the village supports permanent residence.
Daily life in Monda takes place within walking distance of local amenities such as a pharmacy (3.2 km), restaurants, and banks. For larger groceries, a supermarket is located 8.0 km away. Mobility is heavily dependent on the car; Malaga Airport is 30 km away. The location near the Sierra de las Nieves provides access to nature and forests. The infrastructure consists of local road connections towards Coín and Málaga.
The map shows the location of the home in the center of Monda. The distances to the coast (south) and Málaga (east) are clearly visible, as well as the proximity to the mountainous Sierra de las Nieves natural area.
Monda is strategically located between the coast and the hinterland. It lies north of Marbella and west of Coín. In the Sierra de las Nieves region, it takes a central position for living in a rural setting with relatively short distances to the facilities of the Costa del Sol. It is one of the gateways to the natural park.
Beaches such as Playa de la Bajadilla and El Alicate are situated 14 to 15 km away (as the crow flies). Golf courses Campo Europa and Campo América are located 13 km away. A hospital can be found 13 km away. Public transport is limited, making a car essential for connecting to the coast and urban centers. Distances are measured as the crow flies; driving distance may differ due to mountainous terrain.
