This detached villa in Monda, located in the province of Málaga, offers a rural living concept with proximity to urban amenities. With a plot of nearly 10,000 m² and a living area of 110 m², the project combines space and tranquility with a strategic location relative to the coast and the airport. The villa is designed for those seeking an authentic Spanish lifestyle, surrounded by nature, yet with easy access to the facilities of the Costa del Sol.
Compared to projects directly on the coast, such as Acqua Gardens or Aby Upper in Estepona, priced from €418,800 and €320,000 respectively, this villa in Monda offers a significantly larger plot for €510,000. These coastal projects are closer to the beach and urban amenities, explaining their higher density and price per square meter. Alba Benalmadena, with a starting price of €699,000, is positioned in a higher price bracket, likely due to a more exclusive location or more extensive facilities. The villa in Monda stands out for its rural setting, plot size, and the privacy it offers, making it attractive to buyers who prefer peace and space over direct coastal proximity. The greater distance to the coast (approx. 14 km as the crow flies) and the necessity of a car for daily commutes are characteristics that influence its pricing compared to coastal properties.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa is situated inland in a quiet, rural environment near Monda, a traditional Andalusian village. Its location offers a contrast to the busier coastal areas, while essential amenities like a pharmacy are just 3.2 km away and a supermarket is 8 km distant. The proximity to the Sierra Blanca and Sierra de las Nieves natural parks contributes to the serene ambiance.
This property is aimed at buyers who appreciate a spacious, private home with significant outdoor space. The 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom are suitable for families or for those who wish to host guests. The large plot of almost 1 hectare offers possibilities for gardening, outdoor activities, or creating a personal oasis away from daily life.
This is an existing construction, a detached villa, ready for occupancy. There is no new construction involved with associated building phases and delivery dates. The focus is on the current condition and the opportunities that the existing structure and plot offer to the new owner.
The location necessitates a car for daily commutes and access to broader amenities, as public transport is limited in this rural setting. The distance to the coast and larger towns means that daily shopping and accessing services require some planning. The swimming season is limited to three months.
This villa suits individuals seeking the authentic Andalusian lifestyle, away from the coastal bustle but within reasonable reach of amenities. It is a suitable choice for families or individuals who value space, privacy, and nature. Those who enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, or horse riding will appreciate the location near the natural parks. It also offers a solid foundation for people looking for a peaceful place to live or a holiday home with outdoor potential. The necessity of a car is a given for this type of location, meaning the buyer must take this into account. The three-month swimming season and the average annual temperature of 12.6°C suggest a place where outdoor living is largely dependent on the seasons.
The villa features a living area of 110 m², comprising a spacious living room, a fully equipped kitchen, three bedrooms, and a shared bathroom. The existing description mentions a private swimming pool and a covered porch, elements that enhance outdoor living. The finishes and materials are not described in detail, but the presence of an outdoor 'half bathroom' suggests a focus on functionality for the outdoor space. The photos show a traditional interior, with a bedroom featuring wooden accents and an overall decor fitting a rural setting. Further specifications on materials used, insulation, or installations are unavailable, limiting a quality assessment to visual impressions and the functional spaces mentioned.
The asking price for this detached villa is €510,000. This price is based on current market value and includes the 110 m² living area and a generous 9970 m² plot. Given the property type (villa with a large plot) and its inland location near Monda, this price point positions it in the mid-range for comparable properties in the area. Details regarding price variations or other available units are not provided, suggesting this is an individual sale.
