Discover this restored Finca Cortijo in the picturesque Montes de Málaga, an exclusive estate blending authenticity with modern comfort. Situated on over 11 hectares of private land adjacent to the Montes de Málaga Natural Park, this property offers unparalleled privacy and spectacular mountain views. Just 25 minutes from the dynamic city of Málaga and the coast, it presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy tranquility and nature without compromising on accessibility.
This project in Montes de Málaga represents a unique niche within the Costa del Sol real estate market. Compared to apartments and villas in coastal towns like Estepona (e.g., Acqua Gardens from €418,800, Aby Upper from €320,000) or Benalmádena (e.g., Alba Benalmadena from €699,000), this estate offers significantly more land and privacy, reflected in its €975,000 price tag. The focus here is less on direct beach access and more on a rural, nature-rich lifestyle with panoramic views. While coastal projects often target a broader audience of holidaymakers and apartment investors, this type of finca appeals more to buyers seeking exclusivity, space, and an authentic Andalusian experience. Its location, inland yet well-connected to Málaga, sets it apart from projects deeper in the countryside or directly on busier coastal strips. It offers an alternative for those who prefer peace and nature over the liveliness of beach resorts, while still benefiting from proximity to an international airport and urban amenities.
