This project features a renovated townhouse located in the Punta Lara urbanization, just east of Nerja. With a living area of 98 m² spread across three levels, the residence offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Positioned in a rural setting near the coast, the property is approximately 4 to 4.5 kilometers from the beach. The home includes a communal pool and a private rooftop terrace.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in Punta Lara, a residential district on the eastern side of Nerja. The environment is characterized as quiet and rural, located on hilly terrain. The coastline of the Costa del Sol is approximately 4 kilometers away in a straight line. The setting is residential, featuring a mix of permanent residents and tourists, supported by local amenities such as restaurants and cafes within a 2 km radius.
The layout comprises a main residence across two levels and a separate studio on the ground floor. The main living area includes two spacious bedrooms, one bathroom, a lounge with a balcony, and a fitted kitchen. Additionally, there is a large south-facing roof terrace. The studio on the ground floor features its own kitchen, bathroom, and private entrance, offering flexibility for guests or rental purposes.
This is a resale property in excellent condition. The underbuild has been converted into a self-contained studio, and a roof terrace has been added with amenities including a pergola, barbecue, and utility connections. The property is sold part-furnished and includes air conditioning for climate control.
The location requires a car for daily errands; the nearest supermarket is 4.5 km away and the beach is 4 km away. Parking is available on the street. The distance to Málaga Airport is significant at 63 km. The project is not beachfront or centrally located, meaning residents are dependent on transport for most facilities.
This home fits buyers looking for a second home with more privacy and outdoor space than an apartment. The presence of a self-contained studio makes it suitable for families who wish to house children or parents separately, or for those seeking rental income. The situation in an urbanization with a pool appeals to people who do not want to maintain a pool themselves. For golfers and those looking to escape the crowds, the location in Eastern Nerja is suitable, provided they are comfortable driving.
The home features a modern finish with an open-plan kitchen and bright living room. The bathroom is tiled with a vanity unit. Fitted wardrobes provide storage. A key feature is the south-facing roof terrace equipped with a pergola, dining area, barbecue, and utility connections, extending its usability. The underbuild is functional as a studio with a private bathroom and kitchen. Air conditioning manages the temperature.
The asking price for this home is set at €340,000. This is a fixed price for this specific residence. In the Nerja region, prices for comparable townhouses vary based on the exact location and proximity to the sea. Given the amenities such as the roof terrace and studio, this represents a mid-range price point for the area.
Living in Punta Lara means residing in a quieter, green setting outside the hustle of central Nerja. The neighborhood is nestled against the hills, resulting in elevation changes. Amenities like restaurants and primary schools are available within a 2 km radius, covering basic needs. The proximity to nature, with views of the sea and mountains, defines the living experience. It is a location for those seeking privacy and outdoor space, with the roof terrace serving as a central living area. The coastline is close enough for visits, but the environment feels more rural than cosmopolitan.
The immediate surroundings are characterized by peace and greenery. There are 122 restaurants in the vicinity (within 2 km), indicating a vibrant dining scene despite the rural setting. Several supermarkets and pharmacies are within a short distance (4.5 km and 4.6 km respectively). The Punta Lara area has its own character with a mix of permanent living and holiday rentals. The presence of seven primary schools in the municipality makes it viable for families, though local transport is usually necessary for school runs.
The map shows the location of Punta Lara on the eastern side of Nerja. The green environment and the distance to the coastline are clearly visible. Roads to the coast and the interior are marked.
Nerja is located on the eastern side of the Costa del Sol, in the region of La Axarquía. It is approximately 50 kilometers from Málaga city. This is one of the quieter parts of the Costa, focusing more on natural beauty and tradition than the mass tourism of the western coast. The location at the foot of the Sierra Nevada provides a mountainous backdrop. The distance to major cities like Málaga and Vélez-Málaga implies living here is somewhat more isolated.
Given the rural location, a car is essential. The nearest beaches (Playa de las Alberquillas and Cala del Pino) are at a straight-line distance of about 4 to 4.5 km. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is 63 km away, equating to approximately 45 minutes to an hour's drive. Amenities such as the supermarket (4.5 km) and the hospital (25 km) require transport. Golf courses are located at a distance of over 60 km, making the area less suitable for avid golfers.

Nerja enjoys a typical Mediterranean climate with an average annual temperature of 16.4°C. There are historically 3,934 hours of sunshine per year, ensuring a sunny living climate. The swimming season lasts approximately 4 months (water temperature ≥ 20°C). The elevation at approximately 700 meters above sea level (adjusted for regional project height) provides some cooling in the summer compared to the coastal plain. The south-facing orientation of the roof terrace maximizes sunlight exposure throughout the day.

The coastline around Nerja features several Blue Flag beaches, including Burriana and Playazo. The closest beaches for this project are Playa de las Alberquillas and Cala del Pino. The famous Maro beaches are also nearby. The region is popular for its natural coves and clear waters. For recreation, there are 125 sports facilities in the municipality. Golfers can access facilities at Club de Golf Málaga Parador and Miguel Ángel Jiménez, though this requires a drive of over an hour.

Compared to projects in Mijas and Fuengirola, this project in Nerja offers a distinct price point and atmosphere. While comparable homes in Mijas (Arosa) start from €490,000, the asking price here is significantly lower at €340,000. Similarly, prices in Fuengirola for similar objects, such as Astra Homes, are higher. The reason is the greater distance from the airport and Málaga city center. However, for buyers preferring the eastern coast with its natural beauty and quieter character, Nerja offers value not directly reflected in the price. The cost per square meter is lower here than in the more western resorts, making this project attractive for budget-conscious buyers seeking space and views.
