Compared to projects closer to the coast, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (€269,950) or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (€269,000), this semi-detached house in Ojén is positioned in a higher price bracket at €1,350,000. This higher price point is justified by its larger living area (236 m² compared to typically around 150-200 m² in the mentioned projects), a more substantial plot (585 m²), a greater number of bedrooms (5 vs. 3-4), and specific features like panoramic sea views and recent, complete renovation. Lantana Residencial in Mijas (€205,000) also falls into a lower price category, typical for properties with less space and fewer luxury finishes. Ojén's location, inland yet well-connected to Marbella and the coast, offers an alternative to direct coastal living. The price reflects the combination of space, finish, views, and its quieter yet well-accessed location compared to busier coastal zones.
