Project Analysis

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

Location

Periana is located in La Axarquía, a region known for its agricultural character and proximity to the Sierra de Alhama mountain range. The property is situated in an urban environment, meaning facilities such as a supermarket (328 m) and pharmacy (289 m) are immediately accessible. This offers a self-sufficient living experience without total dependency on a car for daily errands.

Layout

The layout of the villa is exceptionally suitable for families where multi-generational living or rental income is a consideration. The house features two separate entrances and is divided into two self-contained residential levels, each with its own sanitary facilities. This allows the upper and lower floors to be used independently from one another.

Project Status

This concerns existing construction categorized as 'Completed'. The technical condition is good, equipped with modern installations such as air conditioning and solar panels. There is no construction phase or future handover to consider; the property is ready for immediate occupancy.

Points of Attention

Given the elevation at 555 meters above sea level, this project is not suitable for buyers seeking a beach walk from their doorstep. The nearest beaches are located at a straight-line distance of 23 kilometers. Additionally, the North-West orientation influences the sunlight exposure on the terraces in the evening.

Location in the Region

Within the Costa del Sol region, La Axarquía holds a special position due to the mix of coast and mountain. Periana is situated more inland. Compared to projects in Mijas or Fuengirola, this location offers a significantly lower entry price and more living space per euro, but with a greater distance to the sea and international amenities.

Accessibility & Amenities

Málaga Airport is accessible at a distance of 39 kilometers. For beach lovers, the beaches of La Caleta, Almayate, and Valle de Niza are all located at a distance of 23 kilometers. Golf courses such as Club de Golf de Guadalhorce are 39 kilometers away in a straight line. A car is advisable for coastal connections, but local life is manageable on foot.

Summary

  • Spacious villa of 361 m² spread over four levels

Regional Comparison

When comparing this project to real estate in the western Costa del Sol, such as Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) or Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000), the price difference is notable. In Periana, one receives significantly more square meters of living space for a lower investment. However, projects in Mijas and Fuengirola are located in immediate proximity to beaches and international facilities, whereas Periana offers a more rural, authentic Spanish character. For buyers prioritizing space over location, the Axarquía is financially attractive.
