Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar, Lantana Residencial in Mijas, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona, which are located closer to the coast and are offered as residential complexes with prices ranging from €205,000 to €259,000, this plot in Tolox stands out as a unique option for those seeking land and space in a natural setting. These coastal projects typically offer more direct access to amenities and the beach but lack the tranquility and expanse that rural Tolox provides. The price point of €65,000 for 16,063 m² of land in Tolox is significantly lower per square meter than the apartments or houses in the mentioned coastal projects, indicating a different market and buyer profile. While the coastal projects focus on an immediate living or holiday experience with facilities, this plot offers a more project-oriented approach with potential for self-development in the interior of the Costa del Sol.
