Compared to properties on the immediate coastline, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €219,950) or Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), this villa in Tolox offers a significantly larger plot and more privacy, albeit located inland. The price of €349,000 reflects the size of the land and the exclusivity of the location, contrasting with more concentrated residential developments like Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000) which are often closer to amenities and the sea. While coastal projects focus on direct access to beaches and vibrant communities, this property attracts buyers who prefer peace, space, and a natural environment, with the amenities of the Costa del Sol within reach but not immediately adjacent. The larger land area here distinguishes it from typical coastal apartments or townhouses, positioning it as a rural retreat.
