This project, located in the center of Cómpeta, consists of a four-story building with a total area of 223 m². The property is situated in an urban environment at 646 meters altitude, featuring a southern orientation. The object is offered for sale as a 'Restoration Required' project. The inner city of Cómpeta provides basic amenities such as supermarkets and pharmacies within walking distance.
Compared to coastal projects like Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000) or Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000), the entry price in Cómpeta is significantly lower. This is caused by the 'Restoration Required' status and the inland location. Buyers must factor in significant renovation costs, meaning the final price can rise considerably. While the price per square meter seems favorable, it lacks the communal facilities (pool, gardens) that are often included in coastal projects like Waterfall Residences (from €720,000). The location offers no direct beach access, a crucial difference from coastal locations.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is situated in the center of Cómpeta, part of the Axarquía region. At an altitude of 646 meters above sea level, the location offers views of the surrounding mountain landscape. The location is inland, at a distance of 49 kilometers (as the crow flies) to Málaga International Airport.
The building spans 223 m² over four floors. The layout includes five bedrooms and two bathrooms. Due to the 'Restoration Required' status, the property requires a complete refurbishment before habitation. The southern orientation provides potential for natural light on the upper floors.
This is not a new build project. It is an existing property currently not habitable and in need of renovation. There is no handover date for a finished product; the timeline for renovation depends on contractors and permits.
The project does not offer amenities such as a swimming pool, communal gardens, or an elevator. The state of finishing is currently in a construction phase where renovation is necessary. For beach visits, car transport is required; the coastline is approximately 10 kilometers away.
This project suits buyers looking for a 'project' and willing to invest in renovation. The layout with five bedrooms and the possibility of a business space on the ground floor makes it suitable for (semi)permanent living or hospitality exploitation. The location requires a preference for urban vibrancy over resort tranquility.
The dwelling is sold in its current state. Existing photos show elements such as an old dining room, bare walls, and an outdated bathroom. Renovation includes restoring masonry, installations (electricity, plumbing), and finishing (floors, kitchen, sanitary ware). There is no information on the structural condition of foundations or the roof.
The asking price starts from €124,000. This amount refers to the purchase price of the building plot including the existing masonry structure, excluding renovation costs. There is a single unique dwelling (inventory), so price changes or variations in types are not applicable.
Cómpeta is a 'pueblo blanco' (white village) known for its Moorish street pattern and vibrant community. The location on the southern slopes of the Sierra de Almijara results in a landscape of steep slopes and terracing. With 3,909 hours of sunshine per year and an average annual temperature of 16.4°C, the climate is characteristic of the interior: hotter than the coast in summer and cooler in winter.
The property is located directly in the residential area. A supermarket is located 133 meters away, a pharmacy at 58 meters. There are 16 restaurants and four pharmacies within a 2-kilometer radius. The sports center (Polideportivo Municipal) is 400 meters away. Daily groceries are therefore within walking distance.
The map shows the location in the center of Cómpeta. Distances to amenities such as supermarket and pharmacy are very short (< 150m). The topography is steeply mountainous.
Cómpeta is located in the Axarquía, east of Málaga city. It is situated inland, separated from the coast by the A-7 highway and mountain passes. The positioning is central in the mountain area, which implies a longer commute for people working in Málaga city (52 kilometers) or on the coast.
Accessibility by car is standard for Axarquía. The coast (Playa del Morche) is 10 kilometers away as the crow flies, the airport 49 kilometers. For golf, one must count on a distance of approximately 48 to 51 kilometers (Club de Golf Málaga Parador). There is one public transport line in the immediate vicinity.

At 646 meters altitude, the average temperature is 16.4°C, with peaks in summer. The location at the foot of La Maroma (Sierra de Almijara) provides protection and determines the local microclimate. The swimming season at the coast lasts 4 months, but in Cómpeta itself, the swimming season is shorter due to the distance to the sea.
