This plot, situated in the rural Valtocado area of Málaga, spans 10,565 m². The location is positioned at approximately 372 meters above sea level, providing a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains and natural landscape. The land is undeveloped and characterized by its rustic nature, with direct access from the prestigious Valtocado urbanization via dirt lanes. Due to its dimensions, the plot is suitable for specific agricultural or utility purposes, such as constructing a storage unit or animal shelter, subject to obtaining the relevant permits.
Compared to projects like Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) and Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000), this plot is an entry-level option focused solely on land value. While surrounding projects offer fully equipped homes and communal facilities, this terrain offers the freedom of development but requires significant investment in infrastructure, construction, and utilities. The price per square meter is significantly lower than in developed residential projects.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The plot is located inland in the Málaga region, specifically in the area known as Valtocado. This is a rural zone situated on a hillside, offering distance from the direct bustle of the coastal strip. The surroundings are defined by terrain and greenery, with nearby viewpoints such as Mirador de Cañada Morena located 2.4 km away.
Due to the absence of residential connections and facilities on the site itself, this plot does not meet immediate living requirements for habitation. For potential buyers seeking a construction site for a residential project with specific agricultural parameters, this terrain offers the space and isolation typically desired.
The status of the plot is 'ready', implying the land is available for development in accordance with current regulations. There are no existing structures on the property. The listing notes that the plot meets the minimum surface area requirement of 10,000 m² required to obtain a license for a tool house or animal stable.
The plot offers no direct residential amenities, utilities, or street lighting. The access road consists of dirt lanes, meaning there is no paved public road directly adjoining the property. There are no facilities for swimming, sports, or recreation present on the plot.
This plot is suitable for buyers specifically looking for a large plot of land (over 1 hectare) for agricultural or extensive purposes. It suits those who value absolute quiet and have the capacity to initiate a long-term construction or development trajectory. It is less suitable for those seeking move-in-ready living comfort or those who prefer to reside in a built-up area.
This involves an undeveloped plot. The ground is described as 'rustic land', meaning the substrate consists of original soil layers and vegetation characteristic of this part of the Andalusian hinterland. There is well water available and the possibility of obtaining an electricity connection, although the current infrastructure requires reinforcement for use.
The asking price for this plot is €115,000. There is no variation in typology, as it concerns only the land. There are no additional options or finish levels affecting the price. The purchase price includes only the land price, excluding any construction costs or permits.
Valtocado is characterized as a rural residential neighborhood above the coast of Málaga. At an elevation of 372 meters above sea level, the temperature is often a few degrees lower than at the beach, which can be experienced as refreshing during the summer months. The environment is quiet and green, making it attractive for those seeking seclusion. For daily groceries, the nearest supermarket is located 3.7 km away, highlighting the necessity of transport. The presence of three well-known miradors (viewpoints) in the immediate vicinity points to the panoramic qualities of this hillside location.
The living environment in Valtocado is rural and car-dependent. Without a car, mobility in this zone is not practical given the distances to amenities. The surroundings offer little traffic congestion, resulting in a quiet atmosphere. For social activities, restaurants, and entertainment, one is dependent on the coastal towns in the vicinity.
The map displays the position of the plot in relation to the coastline of Fuengirola and the surrounding hills of Mijas. Distances to the beach and airport are measured in a straight line.
