This exclusive residential development consists of 30 semi-detached chalets situated in Vélez-Málaga's El Limonar neighbourhood. The properties feature a three-level design with 176m² of built space and plots up to 260m². Currently under construction, these homes offer practical layouts with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The development provides residents with access to communal swimming pools and garden areas while maintaining proximity to urban amenities in this Costa del Sol location.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The development is positioned in Vélez-Málaga, an inland urban centre within the Axarquía comarca of Málaga province. While not directly on the coastline, the properties benefit from proximity to essential services, with supermarkets and pharmacies within walking distance. The location offers balance between urban convenience and access to coastal areas approximately 5 kilometres distant.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration addresses practical living requirements for families or those requiring guest accommodation. The three-level design naturally separates living and private spaces, while both private and communal outdoor areas provide options for relaxation and entertaining. The inclusion of fitted wardrobes, fully equipped kitchens, and basement storage addresses common domestic storage and functional needs.
As a new development currently under construction, the project represents modern building standards and current market offerings. The construction timeline for completion follows industry standards for developments of this scale. Being newly built, these properties will incorporate contemporary building regulations and the latest construction techniques without requiring immediate renovation or adaptation by buyers.
The development does not offer direct beachfront access or sea views from the properties, given its inland positioning approximately 5 kilometres from the coastline. Golf facilities require a journey of 35-39 kilometres to reach established courses. The semi-detached configuration inherently involves shared walls with neighbouring properties, limiting privacy compared to detached alternatives. Basement spaces may have height restrictions affecting their conversion potential.
This development suits those seeking a permanent or semi-permanent residence in Spain rather than purely a holiday investment. The three-bedroom configuration makes it appropriate for families or those expecting regular guests, while the practical amenities nearby support daily living without requiring constant travel. The location works well for individuals who appreciate having essential services within walking distance but also value proximity to coastal recreation. The urban setting with local facilities means residents can maintain daily routines without dependence on tourism infrastructure, making it suitable for those planning to reside in Spain for extended periods or year-round. The price positioning makes it accessible for buyers seeking quality construction without premium pricing, particularly those comparing values across different Costa del Sol locations. The development also appeals to buyers who prefer new construction to avoid immediate maintenance concerns while wanting established neighbourhood amenities rather than remote, developing areas. For international buyers, this project presents a straightforward option for those who value a balance between urban convenience and coastal access without the premium costs associated with frontline beach properties or exclusive golf developments.
These newly constructed properties incorporate contemporary building standards typical of modern Spanish developments. The specifications include double glazing for thermal and acoustic insulation, addressing both energy efficiency and comfort considerations. The fully fitted kitchens come equipped as standard, eliminating immediate renovation requirements upon completion. Bathroom facilities feature ensuite configurations in the principal bedroom, reflecting current market expectations for family homes. Built-in wardrobes provide integrated storage solutions, maximising the efficiency of living spaces. The inclusion of both private and covered terraces demonstrates attention to outdoor living requirements common in Mediterranean climates. Construction techniques follow current regulations, including energy efficiency standards expected in new Spanish properties. The development's gated complex arrangement provides a degree of security without resorting to overt measures that might affect the residential character. Communal areas including swimming pools and garden spaces are finished to practical standards that balance aesthetics with maintenance requirements for residential use. The basement spaces offer additional storage or potential for adaptation to specific owner requirements, though ceiling heights may limit certain conversion options. Overall, the quality of finishes reflects the mid-range positioning of these properties in the market.
Properties in this development are priced from €399,950 to €449,950, positioning them within the mid-range for new constructions in the Vélez-Málaga area. The variation reflects differences in plot sizes and specific positioning within the development. Compared to similar projects in the immediate vicinity, these prices are moderately positioned, with Lagos Homes in Vélez-Málaga starting at approximately €480,000, making this development comparatively accessible. When considering the broader Costa del Sol region, Estepona's Acqua Gardens development begins at €418,800, placing this Vélez-Málaga offering within a competitive regional context for new three-bedroom properties.
Living in this Vélez-Málaga development combines urban convenience with coastal proximity. Daily routines might include morning walks to nearby shops for essentials, with the supermarket just 273 metres away creating practical self-sufficiency without requiring vehicle use for basic necessities. The communal pool and garden areas provide leisure options without leaving home, while the three-level layout naturally separates daily activities between floors. The Mediterranean climate supports outdoor living for much of the year, with terraces offering spaces for relaxation. The position within an established urban area means services and facilities remain accessible even outside peak tourist seasons, creating year-round functionality. While the beaches are close enough for regular visits, the inland location offers a separation from seasonal tourist crowds at the coastline, providing a more consistent residential atmosphere throughout the year. Evening strolls through the El Limonar neighbourhood provide local engagement, with the town's amenities offering restaurants and services within reach. The balance between urban infrastructure and residential character creates a self-contained living environment that doesn't depend on tourism for functionality.
The properties benefit from proximity to essential infrastructure that supports daily living requirements. Within a 2-kilometre radius, residents have access to 15 restaurants, 12 pharmacies, 11 banks, and 8 cafés, creating a well-served urban environment. The town's educational infrastructure includes 19 primary schools and 9 secondary schools, supporting families with children. Healthcare provision includes 3 health centres within the municipality, with the nearest hospital located just 3.3 kilometres from the development. This proximity supports regular medical needs without extensive travel. The town's size, with a population of approximately 86,048, provides sufficient infrastructure to maintain services year-round without the seasonal fluctuations typical of purely tourist-focused locations. Transport infrastructure includes 12 bus routes and 21 public transport stops within the area, supporting mobility without complete dependence on private vehicles. The development's position within an established urban area means utilities and services are already in place, without the limitations sometimes experienced in newly developing rural zones.
The development is situated in the El Limonar neighbourhood of Vélez-Málaga, an inland urban centre approximately 5 kilometres from the Mediterranean coastline. The properties are positioned within an established residential area with direct access to local services and infrastructure. The surrounding region includes both urban developments and natural landscapes, with proximity to coastal areas and the mountainous terrain characteristic of the Axarquía region.
Vélez-Málaga serves as the capital of the Axarquía comarca and headquarters of the Commonwealth of Municipalities of Costa del Sol-Axarquía, positioning it as an administrative centre within the eastern region of Málaga province. The municipality, covering 158 square kilometres, forms part of the broader Costa del Sol region while maintaining a distinct identity separate from Málaga city itself, located approximately 35 kilometres to the west. This position provides access to both coastal amenities and inland rural areas of the Axarquía region. The town's size and administrative function mean it offers services and facilities beyond those typically found in smaller coastal resorts, creating a balanced environment between tourist-focused areas and purely residential towns. The location allows relatively easy exploration of both eastern and western Costa del Sol regions, with reasonable access to Málaga city's broader amenities when required.
The development offers balanced accessibility to key regional amenities. Beach access requires approximately 5 kilometres of travel to reach Blue Flag certified beaches including Benajarafe, La Caleta, and Torre del Mar. These coastal areas provide the expected Mediterranean seafront facilities and leisure options within a short journey. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport, positioned 37 kilometres away, offers international connections within reasonable driving time, typically 30-40 minutes under normal traffic conditions. Golf facilities require more substantial journeys, with Club de Golf Málaga Parador at 35 kilometres, Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 38 kilometres, and Club de Golf de Guadalhorce at 39 kilometres. Town centres and their associated shopping, dining, and cultural facilities are accessible within the immediate urban environment. The development's position within Vélez-Málaga means daily necessities and services are available locally without significant travel, while more specialised amenities in Málaga city remain accessible for occasional visits.

Vélez-Málaga experiences a typical Mediterranean climate with an average annual temperature of 19.1°C, supporting comfortable year-round living. The region receives approximately 3,902 hours of sunshine annually, creating significant opportunities for outdoor living and activities. The swimming season extends for approximately six months, with water temperatures reaching or exceeding 20°C between late spring and autumn. The elevation of 59 metres above sea level provides a slight moderating effect on temperatures compared to immediate coastal areas, potentially reducing summer humidity while maintaining access to coastal breezes. The inland location may experience slightly more temperature variation between seasons than frontline coastal properties, though this remains within comfortable Mediterranean ranges. The climate supports outdoor living for much of the year, with terrace spaces becoming natural extensions of the living areas during warm months. The significant number of sunshine days supports the use of communal pool areas and garden spaces throughout extended periods, maximising the functional outdoor living space available to residents.

Within the immediate Vélez-Málaga area, this development offers moderate pricing compared to similar projects. Lagos Homes in Vélez-Málaga starts at approximately €480,000, while Lavanda Villas in the same area begins at €399,950, positioning this project competitively within the local market. This suggests that Vélez-Málaga itself offers value relative to more prominent coastal destinations in the Costa del Sol region. When compared to the western Costa del Sol, specifically Estepona where Acqua Gardens development begins at €418,800, this Vélez-Málaga development presents a moderate price position with similar property specifications. The eastern Costa del Sol, including the Axarquía region where Vélez-Málaga is situated, traditionally offers more accessible pricing than the western areas closer to Marbella, though with correspondingly different international recognition and infrastructure levels. The development's positioning in Vélez-Málaga rather than directly in coastal towns like Nerja or Torrox Costa provides a balance between coastal access and urban amenities. While beachfront properties in smaller coastal towns might offer sea views and immediate beach access, they typically lack the year-round service infrastructure and educational facilities available in larger urban centres like Vélez-Málaga. This makes the development particularly relevant for buyers prioritising functional living over purely holiday features.
