Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens in Estepona (€418,800) and Aby Upper in Estepona (€320,000), which are located closer to the coast in the popular western parts of the Costa del Sol, this villa in Vélez-Málaga positions itself in a different market segment. Vélez-Málaga, situated in the Axarquía region, offers a more urban character and often larger plots at a potentially lower price per square meter for land than the immediate beachfront. Alba Benalmádena (€699,000), located more towards the central Costa del Sol, presents a comparable price point but may differ in property type and specific location advantages. This villa stands out due to its substantial plot size and inland location, resulting in a different living environment compared to typical beachfront villas further west. The price of €730,000 for 5 bedrooms and a large garden in Vélez-Málaga reflects its size and amenities, while also indicating that the Axarquía region may offer different value compared to the more developed western coastal zones.
