This project presents a unique opportunity to build in the authentic Andalusian village of La Viñuela, located in the province of Málaga. The plots, each 120 m², are situated in a rural environment, ideal for those seeking tranquility while remaining close to amenities. With the possibility to build on 80% of the plot, over two floors plus a basement, this project offers flexibility for developing a custom home in the heart of La Axarquía.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is located in La Viñuela, a charming village situated 162 meters above sea level in the province of Málaga. Its inland location offers a peaceful, rural atmosphere, while the coast of Torre del Mar is just 19 km away. This is a place where the traditional Andalusian lifestyle is central, surrounded by the nature of the La Axarquía region.
These building plots are suitable for buyers looking to design and build their own home. The option to construct a basement, ground floor, first floor, and potentially an attic provides space for diverse living needs. It's an opportunity to create a home that perfectly matches individual requirements, in an environment that offers both tranquility and connectivity.
This offering consists of eight building plots, each with an area of 120 m². The building allowance is set at 80% of the plot size, spread over two residential floors plus a basement. This grants the buyer the freedom to design a home according to their own vision, with the realization process entirely in the hands of the future owner.
Buyers should consider the maximum buildable area of 80% per plot and the restriction to two residential floors plus a basement. The plots are intended for residential construction only, not commercial use. The proximity to the hospital, while a facility, may also imply potential noise. Final building plans must comply with local regulations.
These building plots are suitable for buyers seeking a project to construct their own home in an authentic Spanish setting. It is a fitting choice for individuals who prefer a quiet village life, away from the coastal bustle, yet desire the region's amenities within reach. Consider seniors looking to build an accessible home, families seeking a peaceful place to live, or investors who see potential in developing a property for rent or resale. The ability to design the home entirely to personal taste and budget makes it attractive for anyone wanting control over the construction process and the final outcome.
While the plots themselves form the foundation, the focus is on the potential for the final residential construction. The 80% buildability on a 120 m² plot, spread over two floors plus a basement, allows for approximately 180 m² of living space (excluding the basement). This necessitates a sound building plan and material selection. The location, inland and at an altitude of 162 meters, suggests a construction style that considers the local climate, possibly emphasizing insulation and shading. The choice of materials and finishes rests entirely with the buyer, offering the freedom to furnish the home according to personal preference and budget.
The eight available building plots in La Viñuela start from a price of €30,000 each. Each plot measures 120 m², representing an excellent entry price for those wishing to build a home in this tranquil part of Andalusia. The building allowance of 80% over two floors plus a basement offers the chance to realize substantial living space. Given the attractive pricing and design flexibility, this offer is particularly appealing to self-builders or investors seeking value in the province of Málaga.

Compared to projects on the immediate coast such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €219,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €259,000), this project positions itself significantly differently. The mentioned coastal projects typically involve already built apartments or villas with considerably higher prices, aimed at immediate occupancy or rental. This project in La Viñuela, conversely, is a building plot. The price of €30,000 for a plot is very low compared to the Costa del Sol, emphasizing the opportunity for self-building in a quieter, rural area. The distance to the coast and airport is greater here, leading to a lower price per square meter of land but also entailing a different lifestyle and accessibility. The initial investment here is primarily focused on the land price, with construction costs to follow. This makes it an option for a specific target audience that values the tranquility of the interior and the flexibility of a custom-built project, unlike the more developed and expensive coastal areas.
