PLANS to build 1,900 new homes in Torrox have been re-visited after a 12-month wait.

A €28.4 million investment will fund 72 one, two and three-bedroom houses, the plans for which have been shelved since 2018.

Prices for a two-bedroom property at the site start at €216,000.

This urbanization, designed by the Madrid BOD studio, is intended to be the centrepiece of the overall project.

Titled ‘Essense’, the sustainable development is focussed on outdoor living and will be marketed at the Northern European market.

Properties come complete with a health club, 12km of hiking trails, organic orchards and vineyards with a winery where residents can make their own wine.

Building work will resume in the new year, once damage from vandalism sustained during the site’s closure is repaired.
