Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
This property is situated in a rural enclave of Benahavís, a charming Spanish town renowned for its gastronomy. The location provides a serene escape from coastal hustle, while maintaining relatively short distances to essential services like shops and medical care.
With four bedrooms and four bathrooms, complemented by generous living areas, this villa is designed for comfortable family life or entertaining guests. The emphasis is on modern finishes and a functional layout, ideal for those seeking a move-in ready home with ample space for relaxation.
This project involves an existing, excellently maintained villa. Construction is complete, and the property is available immediately. There is potential to add a further floor, offering flexibility for future customization or expansion to suit personal needs.
The immediate surroundings are characterized by a rural setting, meaning public transport options are limited. A car is necessary for daily commutes and accessing the wider amenities of the Costa del Sol. Benahavís village itself is not directly on the coast.
This villa is suitable for buyers who appreciate a quiet living environment yet wish to remain close to the amenities of the Costa del Sol. It is an ideal choice for families seeking space, with four bedrooms and a large garden. Golf enthusiasts will value the proximity to several top courses. The location is also attractive for those seeking a second home with potential for capital appreciation, given the possibility of adding an extra floor. The authentic village of Benahavís offers a cultural experience, while the nearness to Marbella and Estepona ensures access to international schools and luxury facilities.
The villa boasts excellent finishing features, including marble flooring for a luxurious and durable aesthetic. Air conditioning and central heating ensure year-round comfort. The presence of a barbecue, storage room, and basement enhances practical living convenience. The property is designed with a southern orientation to maximize natural light. Covered and private terraces offer various outdoor spaces for relaxation, with views of the garden, mountains, and sea.
The asking price for this detached villa is €3,195,000. This represents a single offering for an existing property, indicating immediate availability. The price reflects its location in a sought-after area, the spacious layout with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and the substantial 1124 m² plot. Compared to the listed projects in Benahavís, this villa is positioned in the higher price bracket, reflecting its exclusivity and size.
Benahavís, nestled between Marbella and Estepona, offers a unique blend of tranquility and accessibility. The town is celebrated as a culinary hub, yet retains its authentic Spanish character. This villa's location, inland, provides a peaceful atmosphere with views of the surrounding mountains, while the coast with its beaches and services is just a short drive away. Its altitude of 174 meters above sea level contributes to pleasant temperatures and panoramic vistas. With 3,846 hours of sunshine annually and a swimming season of 4 months, the region offers abundant opportunities for outdoor living. The proximity to various golf courses, sports facilities, and natural viewpoints enriches the recreational options for residents.

The location in the province of Málaga, with its Mediterranean climate, is characterized by long sunny periods, ideal for outdoor activities throughout much of the year. The altitude of 174 meters contributes to a pleasant microclimate.

Compared to nearby projects like La Finca de Jasmine (from €2,250,000) and Finca de Jasmine Sky Villas (from €2,400,000), this villa's asking price of €3,195,000 places it in the upper market segment. This can be attributed to the villa's size (428 m² living space on a 1124 m² plot) and its specific location in a quiet, rural setting yet close to golf courses and Benahavís village. Acqua Gardens in Estepona, with prices starting from €418,800, represents a different market segment, typically for apartment complexes closer to the coast. The exclusive rural setting of this villa, combined with potential expansion options, distinguishes it from projects focusing more on apartments or smaller homes nearer to the Costa del Sol's tourist hubs.
