This exclusive project, nestled in the hilly landscape of Benahavís, Málaga province, represents a significant investment in a stylish lifestyle. The villa offers four bedrooms and six bathrooms, spread across an impressive 770 m² of living space on a generous 7825 m² plot. With a starting price of €3,695,000, this development is aimed at buyers seeking premium quality and exclusivity in one of Andalusia's most desirable areas. The architecture blends modern aesthetics with the natural surroundings, resulting in a home that exudes both luxury and tranquility.
Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper (both in Estepona) and Alba Benalmadena, priced from €418,800, €320,000, and €699,000 respectively, this villa in Benahavís positions itself significantly higher in the luxury segment. The aforementioned projects appear to focus more on apartments or smaller homes in more urban or coastal areas, with lower entry prices. In contrast, the Benahavís villa offers considerably more living space, a much larger private plot, and an exclusive, rural setting emphasizing privacy and nature. While the other projects might be closer to amenities or the beach, Benahavís provides a unique combination of tranquility, space, and proximity to renowned golf courses, appealing to a specific demographic willing to invest in this exclusivity. The price reflects the scale, location, and luxury finishes, which differ substantially from the entry-level options in Estepona and Benalmadena.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa is situated in Benahavís, a municipality known for its natural beauty and relative tranquility, located between busier coastal towns. Despite its rural setting, the location offers good accessibility to amenities. Its proximity to golf courses and the coastline, just a few kilometers away, strategically positions the project for both lifestyle appeal and potential value growth.
For those seeking a spacious, luxurious residence with ample privacy, this project is worth considering. The villa is designed with attention to detail and comfort, featuring multiple en-suite bathrooms, expansive living areas, and a private swimming pool. The size of the plot provides space for various outdoor activities and a sense of exclusivity, appealing to buyers with specific desires for space and luxury.
This is a new construction project, currently in the planning or building phase. Buyers have the opportunity, within certain parameters, to influence the finishing touches, which enhances personalization. Completion is expected within 12 to 14 months after obtaining building permits, requiring some planning from potential buyers.
The villa is located inland, meaning direct beach access is not available. The necessity of a car for daily travel is a significant aspect of the location. While amenities are present in the vicinity, their scale and variety might be more limited compared to larger coastal cities. The price range positions this project in the upper segment of the market.
This project is particularly suitable for buyers seeking a spacious, luxurious, and private home on the Costa del Sol, with a preference for a quieter, natural environment while remaining close to amenities. It is an option for those looking to make a significant investment in a stylish property, possibly as a second home, permanent residence, or part of a real estate portfolio. The layout with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, large living areas, and an outdoor space with a private pool is ideal for families or for entertaining guests. The rural location, combined with the relatively short distance to the coast and the airport, appeals to those who appreciate the tranquility of the countryside without losing connection to urban centers. Potential buyers should consider the need for a car and the specific characteristics of a new development, such as construction time and customization options.
The villa is characterized by a high standard of finish, emphasizing modern materials and technology. Specifications include GRESPANIA floor tiles (600x600 to 1200x1200), COVERLAM plates for bathroom walls and kitchen countertops, and sanitary ware from ROCA or similar brands. The kitchen is fully equipped with Bosch appliances or equivalent. Climate control is provided by aerothermal systems, with underfloor heating (hydraulic on the ground and first floors, electric in bathrooms) and air conditioning. Further technological additions include 20 solar panels with 2x 10kW batteries, an EV charging station, home automation, and electric sun blinds. The architecture features floor-to-ceiling windows and doors, and a pneumatic elevator. Optional features include a full COVERLAM kitchen and basement expansions.
The asking price for this exclusive Detached Villa in Benahavís starts from €3,695,000. Given its size, location, and amenities, this is a price indication within the high-end market segment. The villa features 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, with a generous living area of 770 m² on a 7825 m² plot. Specific details regarding availability, such as the exact construction phase and potential choices in finishing, are part of the project documentation. Interested parties are advised to contact directly for the most current information and specific unit pricing, as this is a new development where the exact configuration may still vary.
Benahavís, located in the province of Málaga, is a municipality offering a unique balance between a traditional Spanish mountain village and modern luxury. Covering 145 km² and situated at an elevation of 174 meters above sea level, it presents a scenically diverse terrain, ranging from rugged nature to charming cobbled streets. The population density is relatively low, with approximately 9,472 inhabitants, contributing to a sense of space and peace. The region's economy partly relies on tourism, with 24 hotels and a substantial number of tourist beds, but also on its local community and proximity to Marbella and Estepona. The average annual temperature of 18.3°C and over 3,800 hours of sunshine per year create a pleasant climate for outdoor living. The well-developed infrastructure, including 13 primary and 11 secondary schools, suggests a focus on family life, although the median provincial income of €16,450 indicates it serves an exclusive niche market. All these factors create an environment that is both residential and recreational, with an emphasis on nature, sports, and relaxation.
Benahavís offers a tranquil lifestyle, characterized by its rural location on the slopes of the Sierra de las Nieves. The immediate vicinity of the villa is marked by the presence of golf courses, such as La Zagaleta (1.8 km) and Marbella Club Golf Resort (2.6 km), making this location attractive to golfers.

Its location approximately 50 km from Málaga Airport ensures good international connectivity, while the proximity to marinas like Puerto Banús (8.7 km) provides access to maritime facilities.
The villa is located 48 km by air from Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport, a journey that typically takes around 45-50 minutes by car. Beaches like Playa del Saladillo are approximately 7 km away (as the crow flies). For daily shopping, a supermarket is reachable at 4 km.
