A fully renovated detached villa of 793 m² on a 1,639 m² plot in Torrequebrada, Benalmádena, on the central Costa del Sol. The property offers five bedrooms, six bathrooms and two guest toilets across two levels, with a private pool, sauna, gym space, guest apartment and an 87 m² garage. Completed in 1996 and recently refurbished, it is key-ready. Playa de la Yuca lies 78 m away as the crow flies, and Málaga Airport approximately 11 km. The asking price is fixed at €3,880,000. Torrequebrada Golf Club, international schools and Benalmádena's marina are all within a short drive.
At €3,880,000 for 793 m² of living space, this villa occupies a segment of the Costa del Sol market that differs fundamentally from the region's new-build output. The comparable projects listed, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000, are residential developments of apartments or townhouses aimed at the broad mid-market. This property is a single, large, turnkey villa with land, wellness facilities and independent guest accommodation, and it competes not with new-build price lists but with the resale stock of large coastal villas. Within Benalmádena, the immediate Torresolquebrada setting is one of the few stretches where detached villas of this scale sit within 100 m of the beach as the crow flies; most large plots on this coast have either been redeveloped into apartments or pushed up the hillside away from the shore. That proximity carries both advantages and trade-offs. The urban coastline here is fully built up, with 24 hotels and roughly 11,150 beds in the surrounding area, so summer brings noticeably more activity than winter, a pattern that buyers used to quieter inland or eastern locations should weigh. Against Marbella and Estepona to the west, Torrequebrada offers closer airport access at around 11 km versus roughly 45-80 km, and lower headline prices for equivalent plot sizes, at the cost of a denser, more mixed urban fabric. Against the eastern Costa del Sol around Torre del Mar, it offers more services, more international schools and a deeper resale market, around 2,070 housing transactions per year locally, but at several times the price per square metre of new-build apartments there. The property's position is therefore specific: a buyer choosing this villa is prioritising finished space, beach proximity and infrastructure over new-build warranties, modern energy performance certificates from first delivery, or the larger, quieter plots available further inland or westward.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa stands in a consolidated residential urbanisation in Torrequebrada, within the municipality of Benalmádena. The coast is 78 m away as the crow flies, with Playa Benalnatura at 387 m and Playa Las Viborillas at 575 m. A supermarket lies 596 m away, a pharmacy 532 m, and a hospital 2.0 km. The setting is urban with amenities within walking distance, and Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is roughly 11 km distant in a straight line.
The house provides 793 m² of living space over two levels: five bedrooms, six bathrooms plus two guest toilets, a primary suite with two terraces and a walk-in dressing room, and a self-contained guest apartment with its own kitchen. Outside are a private pool, jacuzzi, a 90 m² covered terrace and sunbathing areas with sea views. An 87 m² garage accommodates several cars with direct access to the villa.
This is not a new-build project. The villa was completed in 1996 and has since undergone a full renovation and refurbishment, and is now key-ready. That means no construction phase, no phased payments and no delivery risk; the buyer purchases a finished home that can be occupied immediately after completion of the standard purchase process.
The property is a single existing home, so there is no choice of unit, floor plan or finishing package. The orientation listed includes north-facing aspects alongside south and west, meaning some rooms receive less direct sun. Built area dates from 1996, so buyers should verify the standard technical documentation independently. No data is available on community fees or annual property taxes in the source material.
This property fits a buyer who wants a substantial, finished family home or full-time residence on the Costa del Sol without a construction phase. A household that needs five bedrooms plus independent guest accommodation, for visiting family, staff or rental of a self-contained unit, will find the layout matches that requirement directly. Families with school-age children benefit from Torrequebrada International College about 200 m away and two further international schools within about 2.5 km. Buyers who prioritise walking access to the beach, with Playa de la Yuca under 100 m away in a straight line, will find few large villas in this price bracket so close to the shoreline. The property also suits buyers relocating from abroad: Málaga Airport is roughly 11 km away, and the train stations at Torremuelle and Benalmádena-Arroyo de la Miel provide connections along the coast. It is less suitable for buyers seeking a lock-and-leave apartment with communal services, a new-build property with warranty coverage from first delivery, or a low-maintenance home without a pool and garden to manage. The plot of 1,639 m² and the wellness facilities carry maintenance obligations that suit an owner-occupier more than an occasional visitor. Buyers focused primarily on rental yield should note that this segment of the market trades on use value and location rather than gross rental percentages.
The villa was built in 1996 and has since undergone a full renovation described as recent, bringing the finishes and technical systems to a contemporary standard. The property is documented as in excellent condition. On the technical side, the house has a solar system for hot water and solar panels for electricity generation, air-conditioning and heating in all rooms, and underfloor heating or roof heating in the bathrooms, a combination that reduces running costs and improves winter comfort compared with older coastal stock. The primary suite has two terraces, dual en-suite bathrooms and a custom walk-in dressing room, indicating a fitted rather than generic interior. There are six full bathrooms and two guest toilets, generous for the five-bedroom configuration. Security measures include high perimeter walls around the plot and an integrated alarm system. The 87 m² garage offers enclosed multi-car parking with direct internal access to the villa, which is relevant both for convenience and for vehicle security. Externally, the 90 m² covered terrace and surrounding sun terraces are oriented for all-day sun with views over the Mediterranean, Puerto Marina, the mountains and Torrequebrada Golf. Wellness infrastructure is built in: a Finnish sauna for eight to ten people, a dedicated yoga and gym space, a jacuzzi and a private pool. Buyers should nonetheless commission an independent technical survey, as with any building of this age, to verify the state of the roof structure, damp proofing and the original 1996 building fabric behind the renovation.
The asking price is €3,880,000, fixed, as this is an existing home rather than a new-build development with a price list. For that amount the buyer acquires 793 m² of built living space on a 1,639 m² plot, with five bedrooms, six full bathrooms and two guest toilets, a private pool, sauna, gym, guest apartment and an 87 m² multi-car garage. The property is key-ready and recently renovated, so no additional construction budget is needed to occupy it. Compared with new-build apartments elsewhere on the coast that start between roughly €205,000 and €270,000, this is a different segment of the market: a single, large, turnkey villa. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard purchase process and verification of title and documentation.
Daily life at this address is organised around two things: proximity to the sea and space within the house. The beach at Playa de la Yuca is roughly 78 m away in a straight line, so morning walks and evening swims require no car. Supermarkets, a pharmacy and a health centre sit between about 500 m and 2 km from the door, and the urbanisation has around 47 restaurants and 10 cafés within a 2 km radius, which supports year-round living rather than purely seasonal use. The house itself is spread over two levels, which keeps circulation simple: the primary suite with its two terraces and dual en-suite bathrooms functions as a self-contained zone, while the guest apartment with a private kitchen opens onto the pool terrace, allowing visitors or staff to stay independently. The 90 m² covered terrace extends living outdoors for most of the year given an average annual temperature of 18.6°C. Torremuelle train station is 1.6 km away as the crow flies, and six public transport lines with around 50 stops serve the wider area, so a car is convenient but not strictly necessary for local errands. Torrequebrada International College lies about 200 m away, a practical fact for families. The 8-to-10-person sauna, the gym and yoga space, and the jacuzzi mean that wellness facilities are used on the property rather than sought elsewhere. The gradient to the beach is around 5.5%, moderate enough for most people to walk, though the return uphill takes some effort on warm days.
Torrequebrada is an established residential area of Benalmádena, directly on the coast and fully urbanised. Within 2 km of the villa there are around 47 restaurants, four schools, seven pharmacies, two banks and one hospital, plus two health centres in the wider district. A supermarket sits 596 m away and the hospital 2.0 km, both reachable on foot or by bicycle for most residents. The tourism footprint in the area, 24 hotels with roughly 11,150 beds, means the surroundings are busier in summer and quieter in winter, a rhythm typical of the central Costa del Sol. Education infrastructure is substantial, with 13 primary schools and 11 secondary schools in the area, and Torrequebrada International College about 200 m from the property. Sports facilities nearby include Club de Raqueta at 1.6 km, an ice rink at 2.3 km and Club Hockey Benalmádena at 2.9 km, all straight-line distances. For electric vehicle owners, charging points start at about 4.1 km. Train access runs through Torremuelle station at 1.6 km, with Benalmádena-Arroyo de la Miel at 2.2 km and Carvajal at 4.2 km, connecting along the Fuengirola-Málaga commuter line. Six bus lines and around 50 stops serve the municipality.
The map shows the villa's position in Torrequebrada, directly on the Benalmádena coast. Playa de la Yuca is under 100 m away as the crow flies, with the train line, golf courses and Málaga Airport around 11 km to the north-east all clearly placed in context.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Torrequebrada sits on the Benalmádena coast between Torremolinos and Fuengirola, roughly 20 km south-west of Málaga city and about 11 km from the international airport in a straight line. Within the regional hierarchy it occupies the middle stretch of the Costa del Sol, more consolidated and service-rich than the eastern coast around Torre del Mar, less resort-driven than Marbella to the west. Benalmádena combines a dense coastal strip with a traditional pueblo 4.6 km inland, and the area records around 2,070 housing transactions per year, indicating an active resale market.
The nearest beach, Playa de la Yuca, lies 78 m away as the crow flies, with Playa Benalnatura at 387 m and Playa Las Viborillas at 575 m, an unusually short distance for a villa of this size. The gradient down to the shore is about 5.5%, moderate and walkable. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is roughly 11 km in a straight line, typically around fifteen minutes by car, which places the property among the better-connected coastal villas on this coast. Gibraltar Airport lies about 86 km away. For golfers, Golf Benalmádena Pitch & Putt is 2.4 km distant, the Miguel Ángel Jiménez course 7.7 km, and Lauro Golf 10 km; Torrequebrada Golf Club itself is about 2.5 km from the villa. Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola marina is 7.6 km away and Benalmádena Puerto Marina around 3.5 km. Public transport is workable: Torremuelle station at 1.6 km connects to Málaga and Fuengirola, and six bus lines run through the area. A car remains convenient for golf, hospital visits and shopping in bulk, but daily essentials are within walking or cycling range.

The site sits at 26 m above sea level, low on the coastal shelf between the sea and the Benalmádena hills, which explains the moderate 5.5% gradient to the beach. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 18.6°C, and the swimming season, when sea water holds at 20°C or above, runs about four months, concentrated in summer, although the private pool and jacuzzi on the plot extend that window considerably. Winters are mild, and the combination of air-conditioning, heating throughout, underfloor or roof heating in bathrooms, and solar hot water makes the house practical for year-round occupation rather than purely seasonal use. The elevated sun terraces benefit from the coast's typical high sunshine hours, and the views reach over the sea to Puerto Marina and back to the mountains behind Torrequebrada. The Mirador del Madroño viewpoint at 4.9 km marks the transition to the wooded hillsides behind the town. The Mediterranean vegetation of palms and coastal planting frames the property on the seaward side, visible from the terraces and the bedroom balconies.

Three beaches lie within roughly 600 m: Playa de la Yuca at 78 m, Playa Benalnatura at 387 m and Playa Las Viborillas at 575 m, all straight-line distances. This density means beach access is a matter of minutes on foot rather than a car trip, and different beaches can be used for different purposes, swimming, beach bars or quieter stretches. Golf options are layered by distance: Golf Benalmádena Pitch & Putt at 2.4 km for short practice, the Miguel Ángel Jiménez course at 7.7 km, Lauro Golf at 10 km, and Torrequebrada Golf Club about 2.5 km from the villa. On-site recreation is a defining feature: the private pool, jacuzzi, 8-to-10-person Finnish sauna and dedicated gym and yoga space allow daily wellness routines without leaving the plot. Beyond the property, sports clubs within 3 km include a racket club, an ice rink and a hockey club. Puerto Marina in Benalmádena, around 3.5 km away, and the marina at Fuengirola, 7.6 km, provide sailing, dining and nightlife. The 90 m² covered terrace serves as the outdoor living room for much of the year, oriented for all-day sun.
