Project Analysis

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

Location

The villa is located in El Paraiso, within the municipality of Benahavís. It borders the El Paraíso Golf Club, approximately 700 metres from the clubhouse. The property is situated 1.4 kilometres from the coastline and 14 kilometres from Marbella. The urbanisation is accessed via local roads connecting to the A-7 motorway.

Layout

The layout includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms, centred around an interior courtyard. The property features a fully fitted kitchen, a living room with a fireplace, and dining areas.

Points of Attention

The property is not located directly on the beach; the nearest coastline is 1.4 kilometres away. The villa is not a new build and reflects the architectural standards of the 1980s.

Regional Comparison

Compared to new developments like Aquamar in Torre del Mar, this villa offers a larger footprint and established gardens rather than a compact apartment. The price point reflects the premium for frontline golf positioning in El Paraiso, a more exclusive enclave than the general residential areas of Mijas or Torre del Mar. Unlike projects such as Lantana Residencial which are off-plan, this property offers immediate availability and mature landscaping. The inclusion of a rental licence provides a distinct advantage over standard residential properties in regions where such licences are restricted. The location offers a balance between the high density of Marbella and the quieter expanses of Estepona.
