A four-bedroom, three-bathroom semi-detached house in the El Paraiso Bellevue development in Benahavís, on the New Golden Mile between Estepona and Marbella. The property dates from 2008, offers 155 m² of living space on a 76 m² plot, and carries a fixed asking price of €1,050,000. It is key-ready and forms part of a small development of fourteen homes with communal gardens and a swimming pool. The house is south-facing and includes a private garden, a rooftop solarium, two parking spaces and sea views.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in El Paraiso, a residential area of Benahavís municipality on the Costa del Sol. El Campanario Golf Course lies roughly 300 metres away as the crow flies, El Paraiso Golf Club about one kilometre, and the nearest beach, Playa Isdabe, 1.3 kilometres. Marbella is 14 km away; Estepona and San Pedro de Alcántara are also within short driving distance.
The layout serves a household needing four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the principal bedroom en-suite. An open-plan living and dining area connects via sliding doors to a covered terrace and private garden. The rooftop solarium adds outdoor space oriented towards the sea. Two private parking spaces sit directly outside the property, one under a pergola.
This is an existing home, completed in 2008 and described as being in excellent condition. It is key-ready, meaning no construction phase or waiting period applies. Any renovation or personalisation would be a matter for the buyer after purchase. Delivery dates therefore do not apply; the transaction timeline follows normal resale procedures.
The property is a semi-detached house on a 76 m² plot, so private outdoor space is limited to the garden and solarium rather than a large standalone garden. There is no private pool; swimming facilities are communal. Living space is 155 m² across the floors. Buyers seeking a detached villa, large plot or private pool would need to look elsewhere.

This property suits a household that wants a move-in-ready home with four bedrooms in a quiet golf-oriented residential area, without the lead time or uncertainty of off-plan purchase. The en-suite principal bedroom and three bathrooms in total work for families with children or for households that regularly host guests. Buyers planning part-year or permanent residence benefit from the year-round amenity base: supermarkets-scale services, restaurants, schools and health centres are all within a short radius, and six public transport lines with fifty stops serve the wider area. A car nonetheless remains the practical mode for most journeys, including the drive to Marbella, Puerto Banús or Estepona. The house is less suited to buyers who want a private pool, a large private plot or a fully detached villa, since the plot is 76 m² and the pool is communal. It also does not fit buyers prioritising walk-to-everything urban living; the setting is residential and green rather than a town centre. For golf players, the combination of El Campanario at 0.3 km and El Paraiso Golf at 1.0 km is a concrete functional advantage rather than a marketing claim.
The house was completed in 2008 and is presented in excellent condition. Interior finishes include porcelain flooring throughout, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms and a fireplace in the living room. Climate control covers both hot and cold air conditioning, which matters given local summer temperatures that average up to 26°C monthly and winter averages around 12°C. The kitchen is fully fitted with appliances. The ground floor combines an open-plan living and dining area with the kitchen, and large sliding glass doors open onto the covered terrace, keeping the indoor-outdoor transition simple in practice. On the upper levels, the private rooftop solarium provides the most exposed outdoor space; its orientation towards the south and southwest supports afternoon and evening use. Buyers should note that a 2008 build predates current energy-performance expectations for new construction, and technical systems, air conditioning units, boiler, glazing, are around fifteen years old and would warrant inspection during due diligence. The two private parking spaces, one covered by a pergola, are deeded outdoor spaces rather than a closed garage, which is a relevant practical detail for car-dependent households.
The asking price is fixed at €1,050,000 for this existing home; it is not a price-list starting point. For that amount the buyer acquires 155 m² of living space with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private garden, a rooftop solarium and two parking spaces, within a fourteen-home development with communal pool. The price positions the property in the upper segment of the Benahavís, New Golden Mile market, consistent with its location between three golf courses and its proximity to the coast at 1.3 km from Playa Isdabe. Availability is immediate given the key-ready status.
El Paraiso is an established residential urbanisation characterised by low-rise housing, mature planting and a strong golf presence. The immediate setting is quiet by coastal standards: the nearest golf course is a few hundred metres away, and daily amenities cluster within a two-kilometre radius, including some thirty restaurants, several cafés, pharmacies and banks. The rhythm of life here is unhurried and oriented around outdoor living. Mornings can start on the south-facing covered terrace, with the private garden connecting to communal tropical gardens and the pool. The rooftop solarium extends usable outdoor space upward, catching light and sea views through the afternoon. For a household based here year-round, the International School of Estepona lies 0.8 km away in a straight line, and the area counts nineteen primary schools and ten secondary schools within reach. Healthcare is covered by two health centres nearby. The area is flat towards the coast, with a gradient to the beach of about 1.4 per cent, which makes walking and cycling realistic options for local trips. Out of season the neighbourhood retains its residential character rather than emptying out, since a substantial share of occupants are permanent residents of the Costa del Sol rather than holiday visitors.
Daily life in El Paraiso revolves around a compact amenity zone within two kilometres: 31 restaurants, 6 cafés, 4 pharmacies, 3 banks, a dentist and a school, supplemented by the wider service structure of Estepona and San Pedro de Alcántara a short drive away. The nearest beach, Playa Isdabe, lies 1.3 km away as the crow flies, with Salduna at 1.4 km and Playa Atalaya at 1.7 km, effectively a small choice of beaches within a few minutes by car. Golf is the defining local activity: El Campanario Golf Course at 0.3 km, El Paraiso Golf Club at 1.0 km and its clubhouse at 1.1 km. For racket sports, RozaRossa Tennis and Padel Club is 0.9 km away. Public transport consists of six lines and fifty stops in the area, workable for occasional trips but not a substitute for a car for most residents. The terrain is essentially flat towards the sea, so the walk or cycle to the coast involves no meaningful climb.

El Paraiso occupies the stretch of the New Golden Mile between Estepona and San Pedro de Alcántara, within the municipality of Benahavís. This positions the property west of Marbella's core and its price point, while remaining connected to the Puerto Banús orbit at 6.6 km. Compared with the dense apartment stock of the immediate coastline, the area is defined by villa and townhouse urbanisations set around golf courses. On the Costa del Sol as a whole, the location trades Marbella-centre proximity for quiet, greenery and larger-format housing at a comparable budget.
By road, the property sits on the A-7 corridor between Estepona and Marbella, giving access to Puerto Banús at 6.6 km straight-line, Marbella at 14 km, Estepona a comparable distance west, and Málaga city at 61 km. Two airports serve the area: Gibraltar at roughly 46 km straight-line and Malaga-Costa del Sol at about 52 km; actual driving distance to Malaga airport is longer and typically under an hour outside peak traffic. Electric-vehicle charging is available at the Supercharger Estepona, 3.8 km away, and at Marbella, 9.5 km away. For schooling, the International School of Estepona is 0.8 km away in a straight line. All distances quoted are direct, as the crow flies; road distances are longer.

The location sits at roughly 25 metres above sea level with a flat approach to the coast, which limits views to partial sea views rather than elevated panoramas. The climate is Mediterranean: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 19.2°C. The swimming season, periods when sea temperature reaches at least 20°C, lasts about five months, which frames how the communal pool and nearby beaches are actually used: intensively from late spring to early autumn, with the fireplace and hot air conditioning covering the cooler months. Two viewpoints within five kilometres, Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos at 4.4 km and Mirador del Tajo del Novio at 4.9 km, offer access to the natural surroundings of the foothills behind the coast.

Three beaches sit within walking-or-short-drive range: Playa Isdabe at 1.3 km, Salduna at 1.4 km and Playa Atalaya at 1.7 km, all measured in a straight line. Golf dominates the recreation profile of the area, with El Campanario 300 metres away, El Paraiso Golf Club at one kilometre and the clubhouse at 1.1 km, a concentration that shapes both the landscape and the rhythm of the neighbourhood. RozaRossa Tennis and Padel Club at 0.9 km covers racket sports. Puerto Deportivo José Banús, 6.6 km away, provides marina facilities, dining and the associated social scene of the Marbella coast. Local tourism infrastructure is substantial, with 24 hotels and nearly 7,000 beds in the area, which supports year-round openings of restaurants and services.

Within the western Costa del Sol, this property competes in the established resale segment of Benahavís and the New Golden Mile rather than with new-build apartment projects. The comparable new developments listed, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, sit in a different price bracket and product type: they are apartment-led schemes east or further west along the coast, generally with smaller footprints and communal facilities but no private garden or solarium. At €1,050,000 for 155 m², this townhouse prices at roughly €6,800 per square metre, which is consistent with mature Benahavís urbanisations near golf courses, where land value and established planting carry weight against newer, denser builds. What the buyer gains relative to the new-build comparables is immediacy, a key-ready home with no construction risk, and a low-density setting of fourteen homes. What the comparables offer in return is new construction standards, developer payment terms and, in some cases, seafront positioning. Regionally, Marbella at 14 km and Puerto Banús at 6.6 km define the demand catchment that supports values here; the area records around 3,163 housing transactions per year, indicating an active rather than illiquid market. Buyers weighing this property against alternatives should treat the 2008 build year, communal rather than private pool, and 76 m² plot as the main trade-offs against location and readiness.
