A key-ready detached villa of 513 m² on a 1,150 m² private plot in Cortijo Blanco, the beachside district of San Pedro de Alcántara near Marbella. The house offers four bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a private pool and south-facing orientation, with the nearest beach roughly 200 metres away as the crow flies. Puerto Banús lies about 2 km further along the coast. The asking price is fixed at €4,400,000, with completion indicated for the end of 2026. The property is sold unfurnished, with the lower level left open for custom fitting.
At €4,400,000 for a key-ready detached villa, this property occupies a different segment from the comparable new-build apartment projects currently marketed on the coast. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,950, all of which are apartment developments aimed primarily at second-home and investment buyers. Those projects offer shared pools and communal facilities at a fraction of the price, but not the privacy, plot size or single-storey-by-design spaciousness of a detached villa. The relevant comparison class for this villa is instead the beachside villa stock of the Marbella, San Pedro corridor. Here the differentiators are structural: a 1,150 m² private plot within walking distance of the beach is rare, since most villa districts on this coast, Nueva Andalucía, Sierra Blanca, Los Flamingos, sit inland on hillsides with sea views but with a drive or steep walk to the sand. Cortijo Blanco inverts that trade-off: no sea views, but genuine walkability, flat terrain and a residential neighbourhood with year-round residents rather than seasonal turnover. Location within the region is also strong on services: golf at 3.0 km, Puerto Banús at 2.0 km, two international schools within 7 km, and public transport coverage unusual for villa locations. The completion date of end 2026, indicative as always, means the buyer acquires a new-build standard of construction without the phased-committee risk of large resort developments. Buyers weighing this against inland golf-valley villas should weigh the value of sea proximity and flat access against the absence of panoramic views; against the comparable apartment projects listed, the comparison is simply one of budget and product type rather than location quality.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Cortijo Blanco sits between San Pedro de Alcántara's town centre and the beach, at sea level on flat terrain. The nearest sand, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, is 0.2 km away in a straight line, with Playa de San Pedro about 1.0 km. Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina is 2.0 km distant. The area combines residential streets with immediate access to restaurants, cafés and banks within a two-kilometre radius.
The villa provides four bedrooms and seven bathrooms across three effective levels, with a guest bedroom and en-suite on the ground floor. Living space totals 513 m², including an open-plan lounge, dining area and kitchen, plus a basement awaiting conversion. Outdoors there is a private pool, garden, covered terrace and barbecue area. Air conditioning, underfloor heating and a fireplace cover year-round climate control.
The villa is new construction with key-ready status; the indicated completion date is the end of 2026 and should be treated as indicative. The lower level is delivered unfinished, with a laundry room and bathroom already installed, allowing the buyer to add an entertainment room, gym, spa or playroom. The property is sold without furniture, so interior furnishing and basement fitting are budgeted separately.
The property offers no sea views; views are oriented towards the garden and pool. It is delivered unfurnished, and the basement requires completion by the buyer. There is no mention of included parking garage details, storage beyond a dedicated storage room, or communal facilities such as a gym or spa, leisure amenities must be created within the house itself. The plot of 1,150 m² is moderate for a villa of this size.
This villa fits buyers in a few recognisable situations. The first is a family relocating to the Marbella area permanently: the four bedrooms, each effectively en-suite, the ground-floor guest room and the proximity of international schools, The International School of Estepona at 5.3 km and the British International School at 6.6 km, both straight-line, make it workable for year-round family life with school-age children. A second situation is a buyer seeking a beachside second home with genuine walkability. At 0.2 km from the sand and with the restaurants and services of San Pedro within a short radius, the property suits those who want the coastal lifestyle without depending on a car for daily outings. The flat terrain to the beach matters here: there is no hill between the house and the sea, which is not the case everywhere on this coastline. A third profile is the buyer who wants a large, customisable interior. The 513 m² of living space and the deliberately unfinished lower level give room to install a spa, cinema or gym to personal specification, which rarely exists in completed resale stock. It fits less well for buyers prioritising sea views, the outlook here is to garden and pool, or those wanting a turnkey, furnished property delivered ready for immediate rental use. The unfurnished state and basement works require time and additional budget after handover.
The villa is built as contemporary new construction with a specification aimed at the upper segment of the Marbella market. Interior imagery confirms a designer kitchen with island and marble backsplash, bathrooms with double vanity units, a glass-walled staircase and a living room with large glazing, consistent with the open-plan ground floor described in the project data. Climate control is specified at three levels: ducted air conditioning for summer, underfloor heating for the cooler months, and a fireplace as a supplementary heat source and visual centrepiece. This layering is appropriate for a climate with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, where both heating and cooling are used during the year. Practical finishing includes fitted wardrobes throughout the sleeping areas, a storage room, and a covered terrace extending the usable outdoor season. The house is delivered unfurnished, which in this segment usually means kitchen and sanitary ware are installed but loose furniture, lighting fixtures and decoration are the buyer's responsibility. The lower level is the main unfinished element. A laundry room and a bathroom are already in place, but the remaining space is a shell awaiting the buyer's programme, home cinema, gym, spa or playroom. Buyers should treat this as a separate works budget and timeline after completion, ideally planned with the developer during the 2026 construction period to coordinate trades while access is straightforward. Structural quality, waterproofing and services to the basement should be verified in the technical documentation during due diligence.
The asking price is fixed at €4,400,000 for the complete property, villa, pool, garden and plot of 1,150 m². This is an existing-home transaction rather than a phased new-build release, so there is no price list or range; the figure applies to the single key-ready unit described. Completion is indicated for the end of 2026, subject to the usual caveat that delivery dates on new construction are indicative. Buyers should additionally budget for the unfurnished delivery: interior furnishing and the fitting-out of the lower level are not included in the asking price. Notary, legal and transfer costs follow standard Spanish practice for a resale-style acquisition of new construction.
Daily life in this villa centres on the combination of indoor-outdoor living and the proximity of the sea. The ground floor works as a single flowing zone: lounge, dining area and a contemporary kitchen open directly onto the covered terrace, pool and garden, so the boundary between inside and outside largely disappears for most of the year. With south-facing orientation and an average annual temperature of 19.0°C, the terraces receive sun throughout the day, while the flat 2% gradient to the beach means the sea is genuinely reachable on foot rather than being a drive away. The rhythm of the neighbourhood is that of an established residential enclave with a full amenity layer around it: within two kilometres there are 59 restaurants, 19 cafés, 9 pharmacies and 12 banks. Morning coffee, errands and evening meals out do not require a car. Polideportivo San Pedro, the municipal sports centre at 1.7 km, adds swimming and court sports, and ten public transport lines with 50 stops in the area make car-free days practical, which is uncommon for villa locations on this coast. The house itself is organised for a household that hosts. Seven bathrooms across four bedrooms means each sleeping space is self-contained, with the ground-floor en-suite guest room useful for visitors or staff. The 513 m² of living area gives generous circulation space, and the unfinished lower level, with laundry and bathroom already in place, lets the owner define whether that becomes a cinema, gym, spa or playroom. The swimming season runs about five months with water at or above 20°C, and the fireplace covers the mild winter months when temperatures average around 12°C.
The surroundings of Cortijo Blanco are unusually amenity-dense for a villa district. Within a two-kilometre radius the data records 59 restaurants, 19 cafés, 9 pharmacies, 12 banks and a dentist, which places almost all daily needs within a short walk or cycle. San Pedro de Alcántara's town centre, with its weekly market and pedestrian shopping streets, sits just inland of the neighbourhood. The beach is the defining feature: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 0.2 km as the crow flies, Playa de San Pedro at 1.0 km and Playa Atalaya at 4.1 km give a choice of chiringuitos, quieter stretches and water sports. The 2% gradient means the entire route is flat, an evening walk to the sea takes minutes. For sport, Polideportivo San Pedro (1.7 km) offers municipal facilities including pools and courts, with the Apolo centre at 2.0 km and a climbing facility at 2.1 km. Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 2.0 km adds marina services, boat charters and the nightlife and dining of Puerto Banús within an easy drive or a longer walk. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.8 km is a local spot for sunset over the port.

Cortijo Blanco occupies a specific niche on the Costa del Sol: the quiet, established beachside edge of San Pedro de Alcántara, minutes from but structurally separate from the buzz of Puerto Banús. Marbella's old town lies roughly 8 km east along the coast, Estepona to the west, and Benahavís and its restaurants a short drive inland. The location reads as a base for people who want beach proximity and everyday practicality, schools, supermarkets, medical services, without living inside a resort zone. Within the Marbella municipality it is one of the few neighbourhoods where a detached villa stands this close to flat, walkable beachfront.
Distances below are straight-line; actual road routes are longer. The villa lies 3.0 km from both Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and Magna Marbella Golf, two of the coast's established courses, with golf practice facilities at The Range 3.9 km away. Beaches start at 0.2 km and continue along the coast. By car, Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport is roughly 48 km straight-line and Gibraltar Airport about 50 km, giving two international departure options in opposite directions along the coast. Alicante-Elche at approximately 438 km is not a practical option. Electric-vehicle owners have the Marbella Supercharger at 5.1 km and a second Supercharger near Estepona at 8.3 km. Public transport is a genuine asset here: 10 lines serve the area with 50 stops, connecting San Pedro with Marbella, Estepona and inland villages. For a villa location on the Costa del Sol, this level of service means the household is not fully car-dependent, though a car remains the practical choice for golf, schools and airport runs.

The climate data points to a classic coastal Andalusian profile: average monthly temperatures between 12°C and 26°C, an annual average of 19.0°C, and a swimming season of about five months during which sea water holds at or above 20°C, roughly May through September. Winters are mild enough that the outdoor terraces and barbecue area remain usable for much of the year, with the fireplace and underfloor heating covering cooler evenings. The site sits at 2 metres above sea level on terrain with a 2% gradient to the beach, effectively flat. This has two consequences: no sea views from the house itself, and easy, level access to the shoreline on foot or by bicycle. The immediate greenery is the private garden; broader natural areas lie inland towards the Sierra de Ronda foothills, while the coastal strip offers the paseo marítimo network connecting San Pedro towards Puerto Banús. With roughly 32 local public holidays per year, the calendar is marked by processions, ferias and beach-season events that structure the year for residents.

The villa's position 0.2 km from Playa Canina Ventura del Mar places it in the first beach line of residential streets. Playa de San Pedro at 1.0 km is a broad, family-oriented beach with chiringuitos and a well-maintained promenade, while Playa Atalaya at 4.1 km offers a quieter alternative towards Estepona. Golf is a short trip: Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and Magna Marbella Golf both lie 3.0 km away as the crow flies, part of the dense cluster of courses known as Golf Valley inland of Nueva Andalucía. Practice facilities at The Range sit 3.9 km distant. Water-based recreation centres on Puerto Deportivo José Banús (2.0 km), with berths, charters and water sports, while the marinas of central Marbella (8.0 km) and La Bajadilla (9.3 km) extend the options. On land, Polideportivo San Pedro (1.7 km), Apolo (2.0 km) and a climbing centre (2.1 km) cover indoor sport. Tennis and padel clubs are common along this stretch of coast, and the private pool and barbecue terrace in the garden cover everyday leisure at home.
