This detached villa of 334 m² is located in San Pedro de Alcántara, part of the municipality of Marbella on the Costa del Sol. Completed in 2018 and delivered key-ready, the house offers three bedrooms, four bathrooms and a 20 m² terrace, with a south-facing orientation, private pool and a 20 m² outdoor space. The asking price is fixed at €845,000. The property stands in a gated complex and sits roughly 1.6 km as the crow flies from Playa de San Pedro, with Puerto Banús and several golf courses within a short radius.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa lies within San Pedro de Alcántara, a town in the municipality of Marbella. The nearest beach, Playa de San Pedro, is 1.6 km away in a straight line, with a moderate gradient of 3.3% towards the coast. Puerto Deportivo José Banús sits 3.4 km away, while three golf courses, Magna Marbella, Las Brisas and El Higueral, lie between 2.3 and 3.2 km from the house. Marbella centre is 10 km away.
With three bedrooms, four bathrooms and 334 m² of built area, the layout suits a household that values space per person, including multiple bathrooms for guests or family. The 20 m² terrace, private pool and south-facing orientation support outdoor living for much of the year. An open-plan basement allows flexible use as a gym, playroom or cellar, and the utility room and gated setting add everyday practicality.
Construction was completed in 2018, so this is an existing home rather than an off-plan purchase, there is no construction risk or waiting period. The property is described as key-ready and in excellent condition, with air conditioning, central heating, solar water heating and solar panels already installed. Buyers can occupy or rent it out immediately after completion of the purchase process.
The property offers three bedrooms rather than four or more, which limits capacity for very large households. The kitchen is only partially fitted. The plot is not stated as large garden land; outdoor space centres on the 20 m² terrace and pool area. No information is available about a garage or private parking spaces, and community arrangements within the gated complex may involve shared rules and fees.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to the Marbella area who need three bedrooms, four bathrooms and walking-distance access to a school and healthcare will find the town location practical: one school and a pharmacy cluster lie within two kilometres, and the wider municipality counts 41 primary and 28 secondary schools plus five health centres. Retired buyers or couples who want a manageable but spacious home with a private pool, gated access and no renovation work will also find the profile relevant, the 2018 construction date and key-ready condition remove both waiting time and refurbishment budget from the equation. The fully furnished delivery and basement flexibility suit buyers planning seasonal letting, since the house can be marketed from the first day of ownership. The villa is less obviously suited to households needing more than three bedrooms, to buyers seeking a frontline beach position, the sea is a walk or short drive away rather than across the street, or to those wanting a large private garden plot, as the outdoor offer centres on the terrace and pool zone. The orientation towards views of mountains and countryside rather than the sea will appeal to buyers who prefer green, open sightlines over coastal density. Finally, the position between San Pedro's town centre, Puerto Banús (3.4 km to the marina as the crow flies) and three golf courses within 3.2 km makes the property workable for households whose leisure pattern mixes beach, golf and marina life without wanting to live inside any of those environments.
The house dates from 2018, which places it within the current era of Costa del Sol construction standards: thermally improved glazing, modern insulation practices and contemporary installations are the norm for this vintage. The stated condition is excellent, and the technical package is concrete: air conditioning for the summer months, central heating for the cooler winter period when average temperatures drop to around 12°C, solar water heating and a solar panel installation that reduces grid electricity dependence. The combination of solar panels and solar water heating is a meaningful operational feature at this price level, as water heating and climate control are the two largest energy loads in a villa of this size. Interior finishing is partially documented. The kitchen is described as partially fitted, meaning buyers should expect to complete or adapt the kitchen to their own specification, a common arrangement in resale transactions, and worth budgeting for. The property is sold fully furnished, which shortens the move-in timeline and reduces initial outlay, though the buyer should assess the quality and taste of the included furniture against their own requirements. The open-plan basement is unfinished capacity by design: usable as a gym, playroom or wine cellar, it adds flexible square metres that can be repurposed as household needs change. A utility room supports the practical side of daily living. The staircases and internal circulation appear contemporary, and the four bathrooms against three bedrooms indicate a guest-and-comfort-oriented layout rather than a minimal specification. As with any resale purchase, an independent technical survey is the appropriate instrument to verify installation condition, damp status and the legal state of the solar installations.
The asking price is fixed at €845,000 for the complete property, a single existing home, not a price-list project, so there is no range of units or unit types to choose from. At 334 m² of built area, this corresponds to roughly €2,530 per m², with the villa delivered fully furnished and including a private pool, solar panels, solar water heating, air conditioning and central heating. Completed in 2018, the property is available for immediate transfer once the purchase process concludes. Prospective buyers should verify community fees, annual property tax (IBI) and any transfer costs separately, as these are not stated in the available data.
This is a villa for year-round residential use in an established town rather than an isolated countryside estate. San Pedro de Alcántara combines a functioning Spanish town, with a school, eleven pharmacies, eleven banks and dozens of restaurants and cafés within two kilometres, with direct access to the Costa del Sol's coastal infrastructure. The daily rhythm here is urban in convenience but residential in scale. A morning walk to the beach takes roughly twenty minutes on foot given the 1.6 km direct distance, and the return involves a moderate 3.3% gradient. Shopping, dining and services are reachable without a long drive, and the town's ten public transport lines with fifty stops provide an alternative to the car for local trips. The house itself supports a family routine: three bedrooms, four bathrooms and a basement that can absorb functions, fitness, storage, play, that often compete for space in the main living areas. The south-facing terrace receives sun through the middle of the day, and the private pool extends the usable outdoor season well beyond the five months in which sea temperature exceeds 20°C. Views are varied rather than purely maritime: mountain, country, panoramic, pool, urban and street views are all listed, which suggests the house sits within a built-up residential context with green and mountain sightlines rather than uninterrupted sea frontage. For households that want Marbella-area access without Puerto Banús prices or frontline noise, this position, inside a gated complex, minutes from both beach and golf, defines the practical appeal.
Daily life around this villa takes place in a fully serviced town. Within a two-kilometre radius, the available data counts 27 restaurants, 13 cafés, 11 pharmacies, 11 banks and a school, a density that means most errands are a short walk or drive rather than an expedition. San Pedro de Alcántara functions year-round; with 4,743 housing transactions annually in the area and a tourism base of 52 hotels and nearly 12,800 beds, the town has a resident economy that does not shut down outside the holiday season, while still absorbing summer visitor flows. For leisure, the options diversify quickly. Playa de San Pedro lies 1.6 km away as the crow flies, with the dog-friendly Ventura del Mar beach at 1.9 km and Playa Atalaya at 3.5 km. Golfers can reach Magna Marbella Golf in 2.3 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas in 2.8 km and El Higueral Golf in 3.2 km, three courses within a five-minute drive. Sports facilities cluster closer still: a climbing facility at 0.7 km, the Apolo centre at 1.0 km and the Polideportivo San Pedro municipal sports complex at 1.1 km. Puerto Banús, at 3.4 km straight-line, supplies marina-side dining and shopping, and the two Blue Flag beaches in the wider area (Guadalmina and Venus-Bajadilla) anchor the summer routine. Public transport, ten lines and fifty stops, covers local movement, though a car remains the practical choice for regional trips.
The map shows the villa's position between San Pedro's town centre and the coast, with the beach 1.6 km away as the crow flies and Puerto Banús just beyond. Three golf courses, two marinas and the regional road network frame the immediate surroundings. Distances shown are straight-line; actual road routes may be longer.

San Pedro de Alcántara occupies a strategic middle position on the western Costa del Sol: 10 km from Marbella centre, a few minutes from Puerto Banús, and roughly equidistant, about 48 to 49 km straight-line, from the airports of Málaga and Gibraltar. Estepona lies to the west and Benahavís inland, giving the town a choice of environments within a short radius. On the Costa del Sol as a whole, San Pedro is positioned as the more residential, town-like counterpart to Marbella's glamour and Banús's marina scene, which typically translates into somewhat lower price levels for comparable properties while retaining the same coastal infrastructure.
Accessibility is one of the location's strengths. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport lies roughly 48 km away as the crow flies, and Gibraltar airport is a comparable 49 km, giving the property two airport options, unusual on the Costa del Sol and useful for international travel flexibility. Marbella centre is 10 km away, while Algeciras and Málaga city both sit 57 km distant for occasional trips. Locally, the villa sits between San Pedro's amenities and the coastal infrastructure: beach at 1.6 km, marina at 3.4 km, golf at 2.3–3.2 km and sports centres under 1.2 km, all straight-line distances that translate into short drives. Electric-car owners have Tesla superchargers at Marbella (6.1 km) and Estepona (7.2 km). Within the town, ten bus lines and fifty stops provide a public transport network that covers everyday destinations. A car remains advisable, the moderate 3.3% gradient to the beach is walkable but becomes less attractive with shopping or in summer heat, yet the household is not car-dependent for daily essentials.

The climate data supports genuinely year-round use. The average annual temperature is 19.0°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, warm summers moderated by the coastal position and mild winters that make the central heating a comfort feature rather than a necessity for survival. The swimming season runs five months, during which sea temperature stays at or above 20°C, roughly May through September; the private pool extends this window on either side since it can be used whenever air temperature allows. The villa sits at 53 metres above sea level, low enough to avoid the climb associated with hillside properties, but elevated slightly above the coastal plain, which contributes to the mountain and panoramic views listed among the property's outlook. The 3.3% gradient towards the beach is moderate, meaning walks to the coast are comfortable in both directions. Sun hours in the region support the outdoor orientation of the house: the south-facing terrace and pool area receive midday and afternoon sun across the seasons, and the solar panels convert that exposure into reduced energy costs. Nature options nearby include the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 3.3 km and the Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos at 4.9 km.

Beach access is a defined strength of this position. Playa de San Pedro, the nearest beach at 1.6 km straight-line, is one of the coast's well-serviced urban beaches; Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 1.9 km is a designated dog beach, a rarity on the Costa del Sol; and Playa Atalaya extends the options at 3.5 km. The area counts two Blue Flag beaches, Guadalmina and Venus-Bajadilla, within reach, which certifies water quality and services. Golf is the second recreational pillar: three courses within 3.2 km, including the established Real Club de Golf Las Brisas, one of the region's historic clubs. For organised sport, the Polideportivo San Pedro municipal complex at 1.1 km and the Apolo centre at 1.0 km cover indoor disciplines, while a climbing facility operates at 0.7 km. Water-based recreation is anchored by Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 3.4 km, a full marina with berths, dining and water sports, and the Marbella marina at 9.2 km. Viewpoint walks at 3.3 km and 4.9 km offer inland alternatives for cooler months. Taken together, the recreational offer covers beach days, golf rounds, marina visits and municipal sport within a five-kilometre radius.

Within the western Costa del Sol, this villa's profile is defined by its town position rather than a resort or hillside setting. Compared with new-build apartment projects currently marketed in the wider region, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000), the €845,000 asking price here buys a different product category: a detached villa with a private pool, 334 m² of built area and four bathrooms, rather than an apartment or townhouse. Those projects compete on price entry and communal facilities; this property competes on space, privacy and immediacy of use, being an existing home with no construction phase or delivery risk. Locationally, San Pedro de Alcántara sits between Marbella (10 km) and Estepona, adjacent to Puerto Banús and the Golf Valley courses, which places it closer to the region's high-demand coastal core than Torre del Mar or much of Mijas. The local market shows real turnover, 4,743 housing transactions per year, reflecting an active, liquid area rather than a seasonal micro-market. Median income in the province of €16,450 indicates that this price segment sits well above the local mainstream, meaning resale demand will largely come from international and second-home buyers rather than the domestic market. The two-airport access (Málaga at 48 km, Gibraltar at 49 km, both straight-line) and the year-round service infrastructure of the town, schools, health centres, 50 public transport stops, distinguish the location from more seasonal developments further east or inland, where winter services thin out. For buyers weighing this villa against new-build alternatives, the trade-off is straightforward: a finished, furnished detached home in an established town versus a lower entry price in a project with shared amenities and a future completion date.
