This detached villa stands on the Golden Mile in Marbella, one of the most established residential addresses on the Costa del Sol. The property offers 512 m² of built space across six bedrooms and six bathrooms, set on an equally sized plot. The villa was completed in 2005 (indicative) and has undergone recent renovation and refurnishing. The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla, lies approximately 1.3 km away, and Marbella town centre, Puerto Banús and surrounding amenities are within short driving distance. The property is listed at €3,000,000 and includes a lift, guest apartment, garage and communal pool access.
Within the Costa del Sol villa market, the Golden Mile occupies a distinct position compared with newer resort corridors. Comparable new-build developments elsewhere on the coast, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000), operate in a different segment: apartment-led products in emerging or mid-market locations. The €3,000,000 asking level of this villa belongs to the established prime segment, where value derives from land position on the Marbella, Puente Romano, Banús axis rather than from new construction premium. Compared with Nueva Andalucía immediately inland, the Golden Mile offers flatter terrain and closer beach access but generally smaller plots; compared with Sierra Blanca and Cascada de Camoján above it, it trades hillside views and seclusion for walkability and service proximity. Against Los Monteros and the eastern Marbella beachside, the western Golden Mile offers more mature hotel and dining infrastructure, 52 hotels and roughly 12,800 beds recorded in the vicinity, and higher year-round occupancy of amenities. Practical differences matter here: the supermarket at 73 metres and hospital at 642 metres are unusual for villa districts, while the 512 m² plot is modest for the segment. The recorded communal pool access and the lift rental clause (€2,000/month in letting terms) are items that distinguish this listing structurally from owner-everything villas nearby. Buyers comparing across the region should weigh the walkable urban-coastal profile of this location against the larger plots and private pools available further inland at similar budgets in Nueva Andalucía, La Zagaleta or El Madroñal.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in the Capellanía area of the Golden Mile, a residential corridor between Marbella centre and Puerto Banús. Urban amenities including a supermarket (73 m), pharmacy (211 m) and hospital (642 m) are within walking distance. The location combines a tranquil residential setting with proximity to hotels, beach clubs and restaurant districts. Straight-line distance to Málaga airport is approximately 38 km.
The property functions as a family residence or long-term base for buyers requiring six bedrooms and six bathrooms. Functional features include a fitted kitchen, fitted wardrobes, a guest apartment, utility room, storage room, covered terraces and a lift. Air conditioning and a fireplace provide year-round climate control. South-east orientation places morning and midday sun on the main living spaces.
Although listed with a 'new construction' condition label, the villa was completed in 2005 (indicative) and has since been renovated and refurnished. The property is turnkey, with no construction phase remaining. Buyers should verify the exact renovation scope and completion documentation with the vendor. No delivery wait applies; the property can be occupied subject to transaction timing.
The plot size equals the built surface (512 m²), which limits garden scale relative to other Golden Mile villas. Pool access is communal rather than fully private in the recorded data. The listing references rental pricing terms (€12,000/month without lift), which may indicate a mixed sale/letting arrangement requiring clarification. No energy certificate rating is recorded. Elevator terms carry a separate monthly fee.
The property suits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to Marbella permanently would use the six bedrooms, the nearby international schools and the walking-distance amenities; the lift and guest apartment support multi-generational arrangements or regular visitors. A buyer seeking a Mediterranean second home with hotel-grade surroundings, Puente Romano and Marbella centre within minutes, would find the location and turnkey condition relevant, since no renovation project follows the purchase. Households requiring medical proximity benefit from the 642 m hospital distance, a practical consideration for older buyers or those with ongoing care needs. The property fits buyers who value walkability: supermarket, pharmacy, cafés and public transport stops are nearby, reducing car dependency for daily life. It fits less well for buyers seeking a large private plot with extensive grounds, since the plot equals the built surface, or those wanting a fully private pool, the recorded pool access is communal. Buyers focused on golf-course living would note the nearest courses lie 8, 11 km away, making this an urban-coastal base rather than a golf resort property. The rental option (€12,000, 14,000 per month) also makes the property relevant to corporate or executive tenants on multi-year assignments in Marbella.
The villa has been renovated with contemporary materials, evidenced by the photographic record: a kitchen with an island and marble-finish surfaces, living areas with large glazing and modern furnishing, bedrooms with contemporary fitted wardrobes and natural light, and a patio with dining facilities. Technical features recorded in the property data include a lift serving the floors, air conditioning, a fireplace, fitted wardrobes throughout, a covered terrace, a guest apartment, a utility room and a storage room. The garage and private driveway provide secure parking. Views are recorded towards the sea, mountains, garden and pool, with a panoramic classification. The orientation is south-east. Built in 2005 (indicative) and subsequently renovated, the construction sits in a mature phase where maintenance history becomes a due-diligence item: buyers should request records on the roof, pool systems, air conditioning units, glazing and the lift installation, including its service contract and the separate €2,000 monthly fee structure mentioned in the listing. No energy efficiency certificate rating is recorded in the available data, so the thermal performance of the building envelope and the insulation standard of the 2005 construction should be verified directly. The separate lift rental clause (€12,000 without, €14,000 with lift in the letting terms) suggests the lift may be leased equipment rather than owned outright, a point requiring legal clarification.
The villa is listed at €3,000,000 for sale. For context, the listing also carries rental terms of €12,000 per month without the lift and €14,000 with it, suggesting the owner is open to both a sale and a long-term letting arrangement. Comparable new-build projects elsewhere on the Costa del Sol (Torre del Mar, Mijas, Estepona) start between €205,000 and €270,000, but these are apartments in different market segments; the €3 million level reflects the Golden Mile villa segment, where plot location and condition drive valuation. Buyers should verify whether furniture, lift terms and any letting conditions are included in the sale price.
Daily life at this villa follows an urban residential rhythm. The Capellanía enclave sits within the Golden Mile, meaning the surrounding streets are primarily residential while shops, services and hospitality remain on foot or a short drive away. The supermarket at 73 metres and pharmacy at 211 metres make routine errands practical without a car, and the hospital at 642 metres is an unusual level of medical proximity for a villa district. The south-east orientation means the terraces receive morning sun, with shade developing later in the day, relevant for breakfast and morning use of the outdoor spaces. The pool and landscaped garden support outdoor living during the warmer months, while the fireplace and air conditioning cover seasonal variation. The lift connects the floors, which matters in a 512 m² property and for households with older members or guests. Multiple terraces and chill-out areas face towards mountain and sea views, giving outdoor space at different times of day. Evenings tend towards the local restaurant scene and beach clubs within a short drive, and Marbella old town offers year-round cultural and dining activity. The area does not empty outside summer: the Golden Mile is a permanent residential zone with international schools nearby, including SWANS and the British School, so the social calendar continues through winter. Traffic on the N-340/A-7 corridor can be busy in July and August, which affects short journeys towards Puerto Banús at peak times.
The immediate surroundings are urban and well-serviced. Within a two-kilometre radius, the data records 130 restaurants, 28 pharmacies, 20 banks and 24 cafés, meaning daily and social needs are met locally. Health infrastructure includes five health centres in the radius and a hospital at 642 metres. Education coverage is substantial: 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the wider area, with SWANS and the British School cited nearby by the listing and the British International School at 3.0 km and the English International College at 7.7 km. Public transport comprises 11 lines with 50 stops in the vicinity, so travel to Marbella centre and along the coast is possible without a car, though most Golden Mile residents use private vehicles. An EV charging point lies at 434 metres, plus a Tesla Supercharger at 4.3 km. Sports facilities include municipal swimming pools (0.9, 1.0 km) and several sports centres under one kilometre. Marinas at 1.4, 1.5 km (Marina la Bajadilla, Marina Marbella, Puerto Pesquero) support nautical activities. Tourism infrastructure is significant, 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds in the area, which translates into year-round hospitality but also seasonal visitor pressure in summer months.
The map shows the villa's position in the Capellanía pocket of the Golden Mile, between Marbella centre and Puerto Banús. Note the cluster of daily amenities within a few hundred metres and the beach line 1.3 km to the south, with the Sierra Blanca foothills rising behind the property to the north.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
The Golden Mile is the established coastal corridor linking Marbella's historic centre to Puerto Banús, historically the address of the area's hotel landmarks (Marbella Club, Puente Romano) and mature villa stock. Within the region, it sits between the denser apartment districts of Marbella east and the port-side commercial environment of Banús to the west. Positioned roughly 38 km from Málaga airport and 59 km from Gibraltar, it forms the central anchor of the western Costa del Sol, with Estepona and Sotogrande further west and Benalmádena and Fuengirola to the east.
The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla, lies 1.3 km from the property, roughly a 15, 20 minute walk; Playa de Casablanca is 3.2 km and Playa de Nagüeles 3.9 km. Marbella town and Puerto Banús are a short drive, and Puente Romano Hotel is minutes away by car. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) lies approximately 38 km straight-line, around 40, 45 minutes by road depending on traffic, with Gibraltar Airport (GIB) at roughly 59 km straight-line for UK-route options. Golf courses within reach include Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (8.1 km), Magna Marbella Golf (8.9 km) and the Málaga courses further afield (8.2, 11 km). The supermarket at 73 metres, pharmacy at 211 metres and hospital at 642 metres place core services effectively at the doorstep.

The location sits at approximately 81 metres above sea level with a moderate slope of 4.9% towards the beach, meaning the walk to the coast involves a gentle but noticeable gradient, manageable on foot, relevant for cyclists and those with mobility considerations. Historical climate data records around 3,851 sunshine hours per year and an average annual temperature of 18.3°C, figures consistent with the Marbella microclimate, which the Sierra Blanca mountains shelter from northern winds. The sea remains at or above 20°C for approximately four months of the year, defining a summer swimming season roughly from June to September, although sea bathing outside this window is common among residents. The elevation and south-east orientation give the terraces morning sun with mountain views towards the Sierra. Viewpoints such as Mirador de los Gitanos (2.5 km) and Mirador de Ojén (4.8 km) provide access to walking and scenic drives in the hinterland.
