This detached villa stands on a corner plot of 1,387 m² in Sotogrande Costa, one of the most established residential areas on the Cádiz coast. The property offers 405 m² of living space arranged over two floors, with six bedrooms, five bathrooms and a separate guest WC. A self-contained guest annexe adds flexibility for visiting family or rental use. The villa includes a private swimming pool, private garden and private parking. Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande lies roughly 300 metres away as the crow flies, and Puerto de Sotogrande marina is about 2.2 km from the property. The asking price is fixed at €1,185,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Sotogrande Costa is a low-density residential zone between the golf courses and the coast, within the municipality of San Roque in Cádiz province. Daily services are close at hand: a supermarket at 1.7 km, a pharmacy at 1.2 km and a hospital at 10 km, all straight-line distances. The nearest beach, Playa de La Alcaidesa, sits 4.8 km away, while Gibraltar and the Mediterranean mark the southern edge of the area.
The villa addresses the need for space and privacy: six bedrooms, five bathrooms and a separate guest annexe across two floors. Living areas open onto a terrace and a private pool set within a walled private garden. Private parking is included on the plot. For households that regularly host visitors or want independent space for family members, the layout provides clearly separated accommodation without extending the main residence.
This is an existing home, not a new-build project. Construction was completed in 1970 and the property is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. Buyers should expect a building of its period rather than contemporary specifications; any modernisation, where desired, would be at the new owner's initiative and cost. Delivery dates and handover are therefore not applicable, the transfer follows the standard purchase process for a resale property in Spain.
The database lists no energy performance details, no community facilities and no sea views guaranteed beyond a photograph reference. The villa has private parking but no garage specification is recorded. Built in 1970, the property predates current building regulations, and no information on seismic, insulation or installation standards is available in the source data. Public transport is limited to a single stop in the area, so most journeys depend on private vehicles or taxis.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A large or multi-generational family needing six bedrooms and five bathrooms will find the two-storey layout with a separate annexe more practical than most contemporary builds, which tend to offer three or four bedrooms. Households that regularly receive guests for extended stays benefit from the independent accommodation without converting a bedroom. Buyers seeking a permanent residence in Sotogrande who value established gardens, mature planting and immediate occupancy over new-build warranties will find the key-ready status relevant, there is no waiting period for construction. Golf players measure distances here in courses rather than kilometres: Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande at 0.3 km, La Cañada at 2.5 km, Valderrama at 3.4 km and La Reserva at 3.7 km place the villa within a short drive of four courses. The property is less obvious for buyers wanting a lock-up-and-leave apartment with communal maintenance, since a 1,387 m² plot with a pool requires year-round upkeep. Buyers focused purely on modern energy efficiency should note the 1970 construction date and factor potential renovation into their calculations. Households with children have Sotogrande International School within about 4.1 to 4.8 km, and the Santa María Polo Club at 1.8 km hosts one of Europe's most established polo calendars each summer.
The source data contains no specification of materials, brands or technical installations, so the finishing level cannot be documented in detail. What is established: the property was built in 1970, extends over two floors plus a guest annexe, and totals 405 m² of living area. Photography shows a dining room connected visually to the kitchen, a bedroom with a balcony oriented towards the sea, and an outdoor pool area with terraced seating. For a property of this age, buyers typically assess several elements during a survey: the condition of the roof and structure, the state of electrical and plumbing installations, which in 1970-built Andalusian homes rarely meet current standards without updating, window glazing and insulation levels, and the age of the pool installation and its filtration system. No energy performance certificate details are recorded in the available data. The guest annexe, as a separate structure, may have its own history regarding permits and construction dates, which a notary check would normally cover. Buyers should also verify the legal status of the pool, terraces and any extensions against the cadastral records, since additions made over five decades sometimes diverge from registered plans. A structural survey by an independent architect (peritaje) is standard practice for resale villas of this scale in Spain and typically costs a few hundred euros, a modest figure relative to the purchase price. The property is sold key-ready, in its existing condition, without renovation obligations or developer warranties.
The asking price is fixed at €1,185,000 for the complete property, villa, guest annexe, private pool, private garden of 1,387 m² and private parking. As a resale home, there is no price list or unit variation; the price applies to this single property in its current condition. At roughly €2,926 per m² of living area, the property sits above the from-prices of new-build developments in the wider Sotogrande area (€341,000 to €638,000), which reflects the substantially larger plot and built area rather than a like-for-like comparison. Availability is immediate, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process. Buyers should budget separately for transfer tax, notary and registry costs typical for a resale in Andalusia.
Daily life in this villa revolves around its outdoor spaces as much as its interiors. The corner plot of 1,387 m² provides garden areas on two sides, with a private pool and adjacent terraces for seating, dining and games, the photographs show a pool with a slide and a ping-pong table, indicating the garden is set up for family use rather than as a purely ornamental space. Inside, the ground floor connects the living areas to the terrace through wide openings, so the boundary between inside and outside is a sliding door rather than a corridor. With 405 m² over two floors, each bedroom retains generous proportions, and the separate guest annexe allows visitors, staff or older children to stay independently. The rhythm of the area is shaped by season: during the golf season and summer months, Sotogrande Costa fills with international residents and the polo club at 1.8 km is in full swing; in winter, the neighbourhood quietens considerably and some facilities reduce their hours. The villa's location on a corner plot gives it two street frontages, which affects both light exposure and privacy relative to neighbouring properties. Practical errands are manageable: the supermarket at 1.7 km and pharmacy at 1.2 km fall within a short drive or a longer walk, while the marina at 2.2 km concentrates restaurants and cafés. A car is convenient but not essential for every trip; the single bus stop in the area limits car-free mobility.
The immediate surroundings of Sotogrande Costa are defined by low-rise villas, pine and cork oak stands, and the fairways of the Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande, which begins roughly 300 metres away as the crow flies. The area sits at 142 metres above sea level, on gently sloping terrain that rises from the coast inland, enough elevation for sea views from upper floors and balconies, as the photography indicates, without steep access roads. Daily provisions require a short drive: supermarket at 1.7 km, pharmacy at 1.2 km, and within two kilometres there are three restaurants, six cafés, two banks, two pharmacies and two dentists. Healthcare beyond the pharmacy is at the hospital 10 km away. Puerto de Sotogrande, at 2.2 km, functions as the social centre of the area, a marina quarter with restaurants, chandleries and a sailing club. The Santa María Polo Club and a municipal sports centre both sit at 1.8 km. Public transport consists of a single stop, which in practice means that a car covers most journeys; the area intelligence notes a car is convenient but not essential for everything. Noise levels remain low outside the summer polo season, and the resident population of about 11,700 in the wider area swells visibly in July and August.

Sotogrande Costa occupies the western end of the Costa del Sol, on the Cádiz side of the provincial border with Málaga, within the municipality of San Roque. It sits between Gibraltar to the south and the coastal development of La Alcaidesa to the north-east. The location is closer to Cádiz province's Atlantic-influenced coast than to the dense resort strip of Marbella and Estepona, which shapes both the landscape, greener, with mature trees, and the property market, which leans towards villas and golf real estate rather than apartment blocks. Regional cities are far: Sevilla at 686 km and Córdoba at 677 km straight-line are weekend destinations rather than day trips.
Distances below are straight-line (as the crow flies); road distances are longer. Beaches: Playa de La Alcaidesa at 4.8 km, Playa de la Chullera at 8.1 km and Playa de La Atunara at 8.5 km. The nearest airport listed at 14 km is the regional reference airport; for long-haul connections, Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) lies approximately 809 km away by air and Gibraltar (GIB) approximately 834 km by straight-line measure from the regional reference point, in practice, Gibraltar airport is under half an hour by road from Sotogrande and Malaga about 1.5 hours by car, though these road times are not in the source data. Golf: Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande at 0.3 km, La Cañada at 2.5 km, Valderrama at 3.4 km and La Reserva at 3.7 km. Schools: Sotogrande International School campuses at 4.1 and 4.8 km. An IONITY fast-charging station for electric vehicles sits 2.0 km away. Public transport is limited to one stop in the area; a private car covers the supermarket (1.7 km), hospital (10 km) and marina (2.2 km) efficiently.

The climate data for the area records an average annual temperature of 13.4°C with monthly averages ranging from 11°C in the coldest months to 26°C in summer, and 3,230 sunshine hours per year, a figure comparable with the sunniest parts of southern Spain. In practical terms, this supports outdoor use of the pool and terraces from late spring through early autumn, roughly May to October, with midday summer heat pushing daily life towards shaded terraces and evening meals outside. The elevation of 142 metres gives the site slightly cooler evenings than sea-level locations directly on the beach. The terrain slopes gently; the villa's corner position on the plot affects orientation and light. Rainfall concentrates in autumn and winter months, and the surrounding landscape, cork oaks and pine, stays green through most of the year, unlike the drier coastal strip further east. Local life follows 32 public holidays per year, many in the spring fair season, which noticeably alters the rhythm of shops and services in nearby San Roque.

The nearest beach, Playa de La Alcaidesa, lies 4.8 km away as the crow flies, a long, open stretch of dark sand backed by the golf courses, generally quieter than the Costa del Sol beaches further east. Playa de la Chullera (8.1 km) sits at the mouth of a river with rocky coves either side, and Playa de La Atunara (8.5 km) adjoins the fishing quarter of La Línea. The source data does not specify Blue Flag status for these beaches. Recreation in Sotogrande is dominated by golf: four courses within 3.7 km include Valderrama, host of the 1997 Ryder Cup and one of Europe's most recognised courses, plus Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande, La Cañada and La Reserva. The Santa María Polo Club at 1.8 km runs an international tournament each summer that draws spectators from across the region. Puerto de Sotogrande (2.2 km) offers berths, sailing schools and waterfront dining. For other sports, Complejo Deportivo Zona Norte at 1.8 km provides municipal facilities, and the area's network of quiet roads is used year-round by cyclists.

Within the wider Sotogrande catchment, the supply divides into new-build apartment and townhouse developments and established villa stock. New-build projects currently listed include Altara Alcaidesa (from €341,000), Atria in Sotogrande (from €423,000) and Adel San Roque (from €638,000). These from-prices apply to smaller units, typically apartments or townhouses, and are not directly comparable to this villa's fixed price of €1,185,000, which buys 405 m² of built space on a 1,387 m² private plot. The relevant trade-off for buyers is scale and land versus specification and warranty. New-build buyers receive current building regulations compliance, developer guarantees and modern energy standards; villa buyers in Sotogrande Costa receive substantially more space, mature gardens and a location embedded in the original 1960s, 70s master plan of Sotogrande, where plots were laid out around the golf course rather than packed around it. Price per square metre illustrates the gap: at €1,185,000 for 405 m², this property works out at roughly €2,926 per m², whereas the new-build from-prices, applied to typical 80–120 m² units, often exceed €4,000 per m². Geographically, Sotogrande also differs from the eastern Costa del Sol: the Cádiz side is greener, lower in density and centred on golf, polo and the marina rather than on high-rise beachfront. The nearest comparable villa markets are La Alcaidesa to the north-east and the Estepona hills over an hour east by road. Buyers weighing this villa against new-build alternatives should also factor renovation potential: properties of this era in Sotogrande have seen values hold where plots are large and locations adjoin the golf courses, both of which apply here. Straight-line distances in this comparison follow the source data throughout.
