LUXURY PRIVATE ESTATE FOR SALE IN ISTÁN, MARBELLA

Rare Istán Lake Estate | Luxury Villa Investment & Turnkey Development Opportunity on the Costa del Sol

A truly unique and exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a private luxury estate overlooking Istán Lake, Marbella and the Mediterranean Sea, set within one of the most spectacular natural environments on the Costa del Sol.

Located in Istán, above Marbella, this extraordinary estate offers an exceptional combination of privacy, scale, panoramic views, natural beauty and proximity to the internationally renowned Marbella Golden Mile. With direct road access, the Golden Mile can be reached in approximately 15 minutes, placing the finest beaches, restaurants, golf courses, luxury hotels and lifestyle amenities of Marbella and Puerto Banús within easy reach.

Set on a secluded peninsula extending into the Embalse de la Concepción, also known as Istán Lake, the property represents an exceptionally rare luxury real estate investment opportunity in Marbella. Surrounded by water, mountains and mature Mediterranean vegetation, the estate offers a level of privacy and tranquillity that is increasingly difficult to find so close to Marbella.

From its privileged south-west orientation, the property enjoys spectacular panoramic views across Istán Lake and the surrounding Sierra de las Nieves mountain landscape, extending towards the Mediterranean Sea, Gibraltar and North Africa on clear days. The combination of lake, mountain and sea views creates a truly extraordinary setting for a private luxury residence.

AN EXCLUSIVE ESTATE ABOVE MARBELLA

The existing property comprises approximately 877.67 m² of built space arranged over two floors, together with approximately 717.73 m² of terraces and a 62.59 m² swimming pool. The villa is positioned on an impressive private plot of approximately 25,456.16 m², forming part of an exceptional estate extending to approximately 129,127.16 m² across seven adjoining plots.

This remarkable scale provides an extraordinary degree of privacy and opens the door to the creation of a truly exceptional private estate near Marbella.

The existing residence is offered as a comprehensive renovation opportunity, providing an investor, developer or private buyer with the possibility to completely transform the property into a contemporary architectural masterpiece.

PROPOSED LUXURY VILLA DESIGN AND TURNKEY PROJECT

A sophisticated proposed architectural design has been created to demonstrate the property's full potential. The architectural renders illustrate a contemporary luxury villa designed specifically around the exceptional landscape, views and south-west orientation.

The proposed residence features six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, together with two guest cloakrooms, expansive living and entertaining areas, a private gym, spa and extensive indoor and outdoor spaces. Generous covered and open terraces are designed to maximise the spectacular lake, mountain and Mediterranean views while creating seamless connections between the interior and exterior living spaces.

For investors seeking a more streamlined acquisition and development process, the estate can also be offered as a turnkey luxury villa project. The proposed design shown in the architectural renders can form the basis of a complete project through to the finished residence, allowing the future owner to realise the full vision of this exceptional property.

Project plans, architectural drawings, renders, specifications and turnkey project costs are available upon request. Please enquire for the complete project information and to discuss the turnkey development opportunity.

This turnkey option makes the property particularly attractive to international investors and buyers looking for a luxury villa investment in Marbella without having to establish the architectural concept from the beginning. It offers the possibility of acquiring an extraordinary location together with a clearly defined vision for its transformation into a world-class private residence.

A PRIVATE PENINSULA ON ISTÁN LAKE

The defining characteristic of this estate is its extraordinary relationship with the water. The land extends into the reservoir to create a secluded peninsula, surrounded by the natural beauty of Istán Lake and the mountains.

A private lakeside road leads through the estate, while mature pine and palm trees, established Mediterranean vegetation, traditional stone walls and the dramatic surrounding landscape create an atmosphere of complete seclusion.

The estate also benefits from a second swimming pool located elsewhere on the grounds, further enhancing its potential to become a private resort-style residence centred around wellness, entertaining, relaxation and outdoor living.

Few luxury properties near Marbella can offer such a combination of private land, lake frontage, mountain scenery, Mediterranean views and proximity to the coast.

ESTABLISHED LICENCE AND RENOVATION POTENTIAL

The existing villa benefits from a First Occupancy Licence granted in July 1997, together with a complete licensing history.

The property therefore presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire an established residence and undertake a comprehensive luxury renovation, renewing the architecture, installations, interiors and finishes to create a highly individual contemporary estate.

For the right investor, the combination of an existing villa, substantial landholding, established licensing history, proposed architectural concept and turnkey development option creates a compelling Costa del Sol property investment opportunity.

CLOSE TO MARBELLA, PUERTO BANÚS AND THE GOLDEN MILE

Despite its private mountain and lakeside setting, the estate is remarkably well connected to the Costa del Sol.

The Marbella Golden Mile is approximately 15 minutes away, Puerto Banús and San Pedro de Alcántara are approximately 15 minutes away, Marbella Centre approximately 20 minutes, and Málaga International Airport approximately 45 minutes by car.

This exceptional location allows residents to enjoy the best of both worlds: the privacy and tranquillity of a spectacular natural estate in Istán, combined with immediate access to the sophisticated lifestyle of Marbella, Puerto Banús and the Costa del Sol.

The region's renowned beaches, championship golf courses, Michelin-starred and international restaurants, luxury hotels, designer boutiques and exclusive marinas are all within easy reach.

A RARE MARBELLA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT
