The plot comes with an approved architectural project for an impressive six-bedroom luxury villa featuring 713 m2 of interior living space, 522 m2 of terraces, panoramic mountain and countryside views, a private wellness area, and a covered four-car garage.

Set approximately 400 metres above sea level, the elevated plot enjoys a privileged south-facing orientation, abundant natural light, exceptional privacy, and uninterrupted views across the surrounding hills and protected countryside. Surrounded by mature cork oaks, pine trees, and Mediterranean vegetation, the setting combines the tranquillity of nature with the security and exclusivity associated with El Madroñal, Benahavís.

Located directly opposite the prestigious La Zagaleta estate, El Madroñal is internationally recognised as one of the most desirable residential areas in the Benahavís municipality. Its combination of secure gated living, generous plots, luxury villas, natural surroundings, and proximity to Marbella makes it particularly attractive to international buyers seeking a private Costa del Sol luxury property.

Approved Contemporary Villa Project by Santiago Lloreda Márquez

The approved villa project has been designed by renowned architect Santiago Lloreda Márquez, with a contemporary architectural concept that combines clean lines, timeless elegance, functionality, and sophisticated Mediterranean living.

Distributed across three carefully considered levels, the proposed villa has been designed to maximise natural light, privacy, panoramic views, and the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Expansive living areas, floor-to-ceiling glazing, generous terraces, and carefully positioned openings allow the architecture to naturally respond to the south-facing orientation and landscape surrounding.

The result is a modern family residence designed around light, space, privacy, and outdoor living.

Six-Bedroom Luxury Villa with Exceptional Living Spaces

The proposed residence includes six spacious en-suite bedrooms, five additional bathrooms, and a guest toilet, providing generous accommodation for both residents and guests.

The open-plan living and dining areas are designed to flow seamlessly onto the expansive outdoor terraces, creating versatile spaces for entertaining, al fresco dining, relaxing, and enjoying the Mediterranean climate throughout the year.

Large floor-to-ceiling windows will flood the interiors with natural light while framing the surrounding countryside and mountain scenery. The combination of substantial interior volumes and extensive outdoor areas creates a sophisticated contemporary home with a strong connection to its natural surroundings.

Private Wellness Area and 522 m2 of Terraces

Wellness is an integral part of the villa concept. The project includes a private spa and wellness area with a sauna and Turkish bath, providing residents with a dedicated environment for relaxation and rejuvenation.

The villa also benefits from an impressive 522 m2 of terraces, offering multiple outdoor living and entertaining areas. These spaces have been carefully incorporated into the architectural design to maximise privacy, views, sunlight, and year-round outdoor living.

From morning coffee overlooking the hills to sunset entertaining with family and friends, the terraces are designed to become a natural extension of the interior living spaces.

Four-Car Garage and Practical Luxury

Beyond its striking architecture and lifestyle features, the villa has been designed with everyday practicality in mind. A covered four-car garage provides secure parking and convenient direct access to the residence.

Extensive storage and service areas are integrated into the design, allowing the property to function equally well as a permanent family residence, a second home, or an exclusive luxury holiday retreat in Benahavís.

El Madroñal, Benahavís – Privacy, Security and Nature

El Madroñal is one of the most exclusive gated residential communities in the Benahavís area. Controlled access and 24-hour security provide residents with a high level of privacy and peace of mind, while the estate's large individual plots and mature Mediterranean landscaping create a low-density residential environment.

One of the community's defining characteristics is its natural setting. Surrounded by cork oak forests, pine trees, olive groves, and protected woodland, El Madroñal offers direct access to scenic hiking and cycling routes.

Its elevated position also provides a peaceful atmosphere and cooler summer conditions while remaining within easy reach of Marbella, Puerto Banus, San Pedro Alcántara, Estepona, and the wider Costa del Sol.

Close to Marbella, Golf Courses and International Schools

Despite its private and secluded setting, the plot is conveniently located for many of the Costa del Sol's most sought-after amenities.

The picturesque village of Benahavís, widely known for its gastronomic scene, is just a short drive away, with renowned restaurants including Los Abanicos, Amanhavis, and Restaurante Rufino.

Nearby San Pedro Alcántara provides supermarkets, cafés, boutique shopping, everyday services, and additional dining options, while Marbella and Puerto Banus offer an extensive selection of luxury shopping, restaurants, beach clubs, and international amenities.

Golf enthusiasts are particularly well positioned, with prestigious courses including La Quinta Golf & Country Club, Los Arqueros Golf, Marbella Club Golf Resort, and Los Flamingos Golf all within easy reach.

Families benefit from access to several established international schools, including Aloha College, Laude San Pedro International College, Atalaya International School, and Swans International School.

Excellent connections via the A-7 and AP-7 provide convenient access to Marbella, Puerto Banus, Estepona, the beaches of the Costa del Sol, and Málaga International Airport.

    Holli provided us with first rate services for buying an apartment in Malaga, Spain. Not only does she possess an intimate knowledge of the area, her advice was thoughtful and timely. As Canadian buyers, Holli provided detailed information on how the the Spanish real estate system operates which is very different than home. I simply cannot imagine how we would have navigated our purchase without Hollli's input and advice. I highly recommend BeLuxe Properties to any real estate purchaser from Canada.

    It is always a pleasure to work with Ryan (BeLuxe Properties), an exceptional real estate agent. Highly professional, extremely dedicated and always willing to go and do far more than is required. He combines deep knowledge with an exceptional level of commitment and personal attention. Always available and fully involved in every detail of the process. It is clear that he truly enjoys and believes in what he does. I would gladly recommend him.

    Absolutely blown away by our experience in finding a holiday home with Ryan. He is truly amazing at his job, he works incredibly hard to make sure he finds the perfect properties to show you. His communication is incredible, he is always available to chat and to answer any questions. We were really unsure what exactly we wanted from our holiday home and within a few days Ryan had helped us narrow it down to just a couple of areas that were truly perfect for us, and helped us work out what our absolute “must haves” were and where we could make compromises! I love the personal touch he brings to the job and how patient and considerate he is in knowing how big a decision it is. He also recommended some amazing lawyers and other professionals to us along the way which is invaluable to us. I couldn’t recommend Ryan highly enough, we would never buy a holiday home on the Costa del Sol with anyone else and we would recommend him with complete confidence to anyone. Thank you so much Ryan!

    This is to express our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to Holli for not only her professional expertise, extreme knowledge, wise guidance and genuine care, but her constant effort and diligence in working with us to secure our new home. We traveled to Malaga from the States in March for a week of travel with Holli along the Costa Del Sol. I had established a start to working with Holli via email months prior. From the moment of introduction I felt a sense of connection, confidence and knew we were in good hands. Holli began collecting information on exactly our interests, type of home we were interested in, lifestyle and budget. She assisted us with setting our travel itinerary, making wonderful recommendations for lodging and had our entire week carefully and thoughtfully laid out. For five consecutive days we looked at properties thoughtfully curated to our needs and wants. On the last day, we knew we walked into our beautiful apartment in the charming old town of Estepona. Holli’s work did not stop there. She aligned us with all of the like minded and skilled colleagues she works with to continue to assist us in the transaction. A Spanish Lawyer to a Currency Exchange Broker, both of which have made this absolutely effortless for us and have given us a total peace of mind. It is quite rare in todays world to find someone who gives it their all, not only in their work professionally, but also personally. I would refer Holli to anyone thinking about or looking to make this step. It has truly been an amazing and wonderful, stress free and fun experience. We look so forward to our new life in Estepona and in addition to having a dear new friend in Holli. Warmly, Lisa and Greg

    Outstanding service I first met Ryan at a house we were viewing, where he was the seller’s agent. Before we had time to make a decision, he had already sold the place. But we thought he seemed like a great agent, so we asked him to be our buyer’s agent instead – and that turned out to be an understatement. He’s not just a good agent – he’s an excellent one. For over a year, Ryan has been helping us find the perfect home – and it wasn’t an easy task, since we had a long list of specific requirements and a limited budget. But Ryan never gave up, and we’ve just bought our dream house in Marbella – the one he found for us. Throughout the process, Ryan has again and again gone the extra mile for us. He’s been incredibly helpful, always quick to answer our many questions, keeping us updated and in the loop, and offering recommendations for everything from mortgage advisors and lawyers to contractors and car dealers – all of which made us feel safe during such a big investment in a market we didn’t know that well. On top of being helpful and professional, Ryan is also simply a pleasure to be around – which makes all the house viewings a much nicer experience. I can honestly give my highest recommendation to Ryan and the whole team at Belux Properties.
