Nestled on the edge of the Benahavís, an authentic mountain village just seven kilometers from the coast, is this private parcel of land with oodles of potential – commercial and personal. On the market for €2.65 million, there are currently two properties on the plot, and the chance to make renovations and enhancements.
Within easy walking distance of the village center, the estate is the ideal spot for entertaining friends, and would work equally well as a peaceful family holiday haven.
Picturesque Benahavís
Just half an hour from Marbella and 20 minutes from Puerto Banús, Benahavís offers a relaxed pace of life and is both a food and golf destination.
Known as the “dining room of the Costa del Sol”, the unspoiled village is home to restaurants like Los Abanicos, Amanhavis, and Escuela Hostelería, and slightly further afield are a handful of Michelin-starred eateries.
Meanwhile, La Zagaleta, Los Arqueros, Los Barrancos and La Quinta are just a few golf courses that are close by in terms of playing a round. And Real Las Brisas – ranked fourth best in Southern Spain – is a quick 20-minute drive away.
Boasting unrivaled mountain and sea vistas, the scenic municipality is ideally located on the southern face of the Serrania de Ronda range and traversed by the Guadalmina, Guadaiza, and Guadalmanza Rivers. Hikers and cyclists will be in their element, exploring the varied landscape.
And beach lovers? The sandy stretches of Guadalmansa, Sol Villacana, Saladillo, and Guadalmina are reachable within 15 minutes.
For international schools, several options are within a 20-minute car journey: Calpe, The British International School of Marbella, International School Estepona, and Laude San Pedro International College.
Andalucían-style villas on a sizable plot
Head in through the private entrance and be greeted by two houses – one has five bedrooms, and the other has four. In total, there’s 5,952 square feet of interior space and tons of potential to reimagine the estate, should the next owner wish.
Built using local materials and tiles, the properties are currently owned by a sculptor with an eye for detail and a keen sense of style. Step inside the primary home and take in the large airy living room, high ceilings, characterful wooden beams, eclectic mix of traditional and modern pieces, and original paintings.
The second residence requires finishing touches – perfect for someone looking to put their stamp on the place.
Outside, admire the shaded barbecue terrace – suitable for lounging and dining – and the generously sized pool set within an abundance of mature gardens, lawns, and woodland.
Surrounded by nature and yet just a five-minute stroll from the center of Benahavís with all its amenities, this is a superb investment or second home opportunity.
