Exquisite mansion where modern elegance meets traditional Andalusian architecture
Asking prices across the agency networks we track, as at 30 July 2026. Bars span the middle half of each peer group; the line marks the median. The first bar covers apartments and houses together, so a house will often sit high on it.
These are the averages across ALL houses in Benahavis that disclose a figure, not this property alone. Where a bill for this one is on file it is shown against that range so you can see where it sits. Bills follow the rateable value and the community budget, so two neighbours can differ; we will get you the actual figures before you commit.
Registered sale prices across Benahavis, October 2025 to April 2026. Real money paid and recorded, not asking prices. The deed count is a measure of our coverage of the register, not of how many homes sold, and deeds register some months after the sale, so this is one pooled figure for the whole window rather than a monthly line.
Three different measures, shown separately because they are not comparable: what sellers ask, what deeds record, and what valuers assess. The last two cover a whole postcode and a whole municipality at every price level, so a prime property will always sit well above them.

About this property
Grand Andalusian Estate with Panoramic Sea Views
Positioned within the exclusive gated enclave of El Madroñal in Benahavís, this substantial estate combines traditional Andalusian architecture with refined contemporary interiors. Oriented south-east and distributed over four levels, the property commands open sea and mountain views while maintaining exceptional privacy within its elevated 5,054 m² plot. Built in 2004 and designed for scale as well as comfort, the residence offers both grand entertaining spaces and carefully structured private quarters.
The villa provides 1,372 m² of built interior space, complemented by 212 m² of terraces. Entry is through an elegant courtyard leading to a double-height foyer that establishes a sense of proportion and architectural symmetry. The main floor includes a formal living room framed by expansive windows, a separate dining room, and a large kitchen with breakfast area and dedicated laundry facilities. Two en-suite bedrooms, an office or library (also adaptable as a bedroom), a guest toilet and an independent auxiliary room complete this level. The upper floor comprises three further en-suite bedrooms, including a principal suite with dressing room and private terrace access.
The lower level, above ground and directly accessible from the pool terrace, is divided into two distinct wings. One wing is dedicated to wellness and includes a heated indoor pool, spa area, gym and massage room. The opposite wing focuses on leisure, incorporating a cinema room, games or entertainment lounge, bar and wine cellar. An elevator connects all floors, and the property benefits from underfloor heating throughout and full air conditioning.
Externally, landscaped gardens frame a large private swimming pool and a covered gazebo with an outdoor kitchen designed for structured alfresco dining. The scale of the plot ensures separation from neighbouring villas, reinforcing the estate’s sense of discretion. A private garage provides parking for two vehicles. Community fees are €317 per month, annual garbage tax is €18, and IBI is €3,716 per year, reflecting the established nature of the urbanisation.
El Madroñal is a 24-hour secured residential area adjacent to La Zagaleta, known for expansive plots, mature greenery and elevated viewpoints. Despite its natural setting, the beach, Puerto Banús, San Pedro Alcántara and Marbella centre are approximately a 10-minute drive away, offering accessibility without compromising tranquillity.
