Villa | El Madroñal | Benahavís
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
The plot runs to more than three thousand square metres, which in El Madroñal means the house sits inside its own piece of forest rather than beside a neighbour’s fence.
El Madroñal is a gated estate on the wooded slopes above Benahavís, laid out in the nineteen eighties across roughly two hundred and fifty large parcels at around four hundred metres of altitude. The founding brief was to keep the landscape and build sparingly into it, and that has held: pine, olive and cork oak still dominate, houses are screened from one another, and the internal roads are quiet enough that walking them is a pleasure rather than a hazard. Entry is through one manned gate, staffed day and night. The altitude gives noticeably cooler evenings than the coast in high summer, and the Sierra de las Nieves begins immediately beyond the boundary, so the walking and cycling are exceptional.
The house is newly built and arranged across three levels, with the main floor given over to a continuous living, dining and kitchen space that opens the full width onto the terrace. Glazing runs floor to ceiling on the south elevation, so the room reads as covered outdoor space for most of the year. Materials are restrained and consistent, and the detailing is quiet rather than showy.
Five bedroom suites are distributed for privacy, each with its own bathroom, and there are seven bathrooms in total across the house. A lift serves every level, which matters on a sloping plot. The lower floor holds the leisure accommodation and the garage, which takes five cars.
The garden has been planted to mature rather than to impress immediately, and the pool sits at the terrace edge with the valley falling away beyond it. The solarium above catches the last of the sun.
The scale of the plot is what distinguishes this house from others at the price. It suits a buyer who wants genuine privacy and room to add, whether that means a guest pavilion, a tennis court or simply more garden, and it works as a permanent home as comfortably as a seasonal one.
