Bungalow in Benahavís

MONTE MAYOR: A HIDDEN GEM IN BENAHAVÍS

Tucked into the hills above the Costa del Sol lies Monte Mayor — a place where luxury meets untamed nature.

This gated residential community blends exclusive villas with a charming Andalusian-style village, all wrapped in tranquility and panoramic views. From here, you can see the Mediterranean, Gibraltar, and even the African coastline on a clear day.

Spanning 330 hectares, more than half of Monte Mayor remains protected green belt — untouched, wild, and alive . Three rivers wind through the estate, feeding the land with fresh water and giving the area its lush, almost secret character .

Just 7 kilometers from the coast and 2 kilometers from the village of Benahavís itself , Monte Mayor feels a world away — yet Marbella and Puerto Banús are only minutes down the mountain.

For hikers, it’s just as rewarding. The Monte Mayor loop trail covers roughly 14 miles with nearly 2,800 feet of elevation gain — a demanding but spectacular route with sweeping views over Benahavís, La Zagaleta, and the Marbella coastline .

Wildlife thrives here too, from golden eagles to partridge, undisturbed in their natural habitat .

Monte Mayor isn’t just a place — it’s a slower, wilder way to live on the Costa del Sol.

This is a stunning, newly reformed villa that is available for immediate occupation.

Th accommodation is set out over three floors, with the master and the other four bedrooms all benefiting from private en suite bathrooms.

The huge open plan living space offers a contemporary kitchen with direct access to the swimming pool, sunny terraces and outdoor kitchen.

The plots extends to 2450 m2 and is pretty much maintenance free.

There is a covered parking area which has a turn table, making it easy to navigate your car in and out.

There is an ‌additional ‌private ‌guest ‌parking ‌space accessed ‌from the road.

The ‌property ‌will be ‌fully ‌furnished by the end ‌of ‌August, therefore offering a ‌unique ‌opportunity ‌in ‌the ‌market ‌place ‌today.

Welcome to a home that is as uncommon as it is desirable. This generous corner townhouse in La Quinta Hills belongs to a category of its own when it comes to size, potential and value — a property type that is almost impossible to find on the market today. With its double-street orientation, expansive corner plot and exceptional sense of privacy, the house feels far more like a standalone villa than a townhouse. The increased security and natural seclusion of the location make this an environment as rare as it is valuable.

The built area spans an impressive 289 m² distributed over two floors, offering four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a guest toilet — ideal for families, long-stay visitors or investors seeking strong, year-round rental performance. One of the home’s most notable advantages is the possibility to extend the living room by approximately 35 m², significantly enhancing the interior layout while increasing the property’s overall market value. This is not only a wonderful home, but also a project with clear financial upside.

The 287 m² private garden is one of the property’s true highlights. As a corner unit, it offers an unusually large, open and private outdoor space — perfect for children, relaxation, dining, or the installation of a jacuzzi or outdoor kitchen. This is the kind of exterior setting that gives the property a genuine villa-like atmosphere, where indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly.

From both ground floor and upper level, you can enjoy beautiful sea views and the tranquillity that characterises La Quinta Hills. The gated community is peaceful, well-maintained and known for its safe, serene environment. Residents benefit from three large communal pools set among lush greenery, creating a resort-like ambience throughout the year.

Whether you are looking for a home for extended stays, a base to enjoy Marbella’s lifestyle on shorter visits, or a high-performing rental investment, this townhouse offers a rare combination of space, comfort and long-term potential that is increasingly difficult to find on today’s market.

This is more than a townhouse — it is an opportunity. A chance to acquire a large, private, well-positioned home in an area where properties ‌of ‌this ‌size ‌and ‌character almost ‌never become available. ‌A ‌residence with ‌soul, ‌potential and that special ‌something ‌that makes it a ‌true ‌gem ‌on ‌the ‌Costa ‌del ‌Sol.
