Villa Las Palmeras - Renovated Andalusian villa for sale in El Madroñal, Benahavis

Villa Las Palmeras sits within El Madroñal, a gated community in the hills above Benahavis. The house was built in 2004 and fully renovated in 2024, and it holds 531 square metres of built space across two floors on a plot of 5,344 square metres. It faces south and southwest, so the main rooms take direct light through the day and keep the sun into the evening.

The plan is traditional Andalusian, with high timber ceilings, arches and warm materials opened out into generous living areas. There are four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, plus a guest toilet. A home cinema room can be turned back into a fifth bedroom if needed, and there is a separate TV lounge. Underfloor heating runs throughout, alongside hot and cold air conditioning and an integrated sound system.

The plot is large and well established. Gardens of jacaranda, lemon, orange and more than fifty palm trees wrap the house, with a private pool and terraces laid out towards the view. The land falls away below, giving open panoramic sea views that the position of the community keeps clear.

El Madroñal is one of the more private addresses inland from Marbella, gated and quiet, a short drive from the coast and from the golf and restaurants of Benahavis. The size of the plot leaves room to extend or rework the house over time.
