Description
A classic Mediterranean-style villa set within a private, sun-drenched garden in the sought-after coastal community of Rio Real, just minutes from championship golf and the beach.
The property features a traditional terracotta-tiled roof and colonnaded terraces offering shaded outdoor living year-round. A curved, kidney-shaped, emerald green pool sits within a manicured lawn bordered by mature palms and hedging for total privacy. A gated driveway leads to a covered carport, with an arched entrance door and wrought-iron grilles adding authentic Andalusian character.
Inside, a marble-floored, column-lined hallway connects bright, generously proportioned rooms. The main reception features a fireplace and full-height glazed doors onto the terrace, capturing partial sea views that extend out across the garden. A separate dining room overlooks the garden beneath a statement chandelier. The tastefully finished, fitted kitchen includes built-in double ovens, modern appliances and a nice-sized utility room.
The primary suite offers garden and terrace access alongside an en-suite bathroom with a double marble vanity, walk-in shower and freestanding bath. A further bedroom is served by an additional well-appointed bathroom. From the terrace, glimpses of the sea complete the outdoor living space.
Set within a landscaped community with green spaces, the villa enjoys easy access to the coast's golf courses, amenities and the beautiful beaches of the Costa del Sol. The property is also ideally positioned close to the charming cobbled streets of Marbella's Old Town, with its boutiques and tapas bars, and the modern La Cañada shopping centre for everyday convenience and retail therapy alike.

Acquisition considerations
- Resale purchases in Andalusia are generally subject to 7% transfer tax (ITP); new-build purchases to VAT plus stamp duty. Notary, registry and legal fees are additional. Confirm with your lawyer.
- A private purchase contract with a deposit (often around 10%) normally precedes completion before a notary.
- Financing approvals should be secured before signing a deposit contract.

Financing examples are illustrative and do not constitute an offer of credit. Availability depends on the client profile, collateral, property, jurisdiction and lender approval. Portfolio-backed lending may be illustrated at up to approximately 70% loan-to-value where suitable. Actual lending value depends on portfolio composition, concentration, volatility, liquidity, currency, jurisdiction and lender approval. Borrowing below the maximum leaves a buffer if markets fall. Mortgage approval depends on income, residency, property value and lender. How Smart Financing works.
