Description
Frontline Golf Villa in Puerto del Almendro, Benahavís
Located in the established residential area of Los Almendros / Puerto del Almendro, this frontline golf villa sits on a 5,000 m² private plot overlooking Los Arqueros Golf, with San Pedro de Alcántara just 9 minutes away.

The Opportunity
This is a property where the real value lies in the plot, the location, and the opportunity to create a home on a scale that better reflects the setting.
The existing villa already provides a substantial footprint, but for a 5,000 m² frontline golf plot in this location, it is currently underbuilt, creating clear scope for expansion, redesign, and repositioning, subject to planning permissions.
Key highlights:
* Frontline golf position overlooking Los Arqueros
* Quiet established gated residential setting
* Excellent privacy
* Large private plot
* South East orientation
* Separate staff or guest accommodation
* Fast access to San Pedro, Guadalmina, Puerto Banús and Marbella
For a buyer looking to create a long-term family home or a bespoke residence tailored to modern living, this is a compelling starting point.
Large frontline plots in established Benahavís locations rarely become available.

- Location quality
- A separate municipality inland of Marbella, home to many of the coast’s gated villa estates.
- Rental potential
- Not assessed from feed data. Licensing, seasonality and costs are reviewed in a full memo.
- Liquidity considerations
- Solid international demand; marketing periods are driven by location quality, condition and pricing discipline.
- Relative value
- We do not publish valuations or comparables we have not verified. A comparable set is prepared on request.
Why we like it

- Private or communal pool listed.
- Generous plot relative to the house: 5,000 m² of land for 452 m² built.
What we would challenge
- Condition listed as renovation required: assume a modernisation budget until surveyed.
- Asking price only: we form a view of value from verified comparables before recommending an offer.
What we would verify
- Registered versus cadastral areas for plot and built surfaces
- Licence of first occupation and legality of all structures
- Charges, encumbrances and ownership at the land registry
- Local taxes (IBI), community fees and any pending levies
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.
