Villa for sale in Paraiso Alto

Finding a villa with renovation potential is relatively common. Finding one where much of the planning work has already been completed is considerably less so. Set on a generous 2,138 m² plot in El Paraíso, this south-facing property offers the opportunity to transform an existing home into a substantially larger residence with approved building plans and a licence already in place.

The villa currently offers 496 m² of built space distributed over three levels, with a practical layout that includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms and two guest toilets. Spacious living areas, a fireplace, fitted wardrobes and several terraces provide a solid foundation for a comprehensive renovation tailored to modern living.

Outside, the private garden surrounds the swimming pool, while the southwest orientation allows for plenty of afternoon sun. The elevated position also enjoys sea, garden and pool views, adding further appeal to the project.

The approved plans allow for the addition of a new floor and a basement, creating the opportunity to significantly increase both the living space and the property’s long-term value. For buyers looking to personalise a home rather than purchase a finished product, this offers a considerable advantage over starting the planning process from scratch.

The property also includes a private driveway, a covered carport for two vehicles and a secure entrance.

Located in the established residential area of El Paraíso, the villa is only a short drive from beaches, golf courses, international schools, shops, restaurants and the centres of Marbella, Benahavís and Estepona.

For buyers or investors looking for a renovation project with clear development potential, this property combines a large plot, sea views and planning certainty in one of the Costa del Sol’s most established residential locations.
