House for sale in Marbella Golden Mile

A mature olive tree rises through the middle of Villa 7, growing up through a double-height interior courtyard that the rest of the house is built around. The villa sits within Vilas 12, a gated collection of just twelve semi-detached homes on Marbella's Golden Mile, styled by Pedro Peña and a short walk from Puente Romano and the beach.

It offers 373 m2 built over four levels, with three bedroom suites, four bathrooms, a guest toilet and 240 m2 of terraces, topped by a private rooftop pool and solarium.

Around the courtyard, the main floor runs through an open kitchen, dining area and lounge behind floor-to-ceiling sliding glass. Oak cabinetry, pale stone flooring and understated lighting keep the atmosphere calm rather than showy.

The upper level holds the bedroom suites, with the principal stretching the width of the façade, west-facing. A lift connects all four levels, and the rooftop is dedicated to the pool and solarium: the property's clearest outdoor asset. The house is sold furnished, with home automation, an alarm and underfloor heating throughout.

The Golden Mile's restaurants, shops and beach are close enough to reach on foot from the gates, inside a discreet, guarded enclave.

Three suites across four levels is a deliberate trade: more space per bedroom rather than a higher headcount. Households needing five or six bedrooms will find the count too low, but anyone prioritising quality of space minutes from Puente Romano should see the logic straight away.
