Villa for sale in Rocio de Nagüeles

862 m2 on a 2,057 m2 plot, with the sea on one side and the mountains on the other: Villa Celestia, designed by Tobal Arquitectos, sits in Rocío de Nagüeles, on the slope above Marbella's Golden Mile.

High ceilings run through the house, amplifying both light and the sense of scale, and the modern detailing is carried out with clean, consistent craftsmanship. Living areas open onto wide terraces built for outdoor dining, while mature landscaping around the plot keeps the house private from its surroundings. Six bedrooms, six bathrooms and a guest toilet fill out the 862 m2, with a fireplace anchoring the sitting room for the cooler months.

The lower level is where the service and leisure functions sit: a gym, wine cellar, guest room and laundry, kept apart from the main living floors. Outside, manicured gardens surround the private pool.

Rocío de Nagüeles rises directly above the Golden Mile, close enough that central Marbella, Puente Romano and the beach are a short drive away, while the area itself keeps the low-density, residential character it has held since it was developed in the 1970s.

A brand-new build of this scale on a large private plot this close to the Golden Mile is a specific combination, and it comes with a specific look: fully modern, inside and out. Buyers who want classic Andalusian architecture will need to look at the area's older villas instead.
