Contemporary Villa in El Herrojo with Expansion Potential

Interior Description

The villa is designed around generous open-plan living areas that maximise light and flow. Floor-to-ceiling glazing connects the main lounge and dining space directly to the terraces and garden, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Moreover, the contemporary kitchen integrates naturally into the social areas, making the layout ideal for both family life and entertaining.

All four bedrooms are well proportioned and include en-suite bathrooms, while the additional guest toilet adds convenience. Meanwhile, the neutral modern palette allows new owners to personalise the interior style with ease. The existing layout already delivers comfort and functionality; however, the option to construct an additional level provides genuine future value and adaptability.

Terrace & Views

Outdoor living is central to this El Herrojo villa. The 250m² of terraces wrap around the property, offering multiple lounging and dining zones. The private swimming pool sits within a manicured garden, providing both privacy and open views across the surrounding landscape.

Additionally, the elevated position within La Quinta enhances light and outlook. The setting feels peaceful and secure, yet remains just minutes from golf, restaurants and the coastline. As a result, the home balances tranquillity with everyday practicality.

Community & Location

El Herrojo is one of the most prestigious gated communities within La Quinta. Known for its security, low-density layout and refined villas, it attracts both full-time residents and international buyers seeking discretion and quality.

Furthermore, La Quinta offers immediate access to golf courses, sports facilities and nearby schools. Puerto Banús, San Pedro and the beaches are a short drive away, while Marbella town is easily accessible. Therefore, this location appeals equally to lifestyle buyers and long-term investors.

FAQs

• How much are the total purchase costs?
  As a guide in Andalucía, allow roughly ~10% on a resale property (7% ITP + approx. 3% total for solicitor, notary and registry fees). On a purchase price of €3,195,000 this means allowing around €319,500 for taxes and costs, giving a rough total budget in the region of €3,514,500. That equates to approximately £2,998,000 and $3,840,000 at typical exchange rates. We’ll confirm exact figures when making an offer.
  
• Is holiday letting permitted in El Herrojo?
  Short-term letting is subject to community statutes and local regulations. A Junta de Andalucía licence may be required. We will confirm the current position for this villa and the El Herrojo community.
  
• Can an additional floor legally be constructed?
  The property offers the potential to add another level, subject to municipal planning regulations and project approval. We can introduce architects and planning consultants to assess feasibility and guide the process.
  
• How close is the villa to golf and amenities?
  La Quinta Golf is minutes away, while restaurants, supermarkets and international schools are within a short drive. Puerto Banús and the beaches can typically be reached in under 15 minutes.
  
• Is this property suitable as a primary residence?
  Yes. The secure gated setting, spacious layout and proximity to schools and services make it well suited to year-round living as well as second-home use.
