Interior Layout
The 4-bedroom version of Villa M5 increases the internal accommodation while retaining the project's distinctive two-level contemporary architecture. It provides 400.46 m² of built space and 340 m² of useful interior area, compared with 378.53 m² and 321.75 m² respectively in the 3-bedroom configuration.
High ceilings and expansive glazing give the principal rooms an open, light-filled character while maintaining a close visual connection with the mountains and Mediterranean beyond. The open-plan kitchen and living areas form the social centre of the villa, designed around both the landscape and the outdoor entertaining spaces.
The specification includes a fully fitted kitchen and bathrooms, underfloor heating and a lift between levels. In addition, project features include a gym, storage and utility areas, landscaped gardens and private garage parking for more than one vehicle.
The developer's wider M5 specification places particular emphasis on contemporary detailing. Recessed window systems maximise glazing with minimal visible frames, while concealed doors and skirtings create cleaner wall lines and a more architectural interior finish.
Energy performance has also been considered from the outset. Rock-wool insulation, solar-shading elements, heat-pump technology and photovoltaic panels form part of a specification designed to achieve an A energy rating.
As the project has not yet entered construction, the buyer can also discuss interior choices with the developer. This gives the 4-bedroom version particular appeal to someone seeking the scale of a bespoke villa without commissioning an entirely separate architectural project.
Terraces and Views at this Detached Villa for sale in Monte Mayor Benahavis
The 4-bedroom configuration provides 233.10 m² of terraces around the house, creating substantial outdoor areas while allocating more of the overall design to interior accommodation.
For comparison, the €2,875,000 three-bedroom option has 351.78 m² of terraces but a smaller 378.53 m² built area. The choice therefore comes down partly to whether a buyer places greater priority on a fourth bedroom and additional internal space or on the larger outdoor footprint of Option B.
The elevated 2,775 m² plot provides the same dramatic setting for both designs. Views sweep across the surrounding mountains and coastline towards the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and the North African coast.
A heated swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the principal outdoor area. Covered and open terraces then create different spaces for dining, entertaining and relaxing while preserving the uninterrupted relationship between the architecture and landscape.
Community and Location of this Detached Villa for sale in Monte Mayor Benahavis
Monte Mayor provides a distinctly different environment from the denser residential areas closer to the coast. Large plots, wooded hillsides and mountain scenery give the community a feeling of space and privacy, while the villa's architecture has been designed specifically for its sloping natural setting.
The gated community provides 24-hour security and surveillance cameras. The villa specification adds a private alarm and security system, further supporting its suitability as either a principal residence or a secure second home.
The M5 project brochure places Marbella and Puerto Banús at approximately a 15-minute drive, giving residents access to the coast, restaurants, shopping and leisure while retaining a secluded hillside base.
This is an off-plan turnkey project rather than a villa already under construction. The developer intends to commence the build after sale, with approximately 18 months stated for construction.

FAQs
- How much are the total purchase costs?
For a new-build property in Andalucía, allow approximately 13% on top of the purchase price as a broad guide, covering IVA, AJD and associated purchase fees. On €3,625,000, this represents approximately €471,250 and an estimated total budget of €4,096,250, around £3.50 million or $4.74 million at current exchange rates. The developer's staged payment structure separates land and construction components for IVA purposes, so the exact final tax calculation should be confirmed with your solicitor. We’ll confirm exact figures when making an offer. - What is the difference between the 4-bedroom and 3-bedroom options?
The 4-bedroom Option A costs €3,625,000 and provides 400.46 m² built, 340 m² useful and 233.10 m² of terraces. The 3-bedroom Option B costs €2,875,000 and provides 378.53 m² built, 321.75 m² useful and 351.78 m² of terraces. Both options use the same 2,775 m² plot. - What are the payment terms for the 4-bedroom villa?
The current Option A document lists a €6,000 reservation to remove the project from the market, followed by €650,000 plus 21% IVA. At the same time, the construction contract calls for a 10% payment plus 10% IVA, with the remaining construction balance paid monthly against certifications until completion. The current payment schedule should be reconfirmed before reservation. - How long will the villa take to build?
The developer states a construction period of approximately 18 months. Building is intended to begin once the villa is sold, so this is a build-to-order project rather than an already commenced development. - Can buyers personalise the villa before construction?
Yes. The developer states that the interior can be adapted in accordance with the buyer's wishes. Available choices will depend on the timing of the purchase, technical requirements and the final agreed specification.
