Panoramic Sea & Mountain-View Plot with License & Project | El Madroñal, Benahavís

This privileged El Madroñal plot for sale (approx. 2,822 m²) sits within one of the Costa del Sol’s most prestigious gated estates—offering a fully approved building licence and architectural project so you can start construction immediately. A rare chance to craft a bespoke contemporary villa amid grand cork oaks, with sweeping sea and mountain views in a low-density, 24/7-secure enclave just above Marbella and Puerto Banús.

Property Highlights — El Madroñal plot

• Price: €1,400,000
• Plot: approx. 2,822 m²
• Approved building licence + full architectural project (immediate build start)
• Panoramic sea & mountain vistas; tranquil, private hillside setting
• Elite gated estate with 24/7 security, controlled access and patrols
• Low-density country-estate living minutes from golf, schools and dining

Plot & Build Potential

With the licence and project already granted, you avoid the longest lead-time in the development cycle and can focus on fine-tuning interiors and specifications with your architect and builder. Typical design programs here include a main living level flowing to panoramic terraces and an infinity pool, a principal suite level with private solarium, and a lifestyle lower level (spa/gym/cinema/garage) that makes the most of the slope and natural light (subject to the approved plans and town-hall parameters).

Community & Amenities

El Madroñal is a storied, private country estate opposite La Zagaleta, accessed via six gatehouses along the Ronda Road. Residents enjoy 24/7 on-site security with monitored entry points, patrols and CCTV across miles of private roads—delivering exceptional peace of mind alongside pristine natural surroundings.

Location & Surroundings — Benahavís Hills (New Golden Mile)

At ~400 m above sea level, the estate pairs cooler breezes and big views with quick access to life at sea level: Marbella/Puerto Banús and beaches are a short drive; Málaga–Costa del Sol Airport is roughly 45 minutes, and Gibraltar about an hour. Nearby are top-tier courses (La Quinta, Los Arqueros, Atalaya, El Paraíso), international schools and the renowned restaurants of Benahavís pueblo.

Why It Stands Out

Blue-chip address, panoramic vistas and—critically—an approved licence and project so you can break ground now. Secure, low-density living within minutes of Marbella’s lifestyle anchors.
