Contemporary Villa, Vilas 12, Golden Mile

The entrance opens into a double-height living space arranged around an interior courtyard, where a mature olive tree grows through the centre of the home. The main floor flows through an open kitchen, dining and lounge area behind floor-to-ceiling sliding glass. Oak cabinetry, pale stone flooring and restrained lighting run throughout, and the generous terraces extend the living space outdoors on both sides of the courtyard.

The upper floor is given over to the bedroom suites. The main suite runs the width of the façade, with sea-facing glazing, private terrace access and a bathroom that includes a freestanding bath and an integrated dressing area. Two further guest suites follow the same understated palette of light stone and clean lines, with garden-facing glazing and their own private terraces.

The rooftop terrace is where the villa distinguishes itself. A private pool runs along the edge, with space for dining and lounging under a pergola, opening onto views across the Golden Mile and the Mediterranean. Four parking spaces complete the property, a practical addition for a home of this size on the Golden Mile.

Vilas 12 sits on Marbella’s Golden Mile, within walking distance of Puente Romano’s restaurants, beach clubs and promenade, and an eleven-minute drive from Marbella’s old town. Puerto Banús is four minutes away by car, and Málaga Airport is around forty minutes’ drive. Families are well served locally, with Svenska Skolan Marbella a four-minute drive, Aloha College around six minutes, and Swans School’s primary and secondary campuses between eight and ten minutes away. Aloha Club de Golf is a seven-minute drive for golfing residents, and Helicopteros Sanitarios is five minutes away for emergency care. Gated developments of this scale are uncommon on the Golden Mile, and Vilas 12’s twelve-villa footprint keeps the community private while remaining close to the area’s restaurants and beach clubs.

For buyers seeking privacy on the Golden Mile without sacrificing proximity to Puente Romano, Villa 7 is a well-positioned opportunity within one of the area’s smaller gated developments. We think its scale and setting make it worth viewing early.
