Property Highlights by Pia
Villa HG. The Hidden Gem of the Golf Valley
There are several features I would highlight about Villa HG.
One is the layout; even though it is a large home, it feels very practical and manageable. The property has been designed by a renowned architect, incorporating spacious and bright interiors, complemented by an impressive entrance drive. The gym and the indoor swimming pool area benefit from natural light and offer views of a charming courtyard with a centenary olive tree. Additionally, it is conveniently located just a few minutes from the motorway, making it easily accessible.
Luxurious frontline villa in Vereda del Golf, Rio Real
This property is truly special, surrounded by golf courses on three sides and within an exclusive community of only eight villas with gated access.
Its Andalusian style, and the beautiful porch, adds to its unique appeal. The guest houses in the garden are incredibly attractive and offer additional space for visitors. The impressive entrance drive and immaculate landscaping further enhance the property's charm.
Villa Bianca, contemporary villa in Las Brisas
Villa Bianca is ideally located in the heart of Nueva Andalucia, right next to Las Brisas golf course and close to several other golf courses.
It's just a 2-minute drive to the nearest supermarket and the Aloha Gardens restaurants, and only 5 minutes to Banus. This makes it perfect for families. Additionally, it has excellent short-term rental potential for times when the owners are away.
Large Garden Apartment for Long Term Rent in Altamira complex- Rio Real Golf
When I first walked into the apartment I had the feeling that I was in a house.
Being at the far corner of the building, away from the swimming pool, surrounded by the garden on three sides, with very spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, and all rooms with windows that open to the large terrace or to the garden, no doubt one has the impression of being in a house. From the large terrace, and through a small gate you walk down a few steps and are in the garden. Another striking feature is the large terrace (70m2) which has a dining area and a sitting area with tables, sofas and lamps where you can sit and dine all year round, and even watch TV. An ideal apartment for a family with children or elderly or handicapped people.
Unique grand estate with panoramic views
This is indeed one of Marbella's most special properties.
Rarely do we see properties with this extension of land located so close to everything. One of the most peculiar features for me is that the property sits on a completely flat plateau of 7000m2 which again is quite rare to see, especially in properties located in the hills above Marbella. It's spectacular in photos but even more so in person. It just has that extra charm and character of the traditional Andalusian architecture with those high vaulted ceilings, courtyards, space and those panoramic views.
