Wonderful and unique beach front estate in Marbella

With its spectacular setting, beautiful mature grounds, luxurious villa and of course unique pedigree, this is truly a unique property in Marbella. There are many impressive villas occupying prime frontline beach locations along the Marbella shoreline, but along the sandy beaches of Los Monteros – the finest address on the east side of town – there is a superb property whose beachfront setting and sea views simply will never be equalled. What’s more, it’s a mansion whose very pedigree is part of the glamorous story of Marbella itself.

We have had the privilege to represent many magnificent Marbella properties for sale over the years, including some of the most important ones sold in the region, but every so often a home comes along that is truly unique. This beachside estate belongs to this category, and in so doing represents the cream of Marbella real estate – and a part of its rich heritage.

There is a fine selection of residential areas to choose from in and around Marbella, depending on the desired lifestyle options. One of the most exclusive addresses is that of Los Monteros. The seafront villas for sale here tend to benefit from expansive grounds -as this leafy district is one of the earlier residential zones to be planned in Marbella plots were of lavish proportions. Los Monteros is also one of the most upmarket areas of Marbella. The tranquil streets offer a level of privacy that is highly prized amongst property owners. This established residential area, is only a 5-minute drive from Marbella Centre and all the amenities.

To be honest, the story of this splendid beachside villa leaps off the pages of a novel, for it was originally built for the daughter of a Spanish head of state, who settled here in favour of Madrid in the 1950s, attracted by the benevolent climate and lifestyle of Marbella. Already a burgeoning centre of refinement loved by an international set, the town provided her with the company of many of Europe, and indeed the world’s, most elegant and fascinating personages, from royals and business tycoons to top celebrities.

The villa, built in privileged private proximity to the beach – a feat that can no longer be copied – stands alone in offering the most stunning views and personal experience of beach, sea, skies and privacy, surrounded as it is by extensive manicured grounds. Together, they envelop the property in a rich variety of floral and seaside tones, textures and fragrances, accompanied by the soundtrack of the sea. Not only is this a singularly beautiful spot, but it is also very private, bordered only by other large properties with extensive garden.
