In Marbella, as in most real estate markets, there are distinct residential areas each with their own locational advantages, characteristics, views and of course also different levels of prestige, demand and the price tags attached to this. This, of course, is quite apart from the different surroundings, properties and lifestyles each area offers.
Assessed this way, there are several clearly distinguishable types of property for sale in Marbella:
Downtown Marbella apartments
Beachfront apartments and penthouses in Puerto Banús
Frontline golf villas and apartments in Nueva Andalucía and similar suburbs
Country club villas in La Zagaleta and other hill club areas just inland from the coast
Each draws a different kind of buyer dependent on their personal needs and preferences. For instance, people looking to buy a summer holiday apartment will usually choose a frontline beach apartment close to all leisure amenities, while golf lovers understandably seek Marbella homes near golf courses, and those who enjoy ultimate luxury and service, and either live or spend extended periods of time here are often attracted to country clubs and leafy residential areas such as Nueva Andalucía – and La Alquería.
Up and coming new addresses
You see, the higher cost and limited supply of established luxury addresses such as the Golden Mile, Los Monteros, Nueva Andalucía, Guadalmina, La Zagaleta and El Madroñal, among others, has made a growing number of buyers discover other beautiful residential areas of the Marbella, Benahavis and Estepona ‘Golden Triangle’. Prominent among these is La Alquería, a very on-trend area on the New Golden Mile – ten minutes from both Marbella and Estepona.
La Alquería is situated midway between the New Golden Mile beach and the hills of Benahavis, just minutes from either, and as a result offers a world of leisure and lifestyle opportunities close to all amenities, including a good choice of golf courses, tennis clubs, schools, shopping, dining and nightlife. Moreover, there is a great variety of luxury apartments and modern villas for sale in La Alquería, yet this increasingly consolidated residential zone also still has land on which to build private villas.
Not only do you get more home from your money here, but La Alquería also has one of the best selections of modern, new-built properties for sale in Marbella, ranging from new-build apartments and penthouses to contemporary villas with all the comforts and amenities you could wish for.
