The E-MAGAZINE of Marbella Hills Homes

As we approached a new decade, the Costa del Sol’s love affair with sleek white modern architectural styles began to evolve. After almost ten years of avant-garde cubist domination, occasionally accompanied with minimalist colour tones and interior décor, a softening of lines began to enter the scene. Driven by feedback from buyers, Marbella architects began to return to some classic Mediterranean and Andalusian elements by incorporating sloping rooflines, more natural materials and sometimes even traditional rooftiles.

2020 was a year of many changes – some temporary and others more long-lasting, as some of the trends that emerged or accelerated during the year are here to stay.

Marbella Hills Homes is a select property agency that does not list every Marbella property it comes across. Instead, we are highly selective of the homes that we work hard to market and find buyers for, and this comes not from any form of snobbery but from the fact that when we commit ourselves to promoting a home we do it with full conviction of our time, know-how and resources.

We don’t just list properties and sit back, we’re not that kind of company, so instead we work hard to assist in your search for the perfect Marbella home. This includes creating a series of interest-specific galleries based on location (golf, frontline beach), styles (modern, newly built), and also market updates featuring the latest listings and discounted real estate.

There are many reasons why Marbella has, over the past sixty years, become one of the foremost lifestyle destinations in the world. Key is the climate, followed by a magnificent setting between the Mediterranean Sea, mountain ranges and green valleys – with the blend of Andalusian culture and stylish cosmopolitan vibe topping it off.

It’s fair to say that most of us are indeed looking forward to 2021, and ready to look back at a year that will go down in history as one of the strangest ever. 2020 will not be remembered fondly by most people around the world, having brought us a virus and accompanying restrictions that have had a profound impact on the economy and society, in Marbella as elsewhere, but it was also a year that allowed us to slow down, take stock and perhaps appreciate the more important things in life.
