Madroñal Manresa, in context.

Madroñal Manresa is a single five-bedroom villa on a south-facing plot within El Madroñal, the gated hillside enclave above Benahavís that borders La Zagaleta and looks out over the Mediterranean. It is offered on an unusual basis: the buyer acts as master developer, taking control of design, budgeting, finishes and interiors, with staged payments released only after each construction phase completes.

The numbers frame the case. The villa is priced at €4,950,000 for 1,100 m² of build on a 2,656 m² plot, with a planning licence already secured. Construction runs from March 2025 to a stated completion of March 2027.

Marketing materials from associated agents put the finished value of a comparable villa between €10,000,000 and €11,500,000, and note competing developers start near €7,500,000. Those figures come from the sales narrative rather than independent valuation, and should be read as vendor guidance.

The off-plan discount, stage by stage

Off-plan entry typically offers the largest pricing headroom at the earliest stages. The advantage narrows as construction progresses — at completion the unit is priced at market. Madroñal Manresa currently sits in the With licence band.

Roccabox analyst view

This is a one-villa opportunity with the licence already granted, removing the permitting uncertainty that stalls many El Madroñal projects. Buying now lets you steer architecture, finishes and interiors before ground is broken toward the March 2027 completion, while the stage-by-stage payment structure ties outlay to verified progress. At €4,950,000 the entry price sits well under the €7,500,000-plus the vendor cites for finished comparables — a margin worth independent verification.

Reserving early

Why buyers reserve at this stage

Personalisation window

Reserving during the With licence phase gives buyers genuine input into layout, finishes and basement use ahead of handover, a window that closes as the build advances.

Scarcity and specification

1 of 1 units remain. The plot sizes, orientation and amenity package on this scheme are not easily replicated in the immediate resale stock.

Risk-managed entry

Spanish new-build buyers are protected by staged payments held under bank guarantee, ten-year structural warranty and full licence review. Roccabox brokers all of this through regulated counsel.

Market reality

The premium, contextualised

Useful context — not a substitute for unit-level valuation. Pricing data cross-referenced against live Costa del Sol market signals.

Comparable villas in Benahavís have transacted at a recent median of €4,996 per built square metre. Madroñal Manresa, in its current With licence phase, is offered at €4,500 per built square metre, a spread driven by entry-stage pricing, specification and limited remaining supply.

El Madroñal sits in cork oak and pine woodland above the coast, private and quiet yet close to the practicalities of Marbella life. The La Zagaleta course and El Higueral Golf are within six minutes' drive, and a golf academy is barely two minutes away.

Puerto Banús and its marina are around 13 minutes down the hill, with San Pedro's beaches roughly 12 minutes off. Everyday needs are close: a pharmacy three minutes away, Mercadona and Dia supermarkets within eight, and HC Marbella International Hospital eleven minutes distant. Málaga airport is about 50 km, near 90 minutes by road.

Residency planning for non-EU buyers

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025. Non-EU buyers acquiring property at this value still have residency routes — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, and case-specific options — depending on circumstances. We introduce regulated immigration counsel before any commitment.

Common questions

Buying off-plan in Spain, answered

Straight answers to the questions our specialists field most. For anything else, the assistant above answers in real time.

Is Madroñal Manresa a good investment compared to the local resale market?

Madroñal Manresa is positioned as a premium new-build product with developer warranty, modern specification and limited supply. Comparable to the broader resale stock in Benahavís on price-per-m², the premium reflects new-build standards, plot quality and amenity package not typically available in the resale market. Our market analysts model the projected key-ready value on request.

What is the off-plan payment schedule in Spain?

Spanish off-plan purchases are typically staged: 10% on reservation (refundable holding deposit), a further 20% on signing the private purchase contract, and the remaining 70% on completion. Every euro paid before completion is held under bank guarantee — if the developer defaults, your money is refunded under Spanish law.

Can a non-resident get a mortgage to buy at Madroñal Manresa?

Yes. Spanish banks routinely lend 60–70% loan-to-value to non-residents on properties at this value, over terms of 20–25 years at competitive rates. Roccabox introduces vetted non-resident mortgage brokers at no cost.

Does buying at Madroñal Manresa qualify for Spanish residency?

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025 under Organic Law 1/2025. However, other residency routes remain available depending on circumstances — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, work or family-based permits. Roccabox introduces regulated Spanish immigration counsel.

How far is Madroñal Manresa from Málaga airport?

Approximately 52 minutes' drive, with a direct route via the A-7 / AP-7 motorway.

What is included in the purchase price?

Price includes the unit as specified by the developer. Spanish purchase costs (VAT/IVA on new builds at 10%, AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, notary and registry around 1%, legal counsel typically 1%) sit on top of the headline price. The Roccabox team produces a personalised total-cost breakdown on request.

Can I personalise the property?

At the With licence stage, Madroñal Manresa buyers can typically influence layout details, basement configuration, finishes and specification ahead of handover. The window narrows as the build progresses. Our specialist will walk you through what's still negotiable on each remaining unit.
