VILLA LYRA, in context.

Villa Lyra is a single, off-plan contemporary villa positioned within Monte Mayor Alto, one of the most discreet and low-density gated communities in the municipality of Benahavís — consistently regarded as among the most exclusive residential addresses on the Costa del Sol. Set on a 2,275 m² private plot, the residence delivers 596 m² of built space across two floors, with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a guest WC.

The architectural language centres on clean lines, generous volumes, and expansive glazing designed to dissolve the boundary between interior space and the surrounding Mediterranean landscape. Unobstructed views across sea and mountains are a defining feature of the site's elevation within Monte Mayor Alto. The community itself operates 24-hour security and enforces low-density planning, ensuring both privacy and the long-term character of the neighbourhood.

Construction and completion dates have not yet been formally released; prospective buyers should seek current programme detail directly through Roccabox.

Roccabox analyst view

Villa Lyra represents a singular off-plan opportunity: there is precisely one unit, and it remains available. Engaging now allows a buyer to influence specification and finishes before construction is locked. The asking price of €3,495,000 sits within a Benahavís market where comparable resale villas — albeit with five bedrooms — are listed between €1.8m and €5.25m, suggesting the new-build premium here is measured rather than inflated. Monte Mayor's enforced low-density zoning structurally limits future supply, supporting long-term capital resilience. Construction timelines are yet to be formally published; early-stage buyers should treat programme confirmation as part of initial due diligence.

Reserving early

Why buyers reserve at this stage

Personalisation window

Reserving during the Off-plan 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.

VILLA LYRA is not priced against average Benahavís resale stock. It is a premium new-build product with the specification, plot quality and amenity package that the broader resale market typically does not match. At €5,864 per built m² the relevant question is whether the premium is justified against comparable new-build completions — not whether it beats the area's median of €669/m².

Monte Mayor sits within Benahavís, a municipality that combines genuine natural seclusion with rapid access to the infrastructure of the western Costa del Sol. Marbella and Puerto Banús are reachable within approximately fifteen minutes by car, placing world-class dining, beach clubs, and international retail within easy reach without compromising the tranquillity of daily life at altitude. Benahavís itself is noted for its concentration of golf courses — the area is home to some of the most respected layouts on the coast. The town of Benahavís village, known for its restaurant-lined main street, is close at hand. For families, a strong network of international schools operates throughout the Marbella corridor. The surrounding hills are clothed in protected Mediterranean scrub, and the micro-climate at this elevation tends toward clear skies and cooling breezes during summer months.

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 VILLA LYRA a good investment compared to the local resale market?

VILLA LYRA 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 VILLA LYRA?

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 VILLA LYRA 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 VILLA LYRA from Málaga airport?

Approximately 59 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 Off-plan stage, VILLA LYRA 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.
