NE-BM-4B3B-8Townhouse in Manilva162 m², 4 bed, 3 bath€ 465,000Houses for sale in Manilva
Houses in Manilva carry the lowest median per square metre of any municipality we count — 3,640 € across 46 comparable listings — and they come with a quirk worth understanding before you start: here the townhouses cost more per square metre than the detached villas.
The quirk, and what it tells you
Townhouses run at 3,718 € per square metre, detached villas at 3,785 €. On most of this coast that order is reversed. The explanation is position rather than quality: the townhouses here sit mostly in coastal schemes close to Sabinillas and the marina, where the walk to the sea does the pricing, while a good share of the villas are inland and on the hillsides, where the plot is generous and the drive is longer. It is a useful reminder that in a small market the type label tells you less than the map does.
What is actually for sale
Townhouses slightly ahead of detached villas, a handful of semi-detached houses, and a few fincas among the vineyards inland — this is moscatel country, and the grape is still part of the municipality's economy. Most of the coastal stock dates from the 1990s and 2000s; the rural properties are older and come with their own set of questions.
What the money buys
A house with a garden at a price that has not existed between Marbella and Estepona for twenty years. The trade is distance: Estepona is about twenty-five minutes east, Gibraltar twenty-five west, Málaga airport an hour and a half. For buyers flying from the UK that last line reads better than it looks, because Gibraltar is the practical airport from here.
What to check before you buy
Four things. On anything rural, the legal status of what stands on the land — in Andalusia an old farm building may be registered differently from the house you are shown, and that is a lawyer's question before it is a price question. Access, water and drainage, in the deeds rather than in practice. On a townhouse in a scheme, the community accounts: quota, reserve and the last two sets of minutes. And the winter, which at this end of the coast is quieter than anywhere else we cover.
Where to go from here
Everything in the municipality is on property for sale in Manilva; apartments under apartments in Manilva and building land under plots in Manilva. East, the same type is under houses in Casares and houses in Estepona. If nothing in the list above fits yet, our property alarm will mail you when something does.
Answers about houses in Manilva
What do houses for sale in Manilva cost?
Less per square metre than in any other municipality we count. The current medians by type are in the table on this page and recounted with every feed run; the range runs from townhouses in coastal schemes to villas on the hillsides and the occasional finca inland. Use the filters at the top of the list to compare like with like rather than reading the municipal average — and note that houses for sale in Manilva divide into a coastal and an inland market. Everything in the municipality is on property for sale in Manilva.
Why do townhouses cost more per square metre than villas here?
Position, not quality. The townhouses sit mostly in coastal schemes near Sabinillas and the marina, where the walk to the sea does the pricing; a good share of the villas are inland and on the hillsides, with generous plots and a longer drive. On most of this coast the order is reversed, so it is worth knowing before you assume that houses for sale in Manilva follow the usual pattern — compare against houses in Casares next door.
Are there country properties among the houses for sale in Manilva?
A few, among the vineyards inland — this is moscatel country and the grape is still part of the local economy. They are older than the coastal stock and come with their own questions, starting with the legal status of what actually stands on the land, which in Andalusia is not always what the deeds describe. Treat that as a lawyer's question before it is a price question. It applies to most of the rural houses for sale in Manilva, and building land is listed separately under plots in Manilva.
What should I check before buying houses for sale in Manilva?
On anything rural: the legal status of the building, and access, water and drainage as registered rather than as practised. On a townhouse in a scheme: the community accounts — quota, reserve and the last two sets of minutes. And in both cases the winter, which at this end of the coast is quieter than anywhere else we cover. Our agents on the ground will chase the paperwork with you.
How far is everything from here?
Estepona is about twenty-five minutes east, Sotogrande ten west, Gibraltar roughly twenty-five minutes and Málaga airport an hour and a half. For anyone flying from the UK, Gibraltar is the practical airport — which makes this end of the coast better connected than its distance from Málaga suggests. The next municipality east is Casares, which sits between Manilva and Estepona in price as well as in place.

Townhouses above villas
Townhouses here run at 3,718 € per square metre and detached villas at 3,785 € — the reverse of most of this coast. The townhouses sit near the sea, a good share of the villas inland, and in a market this size the map matters more than the type.
How to read the table
It splits the municipality by house type rather than by district, because the individual places here are too thin for a publishable median. Use it for the type premium, then the filters at the top of this page for the property itself.
| Type | Typical | Range | Listings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detached Villa | 3,785 € | 1,900 – 5,240 € | 20 |
| Townhouse | 3,718 € | 2,622 – 4,697 € | 18 |
Asking prices from our own active listings, not recorded sale prices; the range column shows where the middle half of the listings sit. Types with fewer than ten comparable listings are left out.
