Townhouses for sale in Marbella

Discover the best townhouses for sale in Marbella — your complete guide

A townhouse is how most people get into Marbella. A villa here starts roughly where a townhouse ends: counted from our listings on 14 October 2026, townhouses for sale in Marbella run at a median of 4,307 € per square metre across 57 listings, while detached villas in Marbella sit at 5,723 €.

This page lists every Marbella townhouse for sale that reaches us through the Resales network. Use the filters above to narrow by district, bedrooms and price; use the guide below to decide which district to filter for. Every figure is counted from the listings, which is why the numbers change without anyone editing this text.

Why choose Marbella for your townhouse investment?

Townhouses in Marbella for sale are bought for three reasons — as a home, as a second residence, as something to let — and Marbella supports all three better than most of this coast.

A town that works all year

Marbella does not close in winter. The old-town restaurants stay open, the international schools run, and the Marbella clinics are the best equipped on the coast. For a townhouse bought as a home that matters more than any feature of the house: a terraced row in a resort that empties in October is a different proposition.

Amenities, golf and the sea

Marbella holds more than a dozen golf courses, two marinas and twenty-seven kilometres of beach. Most townhouses in Marbella are within ten minutes of a course and fifteen of the sand, so you rarely have to choose: a townhouse in Nueva Andalucía is minutes from three courses and from Puerto Banús.

Proximity to airports and major cities

Málaga airport is about 50 minutes from most of Marbella, with direct flights across Europe through the winter, not only in summer. Gibraltar is an hour the other way. For a townhouse used as a second home, that frequency decides whether you come six times a year or twice.

The most desirable locations for townhouses for sale in Marbella

In Marbella the address decides the price far more than the house does. Two districts hold about two thirds of the townhouses for sale in Marbella that we list.

Nueva Andalucía: where most townhouses for sale in Marbella are

The valley behind Puerto Banús is the largest single block of townhouses for sale in Marbella — terraced rows between Las Brisas, Los Naranjos and Aloha, mostly built in the eighties and nineties, many since reformed. Entry is around a quarter of a million for a townhouse needing work; a reformed one on a golf-side urbanisation runs past 1.7 million.

Marbella townhouses for sale: the town and the Golden Mile

The second block of Marbella townhouses, and the broadest in price. It reaches from the streets behind the old town, where a townhouse is a house with a bakery on the corner, up to the Golden Mile, where the same word describes something with a lift and a sea view. That is why our Marbella town listings run from 258,000 to 2.7 million.

San Pedro de Alcántara

Marbella's second town, and the one that still feels like one: a daily market, ordinary shops, schools. A townhouse in San Pedro is a house you live in rather than visit, and prices sit in a narrower band than anywhere else in the municipality — which makes it the easiest district in which to judge a fair price.

The eastern beaches: Elviria, Las Chapas, Cabopino

East of Marbella the supply of townhouses thins but moves closer to the sand. These are the quiet end of Marbella: beachside urbanisations with pine woods behind them, and a townhouse there is usually gated and a walk from the beach. Rates sit well below the Golden Mile.

Factors to consider with townhouses for sale in Marbella

Among townhouses in Marbella for sale, orientation matters more than it does in a villa, because you have only two facades — south-west puts the evening sun on the terrace, north-east keeps the townhouse cool in August. Parking matters in the older Nueva Andalucía rows, where a townhouse may have none. And a corner position takes light from a third side and resells more easily.

Legalities and ownership costs

Have a local lawyer check the licence of first occupation, the registry entry against what you were shown, and whether any extension was legalised. Then budget the annual costs: IBI, rubbish collection, community fee, and non-resident income tax if the townhouse is not your main home.

Potential for rental income

A townhouse in Marbella lets well to families, which means fortnights rather than weekends, and the season runs longer than for an apartment. Before counting on it: holiday letting in Andalucía requires registering the property, and some communities restrict short lets.

Tips for finding townhouses for sale in Marbella

The market for townhouses for sale in Marbella is not large — a few hundred at any time, of which perhaps a third match a given buyer. That makes the search a question of method rather than luck.

Work with a local agent like us

We list from the shared Resales network, so the same townhouse appears here as elsewhere; what differs is the advice. Ask what is wrong with a property, not only what is right — a row with a drainage problem or a community in dispute does not show in photographs.

Visit Marbella in different seasons

See a townhouse in February as well as July. The district that delights in August can be shuttered in winter, and the terrace that catches the evening sun in June is in shadow by four in December. If you can come only once, come out of season.

Compare Marbella with Estepona and Benahavís

Townhouses in Estepona run at 3,911 € per square metre over 144 listings — the largest supply of the three. In Benahavís they run at 3,132 €, the cheapest rate on this coast. If Marbella itself is the point, Marbella townhouses for sale are the cheapest form of that address. If the address is negotiable, forty minutes west buys more house. And if nothing fits today, our property alarm mails you when a townhouse arrives that does — better than refreshing this page.

Answers about townhouses in Marbella

What do townhouses for sale in Marbella cost?

From 235,000 euros to 5,500,000, with the middle of the list at 730,000 for 184 square metres built. 140 are with us at a time, and 1 of them is new build — this is a resale market. Against a Marbella villa at 3,000,000 in the middle, a townhouse is the way into the same urbanisation for a fraction of the money. The figures per square metre in the table on this page are counted fresh each morning; the villas are on detached villas in Marbella. The townhouses for sale in Marbella in the list above are rebuilt with every feed run, so a house that sold yesterday is gone today.

Where are the townhouses for sale in Marbella?

Nueva Andalucía has the most by far with around sixty — the golf valley is full of terraced schemes from the eighties and nineties. Marbella itself follows with about forty, then San Pedro de Alcántara with fourteen and a handful each in Cabopino and Elviria. 102 of the 140 are in a scheme with a pool.

Why would I take a townhouse over an apartment here?

Floor area and the front door. 184 square metres on average against 142 for a Marbella flat, over two or three levels, usually with a patio at the back and a roof terrace on top — and no neighbour above you. The quota is comparable, because both pay for the same gardens, pool and security. What you take on is the stairs and your own roof. All the flats are on apartments in Marbella.

What should I check before buying townhouses for sale in Marbella?

The party walls, for noise, which you can only judge on site. The roof, which on a townhouse is yours and not the community's — ask when it was last sealed and what it cost. Whether what stands matches the register, since closed-in porches and converted basements are common in the older schemes and are the buyer's problem. And the community accounts with the last two sets of minutes. Our agents on the ground will pull all of it. We do it on any of the townhouses for sale in Marbella you shortlist.

What comes on top of the asking price of townhouses for sale in Marbella?

On townhouses for sale in Marbella, between 10 and 13 per cent for transfer tax, notary, registry and legal fees, reckoned on the price you agree. Then quota, IBI, rubbish, and your own roof and façade. For the same type at a lower level, see townhouses in Estepona or houses in Casares; if nothing fits yet, our property alarm will mail you when it does.

What townhouses for sale in Marbella cost in October 2026

The table is counted fresh each morning from our Marbella listings. It covers all house types per district, because splitting by district and subtype would leave most rows with three or four listings.

Budget

Budget the costs on top of the price of the townhouse: on a resale townhouse in Marbella, roughly 10 to 13 per cent for transfer tax, notary, registry and legal fees. On an 800,000-euro townhouse that is 80,000 to 104,000 euros.

Size and layout

Built area includes garage, covered terraces and circulation. A 220-square-metre townhouse may give 150 of living space over three floors. Ask for the distribution, not the total, and walk the stairs — three floors are charming at 45 and less so at 75.

Community fees and running costs

Almost every townhouse in Marbella belongs to a community maintaining gardens, pool and often a gate. The fee alone tells you little: ask for the quota and the minutes of the last two meetings. The minutes say what repairs are coming.
