An elevated building parcel with coastal views and a current licence

The plot looks out across the coastline towards the Mediterranean Sea. This resale land in Marbella covers 2,111 square metres in the northern part of the town and is sold with a licensed project for a contemporary villa, removing the long wait normally required to obtain town hall planning approval before ground can be broken.

The parcel and its position above the town

An elevated site changes both the outlook and the groundworks of a build. Here, the height provides panoramic views of the sea and the coast, while keeping the plot five minutes from Marbella Old Town and the shopping centre. The beaches and beach clubs are ten minutes away. Because this is an individual parcel in northern Marbella rather than a finished home, a buyer is acquiring the earth, the gradient, and the legal right to build according to the approved parameters.

What the licensed project allows on the site

The approved plans permit a villa with a 502.56 square metre built area (including 245.01 square metres of terraces and 254.55 square metres for interiors) and an additional 321.75 square metre basement. The license covers two main floors, a rooftop solarium, a private swimming pool, and an underground garage designed for three vehicles. Having the licence in place means the urban parameters—setbacks, maximum height, and volume—have already been verified against municipal rules for this specific piece of land in Marbella. A buyer who wants to alter the footprint will need to check whether modifications require a minor amendment or a new submission.

Access, services and what to establish before offering

Buying a plot with a project is different from buying a turnkey build. Before making an offer, a buyer's lawyer and technical architect should inspect the exact expiry dates and conditions of the building licence. On site, you should verify the exact boundary markers, the incline of the land for excavation and retaining walls, and the connection points at the plot edge for mains water, electricity, drainage, and telecoms. Confirming the road access for heavy construction vehicles is also essential on an elevated parcel.
