More outdoor space than built area in Marbella Club Hills

192 square metres of terrace and rooftop solarium wrap around and sit above this 4 bedroom penthouse duplex in Benahavís, giving the home considerably more outdoor space than its 142 square metres of built area. Built in 2021 within the gated community of Marbella Club Hills, the property splits its exterior across two levels: the main wraparound terrace outside the rooms, and an upper solarium reached from that terrace.

Wraparound terrace, rooftop solarium and what the community includes

Every bedroom and the main living area open directly onto the wraparound terrace, so nobody has to walk through the flat to step outside. From this terrace, access leads up to the rooftop solarium, which offers space for installing a plunge pool or a jacuzzi. Because the property faces two key orientations, the outdoor areas look south to the sea and east across the Marbella Club Golf Resort. Downstairs, the gated community provides an outdoor swimming pool, a separate children’s pool, a social club, a gym, a sauna and a hammam.

Single-level rooms and a fourth room used as an office

Although classed as a duplex because of the upper solarium, all the rooms sit on a single level. The layout is open-plan and is listed with four bedrooms and three bathrooms; in practice, the current configuration uses three bedrooms and a dedicated office. Buyers needing four full sleeping rooms should check the dimensions and wardrobe space of that office when viewing, whereas anyone working from home has a ready-made study. Minimal-frame windows bring strong daylight into the rooms, and all three bathrooms have underfloor heating.

Cameras, lightning protection and underground parking

Unlike many holiday flats that rely solely on the main gate, this unit has its own internal and external camera system alongside lightning protection, an practical addition on the hills of Benahavís where autumn storms can be heavy. The sale of this 4 bedroom penthouse duplex in Benahavís includes two underground parking spaces, which removes the daily friction of leaving a second car on the street.
