A village building with commercial rooms and residential scope

With 320 m² of built area and a 50 m² rear terrace, this building offers substantial volume in the centre of the village. Classified as a 5 bedroom 2 bathroom townhouse in Benahavís, it currently operates as a cocktail bar and restaurant, giving a buyer the choice to keep the hospitality use, convert the upper levels, or return the entire footprint to a private residence or hostel.

Current layout and lower floor

Because the building is set up for hospitality, the rooms do not follow a standard domestic plan right now. The lower floor holds the kitchen and storage areas, along with dedicated staff facilities. A side entrance for deliveries serves this level directly, which keeps stock movements separate from the main pedestrian front. For someone converting the building back into a 5 bedroom 2 bathroom townhouse in Benahavís, that independent side access and storage room remain practical for bikes, tools, or a utility zone.

The upper floor and conversion scope

The top floor carries the clearest domestic potential. There is scope here to form a 100 m² two-bedroom apartment with a bathroom, which would allow an owner or manager to live above the business, or form the top level of a larger home. What a buyer should check during a viewing is the current state of the plumbing and partitions on this upper level, and how the remaining bedrooms and bathrooms recorded on the title are distributed across the rest of the 320 m² built area.

Front and rear terraces

Outdoor space is split across the building rather than gathered in one plot. At the front, two terraces on the pedestrian street hold several tables directly outside the entrance. At the back sits the main 50 m² terrace with a retractable roof, currently arranged for around 50 guests with its own bar, lounge seating groups, and guest toilets. The top floor also has access to two further terraces, one of which is a roof terrace. Having a retractable roof over the main 50 m² outdoor space means the rear of the building remains usable when the weather turns in the hills.

Village centre position

The building faces a pedestrian street in the centre of Benahavís, a village known primarily for its concentration of restaurants and bars. From the village, the coast and Marbella are 7 km inland, and Málaga Airport is approximately 75 km away. A buyer looking at a 5 bedroom 2 bathroom townhouse in Benahavís on a pedestrian street gets immediate footfall for a business and step-free access to village life, though it also means checking where deliveries stop in relation to the side entrance.
