Published on Leave a comment on Marbella and its luxury property market leading the crisis recovery

A privileged area, surrounded by greenery, nothing to block the view, very few neighbours, top quality and an innovative design. These are the characteristics demanded by the new villa in Marbella 300x225 - Marbella and its luxury property market leading the crisis recoveryproperty market which is being reborn on the Costa del Sol. The macro-developments, all looking the same, which mushroomed along the coast during the boom years, have been left behind.

Following the crisis the sector is starting to reactivate, thanks to projects which are based on luxury: residential complexes with a very few, very exclusive properties which are, logically, designed for those with ample budgets.

In Marbella, several of these are to be found now. Avenida Príncipe Hohenlohe, otherwise known as the Golden Mile, and Sierra Blanca are the main attractions for investors, many of whom bought land some time ago but were reluctant to build on it because of the plunging property market. Now, signs for show houses are reappearing and off-plan sales are becoming a reality once again.

Sierra Blanca Estates proposes to build The World Marbella on land where it had planned one of the skyscrapers that were rejected at the beginning of this year.

Marbella beach 300x187 - A new project for 112 state-of-the-art apartments in MarbellaThe five continents will no longer be represented in Marbella solely by the residents who hail from all over the world. Europe, America, Asia, Africa and Oceania, will give their names to the five sections of a new real estate development, a ‘microworld’ that will boast innovative design, top-of-the-range materials and as many services as residents could ask for.

The World Marbella is the name of Sierra Blanca Estates’ new project to be built on the site just metres from the Golden Mile where they had envisaged building one of the infamous skyscrapers that ended up being rejected by residents and council at the beginning of this year.

The scheme is attractive on paper and a select group of real estate firms are already showing it to potential clients - but only those who might be able to afford the between 1.3 and 3.4 million euros that these exclusive apartments are going on sale for.

Published on Leave a comment on Total luxury: La Zagaleta, in Benahavís, Málaga

On the golden mile that extends along the coastline between Estepona and Marbella there is still room for a 24 carat urban diamond. A place in which the terms ‘luxury’ and ‘exclusive’ do not go far enough, because of the great fortunes that are needed to reside there. In the 900 hectares of La Zagaleta residential development, in the municipality of Benahavís, not just any fortune is acceptable.

Villa in Benahavis2 300x211 - Total luxury: La Zagaleta, in Benahavís, MálagaThe 230 property owners have the right to veto prospective neighbours who might put at risk the anonymity of this happy Arcadia, which sits in the foothills of the Serranía de Ronda and has views of Gibraltar.

Even the simplest home costs ten million euros here and the most expensive costs three times as much. When somebody presents their credentials as a purchaser, the other owners do not ask how many times he or she has featured on the front pages of newspapers - they ask for a guarantee that they are worth ten times the price of the house they are going to buy.

With a philosophy like that, this residential development has become a place of refuge for the truly powerful who hold the reins of a substantial part of the world economy and who appreciate the worth of real privacy. People such as Oswald J. Grübel, for instance, who has exchanged handling the fortunes of UBS and Credit Suisse, Switzerland’s biggest financial institutions, for a much quieter golden retirement as CEO at La Zagaleta.
