Villa Elva

About this property

Villa Elva is the only house in this section whose energy certificate has already been issued. It is a D, which for a villa built in 2018 and renovated through 2024 and 2025 is about what you would expect, and it means the paperwork runs one item shorter than usual. Four en suite bedrooms, three hundred and eighty three square metres built on a plot of seven hundred and sixty five, asking 2,450,000 euro.

It stands in La Resina Golf on the New Golden Mile, inside a community of fifteen independent villas rather than the eighty or hundred that most gated developments on this coast hold. The house faces south, which is why its living rooms are still bright at four in the afternoon in December, and the ground falls away toward the golf and the sea beyond it.

The renovation was recent and it was thorough. Underfloor heating runs through the entire house, the floors are stone and parquet, and the glass doors along the garden side were replaced rather than kept. Of the three hundred and eighty three metres, two hundred and one are interior, with the remainder made up of covered terrace, roof terrace and patio, so the figure on the brochure is honest about what it counts.

The lower level was built for leisure and nothing else: a fitted gym, a bar and a television room large enough to hold everybody at once. In the garden an infinity pool runs toward the view, with an outdoor kitchen beside it.

Alarm, motion detectors, video entry and security shutters are all fitted, which carries more weight in a fifteen house community than inside a large urbanisation with a manned barrier. Parking is a carport rather than a closed garage, there is a separate store room, and the furniture is available on top of the asking price rather than included in it.

Running costs are modest for the size: 1,022 euro a year of IBI, 112 a month to the community and 180 a year for refuse. The beach is ten minutes away and the Unicorn Racket Club five, with Estepona town and Puerto Banús at either end of the same road.
