The site currently hosts a 1970s villa and ancillary buildings (total 453 m²), offering ample scope for redevelopment. With a building coefficient of 0.20, the plot potentially allows for up to 1,000 m² of above‑ground construction — ideal for creating a modern luxury villa. Set within a secure, low‑density gated community, this plot offers exceptional privacy combined with open golf and mountain views. The existing villa is ideal for either a full redevelopment or a high‑quality renovation.    DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL There are two attractive development routes:   1. Full Redevelopment (Most Popular Option) - Build up to 900 m² above ground (plus potentially a basement)   - Maximum height: 2 floors / 7 metres   - Minimum 3 m setbacks from boundaries   - Estimated construction cost for a modern 900 m² villa: €900,000 - €2,000,000 (dependent on finish) - Demolition/preparation allowance: €100,000   - Expected resale value for a new 900 m² villa: €5.4M–€6.75M   - Likely ROI: ~25–30% based on current market conditions   2. Renovation & Extension of Existing Villa   - Existing structure: 453 m²   - Potential to add a second floor or extend within the 900 m² allowance   - Renovation budgets vary depending on scope, but typically €500,000–€600,000 for a full modernisation   - Faster project timeline and lower upfront cost   - Ideal for buyers wanting a personalised home without a full rebuild       MARKET COMPARISONS Recent listings in Los Almendros highlight strong demand for large, modern villas. Examples include:    - A contemporary 850 m² villa on a 4,800 m² plot with panoramic sea views and infinity pool, marketed at €4.95 million.    - A modernised 920 m² villa on a 5,200 m² plot with landscaped gardens and guest apartment, priced at €5.2 million.    - A newly built 870 m² villa on a 4,500 m² plot with designer interiors and private gym, available for €4.8 million.    - Premium new builds with exceptional design and views regularly exceed €6M   These comparables confirm the strong resale potential for a newly built villa on this plot. Given the larger‑than‑average 5,000 m² plot, this property offers exceptional long‑term value and resale potential.     INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS - Prime Benahavís location with panoramic views   - Large plot with generous building allowance   - Strong ROI potential based on comparable sales - 10 minutes to Puerto Banús   - 15 minutes to Marbella   - 5 minutes to Monte Halcones (supermarket, cafés, pharmacy)   - Gated community with 24/7 security   - Surrounded by top golf courses, international schools, and luxury amenities
