Sierra Blanca, a jewel in the Marbella crown

Sierra Blanca, one of the most exclusive residential areas of Marbella

Sierra Blanca is a highly sought after area for luxury property in Marbella. Together with some other fine urbanisations, it is often referred to as the mountainside or inland area of the Golden Mile. The term ´´Golden Mile´´ traditionally referring to the coastal area between Marbella and Puerto Banus.

As the city of Marbella has evolved over the years, several suburbs have taken on their own special gem status, lifting up and improving the entire Greater Marbella Area. Sierra Blanca, often dubbed the Beverly Hills of Marbella for a reason, is such an attractive, fine urbanisation. But what makes it so special? 

Micro climate

Sierra Blanca as a suburb takes its name from the eponymous mountain range just north of Marbella, as it lies at the foothills of the Sierra Blanca Mountain Range, famous for its iconic La Concha mountain peak.  The proximity of the mountain peaks give the urbanisation its very own microclimate, offering shelter from strong winds whilst tempering the summer heat.

Amazing panoramic views

With its elevated location at 300 meters above sea level, and only being 2 km away from the coastline, Sierra Blanca and nearly all of its luxury properties benefit from breath taking panoramic views over the valley, the Mediterranean Sea, the coastline and the surrounding mountains. 

Exclusivity, security, tranquillity and privacy

Sierra Blanca is gated and there is a security company touring and monitoring the urbanisation at all times. In addition, many developments of the urbanisation have their own 24-hour security service.

There is no through traffic, which guarantees tranquillity, privacy and abundance of fresh air.

Sierra Blanca counts amazing luxury mansions and villas as well as prime apartment complexes, in diverse types of architecture, all set in elegant gardens and exclusive country clubs with tropical plants and large pools. As the supply of building plots is nearly exhausted, and given all the other attributes described below, re-sales properties are always in strong demand. 

Convenience: proximity to almost everything

All amenities are nearby, as the Golden Mile and the centres of Marbella and Puerto Banus, with their vast choice of restaurants, boutiques, shopping centres and leisure facilities are all less than 5 minutes away by car. It only takes a very short drive to the gorgeous beaches of Marbella, the Golden Mile´s iconic beach promenade and the many exclusive beach clubs.

The famous La Cañada shopping centre, one of the largest on the Costa del Sol, is just down the road, as are many sports and high-end private medical facilities.

The Golf Valley in Nueva Andalucía, a true golfer´s paradise which counts no less than 7 prime golf courses, is a mere 10 minute-drive away.

Sierra Blanca has very easy A7 motorway access, which opens up endless possibilities to make day trips to anywhere in Andalucía, drive to other resorts and golf clubs, or reach the airport in no time.

Last but not least, Sierra Blanca is at the doorstep to some stunning countryside and natural beauty, with Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park only a short drive further north. 

International vibe

Many demanding home owners in Sierra Blanca come from other parts of Europe and the world indeed, all attracted by the beauty, quality, tranquillity and luxury lifestyle Sierra Blanca has to offer. As such, Sierra Blanca has a multicultural / multilingual community of discerning home owners, many of which choose to live here all year round.

Swans International School, one of the first international schools on the Costa del Sol is just around the corner and a further indication of the international community present in this area.
 
All these prime attributes make Sierra Blanca ideal to live all year round.
