Andalusian Village Charm in a Prime Location Near Marbella
La Heredia is one of the most picturesque and distinctive residential communities in the municipality of Benahavís. Located along the Ronda road, just minutes above San Pedro de Alcántara, La Heredia offers a unique lifestyle that blends traditional Andalusian village aesthetics with the comfort and exclusivity expected from a prime residential address near Marbella.
Developed originally in the 1980s and later expanded in the 1990s by the La Perla Group, La Heredia was designed to resemble an authentic white village. Its narrow cobbled streets, pastel-coloured façades, fountains, and flower-filled balconies create a timeless atmosphere that sets it apart from more conventional urbanisations on the Costa del Sol.
Location and Surroundings
La Heredia enjoys an elevated position with panoramic views over the Mediterranean coastline, San Pedro, and the surrounding countryside. It sits close to some of the most prestigious estates in southern Spain, including La Zagaleta and El Madroñal, while remaining within easy reach of Marbella, Puerto Banús, Nueva Andalucía, and several renowned golf courses.
Despite its tranquil setting, residents benefit from a walkable village centre featuring restaurants, cafés, a bakery, butcher, and gourmet shops, creating a rare sense of community living.
Real Estate in La Heredia
Properties in La Heredia range from charming apartments and townhouses to spacious villas, many with terraces offering sea and mountain views. Homes are built to high standards and retain strong long-term value due to the area’s limited supply and enduring appeal. Properties rarely come to market, making ownership here particularly sought after.
Living in La Heredia
La Heredia appeals to buyers seeking privacy, character, and authenticity without sacrificing proximity to Marbella’s lifestyle amenities. It is ideal as a primary residence, second home, or long-term investment in a proven prime location.
