Townhouse Introduction:
We are delighted to present this exclusive collection of modern three-bedroom townhouses for sale in Istán, enjoying an elevated position surrounded by the natural beauty of the Costa del Sol countryside yet within easy reach of Marbella and Puerto Banús.
Designed to make the most of their exceptional setting, these homes combine spacious interiors, generous terraces and far-reaching views with communal gardens and a swimming pool. With high-quality finishes, underground parking and private storage included, they offer an appealing balance between peaceful Mediterranean living and the excitement of Marbella just a short drive away.
What is the location like?
Istán is one of the Costa del Sol's most distinctive locations, positioned between the glamour of Marbella and the dramatic landscapes of the Sierra de las Nieves. Known for its greenery, mountain scenery and traditional Andalusian character, it offers a noticeably calmer way of life while remaining surprisingly close to the coast.
The municipality stretches from the traditional whitewashed village of Istán towards the established residential communities closer to Marbella and Nueva Andalucía. This creates a rare environment where residents can wake to mountain air and open countryside while still being able to reach Puerto Banús for lunch, shopping or an afternoon beside the Mediterranean.
The wider area is particularly attractive to those who enjoy an active lifestyle. Hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, fishing and other outdoor pursuits can be enjoyed within the surrounding countryside, while Marbella provides beaches, championship golf courses, tennis, padel, restaurants, shopping and nightlife.
The nearby Sierra de las Nieves is one of southern Spain's great natural landscapes, providing a spectacular contrast to the beaches and sophisticated resorts of the Costa del Sol.
Where are the Townhouses located?
These townhouses occupy an elevated position within the Istán municipality, on the Marbella-facing side of the area and conveniently positioned for Nueva Andalucía.
Their location has been carefully chosen to take advantage of the surrounding landscape and panoramic outlook. The south-westerly orientation allows the homes to enjoy excellent natural light together with open views towards Marbella Bay and Gibraltar.
Puerto Banús is approximately 15 minutes away by car, placing its marina, beaches, designer shopping and international restaurants within comfortable reach.
Nueva Andalucía is also nearby, providing access to several of the Costa del Sol's best-known golf courses and a broad selection of everyday amenities. International schooling, including Aloha College, is conveniently accessible by car.
This is therefore a location that allows you to enjoy two very different lifestyles: the peaceful beauty of the Andalusian countryside and the cosmopolitan attractions of Marbella.
What are the Townhouses like?
The homes have been designed around space, natural light and outdoor living, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and approximately 168.92 m² of living space.
Generous terraces measuring approximately 103.69 m² substantially extend the usable living environment. These outdoor areas provide plenty of room for dining, relaxing and entertaining while making the most of the climate and surrounding views.
Inside, contemporary layouts are complemented by premium-quality finishes. The homes are delivered fully equipped and ready for occupation, creating an attractive turnkey option for international buyers.
Large windows and double glazing help bring natural light into the principal rooms, while air conditioning, heating and aerothermal technology contribute to year-round comfort and improved energy efficiency.
Practical features have also been carefully incorporated. Each townhouse includes underground parking and a private storage room, while provision for electric vehicle charging adds further convenience.
Depending on the individual property, exterior areas may include private gardens, terraces and solariums, allowing owners to enjoy the Costa del Sol's outdoor lifestyle from the privacy of their own home.
What is the Townhouses complex like?
The development has been designed as a peaceful residential environment where the architecture works naturally with its elevated surroundings.
Landscaped communal gardens provide attractive green areas between the homes, while the communal swimming pool offers somewhere to cool down during the warmer months or simply spend a quiet afternoon in the sunshine.
The limited number of properties gives the development a more private residential character than a large resort-style complex. The emphasis is firmly on space, scenery and tranquillity.
Underground parking helps keep vehicles away from the main landscaped areas, while energy-conscious features include LED lighting, aerothermal technology and measures intended to reduce water and electricity consumption within communal areas.
For buyers who want the convenience of a managed residential development without sacrificing the feeling of living close to nature, the setting is particularly appealing.
Nearby Amenities:
Although the townhouses enjoy a peaceful position, residents are within convenient driving distance of a wide selection of everyday and leisure amenities.
Nueva Andalucía provides supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, shops, gyms, tennis and padel facilities, while the surrounding Golf Valley is home to some of Marbella's most recognised golf courses.
Puerto Banús adds another dimension to the lifestyle, with its famous marina, designer boutiques, waterfront restaurants, beach clubs and sandy beaches.

For those who prefer nature, the surrounding Istán countryside provides walking and cycling routes, viewpoints and access to some of Málaga province's most impressive mountain scenery.
