A three-bedroom villa in Ricmar, the quiet pocket between Elviria and El Rosario. 210 m² of house on a 600 m² plot, west-facing, with every view running into green rather than into a neighbour. All three bedrooms are en-suite, and each one has its own terrace — five terraces in total, including one on the roof. That arrangement is worth more than the bedroom count suggests: three couples, or a family with teenagers, can share this house without anybody queuing or compromising. The ground floor is a single large living and dining room with an open-plan kitchen and a guest WC. Upstairs, a wide hallway doubles as an office or sitting area and connects the bedrooms, with a utility room leading out to the back. There is a fireplace in the lounge and hot-and-cold air conditioning throughout, plus a spacious garage. Outside, the garden holds a private pool and the plot backs directly onto the Elviria hills, so hiking trails and dog walks start at the door rather than after a drive. The beach is 1.5 km on a flat walk, and the International English College is a kilometre away — which, for a family buying on Marbella's east side, is usually the detail that settles it.
