Priciest Spanish Property Neighbourhood Found in Costa del
Sol
 |
La Zagaleta in Benahavis is some one of the most
expensive areas in Spain
|
Variety is the name of the game when it comes to the Costa
del Sol. Ibiza might have all the clubs, Majorca might have all the cycling,
the Canaries might have stunning weather, and Costa Blanca might have the
beaches, but the Costa del Sol puts it all together and even does some things
better.
Costa del Sol property is no exception. Madrid has some of
the most prestigious Spanish streets, and the inland pueblos of Andaluccan
help you get the most for your money, the Costa del Sol offers a lot at both
ends of the spectrum.
The latest data from nationwide estate agency Idealista
analysed data about Spanish home prices and found that the most expensive
neighbourhood of Spanish property is found in none other than the Costa del
Sol.
The name of the area is La Zagaleta, an urbanisation nestled
in the verdant hills off Benahavis. Property there costs an average of €5.6
million and it’s hardly surprising. The gated communities around here are where
you can find the richest, most famous people in the world.
There are several reason that La Zagaleta draws in these
elites, and the exclusivity of the area is reflected in the property prices.
There is a superb climate here, along with some fantastic views of the
Mediterranean, incredible accessibility to all the best clubs and restaurants
of Puerto Banus, and – of course – seclusion. There are no prying eyes or
flashing cameras, and some of the villas come equipped with a helipad allowing
the people living there to be as secretive as possible when it comes to
arriving and leaving.
Outside of the Costa del Sol, the La Moraleja neighbourhood
of Madrid is the second-most expensive postcode in Spain with average property
prices of €5.05 million. After this comes the Castillo de Aysa of Madrid with
€5 million, and the Avenida del Tibidalo in Barcelona coming fourth with
average property prices of €4.83 million.
