Sierra Blanca is the gated community that became shorthand for Marbella trophy. A 75-hectare estate on the foothills of La Concha, 850 villas, one private security force, and entry prices starting at €5.5M.
The premium is real
Sierra Blanca trades at approximately 18-22% premium over equivalent properties in nearby unguarded areas. The premium reflects three things: security, views, and resale depth.
What to look for
Not every plot in Sierra Blanca is equal. Upper plots along Camino de la Virgen have the sea views. Middle plots closer to Calle Málaga offer larger parcels. Lower plots nearest the entrance trade security for convenience.
