A Gated Property in Marbella?

Choosing your ideal villa in Marbella can be an overwhelming task. Suppose you’ve ruled out an exquisite traditional-style estate. In that case, the next step is deciding between a new-build contemporary villa in a gated community and an independent villa on its plot.

Is it a gated community for me?

Purchasing a property in a gated community has its advantages and disadvantages. One notable advantage is enhanced security, whereby only authorized persons can access the premises, providing a sense of comfort to homeowners. In some high-end gated communities, round-the-clock guards and frequent security patrols offer an additional layer of security.

…Or a single villa?

A detached villa with spacious grounds offers excellent luxury and privacy for those seeking seclusion at home. Larger estates provide even more individuality and distance from neighbors. LuxuryForSale.Properties offers large villas with extensive plots and gated community services for those seeking both. Contact us to find your dream home.

Entering the Golden Gates.

Imagine yourself surrounded by lush tropical gardens, basking in the sun beside a grand swimming pool shaded by passageways of towering palms, and working out in an ultra-modern gymnasium; picture yourself strolling across magnificent lawns or through a long chain of elegant apartment buildings, sophisticated villas or townhouses and that complete the picture of a modern elegant gated community in Marbella.

A gated community can be defined as a residential development that is enclosed by a large fence or wall, featuring at most two access gates fortified with guards; and to gain entry, residents are required to provide an access code or key and are formally identified by the security staff.

The benefits of living in a gated community extend far beyond shared costs for amenities. Here are the top attractions:

1. There is an added sense of privacy and safety, which can help to reduce break-ins by an average of 30%.
2. Access to the community is restricted to residents, expected patrons, and merchants, ensuring that unwanted visitors are kept out.
3. Gated communities often feature shared facilities such as swimming pools and gymnasiums, which are maintained through shared costs among the community members.
4. Security is a top priority in gated communities, which is why they typically employ security guards and surveillance cameras to ensure the safety of residents and their guests.
5. Gated communities offer a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, with restricted access for cars that minimizes traffic and enhances privacy.
6. Gated communities often foster a sense of community spirit among their residents, with shared interests and social activities bringing people together; this is especially true for those living in golf course communities, where residents share a common love for the sport and its culture.
7. It is widely acknowledged that properties in gated communities maintain their value better and appreciate more over time than non-gated properties.
8. For those seeking a second home, rental investment, or a lock-up-and-go lifestyle, a gated community is an ideal option that offers peace of mind and convenience.

These secluded estates offer a sanctuary of luxury, where residents can savor the true essence of exclusivity.
