History

Where it began

Developed from the 1970s on the slopes of the Sierra Blanca mountain range, the urbanisation attracted royalty, business leaders and celebrities looking for discretion. Its low density and generous plots were defined early, and they still shape the character of the area today.

Future

Where it is heading

With almost no buildable land left, new supply comes from replacing older villas with new architectural homes. Scarcity and its unbeatable location keep Sierra Blanca at the top of Marbella's price ladder.
