Las Chapas
Marbella East, about ten kilometres from the town centre, spread either side of the A-7 between Los Monteros and Elviria.
€9.50M at the top is asking 1.9 times the €5.02M in the middle, across 24 homes priced against each other.
Lower density and lower prices than the Golden Mile for the same amount of house, which is the entire reason people move out here. Hacienda Las Chapas sits on the inland side on large plots; the beach side is a mix of villas and gated complexes. Pine cover is the visual signature and the plots are generally bigger than anything at the same money further west.
On the record
- The Río Real site, on a promontory near the river mouth, possibly dates to the 8th century BC and is thought to be a Phoenician settlement. [source]
- Two watchtowers of the 16th-century coastal defensive system survive in the zone: the Torre del Río Real and the Torre Ladrones. [source]
- Ciudad Residencial Tiempo Libre, a modern-movement complex in Las Chapas, has been listed as a Bien de Interés Cultural since 2006. [source]

by the numbers →Median asking price, €3M+ homes only. Sub-areas are counted on their parent's page as well as their own, so these do not sum to the Marbella total.
The madness rating
Percentages run against 100; the per m² ratio runs against 3 times the Marbella median of €9,436/m² (the widest any area reaches, rounded up, so no bar hits the ceiling). Still without a source, so still unscored: distance from the sea it is priced against; brochure language per square metre.

Asking is not getting. For what sellers actually achieve, the catalogue keeps receipts.
Counted from 24 distinct homes in Las Chapas asking €3,000,000 or more, harvested from agency and portal listings and deduplicated by shared reference, price, built area and photograph. 7 are listed by more than one firm at once. 22 of the 24 come from a source that dates its listings individually; the rest publish one timestamp for the whole catalogue, so their prices are current but their edit dates are not evidence. Every figure is an asking price, not a valuation, and each traces to a listing linked on this page. Sub-areas are counted here and on their own pages, so figures do not sum across pages.
