Description

Silence. Space. Sea.

A home above it all. Where the horizon softens, and time slows.

Set in the hills of Benahavís, surrounded by green valleys and open sky, this exceptional Andalusian villa offers a rare kind of calm — uninterrupted, private, deeply felt.

Reimagined in 2024/2025, the home balances timeless architecture with a refined Scandinavian bohemian interior. Natural wood, soft textures, and muted tones create a quiet, effortless elegance. Underfloor heating runs throughout, adding a gentle, constant comfort beneath every step.

Only the finest materials have been selected.
A bespoke kitchen by KØK Marbella.
Elegant surfaces and tiles from Porcelanosa.
Warm oak flooring.
Refined fixtures by Iconico.
Custom carpentry throughout
Impressive cleanings

Every detail considered. Nothing excessive. Everything lasting.

Across three levels, the layout is both generous and intuitive.

The main living space flows an open kitchen and out to expansive terraces, where indoor and outdoor living become one. A discreet guest powder room completes this level together with a bedroom en suite and a large living area with a natural fireplace.

Five bedrooms offer calm and privacy. Three are serene ensuite suites, while the lower level presents two additional spacious rooms with a shared kitchen and bathroom — ideal for guests, extended family, business or independent living.

A flexible space adapts effortlessly — cinema, gym, studio, or retreat.

Outside, the green-tiled pool reflects the sky and surrounding nature. Terraces invite long, unhurried days and evenings that arrive softly, without notice.

Private. Gated. 24-hour secure.
Six minutes to the AP-7.
Ten to San Pedro.
Fifteen to the Mediterranean, Marbella and Estepona
Thirty-five minutes to the airport (AGP)

What we would challenge

  • Asking price only: we form a view of value from verified comparables before recommending an offer.

What we would verify

  • Registered versus cadastral areas for plot and built surfaces
  • Licence of first occupation and legality of all structures
  • Charges, encumbrances and ownership at the land registry
  • Local taxes (IBI), community fees and any pending levies

Acquisition considerations

  • Resale purchases in Andalusia are generally subject to 7% transfer tax (ITP); new-build purchases to VAT plus stamp duty. Notary, registry and legal fees are additional. Confirm with your lawyer.
  • A private purchase contract with a deposit (often around 10%) normally precedes completion before a notary.
  • Financing approvals should be secured before signing a deposit contract.

Financing examples are illustrative and do not constitute an offer of credit. Availability depends on the client profile, collateral, property, jurisdiction and lender approval. Portfolio-backed lending may be illustrated at up to approximately 70% loan-to-value where suitable. Actual lending value depends on portfolio composition, concentration, volatility, liquidity, currency, jurisdiction and lender approval. Borrowing below the maximum leaves a buffer if markets fall. Mortgage approval depends on income, residency, property value and lender. How Smart Financing works.
