€2,595,000Asking price · Ref. R5448472
Description
Set within one of Marbella's most sought-after golf communities, this fully renovated villa is a masterclass in contemporary Andalusian living — where classic Spanish architecture meets sleek, modern interiors.
Behind its whitewashed façade and traditional terracotta-tiled roofline, the villa reveals a striking contrast: a beautifully updated interior wrapped in a timeless Mediterranean shell. Arched colonnades, a private wraparound terrace, and a solar-panelled roof combine classic Marbella charm with modern efficiency. The mature garden is lush with palms, and manicured hedging, framing a sleek pool and sun terrace — the perfect setting for al fresco living under the Andalusian sun.
Step inside to soaring vaulted ceilings crossed with statement black timber beams, from which sculptural amber glass chandeliers cascade — an elegant focal point in the double-height living area. Wide-plank oak joinery, custom shelving, and fluted wood panelling run throughout, lending warmth against a crisp white backdrop. Floor-to-ceiling black-framed sliding doors flood the living spaces with natural light and views of the pool and gardens beyond. A sleek linear fireplace anchors the main living room, flanked by full-height windows.
The open-plan kitchen is finished with book-matched marble-effect quartz countertops and splashbacks, integrated Haier appliances, and warm oak cabinetry with soft-close, handleless drawers — a striking blend of natural stone and timber tones.
The principal suite offers a serene retreat, with a slatted oak feature wall as a headboard backdrop, backlit ceiling coving, and a frosted glass sliding door leading to an expansive walk-in dressing room fitted with bespoke oak wardrobes, integrated lighting, and generous drawer storage. The spa-like bathrooms continue the material palette with floating walnut vanities, twin sinks, backlit mirrors, and large-format porcelain tiling.
The rear grounds are an entertainer's dream: a full-length covered veranda supported by traditional Moorish-style archways opens onto a sleek rectangular pool and sun terrace, bordered by towering palms and tropical planting. A separate raised water feature next to the pool, adds a further touch of resort-style luxury.
Positioned directly alongside the fairways of a prestigious Marbella golf course, with the beach only a short drive away the property enjoys a privileged setting within a residential enclave of similarly high-end villas — just minutes from the beach, golf clubs and Guadalmina Commercial Centre renowned for dining and shopping. Marbella, Puerto Banus, San Pedro de Alcantara and Estepona are also a short drive away and towns with their own charm.

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.
