House, Benahavis, Málaga

Located in La Quinta, Benahavís, this villa offers a well thought out layout and a sense of space that works very well for family living. The house is south facing, so it benefits from natural light throughout the day, and the rooms feel open without being exposed.

The main living level is centred around an open plan kitchen, living, and dining space, which opens directly onto a covered terrace in front of the pool. This makes the space easy to use day to day and works well for indoor and outdoor living. There is also rear access that runs around the property. A lift connects all floors of the house.

The basement is designed as a functional living level. It includes a cinema area, a full size snooker table with bar and TV area, a gym, a wine cellar, and two storage rooms. There are also two bedrooms on this floor, both with en suite bathrooms and small patio areas, with direct access to the garden via a short staircase. In addition, there is a separate living area suitable for a nanny or au pair, with its own living space, bedroom, bathroom, and independent access.

On the upper floor, there are three bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms. The master suite includes a separate sitting area, a large walk in wardrobe, and an en suite bathroom, along with direct access onto the main terrace.

Above this, the top floor provides a seating area and jacuzzi with open sea views, offering a quiet space to enjoy the evenings.

The villa is positioned on a very quiet road with no passing traffic and is surrounded by other large homes, giving it good privacy. Parking is generous, with space for eight to nine cars in total, including a covered area by the front door.

La Quinta has long been considered one of the most reliable residential areas on the Costa del Sol, and, as we see it at Elliott James, it offers a strong balance of privacy, quality homes, and day to day convenience. The area is well connected, with easy access to Benahavís, Marbella, and Puerto Banús, and is close to La Quinta Golf, the Westin Hotel & Spa, and the shops and restaurants of Monte Halcones.
