Detached Villa in Benahavís

Tucked away in the exclusive hills of the Benahavís mountains, this detached villa in Monte Mayor represents a masterful blend of traditional Andalusian soul and modern refinement. Situated on an expansive 2,909 m² plot, the residence offers a rare sense of seclusion where the only neighbors are the local wildlife and the rolling green valleys. This is a sanctuary for those who value total privacy without sacrificing proximity to the vibrant coastal lifestyle, offering panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding protected nature reserves.

The architectural journey begins with a classic courtyard entrance featuring a soothing fountain, leading into a home where every detail has been thoughtfully considered. The main floor centers around a spacious living area with a fireplace and vaulted wooden ceilings, seamlessly connecting to a high-end, newly renovated kitchen and utility room. A dedicated office and a guest suite with its own terrace complete this level. Below, three additional en-suite bedrooms provide sanctuary, including a palatial master suite that opens directly onto the terrace to capture the first light of the morning. For those pursuing a healthy lifestyle, the basement houses a semi-professional gym and a versatile games room.

The exterior of this Monte Mayor house is designed for the quintessential Mediterranean climate, featuring a heated swimming pool and a sophisticated outdoor kitchen with a bar. Recent upgrades have transformed the garden into a series of curated experiences, from the relaxed chill-out area with a large day bed to the solar-powered ambient lighting that illuminates the grounds at dusk. Technical comforts are paramount, with underfloor heating throughout, comprehensive air conditioning, and a robust security system within a gated community that offers 24-hour peace of mind.

Living in Benahavís offers a unique microclimate and access to some of the coast’s most prestigious amenities. While the villa feels like a remote retreat, it is only a short drive from the gourmet restaurants of Benahavís village, the luxury boutiques of Puerto Banús, and world-class golf courses. This property is a rare find for buyers seeking a large plot and a home with genuine character in one of the most secure and naturally beautiful enclaves on the Costa del Sol.
