Set within the prestigious gated estate of La Zagaleta in Benahavís, this substantial seven-bedroom villa stands on an exceptional 6,556 m² south-facing plot surrounded by mature greenery. Its elevated position opens towards far-reaching Mediterranean views, while the scale of the grounds provides a remarkable sense of privacy and tranquillity. With 1,031 m² built across two levels, the property offers the proportions of a true country estate within one of the Costa del Sol’s most exclusive residential communities.
The villa is characterised by elegant classical architecture, generous rooms and a strong connection with its outdoor surroundings. The main living and dining spaces open towards extensive covered terraces framed by columns, creating sheltered areas for dining and relaxing while overlooking the gardens, swimming pool and sea beyond. Inside, natural stone flooring, decorative detailing and large windows give the home a distinguished character, while its generous proportions provide considerable scope for creating both formal and informal living environments.
Seven bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, provide excellent accommodation for family and guests. Several bedrooms enjoy direct terrace access and beautiful outlooks across the surrounding landscape, while the principal suite is particularly spacious and includes a large bathroom with a hydromassage bathtub positioned beside the windows. The two-level layout is complemented by a guest toilet and extensive circulation and reception areas, allowing the home to comfortably accommodate larger gatherings without compromising privacy.
The outdoor areas are among the estate’s defining features. Broad lawns extend in front of the residence towards a large private swimming pool and expansive sunbathing terraces, with mature trees and established planting framing the property naturally. A substantial 304 m² of terraces creates multiple settings for outdoor dining and entertaining, including covered spaces from which the combination of garden, pool and Mediterranean views can be enjoyed throughout much of the year.
Completing the property is a private garage, while its setting within La Zagaleta places it in a highly private residential environment surrounded by nature. The combination of a 6,556 m² plot, more than 1,000 m² of built space, seven en-suite bedrooms and extensive outdoor areas gives the villa an impressive sense of scale.
