Andalucia, Malaga, Benahavis, Spain

A five-bedroom villa in the urbanisation, Benahavís, offering five bathrooms plus a guest cloakroom, with a first floor dedicated to the master suite with dressing room and library alongside a guest ensuite, a ground floor arranged around formal and informal living areas, dining room, kitchen, wine cellar and guest suite opening onto terrace and a heated sea salt infinity pool, and a lower level with garage and home office. The property sits on an expansive plot with panoramic views and includes a fully equipped outdoor gym complete with professional apparatus and boxing ring. The architecture is partially integrated into the mountain itself, creating a naturally climate-controlled environment that works in tandem with underfloor heating throughout the house and a comprehensive smart home system managing comfort and security.

Set within a gated community with armed security, a rare authorisation in Spain, and a response time of under five minutes, the house is designed for someone who values discretion and ease. The location on the hillside provides altitude, air and quiet without sacrificing access to the coast. Marbella and Puerto Banús are easily reached, but from inside the property, both feel appropriately far away.
