It is a truth universally acknowledged—at least by those with the faintest taste for the finer things—that there exists a rare breed of property that does not simply sit upon the land but converses with it, plays to its light, and dances with its vistas.

Such is the case with this quite delectable apartment nestled in the enviably elevated folds of *Altos de La Quinta*, Benahavís.

This is no ordinary dwelling; this is architecture as autobiography, an epistle to modernity penned in stone, glass, and sun-soaked serenity.

Constructed in 2005 and soon to be reborn via renovation in 2025 (an act of rejuvenation rather than rescue), the residence stretches graciously over 158m².

Its southeast orientation is no idle compass point—it is a deliberate staging for the grand performance of sunrise, where mornings pour themselves generously into the three splendidly sized bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath, because, of course, civilisation begins with a private lavatory.

A guest toilet, too, lurks discreetly, for those who appreciate the gentle diplomacy of not foisting the master loo upon visiting souls.

The heart of the home, however, lies in the open-plan union of the living room and kitchen—a layout designed not merely for function, but for the theatre of life itself.

Here, families may breakfast, argue over coffee strength, and debate the best route to the beach, all in an atmosphere of stylish informality.

From here, one steps onto a 37m² terrace, where the eye is met by a panorama so absurdly picturesque that it would make a Romantic poet swoon: sea, mountain, and a riot of verdant hues competing for one's admiration.

And yet, all this aesthetic generosity does not come at the cost of practicality.

No, here luxury and logic lie together like old lovers.

The materials are of the highest grade, the appliances modern and unpretentious, and the light—the light!—is as if curated by some celestial interior designer.

One enters through a secure, gated community, where manicured gardens embrace shaded walkways and a communal pool (with a charming children’s pool off to one side) offers both refreshment and social choreography.

There are options for parking aplenty, from the communal to the more exclusive, thus relieving one of that most vulgar of middle-class anxieties: *where shall I leave the Audi?*

Benahavís itself is no supporting act—it is a star turn. Known as the “Dining Room of the Costa del Sol,” it offers gourmet experiences so refined they make the Michelin Guide blush.

And for the sporty or spiritually inclined, golf courses and river walks await with open arms. One is, in short, wonderfully spoilt.

In this apartment, then, one does not simply live. One resides, one inhabits, one *flourishes*.
