Interior Description
Originally built in 1978 and subsequently reimagined, the villa combines the proportions and character of an established Andalusian home with a refined contemporary interior. Its largely single-level layout also creates an unusually easy flow between the principal rooms, terraces and gardens.
At the centre of the home, a generous open-plan living area is filled with natural light. Wide sliding doors open along the covered terrace, allowing the interior to connect directly with the pool and gardens while framing the panoramic outlook beyond.
The designer kitchen was planned with serious cooking in mind. It features premium AEG appliances, a Samsung American-style refrigerator, dual sinks, extensive floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and a skylight, before flowing naturally into the dining area and terrace.
Accommodation is divided into distinct wings. Three guest bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and en-suite bathrooms, while the principal suite enjoys floor-to-ceiling windows, garden and terrace access, a fitted dressing room and an elegant bathroom with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and double vanity.
A bespoke acoustically engineered music and cinema room provides one of the villa's most distinctive spaces. In addition, a separate garden-facing pavilion and multifunctional annex provide office, library, gym and storage areas. High-performance Schüco glazing and hot-and-cold air conditioning add year-round comfort.
Terrace & Views at this Villa for sale in El Paraiso Alto Benahavis
The villa's south-facing position makes outdoor living central to the home. Approximately 93 m² of terraces provide sheltered dining and lounge areas, while the principal covered terrace runs along the villa and connects directly with the living spaces and gardens.
A roof terrace raises the outlook further, opening to broad views across the golf course towards the Mediterranean, with the North African coastline visible in clear conditions and mountain scenery forming another part of the panorama.
The 2,210 m² plot is enclosed for privacy and landscaped with mature planting around a freeform private swimming pool. There is also a dedicated area for growing fruit and vegetables, adding a more relaxed country-house element to the garden.
Community & Location
El Paraiso Alto is an established residential area above the coast, valued for its larger plots, greenery and convenient position between Benahavis, Estepona and Marbella. The villa's elevated second-line golf setting offers open surroundings without sacrificing access to everyday amenities.
Several golf courses are within easy reach, while restaurants, supermarkets and international schools are nearby. San Pedro de Alcántara, Puerto Banús and the beaches of the Costa del Sol are also only a short drive away.
High perimeter walls, automated gates and a private courtyard enhance security and seclusion. Meanwhile, the substantial three-car garage provides particularly useful parking for a home of this scale.
