Interior Layout of this Villa for sale in El Paraiso Alto Benahavis
The villa is arranged across four levels and offers a flexible layout suited to a full renovation or redesign. On the entrance level, a central staircase connects the main floors, while four bedrooms provide generous accommodation for family and guests.
Two of the bedrooms on this level share a bathroom and terrace, creating a practical arrangement for visitors, older children or extended family. In addition, the upper floor includes another bedroom with a window and the principal suite on the opposite side of the hallway.
The master suite enjoys its own south-facing private terrace with sea views, adding a calm and elevated retreat within the home. As renovation work is already underway, the property offers an opportunity to refine the floor plan and create a more contemporary flow.
At garden level, the semi-basement functions as the main living area. French doors open directly outside, while the adjoining dining kitchen connects the interior with the garden and pool environment.
A separate area on this level could be used as staff accommodation, guest accommodation or a more independent living space. Moreover, it benefits from access from the semi-basement and its own independent entrance, giving the future owner valuable flexibility.
Terraces and Views at this Villa for sale in El Paraiso Alto Benahavis
The outdoor areas are one of the property’s most important lifestyle features. The 2,470 m² private plot provides space for gardens, poolside relaxation, outdoor dining and entertaining.
The villa enjoys a south-facing orientation, helping to maximise natural light throughout the day. From different parts of the property, views extend across the sea, mountains, golf surroundings, gardens, pool and nearby forested landscape.
The master terrace creates the strongest private viewpoint, with a direct sea outlook from the upper level. Meanwhile, the garden-level living areas offer a more relaxed connection to the pool and outdoor spaces.
