Interior Layout
The main level centres on a generous living space framed by tall arched windows and doors, allowing the outlook to become part of the interior. The principal bedroom suite is also on this floor and faces the sea, with a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom incorporating a private sauna.
The kitchen features marble worktops and a bar area, while an octagonal dining room creates a distinctive formal entertaining space. A spiral staircase leads to the upper floor, where the guest wing has its own bedroom, bathroom and private terrace.
The lower level contains two further bedrooms, including one with its own sitting area and kitchenette. Separately, there is a five-car garage, extensive storage and a substantial additional area that could be adapted as a home cinema, gym, spa or further accommodation, subject to the appropriate permissions and requirements.
Terrace & Views at this Villa for sale in La Zagaleta Benahavis
The 325 m² of terraces take full advantage of the villa’s elevated south-facing position. From the house and outdoor areas, the outlook extends across the golf valley towards the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and the surrounding mountains, with views available from many of the principal rooms.
Terraced private gardens frame the infinity swimming pool and its cascading water feature. Together with covered and open terraces, the outdoor areas provide ample room for dining, relaxing and entertaining while maintaining a strong sense of privacy.
