Interior Layout
The main floor brings the principal suite and the formal reception rooms together. A dressing room, sea-facing bathroom and private sauna give the main bedroom a substantial suite of its own, while the wider layout allows everyday living to remain on the same level.
An octagonal dining room creates a distinctive venue for entertaining. Nearby, the drawing room has a wood-burning fireplace, while a bar opens towards a covered terrace. A marble-finished kitchen completes this sequence of reception spaces, combining the home’s traditional character with practical facilities.
The upper floor is dedicated to a self-contained guest suite with a sitting room and private terrace. Its separation from the main accommodation provides a useful arrangement for visitors who want their own space during longer stays.
Two further bedrooms occupy the lower level, including one with a private lounge and kitchenette. These rooms give the accommodation flexibility for family, guests or staff, depending on the buyer’s needs.
An unfinished wing remains available for a future project, with possible uses including a cinema, gym, spa or additional bedroom, subject to the necessary checks and permissions. Arched windows, exposed beams and a spiral staircase with wrought-iron detailing maintain a consistent Mediterranean character throughout the residence.
Terrace & Views at this villa for sale in La Zagaleta Benahavis
Terraces extend the reception and bedroom areas towards the surrounding landscape, with different levels providing varied perspectives across the sea and hills. Covered space beside the bar gives the entertaining rooms a direct relationship with the outdoors.
A saltwater infinity pool, prepared for heating, sits among mature gardens and palms. A hot tub adds another place to relax within the grounds, while the overall scale of the plot supports a choice of outdoor settings.
The garaging provides capacity for five cars, keeping a practical requirement within the property itself. The balance of substantial grounds, terraces and established planting is central to the home’s character, complementing the traditional architecture.
Community & Location
La Zagaleta is a private gated estate with golf courses, an equestrian centre and a helipad. These facilities form part of its distinctive residential setting, with access and any membership arrangements to be confirmed for the buyer’s intended use.
