About the Property
Set within the secure and highly sought after gated community of El Madroñal in Benahavís, this contemporary five bedroom villa is defined by scale, privacy and a strong architectural connection to its natural surroundings. Positioned on an expansive plot with uninterrupted panoramic views across the mountains and coastline, the property combines modern design with a discreet, low density environment just a short drive from Marbella.
The architecture is partially integrated into the hillside, creating a natural sense of harmony with the landscape while enhancing thermal efficiency and year round comfort. Across three levels, the layout has been carefully structured to separate private living, social entertaining and functional spaces, resulting in a home that feels both generous and highly organised.
The main living floor is dedicated to entertaining and everyday living, with a fluid arrangement of formal and informal lounge areas, dining space and a contemporary kitchen. A wine cellar adds a refined lifestyle element, while a guest suite on this level opens directly onto the terraces, ensuring comfort and independence for visitors. Large openings extend the interior spaces naturally towards the exterior, where a heated sea salt infinity pool sits in direct dialogue with the surrounding views.
The first floor is reserved for private accommodation. The principal suite occupies a significant portion of this level, featuring a dedicated dressing room and a private library, creating a calm and self-contained retreat above the main living areas. An additional en suite bedroom is also located on this floor, maintaining both privacy and proximity within the family accommodation.
The lower level introduces a highly practical yet discreet arrangement, including a private garage and a dedicated home office, allowing for separation between professional and residential life without compromise.
Outdoor living is a defining feature of the property. The expansive grounds include multiple terraces and a fully equipped professional outdoor gym, complete with high-specification apparatus and a boxing ring. Rather than a decorative addition, this space functions as a genuine wellness and training environment with uninterrupted views across the landscape.
Equipped with a comprehensive smart home system, underfloor heating throughout and advanced climate control, the villa ensures year round comfort and security. The gated community benefits from controlled access and armed security with rapid response capability, reinforcing the sense of privacy and protection that defines El Madroñal.
Despite its tranquil mountain setting, the property remains within easy reach of Marbella, San Pedro, international schools, golf courses and everyday amenities. The AP-7 motorway provides direct connectivity to the wider Costa del Sol and Málaga Airport, ensuring practical accessibility alongside seclusion.
Combining architectural clarity, privacy and extensive outdoor space, this estate offers a rare opportunity for those seeking a substantial modern residence in one of Benahavís’ most established and secure hillside enclaves.
