8 Bedroom Villa with Panoramic Sea Views in La Quinta, Benahavís

The project

This villa is planned on a plot of 11,178 m² in La Quinta, in the municipality of Benahavís. It is offered with plans and an active building licence for a house of 2,443 m² built, of which 1,998 m² is interior space. The design responds to the land: the villa sits in a valley and is set into the hillside, so it becomes part of its surroundings rather than standing on top of them.

Layout and living spaces

The villa is planned over three floors, with eight bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. Eight of the bathrooms are ensuite and two are outdoor bathrooms with showers. Three of the bedrooms are private suites with their own living area and kitchen. Other spaces include:

• a chef's kitchen and a show kitchen
• a living room, dining room and informal dining area
• a library, cinema, games room and bowling alley
• a beverage cellar, laundry room and machine room
• two English patios

Wellness, comfort and technology

The plans include an outdoor pool with jacuzzi and an indoor pool with jacuzzi, together with a sauna, steam room, salon with medi-spa and a gym. Windows are designed to slide away into the walls, while water features, living walls and natural materials bring the landscape indoors. Dark stone found in the valley is used in many wall finishes. The house also has underfloor heating, air conditioning, a fireplace, a lift, double glazing and a basement. A smart home system provides audio indoors and outdoors. Water is heated with photovoltaic power, rainwater is collected for irrigation and water is recycled. Parking covers six cars in the garage and three under a carport.

Location and who it suits

The villa faces south west with sea, mountain, country and panoramic views. The area is gated with 24 hour security, and golf, town and schools are close by. It suits a large family, or buyers looking for a bespoke home with generous space for wellness, fitness and entertaining. Further renders and plans are available on request.
