Lakeside villa on a private peninsula in Istán, Marbella

This detached villa stands in Istán, in the mountains above Marbella, on a private peninsula that reaches into a reservoir. The property needs renovation, so the house, its installations and its finishes can all be renewed to the next owner's taste.

The villa

The existing villa has 877 m² of built area over two floors, with 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. Covered and open terraces of more than 717 m² in total surround the house, together with a swimming pool of about 63 m². A second pool is located elsewhere on the land. The villa holds a first occupancy licence and a complete licensing history. The proposed layout includes generous living and entertaining areas, plus a gym and a spa.

Features

• Private garden and private pool
• Views over the lake, mountains, forest, countryside and sea, with a panoramic outlook
• Large terraces facing south west
• Villa plot of more than 25,000 m², part of an estate of over 129,000 m² made up of seven adjoining plots
• Private lakeside road, old stone walls, pine and palm trees

Location

The land continues into the water and forms a secluded peninsula with direct access to the shore. On clear days the view stretches towards the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and North Africa. The coast is still close: Puerto Banús and San Pedro de Alcántara are about 15 minutes away, Marbella 20 minutes and Málaga Airport around 45 minutes.

Who it suits

This villa suits buyers who want privacy, calm and nature, and who would like to shape a large home and estate themselves. It offers a lot of space and an unusual setting within reach of the Costa del Sol.
