This grand Mediterranean estate is nestled within an exclusive gated community, offering an extraordinary Andalusian-style residence designed by renowned architect César de Leyva. Surrounded by mature pine trees and natural landscaping, the property spans two expansive plots, providing complete privacy, 24-hour security, and sweeping panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, La Quinta Golf Course, and the nearby mountains.
Situated just off the Ronda Road, the estate enjoys a prime location in one of Marbella's most sought-after areas, known for its tranquil ambiance and elevated position. Despite its peaceful setting, it is conveniently located only 10 minutes from San Pedro de Alcántara, 15 minutes from Puerto Banús, and about 20 minutes from Marbella's town centre, blending rural charm with coastal accessibility.
A cobbled courtyard with a central fountain welcomes you upon arrival, flanked by a double garage and a staff apartment with independent access. Inside, a majestic entrance hall with triple-height ceilings and a dramatic fireplace leads into spacious living areas full of Andalusian character. The formal dining room and TV lounge each feature their own fireplace and open directly onto the gardens.
The 70 m² formal living room opens onto a covered terrace framed by timber beams, while opposite, French doors lead to a peaceful courtyard finished with hand-laid pebbles from Granada. The warm and inviting kitchen boasts wooden floors, an informal dining area, and its own fireplace.
The residence offers several en suite bedrooms across multiple levels, including a luxurious ground-floor suite and a fully independent guest house near the pool. The upper floor hosts the master suite with a salon, walk-in wardrobe, fireplace, and a terrace overlooking the sea. A second bedroom and vaulted-ceiling study complete this level. Added in 2013, a secret double-height study provides a unique retreat with a fireplace and private balcony.
The extensive gardens are beautifully landscaped, featuring a large swimming pool, two gazebosone with a Jacuzziand a pine-shaded pathway leading to a private, floodlit tennis court. Mature fruit trees enhance the natural beauty, while a wine cellar, games room, and modern amenities complete this rare and exceptional home.
