Ein Außergewöhnliches Anwesen, In Dem Zeitlose Eleganz Auf Klassischen Luxus Trifft

La Arbequina is a substantial private villa in La Zagaleta, set within extensive landscaped grounds with open views across the surrounding mountains, the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and the North African coastline. Its architecture combines imposing proportions with carefully crafted interiors and gardens that give the property a unique sense of privacy and grandeur.

Arrival is through a ample entrance courtyard centred on a fountain and framed by the villa’s distinctive façade. Inside, the double-height entrance hall immediately establishes the scale of the house. A sweeping staircase, marble detailing and an intricate patterned floor lead towards the central patio, which forms the architectural heart of La Arbequina.

Designed around this patio, the main living spaces are arranged beneath galleries with carved wooden ceilings and stone columns. Mature palms grow within the patio around a central fountain, while an opening glazed roof brings natural light and air into the centre of the house.

The living room is exceptionally generous, with a fireplace, large windows and direct access to the south-facing covered terrace. From here, the house opens fully towards the garden. Several outdoor sitting and dining areas run along the façade, including sheltered spaces that can be enclosed for year-round use. The formal dining room also opens towards the garden and connects to a professional chef’s kitchen. A separate wood-panelled library and a study offer a quieter space overlooking the grounds, while a guest bedroom suite on this level has direct garden access with an outdoor sitting area beside a relaxing pond.

On the upper floor, the principal suite occupies a south-facing position overlooking the gardens and includes a private terrace with sea views, a large dressing room and a marble bathroom with twin showers. Four further bedroom suites occupy the remaining wings, enjoying open mountain or garden views. Two lifts connect all three floors.

The lower level is devoted largely to leisure, wellness and practical areas. It includes a private cinema, billiards and entertainment room, wine cellar, bar, sauna and relaxation spaces, together with extensive staff accommodation with three suites and a self-contained apartment, storage, laundry, technical rooms and a 6-car garage.

Outside, the gardens are one of La Arbequina’s defining features. Expanses of manicured grass are shaped by mature pine trees, sculpted hedging and plants. Below the main lawn, the infinity pool is set within its own landscaped area and is complemented by a separate pool pavilion with dining, lounge and bar areas. The elevated position gives this part of the property spectacular views across La Zagaleta towards the Mediterranean.

The adjoining plot of land located to the south of the property, with a total surface area of 12,305 square metres, is also included in the property and in the purchase price. Accordingly, the property’s sea views are fully guaranteed.

La Zagaleta is a private 900-hectare estate with 24-hour security and access control, two 18-hole golf courses, an equestrian centre, clubhouses, sporting facilities and a heliport. Despite the scale and privacy of the estate, Puerto Banús, Marbella and the coast remain within easy driving distance.

La Arbequina combines the proportions of a grand country house with the privacy, landscape and infrastructure that make La Zagaleta one of the most exclusive private estates in southern Europe.
