Situated in the prestigious municipality of Benahavís, in an elevated position above El Paraíso Golf, this elegant villa combines timeless Andalusian architecture with refined living spaces and a privileged natural setting. Located in a peaceful cul-de-sac, the property enjoys open sea views, a high degree of privacy, and a strategic location with fast connections to both Marbella and Estepona, making it ideal for permanent living or a secure second residence on the Costa del Sol.
Renovated in 2006, the villa has been carefully maintained and upgraded to offer comfortable, functional living while preserving its character. The main living level features a generous open-plan kitchen with two central islands, a separate utility area, and direct access to outdoor terraces and the garden. The living and dining areas are spacious and full of natural light, enhanced by two fireplaces, including a distinctive double-sided feature. Premium Roman Clavero windows and doors connect the interior with the main terrace, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. High vaulted ceilings with exposed wooden beams add warmth and architectural interest throughout.
The upper floor is dedicated entirely to the master suite, offering a private retreat with a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom, fireplace, private balcony with views, and a separate home office. The lower level accommodates three additional bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a practical laundry and storage area. An independent guest apartment with its own garden access provides excellent flexibility for visitors or extended family, while an attic space offers further potential for conversion into an additional room if desired.
The villa sits on a 1,600 m² plot with mature landscaped gardens, fruit trees, multiple terraces, and covered outdoor lounge areas designed to enjoy both sun and shade throughout the day. A well-proportioned swimming pool completes the exterior, creating an inviting setting for relaxed Mediterranean living.
Benahavís is known for its natural surroundings, security, and proximity to leading golf courses such as El Paraíso, Atalaya, and Los Flamingos. International schools, private clinics, beaches, and fine dining are all within easy reach, while Puerto Banús and Marbella town centre are just a short drive away.
Offered by Key Real Estate, a boutique agency specialising in high-quality properties in prime locations, this villa reflects our commitment to personalised service, in-depth market knowledge, and long-term client support before, during, and after purchase.
El Paraíso is one of the most established residential enclaves in the Benahavis municipality, occupying elevated terrain between Estepona and Marbella on the western Costa del Sol. The area is defined by its mature landscaping, low-density development, and consistent architectural character, with villas set on generous plots along quiet roads. Its position above the El Paraíso Golf course gives upper sections commanding views across the Mediterranean toward the Strait of Gibraltar and the North African coastline.
El Paraíso Golf Club is immediately accessible. The commercial centre of El Paraíso provides supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés for daily needs. Los Flamingos and Atalaya golf courses are within five minutes by car. Puerto Banús is roughly ten minutes away, with its marina restaurants, beach clubs, and retail. Marbella town centre and Estepona are both under twenty minutes.
Malaga Airport is approximately 65 kilometres east, typically a 45 to 55 minute drive via the AP-7 or A-7 coastal motorway. Gibraltar Airport lies around 55 kilometres to the west, offering an alternative for European routes. The AP-7 provides direct access to both Marbella and Estepona in under twenty minutes. There is no rail connection in this area, so a car is essential for daily life, which is standard for this part of the Costa del Sol.
