Set on a private corner plot, this picturesque villa offers breathtaking panoramic views of the mountains, lake, and sea, all framed by the peaceful natural surroundings of Istán. Located in the exclusive Sierra Blanca Country Club, a secure gated community just 10 minutes from Puerto Banús, this is a hidden gem where nature and comfort meet.
The west-facing plot enjoys all-day sunshine, and the lush Mediterranean garden features mature palm and olive trees, a generous swimming pool, and multiple terraces perfect for outdoor living.
Built in a modern rustic style, the villa is spacious and full of character, with double-height ceilings in the living room that enhance the sense of space and light. A charming mezzanine level, ideal as a home office or potential fourth bedroom (with a nearby shower room), overlooks the lounge. The open-plan kitchen and dining area are located on the entry level, creating a welcoming hub for family and guests.
A few steps above the entrance, the master bedroom enjoys spectacular views, alongside a guest bedroom and bathroom. On the lower level, adjacent to the living room, you’ll find a large bedroom suite offering privacy and comfort. Additional features include underfloor heating in the kitchen and master suite, a cozy fireplace in the living room, a double closed garage, and ample outdoor parking.
Although the villa has been unoccupied for some time and would benefit from light updates and fresh landscaping, it remains a property with incredible charm and potential. A visit will surely exceed your expectations.
About the Area:
Istán is a charming whitewashed village in the Sierra de las Nieves mountains, just 15 km from Marbella. Known as the “Spring of the Costa del Sol,” it’s celebrated for its natural beauty, Moorish heritage, and peaceful ambiance.

Istán is a small whitewashed village in the Sierra de las Nieves, sitting at around 300 metres above sea level roughly 15 kilometres north of Marbella. Its Moorish origins are visible in the layout of its streets and the remnants of its historic fortifications. The village overlooks the La Concepción Reservoir, a significant freshwater body that defines the landscape of the valley below. The Sierra de las Nieves was designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and, more recently, a National Park.
Daily life in Istán centres on the village itself, which has a small selection of local bars and restaurants serving traditional Andalusian food. The Sierra Blanca Country Club, a gated residential community on the outskirts, is a ten-minute drive from Puerto Banús, giving residents straightforward access to the restaurants, marina, and shops of the Costa del Sol.
Marbella is approximately 20 minutes by car, and Málaga is reachable in around 50 to 60 minutes via the AP-7 coastal motorway. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport handles direct routes to most major European cities and several long-haul destinations, making it the primary international gateway for residents. Gibraltar Airport, roughly 80 kilometres to the southwest, provides an additional option for connections to the United Kingdom.
