Beautiful villa with amazing coastal views at Monte Mayor, Benahavis

This is a charming detached villa located in Monte Mayor, Benahavis. It was the first house to be built within the estate, and therefore arguably occupies the best plot, with simply stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding landscape.

This home was lovingly created and maintained by the current owners, and in its design displays influences from Andalucia, East Africa and South America. There are also elements of colonial and Moorish influence, which combine superbly to create a welcoming family home.

An automatic gate leads to an impressive driveway with a large parking area. On entering the home via the antique wooden door, visitors are greeted by a beautiful galleried hallway which leads to the spacious lounge and dining area, which enjoys superb sea views across the garden and pool. Linked to this area is the kitchen and family room, with details such as cathedral ceilings and stone flooring. Large terraces can be accessed from the lounge and the kitchen. Next to the kitchen is a separate utility room which enjoys separate access to the driveway. Also on the ground floor are two double bedrooms and a bathroom.

On the upper floor is a very large master bedroom with terrace, plus en-suite bathroom and dressing area, plus a small office space on the other side of the galleried landing.

The lowest level of the villa provides a shower room and several storage areas, in addition a large multifunction space of over 40m2 great for an additional bedroom, granny flat, games room, teenagers' den, office, gym or home cinema. There is full length natural light and provides independent access to the garden.

The garden is beautifully landscaped with a variety of trees, plants and shrubs, providing a stunning backdrop throughout the seasons. There is a lovely swimming pool in the centre of the lawned area all enjoying the views.
