This fabulously spacious and luxurious property, totalling 1,700 sq metres, is situated in Guadalmina Baja, one of the most prestigious residential areas of Coastal Andalucia, and it sits in over 4,000 sq metres of landscaped gardens, with a very large swimming pool and private tennis court. The property is ideal for anyone looking for tranquillity and privacy, within close proximity of local amenities: the beach is one of the best in Marbella. Charming and very Spanish, the town of San Pedro de Alcantra is two minutes drive away whilst Puerto Banus with its super yachts, designer shops and fine dining restaurants is five minutes and thriving Marbella is a ten minutes drive. The historic cities of Ronda, Malaga, Sevilla and Jerez are all within reach. The location is also a golfer’s paradise, with the 45-hole Guadalmina Golf Course only a few minutes away; and there are now more than 60 golf courses, to suit all levels, between Malaga and Sotogrande on the Costa del Sol – most set in beautiful surroundings with views of the sea and mountains. The famous beauty spas in the area can also provide some wonderfully self-indulgent pampering.
The villa’s immaculate mature garden includes a 17-metre-long horizon swimming pool; for a small supplement, it can be heated to tempt you in at any time of the year. The pool house has a range of children’s toys, plus a shower and WC. There is also a fully equipped barbecue area. The sunken tennis court has seating for spectators, and a charming gazebo includes a drinks fridge.
Built “cortijo” style around an Andalucian courtyard, this villa has state-of-art fixtures and is richly decorated with local and far eastern antiques, offering stylish and comfortable and generous living space. Most of rooms open onto patios or terraces. There is a very spacious open-plan drawing room (with a large log fireplace for winter evenings) and formal dining room, looking out over the swimming pool and lawn garden beyond; whilst a smaller, cosier sitting room is equipped with a large flat screen TV, DVD player and DVD library. The very well equipped Christian’s kitchen (with breakfast area and television corner with sofa) plus a smaller dining room, both lead out onto terraces, ideal for sunny breakfasts or summer entertaining. All six en-suite bedrooms are of a very generous size, with the master bedroom suite boasting his and hers bathrooms and separate dressing rooms, along with its own private sitting room and 20-sq-metre sun terrace. There is also a large study/home office (with computer and printer) and a spacious basement room fully equipped as a gym and home cinema. Air-conditioning and central heating (under-floor), plus logs for open fires, are included in the rental. The house is equipped with Wi-Fi internet access. This is a gated property and it has four car-parking spaces under cover.
