Approved Contemporary Villa Project by Santiago Lloreda Márquez
The approved villa project has been designed by renowned architect Santiago Lloreda Márquez, with a contemporary architectural concept that combines clean lines, timeless elegance, functionality, and sophisticated Mediterranean living.
Distributed across three carefully considered levels, the proposed villa has been designed to maximise natural light, privacy, panoramic views, and the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Expansive living areas, floor-to-ceiling glazing, generous terraces, and carefully positioned openings allow the architecture to naturally respond to the south-facing orientation and landscape surrounding.
The result is a modern family residence designed around light, space, privacy, and outdoor living.
Six-Bedroom Luxury Villa with Exceptional Living Spaces
The proposed residence includes six spacious en-suite bedrooms, five additional bathrooms, and a guest toilet, providing generous accommodation for both residents and guests.
The open-plan living and dining areas are designed to flow seamlessly onto the expansive outdoor terraces, creating versatile spaces for entertaining, al fresco dining, relaxing, and enjoying the Mediterranean climate throughout the year.
Large floor-to-ceiling windows will flood the interiors with natural light while framing the surrounding countryside and mountain scenery. The combination of substantial interior volumes and extensive outdoor areas creates a sophisticated contemporary home with a strong connection to its natural surroundings.
Private Wellness Area and 522 m2 of Terraces
Wellness is an integral part of the villa concept. The project includes a private spa and wellness area with a sauna and Turkish bath, providing residents with a dedicated environment for relaxation and rejuvenation.
The villa also benefits from an impressive 522 m2 of terraces, offering multiple outdoor living and entertaining areas. These spaces have been carefully incorporated into the architectural design to maximise privacy, views, sunlight, and year-round outdoor living.
From morning coffee overlooking the hills to sunset entertaining with family and friends, the terraces are designed to become a natural extension of the interior living spaces.
Four-Car Garage and Practical Luxury
Beyond its striking architecture and lifestyle features, the villa has been designed with everyday practicality in mind. A covered four-car garage provides secure parking and convenient direct access to the residence.
Extensive storage and service areas are integrated into the design, allowing the property to function equally well as a permanent family residence, a second home, or an exclusive luxury holiday retreat in Benahavís.
El Madroñal, Benahavís – Privacy, Security and Nature
El Madroñal is one of the most exclusive gated residential communities in the Benahavís area. Controlled access and 24-hour security provide residents with a high level of privacy and peace of mind, while the estate's large individual plots and mature Mediterranean landscaping create a low-density residential environment.
One of the community's defining characteristics is its natural setting. Surrounded by cork oak forests, pine trees, olive groves, and protected woodland, El Madroñal offers direct access to scenic hiking and cycling routes.
Its elevated position also provides a peaceful atmosphere and cooler summer conditions while remaining within easy reach of Marbella, Puerto Banus, San Pedro Alcántara, Estepona, and the wider Costa del Sol.
Close to Marbella, Golf Courses and International Schools
Despite its private and secluded setting, the plot is conveniently located for many of the Costa del Sol's most sought-after amenities.
The picturesque village of Benahavís, widely known for its gastronomic scene, is just a short drive away, with renowned restaurants including Los Abanicos, Amanhavis, and Restaurante Rufino.
Nearby San Pedro Alcántara provides supermarkets, cafés, boutique shopping, everyday services, and additional dining options, while Marbella and Puerto Banus offer an extensive selection of luxury shopping, restaurants, beach clubs, and international amenities.
Golf enthusiasts are particularly well positioned, with prestigious courses including La Quinta Golf & Country Club, Los Arqueros Golf, Marbella Club Golf Resort, and Los Flamingos Golf all within easy reach.
Families benefit from access to several established international schools, including Aloha College, Laude San Pedro International College, Atalaya International School, and Swans International School.
Excellent connections via the A-7 and AP-7 provide convenient access to Marbella, Puerto Banus, Estepona, the beaches of the Costa del Sol, and Málaga International Airport.
