Villa in La Capellania, Benalmadena

Set on a short, quiet cul-de-sac in a secure residential area, this four-bedroom family villa enjoys sea and mountain views and a fabulous south-westerly orientation. Off-road parking leads to a large walled front yard with an above-ground pool and several sitting areas, while manicured, easy-care gardens wrap around three sides. A straight staircase climbs to a private solarium with panoramic views over the sea and mountains.

The main home is all on one level, with three large double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a semi-open-plan kitchen and living area with a real fire. This opens onto a very large covered terrace enclosed by glass curtains, so it can be used comfortably all year round. Below sits an independent apartment with a living room, open-plan kitchen, bathroom and an en-suite double bedroom, ideal for guests or extended family. Other details include air conditioning, fitted wardrobes, marble flooring, a storage room, a utility room and fibre optic internet. The community is currently refurbishing the communal pool, and the cost has already been accounted for.
