Elevated Living in Puerto del Almendro

Positioned within the established residential enclave of Puerto del Almendro in Benahavís, this contemporary villa offers a measured balance of privacy, scale, and open views across the surrounding hills toward the Mediterranean. Set within a peaceful hillside setting yet within easy reach of Marbella and the coast, the property combines architectural clarity with everyday functionality. Its orientation ensures strong natural light throughout the day, while the elevated position enhances both outlook and discretion — a defining quality of this particular neighbourhood.

The villa extends across approximately 600 m² of built space, arranged over multiple levels to maximise both volume and separation between social and private areas. The main living level is structured around a generous open-plan lounge and dining space, where large-format glazing frames the landscape and allows light to penetrate deep into the interior. Clean architectural lines and restrained material choices define the aesthetic, favouring proportion and flow over ornamentation. The kitchen is fully fitted and integrated into the principal living space, designed to support both daily family use and informal entertaining. Bedrooms are distributed to allow privacy, with en-suite bathrooms in the principal suites, reinforcing the home’s suitability for long-term residence.

Outdoor living forms a central part of the villa’s identity. Expansive terraces step outward from the main living areas, creating distinct zones for dining, relaxation, and sun exposure. The private swimming pool is positioned to capture the open views while maintaining seclusion from neighbouring properties. Landscaped garden areas soften the architectural geometry and provide additional usable exterior space. The elevated plot enhances airflow and visual depth, while maintaining a strong connection between interior spaces and the surrounding natural terrain.

Puerto del Almendro is valued for its quiet, residential character and its strategic location between San Pedro de Alcántara and Benahavís village. The area benefits from proximity to golf courses, international schools, and daily amenities, while offering a more tranquil atmosphere than coastal front-line locations. Road access allows for straightforward connectivity to Puerto Banús and Marbella’s Golden Mile, making the property well positioned for both permanent living and second-home ownership.

This villa is suited to buyers seeking a contemporary home in a secure hillside environment without sacrificing accessibility to the coast. Its scale and layout accommodate family living, remote working, and seasonal hosting with equal ease. For those prioritising open views, architectural simplicity, and privacy within a proven residential area, Puerto del Almendro remains a consistent choice.
