Villa for sale in Fuente del Espanto, Benahavis

Reference: PRRE-15713

Property Description

This charming classical-style villa is located in the peaceful and sought-after residential area of Fuente del Espanto, just 5 kilometers from the beaches of the Costa del Sol and only 3 kilometers from the vibrant center of San Pedro de Alcántara. Offering an ideal balance between privacy and convenience, the property is close to a wide range of shops, restaurants, and professional services, while enjoying the tranquility of a countryside setting.

Set on a generous plot with sea views from the garden level, this villa welcomes you with a picturesque Andalusian patio featuring a central fountain — the perfect space for greeting guests or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. The traditional character and timeless architecture of the home make it immediately inviting and full of charm.

Inside, the villa offers a spacious and elegant layout. The main lounge boasts high gabled ceilings and is cleverly divided into several ambiences: a cozy sitting area with fireplace, a formal dining space, and a piano lounge — each perfect for both intimate evenings and entertaining. Large windows allow natural light to fill the space, enhancing the warm, classic interior style.

The fully fitted kitchen is designed for comfortable daily use and family gatherings, featuring a breakfast table, a walk-in pantry, and an adjoining laundry room. Three spacious en-suite bedrooms are also located on the main level. The master suite is particularly bright and private, with direct access to the garden — ideal for enjoying fresh air and quiet moments outdoors.

On the lower level, there is an additional bedroom with a private entrance, making it well-suited for guest or staff accommodation. This floor also includes a storage room and a garage with space for two cars. Importantly, this level holds untapped potential and can easily be converted into additional living space — such as a cinema room, gym, or even a self-contained apartment — depending on the future owner’s needs.

The villa is surrounded by a beautifully manicured garden with mature trees, colorful plants, and a private swimming pool. A convenient outdoor parking area adds to the functionality of the home.

What truly sets this property apart is its incredible development potential. The generous plot size offers the rare opportunity to build additional villas, subject to planning permissions, making it an attractive investment for developers or buyers interested in creating a private estate. Alternatively, the existing villa can serve as a rewarding renovation project, allowing you to update and personalize the home while preserving its classic Andalusian charm.

With its combination of charm, space, location, and development potential, this villa is ideal for those looking for a peaceful residence, a family holiday retreat, or an investment opportunity in one of Marbella’s most desirable and well-connected areas.
