At Benarroch Real Estate, we are launching a new editorial and audiovisual series entitled Villas you would like to live in. A format designed for a very specific purpose: to help you understand a villa beyond its square metres, its price or its qualities.
Because it’s not just about seeing a house, it’s about imagining your life in it.
This series was born from a question we often hear:
‘The house is spectacular, but… what is it really like to live here?’
In each episode, we take a realistic look at luxury villas in Marbella, Benahavís and Estepona. We analyse the property itself, but also the surroundings, privacy, light, access, nearby amenities and those details that don’t always appear in the technical specifications, but which make all the difference when you’re thinking about living in a place.
For the first episode, we have chosen Benahavís, one of the most sought-after municipalities for the purchase of luxury villas near Marbella.
This is no coincidence. Here, views, tranquillity and a feeling of space that is difficult to find closer to the coast come together.
The villa is located in Paraíso Alto, an elevated residential area where privacy is evident from the moment you arrive. The surroundings complement the architecture and reinforce the feeling of being in a place designed for peaceful living.
The property has 919 m² of floor space on a 1,364 m² plot, distributed over three levels.
But beyond the numbers, what defines this villa is the way it is designed.
Contemporary architecture, clean lines and large windows that do not seek to take centre stage, but rather to frame the landscape. The sea is a constant feature, integrating itself as a natural part of the home.
The main floor is the heart of the house. A spacious living room with several seating areas connects naturally to a designer open-plan kitchen equipped with a central island.
It is not a space designed to impress, but to be used. For leisurely breakfasts, long afternoons and gatherings that flow without unnecessary compartmentalisation.
When the living room is fully opened up, the interior and exterior become one space. Terraces surround the house and the infinity pool sets the visual rhythm of the whole, always with the sea as a backdrop.
Here it is easy to imagine everyday life: bright mornings, sunny afternoons and balmy evenings where silence and views take centre stage.
The villa has five en-suite bedrooms and six bathrooms, all designed with the same approach: privacy, natural light and connection with the outside.
The master suite, located on the upper floor, has a dressing room, spa-style bathroom and a private terrace from which to start the day with unobstructed sea views.
The lower level expands the possibilities of the property. A cinema room, bar, gym with natural light and garage complete an area designed for enjoyment without leaving home, maintaining the same architectural language as the rest of the villa.
Paraíso Alto is one of the most highly valued residential areas in Benahavís due to its balance between tranquillity and proximity. From here, you have easy access to golf courses, international schools, beaches, Puerto Banús and the centre of Marbella.
When you return home, the pace changes. And that, for many buyers, is key.
This luxury villa in Benahavís perfectly represents the approach of the Villas you would like to live in series.
It is not just a well-designed or well-located property. It is a house that, as you calmly walk through it, invites you to take the next mental step: it is not just about seeing a house, but imagining your life in it.
And that is exactly the aim of this series.
