Villa for sale in La Quinta

The kitchen is what most visitors remember first at Villa Agata: a run of clean lines, premium materials and a large central island, tucked into custom cabinetry that hides most of the storage from view. The villa itself has just been renovated, with interiors by Soledad Merchant, in La Quinta, Benahavís.

It offers 501 m2 built on a 1,109 m2 plot, with five bedrooms, five bathrooms and two guest toilets, facing south with sea views that reach across the surrounding hillside.

The main living area is bright and open, with floor-to-ceiling glass and custom shelving that moves the eye smoothly toward the terrace. The dining zone and lounge next to it are set up for everyday use as much as for hosting, without one crowding out the other.

Direct sightlines run from the kitchen through to the living room, and access to the terraces and pool is seamless rather than a separate trip outside, among the strongest parts of the layout. Five bedrooms are well proportioned throughout, and the principal suite keeps its own view of the water.

La Quinta's golf courses and restaurants are close by, with Puerto Banús a short drive.

The renovation is finished and the design decisions already made, which is much of the value in a resale like this. On the honest side, 155 m2 of terraces is a modest outdoor allowance for a five-bedroom villa, so life outside tends to gather around the pool deck rather than spread across several separate zones.
