Villa for sale in Nueva Andalucia

Five hundred and twenty-eight square metres of terrace surround this newly completed villa in the Golf Valley of Nueva Andalucía, set back from the fairways with the pool and gardens facing the mountains beyond.

Alcalá 70 has not been lived in since construction finished. The ground floor is built as one continuous space: kitchen, dining and living areas run together and open onto the terrace and pool without interruption. Five bedrooms are split between the main floor and upper level, each with an en-suite bathroom, and there is a separate guest toilet for daytime use.

The lower level is where the house does most of its work beyond sleeping and living. It holds a gym, a sauna, a wine cellar, an entertainment room and a self-contained guest apartment suited to staff or extended family, along with a laundry room kept away from the main living areas.

Outside, the 528 m² of terracing is arranged in stages around the pool, with a jacuzzi and both covered and open areas for shade through the day. The 1,727 m² plot gives the garden room to breathe, and parking is provided for four cars.

Golf Valley takes its name seriously: Las Brisas, Los Naranjos and Aloha are all within a few minutes, and Puerto Banús and central Marbella are a short drive along the same roads that serve the valley's shops and restaurants.

The villa faces north-east, which means the terraces and pool get morning and midday sun rather than the golden late-afternoon light more common on south-facing plots in the valley. It is a trade some buyers make deliberately, for cooler afternoons through July and August; others should view at different times of day before deciding.
