Villa for sale in Nueva Andalucia

A rooftop jacuzzi and, two floors below it, a full spa with sauna, steam room and Turkish bath: Villa Monte Blanco spans an unusually complete range of registers across 1,112 m2 built, in Nueva Andalucía's Golf Valley.

Southwest-facing on a 2,531 m2 plot, the villa has six bedroom suites, eight bathrooms and 361 m2 of terraces, with sea and mountain views from the upper floors. On the main living level, an open-plan kitchen, dining area and sitting room share one line towards the garden, connected by large doors to covered terraces and the pool. Underfloor heating, home automation and a lift between floors support daily life at this scale.

The bedroom floors give each of the six suites its own bathroom and separation from the social spaces, while the rooftop terrace adds the jacuzzi and a wider outlook.

Below the living level, the register changes entirely: spa, sauna, steam room, Turkish bath, gym, cinema, a games room, a bar and a wine cellar occupy the lower floor, with laundry, utility and storage rooms kept away from the entertaining areas.

The villa is sold furnished and fitted with solar panels. Shops, schools, Puerto Banús and the beach are all within driving distance, in a valley shaped by its surrounding golf courses.

This isn't a low-maintenance, discreet villa: its value depends on actually using the spa, cinema, gym and entertaining floor. Without that intention, 1,112 m2 becomes more space, and more running cost, than most households need.
