Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Surrounded by woodland, flowers, lakes and wildlife, you may question whether you really are just ten minutes from Marbella here, but this luxurious villa offers the best of both worlds. Set within peaceful private grounds, you can enjoy the seclusion of your own garden, complete with a pretty patio area and outdoor pool. Spend sunny mornings drinking coffee on the outdoor sofa and swimming in the cooling water while you plan the day ahead. When it comes to things to see and do, the options are endless. Fancy a chilled-out day at home? You have your own private spa with an indoor pool, Jacuzzi, and sauna, plus a home cinema in the basement for those days that are all about self-care. If the bright lights of Marbella are calling your name, jump in the car and make the short journey to Puerto Banus to indulge in a little retail therapy or some beach time. The home is also surrounded by world-class golf courses, perfect for a day on the putting green whether you're a seasoned pro or want to learn the basics. However you choose to spend your time, there's no better way to end the day than with a family... dinner. Fire up the barbecue and cook some fresh local seafood, then tuck in around the dining table as the sun sets over the garden. Before bed, enjoy a long hot soak in the luxurious circular bathtub.
