A south-facing villa in Puerto del Almendro, Benahavís: nine bedrooms, nine en-suite bathrooms, around 1,173 m² built on a 7,100 m² plot, split between a main residence and an independent guest house. The structure is what makes a property this size usable. Nine bedrooms in one block would be a hotel; here the guest house stands separate, so extended family, staff or long-staying guests have their own front door and their own routine. That separation is the difference between a house you fill once a year and one you can actually live in. The architecture is contemporary Mediterranean — generous volumes, extensive glazing and a natural flow between the interiors and the terraces around them. The hillside position brings light and outlook into ordinary rooms rather than reserving the view for one terrace. Outside, 7,100 m² is estate scale. The grounds are distributed into landscaped terraces with two swimming pools serving different parts of the plot and several distinct viewpoints over the sea, the countryside and the gardens. Access is discreet, via a private driveway with parking for up to eighteen cars — a figure that sounds excessive until you host. 140 m² of terraces, and the views run across the Mediterranean coastline and inland to the mountains. Puerto del Almendro is an established residential enclave: private and quiet, but close to Marbella, Puerto Banús, the golf courses, the international schools and daily services. You get separation without being remote, which on this coast is a narrow band of addresses. A property at this scale is worth walking rather than reading about — the plot and the relationship between the two houses only make sense on the ground. Approximately 1,173 m² built on a 7,100 m² plot, with 140 m² of terraces. Nine bedrooms, ten bathrooms, independent guest house, two outdoor pools, landscaped grounds, parking for up to eighteen vehicles, sea and mountain views.
