Ref.: R5311561

This charming 5 bedroom Andalucian villa is nestled in the exclusive enclave of Puerto de Los Almendros in Benahavis, surrounded by nature but still close to schools, supermarkets and town.. The property has been a much loved family home for over 4 decades, offering privacy, plenty of open space, the most beautiful South West facing panoramic views across the coast and independent guest or staff accommodation. Built in 1982 this home is a true reflection of Andalucian architecture with traditional features including terracotta tiled roofing, marble flooring, authentic Andalucian wall tiles, large fireplace, a stone driveway, and the most beautiful double sized wooden front door. Whilst offering authentic Andalucian charm, the house would benefit from a refurbishment to take it on for the next 40 years. The main house is built over two floors. You are greeted by a lovely entrance hall, with an oversized double aspect fireplace, that gives way to a sunken level sitting room with multiple terrace doors opening up to the pool, terrace and garden area. On this ground level you will also find the kitchen with direct access to the covered terrace and garage, as well as two large bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill bathroom. Both of these bedrooms are bright with plenty of natural light thanks to their independent access to the gardens. Upstairs is a very large master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, plenty of wardrobe space and private terrace with beautiful open views across the coastline. At the end of the garden is an independent 2 bedroom guest house with kitchenette, bathroom and terrace. This separate accommodation is perfect for teenagers, guests or staff, and significantly increases the property's flexibility and potential income should this home be bought for rental investment. The gardens and lawn are easily maintained and peppered with olive trees, cypress trees and bougainvillea, while the west facing pool area offers a pergola with BBQ area and covered terrace overlooking the pool and gardens. There is a garage with direct access to the kitchen and parking for a further 4 or 5 cars on the driveway. This home represents an outstanding opportunity in a location that sees few houses come on to the market. Due to its size, orientation and layout, this house would make an ideal family home, a premium rental investment, or a combination of both for the client looking for a holiday home with solid rental potential. San Pedro town is just over 5 mins away, the closest supermarket is under 5 mins away. Malaga airport is only 45 mins away.
