Renovated Villa, Altos del Paraiso, Benahavis

Altos del Paraiso sits within Benahavis, one of the Costa del Sol’s more established inland settings, prized for its mountain scenery, privacy and proximity to golf. The property is a 14-minute drive to Puerto Banus, a 24-minute drive to Marbella Centre, and a 51-minute drive to Malaga Airport. Los Arqueros Golf and Country Club and Atalaya Golf and Country Club are both a nine-minute drive away, placing two courses within easy reach. Families will also find Colegio San Jose an 11-minute drive from the villa and Laude San Pedro a 13-minute drive away. A good selection of restaurants and leisure facilities is also within easy reach, adding day-to-day convenience to the setting. Buyers consistently rate Benahavis among the more desirable inland areas on the Costa del Sol, valued for the balance it offers between countryside privacy and easy access to the coast.

Inside, the living room and dining area flow together around the fireplace, creating a bright, welcoming space suited to both everyday life and entertaining. The kitchen sits apart from the main living area, giving it a self-contained, practical function within the home’s layout. Each of the four bedrooms is en-suite, a configuration that gives family members and guests their own private space, with the single-level design removing the need for stairs anywhere in the home. This layout suits buyers who want the scale of a four-bedroom villa without the demands of a multi-storey property.

Outside, the east-facing gardens and terraces are positioned to catch the morning light, wrapping around a private swimming pool and creating a setting for year-round outdoor living in the Mediterranean climate. The connection between indoor and outdoor space is a deliberate feature of the renovation, with the terraces functioning as an extension of the living areas, not a separate zone. A private sauna adds a wellness element rarely found in villas at this level, while the landscaped gardens frame the pool and give the plot a settled, established feel.

For buyers seeking a single-level villa that pairs Andalusian character with contemporary comfort in Benahavis, this is a well-positioned option close to golf, international schools and the coast. The layout and setting suit families who value privacy and easy day-to-day living in equal measure.
