The project is one of a private collection set in the prestigious gated community of La Reserva de Alcuzcuz in Benahavís — a secluded natural enclave between forest and sea, just minutes from Marbella and Puerto Banús. This villa unfolds across three levels, carefully integrated into the hillside and oriented towards soft southwestern views. On the main floor, a spacious living, dining, and kitchen area opens seamlessly onto expansive terraces and porches that frame the garden and a swimming pool designed as a still water mirror. The open-plan kitchen is complemented by a separate service kitchen, pantry, and laundry area, while two en-suite guest bedrooms are positioned discreetly on this level alongside the entrance hall and guest WC. Upstairs, the principal suite includes a dressing room, generous bathroom, and direct access to panoramic terraces overlooking the surrounding landscape. Two additional en-suite bedrooms and a flexible living area complete this level, creating a sense of privacy and openness throughout. The lower level integrates the garage, technical and storage rooms, guest and gardener’s facilities, wardrobe space, and a private lift — all thoughtfully concealed beneath the architecture to preserve the calm flow of the home. The villa proposes a seamless in-out lifestyle, where contemporary architecture by Tobal Arquitectos coexists with the surrounding nature in quiet harmony. Floor-to-ceiling glazing draws natural light deep into the interiors, while terraces, landscaped gardens, and water features extend the living experience outward into the landscape. Set within one of the Costa del Sol’s most private and elevated residential communities, the villa is designed for a life defined by space, discretion, and connection to nature — with the beaches, golf courses, and lifestyle destinations of Marbella always within easy reach.
