Villa Estrecho Azul

How many kitchens does it take for a dinner for twenty to go perfectly? At Villa Estrecho Azul, a new-build luxury villa in El Madroñal, Benahavís, there are four. And from the table you can see the sea all the way to the Strait.

Think of your next celebration here. The guests arrive, the terrace is lit, the fire pit is burning and the infinity pool shines in front of the sea. You are with them, chatting, while the kitchen runs by itself behind you.

Each of the four kitchens has its role. The main one, double height, is for everyday life. The service kitchen and the staff kitchen take care of what you do not want to be seen. And the outdoor one, by the barbecue, is for meals in the open air.

The villa is part of a new project surrounded by golf. It has 1,107 m² built over three levels, on a 3,757 m² plot, a little more than half a football pitch. The views go from the golf course to the sea, and along the coast to Gibraltar and Africa.

By the way, all six bedrooms have their own bathroom and private terrace. Everyone steps out to breakfast with the sea in front of them without running into anyone. Two of them are on the ground floor, comfortable for guests who prefer no stairs.

On the first floor is your master bedroom, with a dressing room, bathroom and its own terrace. Close by you have a study and a library, to work or read in peace. And in the right wing, two more bedrooms with their own bathroom and terrace.

The living room opens straight onto the terrace, with a dining area, lounge and pool. And the windows are electric, they open with a remote. In summer the whole house breathes outwards.

Do you like swimming all year round? Here you have two pools. Outside, a floating infinity pool with jacuzzi and a lush garden around it. Inside, a covered, heated pool for the cooler months.

The lower level is for enjoying. A cinema for movie nights. A wine cellar and a bar for your wines and your friends. A billiard room. And a spa, sauna and gym, both with sea views. It is your own club, without leaving home.

To move between floors you have a lift. Today you use it to carry suitcases. Tomorrow, when the stairs take more effort, it will let you keep enjoying every corner of the house.

The staff have their own apartment, with kitchen, living room and bathroom. They live comfortably and independently. And the family keeps its privacy at home.

It is a smart home. Lights, climate and many functions are controlled from your phone. It has underfloor heating, hot and cold air conditioning, a laundry and a storage room. Everything designed so the house works without you having to think about it.

It is in a gated community, with an alarm and entry phone. You sleep peacefully every night. And when you are travelling, you know the house is still protected.

There is a private garage for three cars, with a charging point for an electric one, and room outside for three more. Plus, a new road connection is about to open and will bring the area even closer.

I have more images and the complete plans. I will send them to you as soon as you write to me.

And before you look at another luxury villa on this website, I want you to know one thing. I am one of the few agents who only sell luxury villas in Marbella over 3 million.

What is more, in this same project there is another very similar villa. And when you like two houses, choosing is hard. I have been comparing luxury villas on this coast for more than twelve years. I put the two side by side, with what changes in views, in price and in how each one fits your life. And you decide with facts, not blindly.

When you work with me, you always talk to me. From the first call to the day I hand you the keys. Have you pictured yourself raising a glass with your friends by the infinity pool, with the Strait in the background? Then write to me. If Villa Estrecho Azul is your home, I will tell you. And if it is not, we will find the one that is together.

A brand-new villa with these views of the Strait rarely waits long. If it suits you, let us talk soon.
