The silence is usually the first thing people notice here. Pine trees, open views and very little beyond the sound of nature, while Marbella remains less than ten minutes away.

Located within the gated community of El Madroñal, this contemporary villa sits on a 3,000 m² plot surrounded by mature greenery and mountain views. Built in 2018, the property combines clean architectural lines with natural materials, creating spaces that feel warm, comfortable and connected to their surroundings.

Large windows bring the landscape into almost every room, while the layout has been designed for everyday living as much as for entertaining. The main house offers four en-suite bedrooms, a guest bathroom and a spacious open-plan living area that connects directly to the terraces and gardens.

The kitchen is finished to a high standard and complemented by a separate service kitchen, particularly useful when hosting larger gatherings or extended family visits.

A generous office enjoys morning light and open valley views, while practical features such as a wine cellar and a three-car garage make the property work comfortably throughout the year.

The independent guest house follows the same approach, offering two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, its own kitchen and a separate living area. It provides privacy for guests without feeling disconnected from the main residence.

Outside, life naturally moves towards the terraces and gardens for much of the year. The swimming pool sits at the centre of the outdoor spaces, surrounded by mature trees, shaded areas and several quiet corners designed for spending time outdoors without interruption.

Comfort has been integrated from the beginning, with underfloor heating throughout, aerothermal energy, air conditioning, smart home technology, triple glazing, walk-in wardrobes, electric blinds and generous storage space.

El Madroñal remains one of the quieter residential communities on the Costa del Sol. International schools, golf courses, restaurants and everyday amenities are all within easy reach, while the coastline remains close enough without becoming part of the view.

Properties in El Madroñal ‌have ‌always ‌attracted ‌buyers ‌looking for ‌privacy ‌first. ‌The fact ‌that Marbella, San Pedro and ‌the ‌coast are only ‌minutes away is ‌what ‌makes ‌the ‌location ‌work ‌so ‌well.

In an English Country Garden, in a beautiful Country House you think of beautiful flowers like hydrangea, foxglove, sea pea, roses, and well kept lawns, but, here in Spain we are going to present the Spanish version and it is normally called a Finca or Cortijo , full of vibrant buganvilla, oleanders, hibiscus, jacarandas, night scented stock, jazmin so colourful and always with a clear blue sky.

This Country House has the beauty of everything as you are in the Countryside but only 10 mins drive down to the Coast, 10 mins either way to the centre of Fuengirola or La Cala de Mijas and less then 30 mins to the centre of Marbella or Malaga Airport.

But back to the sitting room now for a minute and this leads out to a covered terrace and on to your well groomed lawn, ideal for a game of croquet follwed by a pims by the pool. Those of you who are into gardening the lawn has Bermuda grass. To the left of the lawn you will find the relaxing pool and chillout area. On a lower level behind the pool who will find the secret vegetable garden.
