This stunning property is one of the best of its kind. The sole owners of some 20 years ordered a full, bespoke build to the very highest standards using the best materials and craftsmanship available with no fixed budget. The outcome of the time, effort and expenditure was simply spectacular. You could not build this property today for less than €7.5 million.

Without hesitation, this thoughtfully designed villa, based on an Italian country residence, provides the next owner with an exceptional opportunity. For those seeking a truly unique, generously proportioned residence that is private, well located and with far reaching views, this could be the one.

The overall sense of quality is evident throughout and following a significant investment into a top-notch, initial build, packed with quality fixture and fittings, the property is now offered for sale requiring a little love, attention and investment.

The main house is configured as five bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms distributed over three floors and provides a varied and wide range of dining, lounge, seating, living and entertaining areas most of which overlook the infinity pool and the multiple terraced areas with near infinity and beyond views. There is opportunity to extend the number of bedrooms and bathrooms if required, with straightforward and relatively low-cost changes to the existing footprint.

On entering the property, you will find a generous and equally stunning, double height entrance hall leading to the well-crafted open plan lounge-kitchen-dining room with walk-in pantry, leading to an impressive indoor-outdoor terrace. From the kitchen-lounge areas, there is access to the office, formal lounge with feature fireplace, study/fifth bedroom and guest bathroom.

The upper floor accommodates two equally impressive bedrooms, both with large ensuites and a primary suite currently configured as a wing comprising of a generous bedroom, two bathrooms and a dressing room. It would be relatively easy to convert the property back to four bedrooms and four bathrooms on this floor.

From the office, a grand staircase leads to the lower floor where you will find a generous and well-planned entertainment room packed with many features and a fully fitted out bar. Off this area there's a cinema room, fully equipped gymnasium, pool changing bathroom, utility room and storage room.

Externally to the villa, there is a stunning, 120 square meter pool set-up, several sunbathing and dining terraces, a pool side bathroom as mentioned, a BBQ and bar with dining terrace. For those wanting to build a tree house, we have just the perfect tree to start your dream located 20 meters from the property entrance. In fact, there's probably 20+ "perfect trees".

A short walk away or a super quick drive, sees you at the entrance to the Italian inspired country guest house. This property is equally as impressive as the main house and is stacked with feature rich materials, design elements and thoughtful touches. For example, the entire structure was made from local, supersized stones that were individually cut to size, by hand. The owners inform me that the time it took to build the cottage was close to that of the main house and it's easy to see why.

The grounds of the property are a blank canvas and could become whatever your heart desires be that the ultimate country estate garden, an equestrian or animal sanctuary, space for sports activities (par 3 golf, quad bikes, motocross, running etc) for business (a wellbeing retreat, glamping, a wedding venue etc) or just leave as is and enjoy the peace and tranquillity.

The property has two access driveways, both concrete, there is sufficient hard standing for 15 plus cars. There is a 3-car garage, that could, with permission be converted into an apartment, several guest bedrooms or office, numerous outbuildings, a top of the range diesel generator and a storage container.

The villa is minutes from the centre of Alhaurín El Grande. Mijas, La Cala, Fuengirola are within an easy 20-25 mins, Malaga Airport 20 mins and Marbella just 30 mins. There are endless beaches and numerous golf courses within 10-20 mins and the extensive and wide variety of high-quality restaurants in the local vicinity.
