Madroñal 72

This is a villa that earns its price through specificity rather than excess — the mountain integration, the security infrastructure, and the disciplined layout make it a credible primary residence rather than a seasonal asset. At 715m² built on 5,000m² in El Madroñal, the land-to-build ratio is generous and the southerly orientation maximises utility year-round. Buyers with security requirements or a genuine preference for privacy over proximity to resort amenities will find few alternatives at this level on the coast.

Privacy

Privacy is exceptionally strong — El Madroñal's topography, large plot size, and mountain-integrated architecture combine to create natural seclusion that the gated perimeter reinforces rather than substitutes for.

Security

The armed security provision with a sub-five-minute response time is genuinely unusual in Spain and reflects El Madroñal's status as one of the coast's most rigorously controlled residential communities; this is operational security, not a marketing feature.

Views & Setting

South-facing on an elevated Benahavis plot, panoramic sea views are a given at this address — what distinguishes this specific position is the mountain backdrop behind, which frames the outlook and removes any sense of exposure.

Build Quality

The structural integration into the mountain is not an aesthetic choice alone — it has meaningful climate and acoustic consequences, and combined with underfloor heating throughout, a heated salt-water infinity pool, and a full smart home system, the specification reads as genuinely considered rather than superficially appointed.

Layout

The three-level vertical zoning — private master domain above, social and guest spaces at garden level, garage and office below — is logically resolved and avoids the circulation compromises common in hillside villas of this scale.
