Four-Bed Hillside Detached House with Pool and Sea Views, Monte Mayor, Benahavis

Tucked into the hills above Marbella and Estepona, this 415 m² house in La Heredia de Monte Mayor is one of the standout homes in this quiet, gated community. A 172 m² terrace wraps around views of the Mediterranean and the mountains beyond, giving you real distance from the coast without losing quick access to it. The A-7 is close by, so Marbella and Estepona are both a short drive away, along with the beach, several golf courses, international schools, supermarkets and hospitals. It’s a rare balance: peace and privacy, with everyday convenience never far off.

Step inside, and the house feels instantly lived-in and warm. Every room is well-proportioned and bright, and the living room flows straight into the dining area, both opening onto the huge private terrace with a BBQ zone and a chill-out corner, built for long evenings outside. From there, the views stretch across the sea and the mountains, down to your own pool and garden. The kitchen faces north, with a large window onto the patio, which keeps it naturally cool. The main level has one bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, a guest toilet, and a laundry room. Upstairs, the master suite has its own en-suite and walk-in wardrobe, plus direct access to a second, larger terrace with sweeping coastal views. Two further en-suite bedrooms are on this floor, bringing the home to four bedrooms and four bathrooms in total. Below the house, a path leads down to a large private pool, partly shaded for hot afternoons, and a few steps further down, a herb garden offers a quiet spot to sit. Underfloor heating and air conditioning run throughout, so the house works in every season.
