Villa in Benalmadena, Malaga

About this place

This spectacular 9-bedroom, 8-bathroom villa for sale in La Capellania, Benalmadena with panoramic views is laid out across a substantial footprint, with the main living areas opening towards the coastline and the rest of the house arranged to allow for more independent use where needed, all within a well-established and highly regarded location. A gated entrance leads into established gardens with a water feature, where mature planting and a combination of covered and open parking sit comfortably within the layout. The house is set across several levels, with the main living areas opening directly onto a south-facing terrace. The central lounge acts as the main space, with a second sitting room with fireplace and a separate TV room providing quieter options when needed. A guest WC and storage are also included on this level. The kitchen sits within the main living area, built around a central island and supported by a separate utility room with additional storage and appliances. The dining area is positioned alongside, with direct access to the terrace. Two guest bedrooms are also on this floor, both with built-in wardrobes and a shared bathroom. Upstairs, the layout becomes more private, with bedrooms opening onto terraces overlooking the garden, pool and coastline. The main suite includes a dressing area and en-suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms and bathrooms are arranged to work comfortably for both family life and guests. At garden level, two independent units sit below the main villa, each with its own entrance and direct access outside. The first has been updated and includes an open kitchen and two en-suite bedrooms, suited to guests or separate use. The second follows a similar distribution and can be adapted depending on how the space is needed, whether for staff, additional accommodation or alternative uses such as a gym or workspace. The pool and main terrace sit directly off the living areas, with the garden falling away to maintain open views towards the sea. A dining and barbecue area is set just beyond, positioned as a fully considered part of the outdoor plan and suited to regular use. This connection between the house and its surroundings carries through into the wider setting. La Capellania remains one of the most established residential areas within Benalmadena, offering a quieter setting with direct access to the coast and surrounding towns. International schools, golf courses and everyday services are all within easy reach, making it well suited to full-time living, while its position and views continue to attract second-home buyers. Proximity to the airport, beaches and nearby centres such as Fuengirola, Marbella and Málaga also supports activity within the rental market, reinforcing the area’s long-term stability. What gives this villa its long-term strength is the way space is managed throughout. The organisation of the home, the independent accommodation and the extent of the grounds give it a level of flexibility that is not easily found, supported by its position within Benalmadena.
