Details

Absolutely fabulous 5 bedroom ultra modern, architect designed villa nestling in over an acre of glorious landscaped gardens with amazing pool, while enjoying far reaching countryside views from its prestigious location in Marbella Club Golf Resort, Benahavis.

The 523 m2 contemporary-style property beautifully combines the fluidity of water with a smartly passive design featuring high thermal mass exposed concrete. Approaching the house through a landscaped tree-lined driveway, with a 500-year-old olive tree and a lush yucca, there is a natural bamboo bridge floating over water, leading to the grand entrance, where a breathtaking sight unfolds.

A magnificent 20-foot-tall ficus bonsai stands serenely in a reflective pool, playfully engaged with a waterfall and the filtered sunlight from a glass ceiling above. The influence of architectural legends Frank Lloyd Wright and Mies van der Rohe is evident in the design, with seemingly floating on multiple water bodies that gracefully run through the house.

A floating bridge connects the east and west wings, housing the private suites and a study adorned with memorabilia from around the world, including a piece of the moon. This residence caters to various interests, whether you're a football fan, a golfer, a music enthusiast, or a Tintin and Captain Haddock aficionado.

The main suite is a marvel, featuring two separate dressers with an interconnected design by Italian house Febal Casa. These dressers open up to a private garden with majestic conifers and the scent of wild jasmines, creating a royal dressing experience in front of a floor-to-ceiling back-lit mirror. The shower area in the suite is nothing short of spectacular, boasting a retractable glass ceiling for a unique midnight bath under the stars. Luxurious bronze Noken accessories add to the opulence of the modern linear design.

Continuing through the house on dark oak wide panels, there is a master bed that inclines, massages, and even charges your phone. The ambience is enhanced by the warm glow of two gorgeous Tom Dixon melt lights in a rust orange hue. Within the property, there is a serene Japanese garden, providing the perfect spot to reflect over a cup of green matcha tea. A melting mirror hanging from the concrete ceiling creates a whimsical effect, reminiscent of Alice's adventures in Wonderland.

Crossing a floating bridge with a waterfall on one side and a thick green moss-covered wall on the other, you are transported to a magical world, where rolling hills beyond a single pane of glass further add to the enchanting experience.

The living spaces are designed for comfort and elegance, with a cosy living room featuring a fireplace and ample natural light. The house is adorned with top brands and products, including Italian wall art made of stabilised moss, and ADL Mitica Collection doors,

Spain Property Buying Guide

1. Putting down a Holding Deposit

On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner. This part of the process is not binding. We would recommend using an independent English speaking legal advisor. Once a purchase price has been agreed, normally a holding or reserve deposit will be required to ensure the property is removed from the market. The sum required will vary between properties and will be based on the purchase price. A time limit for the preagreement to be signed will be arranged and there will also be legal checks to be made.

2. Setting up a Pre-agreement (Contrato privado de compraventa)

The pre-agreement will set out the conditions under which the Buyer and Seller agree to complete the purchase of the property and the price they have agreed upon. Relevant details will generally be included for example the property details, purchase price and the date for completion. A deposit will be required at this point, this will vary, but will generally be 10% of the agreed price. This agreement will include a penal clause if the sale does not go through. If the seller pulls out of the sale your compensation will be double the deposit you have paid, but if you decide not to go through with the sale then your deposit will be lost. Certain checks will need to be made before signing the contract, checks should be made against the title of the property, mortgage status and if the property has any debts held against it. The planning status should also be looked into. These conditions can be varied by the seller and the buyer and other types of agreement can be made.

3. The Contract (Escritura de compraventa)

Before a non-Spanish purchaser can buy a Spanish property they will need to have set up a Spanish bank account and obtained a Spanish tax number (NIE). The completion will take place in the presence of a Notary Public. This is a Spanish public official, by law the deed of sale must be witnessed by a Notary Public. You will also need your own independent, expert legal advisor to act on your behalf. On Completion the buyer must pay the balance, that is the price agreed after the deposit has been deducted, plus any other fees on the completion date. Both buyer and seller must sign the Escritura de compraventa contract, (this is the Spanish equivalent of the title deeds). The title deeds (escritura) will be given to the buyer, this will be done in the presence of a Notary Public, they will certify that the transfer has taken place. The tax office will be sent a copy and the property registry will be informed of the transfer.
