Casa Palmeras

El Paraiso, Estepona East

SEVEN BEDROOMS

In the established, quiet area of El Paraíso on Estepona’s New Golden Mile, this contemporary seven-bedroom villa is private and easy to live in. It sits on a plot of nearly 2,000 square metres, surrounded by lush, mature planting that screens it from view.

The house faces south-east, so the morning light reaches well into the interior, and every main ground-floor room looks out onto the garden.

Inside, the 772-square-metre interior uses warm natural materials, soft neutral tones and large-format glazing. The open-plan reception and dining areas lead straight onto large covered terraces. The contemporary kitchen is built around a substantial central island and works for both family meals and having guests. All seven bedrooms are ensuite, finished with marble and with terrace access.

The grounds are set up for outdoor living. Around the private swimming pool are sunbathing areas, lawns and a children’s play area, with mature palms around them. A poolside pavilion has space for long lunches and evening gatherings, and there is a jacuzzi built into the pool and a second private jacuzzi on the rooftop terrace. Golf courses, international schools, sandy beaches and the restaurants of Puerto Banús and Marbella are within easy reach.
