Villa Léa - Modern Villa in El Herrojo

This modern villa for sale in El Herrojo, La Quinta, Benahavís, offers six bedrooms, six en-suite bathrooms and a guest toilet across three levels, with 540 m² of built space on a 1,090 m² private plot. South-facing and presented in excellent condition, the fully furnished residence combines contemporary interiors with a private tropical garden, swimming pool, rooftop jacuzzi, staff accommodation and extensive leisure spaces. Its position within the established El Herrojo residential area places La Quinta Golf & Country Club approximately two minutes away, while The Westin La Quinta Golf Resort & Spa can be reached on foot.

The main level has been designed around open, comfortable family living, with the kitchen, dining and lounge areas forming the social centre of the home. The kitchen is equipped with Siemens appliances and connects naturally with the dining area, while large openings extend the living spaces directly towards the garden and swimming pool. Modern tiled flooring and clean architectural lines establish the contemporary character of the interior, balanced by a wooden staircase that introduces warmth and texture.

Indoor and outdoor areas have been designed to work together throughout the year. The villa’s southern orientation provides excellent sunlight around the garden and pool, while established tropical landscaping creates a greater sense of privacy. A rear terrace incorporates a built-in outdoor kitchen and barbecue area, providing a dedicated space for al fresco dining and entertaining. The swimming pool forms the focal point of the exterior and remains visually connected with the principal living areas.

Three en-suite bedrooms are positioned on the first floor, separating the main sleeping accommodation from the social areas below. Each provides private bathroom facilities and comfortable proportions for family members or guests. Above this level, the roof terrace creates a more secluded outdoor environment with a private jacuzzi, offering an additional area for relaxing away from the principal garden and pool.

The lower floor significantly expands the functionality of the property and has been conceived as much more than a conventional basement. Two further bedrooms are complemented by a cinema room, games room and separate TV lounge, allowing different leisure activities to take place simultaneously. A wine cellar adds another dedicated entertaining feature, while laundry facilities and storage provide the practical spaces required for a substantial family residence. The villa includes two dedicated storage rooms in total.

Separate staff accommodation provides additional flexibility. The staff apartment benefits from independent access, allowing it to function without interfering with the family’s main living areas. Depending on the owner’s requirements, this space could also provide additional private accommodation for guests or extended family.

Comfort and technology have been carefully integrated throughout the property. Underfloor heating extends across the home and is complemented by air conditioning and double glazing for year-round climate control. A comprehensive home automation system, integrated speakers and alarm system add convenience and security, while automatic irrigation simplifies the maintenance of the tropical gardens. A lift connects the different levels, making movement around the three-storey residence straightforward.

Parking has also been considered for a property designed to accommodate family and guests. A private garage provides secure covered parking, with additional exterior space for up to four vehicles.

El Herrojo is one of the established residential enclaves surrounding La Quinta, characterised predominantly by substantial private villas, mature landscaping and a peaceful hillside environment. Its location is particularly attractive to buyers who want to remain close to golf while maintaining convenient access to everyday services.

Golf is central to the lifestyle in La Quinta.

The Westin La Quinta Golf Resort & Spa is also within walking distance, offering additional dining, wellness and leisure facilities close to home.

Its town centre and boulevard add further dining and recreational options, while the nearby coastline provides access to beaches and the seafront promenade. La Quinta’s position also allows convenient connections towards Nueva Andalucía and Benahavís Pueblo.

Families considering the property for permanent residence have access to several established international schools within driving distance, including Aloha College and Atalaya International School. The surrounding area also provides tennis, paddle, fitness and wellness facilities, complementing the sporting amenities available at La Quinta itself.

Road connections provide straightforward access towards the coast and surrounding residential areas, with the A-7 and AP-7 connecting the property to Málaga Airport and destinations along the Costa del Sol. Private transport remains the most practical option for everyday life in El Herrojo, reflecting the area’s low-density villa environment.

This fully furnished villa for sale in El Herrojo combines generous family accommodation with extensive leisure facilities and a location closely connected to La Quinta Golf.
