Renovated Andalusian Villa, El Rosario, Marbella East

Renovated 5-bedroom Andalusian villa for sale in El Rosario, Marbella East, with a central patio, private pool and a large basement ready to be personalised. Villa Los Pinos has been renovated throughout, keeping its traditional architecture and original wooden beams while bringing the interiors up to a modern standard. With 6 bathrooms and generous living space, it is offered turnkey and ready to move into.

The entrance leads to a central patio with terracotta floors and an olive tree, which links the main living areas and brings natural light into the hallways. The living room is the centrepiece of the house, with a high pitched ceiling, original exposed beams, a fireplace and large windows looking out to the pool and garden. The kitchen sits alongside it, finished with a central island, wood-toned cabinetry and a window seat, and both rooms open directly onto the covered terrace. A concealed door in the kitchen leads through to the laundry and utility areas.

The main suite occupies the upper level and enjoys sea and mountain views from its own private terrace. It has a walk-in dressing room and a bright bathroom with twin basins and a walk-in shower. Three further bedrooms are joined by a separate office, which could easily become another bedroom for family or guests.

Outside, the covered terrace looks over the swimming pool, a sunken lounge with a fire table and a lawned garden framed by tall hedges and palms. An outdoor kitchen with a barbecue sits beneath a vine-covered pergola, and a thatched pavilion at the far end of the garden gives a shaded place to sit in the afternoon.

Below the house, the basement and garage provide a large open level with real potential. Concept designs show how it could be turned into a private gym, sauna, hammam, guest suite or a car gallery, shaped entirely around the next owner’s lifestyle.
