Mature grounds, natural stone and four en-suite bedrooms in Atalaya

Three hundred and eighty-six square metres of built area, 120 square metres of terrace and a 1,206 square metre plot define the scale of this resale property. For buyers comparing houses on the western Costa del Sol, this 4 bedroom detached villa with private pool in Atalaya combines contemporary white architectural volumes with a garden that is already grown.

Arrival court, plot and planting

The approach sets the tone before the front door is reached. A private landscaped arrival court and dedicated parking sit at the entrance, framed by mature olive trees, elongated cypresses, lavender and rosemary. A 1,206 square metre plot gives genuine separation from neighbouring houses, and established trees provide immediate screening and shade without the ten-year wait common to newly planted gardens.

Pool deck, teak platform and dining terrace

Outside, the 120 square metres of terrace divide the garden into distinct working areas. The private pool is bordered by a main deck that steps onto a teak sunbathing platform, with an outdoor shower made from raw Corten steel set against the greenery. For meals outside, a covered al fresco dining area fitted with oversized rattan pendant lights provides shelter from the midday sun. When viewing, it is worth checking how the sun tracks across the teak platform and the covered dining space in the late afternoon.

Materials, appliances and bedroom layout

Inside, the house relies on permanent materials rather than decoration: travertine marble, natural stone and fine woods are used alongside handcrafted finishes. The kitchen and service areas are fitted with Miele appliances throughout. All four bedrooms are en-suite, taking the total number of bathrooms to four and ensuring that family members or visiting guests each have a private bathroom. Although the photography and current presentation feature restored vintage pieces, the villa is sold unfurnished. A buyer should bear this in mind when planning a move, as the rooms will be handed over bare, allowing you to bring your own furniture while keeping the stone, wood and Miele fixtures that are fixed to the building.
