Nine-metre ceilings and a frontline golf plot at Finca Cortesin

Seven hundred and ninety-five square metres of built area, 239 square metres of terrace, and a 2,520 square metre plot set the scale of this property. This 6 bedroom detached villa in Casares stands within the Finca Cortesin resort, directly on the frontline of the golf course with open views across the fairways to the Mediterranean Sea. The exterior has a white facade finished with wooden accents, and floor-to-ceiling windows across both levels bring consistent daylight into the rooms while keeping the coastline and golf course in plain sight.

Double-height volume and two living areas

The architectural centre of the house is the ground-level living area, where the ceiling reaches nine metres in height. Rather than closing off the upper floor, the design places a smaller second living area on the top level that looks directly down over the main room below, functioning like an indoor balcony. Eight bathrooms serve the six bedrooms across the house, so guests and residents have their own facilities without sharing even when the villa is full. A buyer viewing the property will want to experience how acoustics and heating behave in a nine-metre room, as volume on this scale changes how a main living area feels in winter as much as in summer.

How the bedrooms are divided between the two levels

The layout separates the sleeping quarters across the two floors. The upper level holds the main bedroom alongside two guest bedrooms, and each of these three rooms faces out towards the golf course and the sea. The remaining three bedrooms sit on the lower level, which also contains the kitchen and the main living area. Having half the bedrooms downstairs means older relatives, staff, or visiting friends can stay on the garden level without using the stairs, while the upper floor stays quieter. Every room on the ground floor opens directly out to the grounds, allowing people to walk straight from the kitchen or living room onto the terrace and lawn.

The 2,520 square metre plot and private garden

For a 6 bedroom detached villa in Casares, a plot of 2,520 square metres gives substantial separation from neighbouring homes and plenty of flat ground around the building. Beyond the 239 square metres of terrace, the private garden is planted with tall palm trees, flower beds, and trimmed hedging that frame the views of the Mediterranean coastline and the golf course in front. The private swimming pool is finished in dark azure tiles, which absorbs more warmth from the sun than pale tiling and gives the water a deeper colour. Beside the water sits an integrated poolside gazebo, providing permanent shade for sitting outdoors during the middle of the day without relying on movable parasols.
