A 1990s family house between San Pedro and Guadalmina

Three hundred and twelve square metres of built area sit on a 545 m² plot with 40 m² of terrace. This 5 bedroom detached villa with garden in San Pedro de Alcántara dates from the 1990s and stands between the town and Guadalmina, within walking distance of shops. Unlike open-plan contemporary builds, a house from this decade separates its living areas into distinct rooms and puts a full utilities and parking level underneath.

Ground floor with separate dining and study

The entrance level keeps daily functions apart. The main living room opens onto a terrace, while a separate dining room sits alongside rather than sharing the same floor plate. The kitchen leads directly out to an exterior patio, which makes bringing in groceries or setting up an outdoor table straightforward. This floor also holds a dedicated office and a shower room, so someone working from home does not have to use the upstairs bedrooms, and daytime guests have their own washroom.

Four bedrooms and an attic room upstairs

All four principal bedrooms are on the first floor, served by a large terrace with open views. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, and a third bathroom serves the remaining rooms. Also on this level is a spacious attic room that acts as the fifth bedroom, though its layout allows it to function equally well as a playroom or a second study depending on how many sleeping quarters a household requires.

The 545 m² plot and outdoor spaces

Outside, the grounds divide into garden, terraces, the kitchen patio and a private swimming pool with a gymnasium area. A 545 m² plot around a house of this footprint leaves room to swim, exercise and sit out without leaving a large expanse of lawn that takes hours to maintain each week. When viewing this 5 bedroom detached villa with garden in San Pedro de Alcántara, it is worth checking how the gymnasium area is set up alongside the pool and how the sun moves across the main terrace and patio through the afternoon.

Three-car basement and walking access to shops

Below the living levels, a large basement provides indoor parking for three cars alongside a storage room, a machine room and a water cistern. Having a cistern and a dedicated plant room on site is a practical advantage of 1990s construction, giving easy access to plumbing and a reserve water supply. Outside the gates, the position between San Pedro de Alcántara and Guadalmina means daily errands and shops can be reached on foot, reducing reliance on the car despite the generous garage space.
