A 2024 renovation with sea views to Gibraltar in East Estepona

A Swedish-designed kitchen sits at the centre of the house, with large windows connecting the main rooms directly to the terraces and garden outside. This 4 bedroom detached villa with private pool in Selwo was fully renovated in 2024 and spans 293 m² of built area. For a buyer, a completed renovation of this scale removes the uncertainty of local building quotes, planning delays, and living through months of dust.

Inside the house: bedrooms, bathrooms and systems

Four bedrooms share the layout with three bathrooms and an additional guest toilet. Having a separate guest toilet keeps daytime visitors out of the private bathrooms, a practical detail when people are using the pool and garden. All three bathrooms have underfloor heating, taking the chill off the tiles during the cooler winter mornings between November and March. Throughout the house, a Plejd smart lighting system controls the illumination, allowing the lighting levels in different rooms to be adjusted or scheduled without rewiring or adding dimmer switches.

The 504 m² plot, terraces and outdoor layout

The house stands on a 504 m² plot wrapped in a Mediterranean garden. Because the built area is 293 m² and there is 40 m² of terrace space divided across two terraces, the outdoor ground is arranged into distinct functional zones rather than a wide lawn that needs heavy watering. Those two terraces look out to the sea, with views reaching as far as Gibraltar and facing the evening sunset. Down in the garden, the private pool is accompanied by a barbecue area and separate lounge spaces. A plot of this size gives enough room to swim, dine outside, and separate quiet seating from the pool area without spending the weekend maintaining a large estate.

Parking, licensing and the Selwo neighbourhood

Cars are kept in a private garage, and there is additional street parking outside for visiting friends or second vehicles. The property also holds an active tourist rental licence. In Andalusia, where holiday letting rules have tightened and communities can vote to restrict short-term stays, having the paperwork already in place saves significant administrative effort if the house is to be let out for part of the year. This 4 bedroom detached villa with private pool in Selwo is in a quiet residential part of East Estepona, close to schools, paddle courts, restaurants, and daily shops. The local neighbourhood has plans to install gating in the near future; a buyer viewing the house should ask to see the minutes from the local association to verify the exact timeline and details of that project.
