Double-height living room and open sea views

A double-height vaulted ceiling in the living room sets this home apart from the standard low-ceilinged layouts often found in hillside developments. This 3 bedroom townhouse in Monte Mayor, Benahavís sits within the village of La Heredia and has a 193 m² built area. Large windows in the main room face outward to frame panoramic sea and mountain views, bringing light into the centre of the house.

Bedrooms, bathrooms and storage

The layout provides three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom is arranged as a suite with its own en-suite bathroom, leaving the second bathroom to serve the remaining two bedrooms and any visiting guests. Buyers with larger families or regular visitors should note that two bathrooms for three bedrooms means the secondary bathroom also acts as the guest cloakroom. All three bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, which keeps the floor space clear of freestanding cupboards and simplifies furnishing.

Plot size, garden and the 73 m² of terraces

Outdoor space is split between the 73 m² of terraces and an 83 m² plot that includes a garden. The terrace area is large enough to hold both a full dining table and separate seating without crowding the doors or blocking the sightlines toward the coast and mountains. Because the plot itself measures 83 m², the garden portion is compact, meaning a resident gets private outdoor space without taking on the weekly upkeep of a large hillside plot. When viewing, it is worth checking how the terrace space is divided and which parts take the afternoon sun.

Garage, parking and community security

Unlike many village-style townhouses where residents must hunt for kerbside spaces on narrow streets, this property includes both a private garage and an additional parking space. Having two dedicated places to park is a practical advantage in a hillside location where every trip to the shops requires a car. The house also has access to a pool and sits inside a gated community with 24-hour security, allowing owners who do not live in Spain full-time to lock up and leave the house for months at a stretch.

Monte Mayor location and daily errands

Monte Mayor is a quiet, natural hillside area in Benahavís, which means daily errands are done by car rather than on foot. From this 3 bedroom townhouse in Monte Mayor, Benahavís, the nearest shops, restaurants and everyday amenities in Cancelada are an 8-minute drive down the hill. Golf courses are also in the surrounding area, making the location workable for permanent residents who want peace and security without being cut off from the coast.
