Villa in Casares

Stunning fully modernised country house with sea views for sale in Casares, Málaga, Andalusia, just 20 minutes from Estepona. This exceptional finca blends the charm of a traditional Andalusian home with the comfort and efficiency of a Northern European villa. Bright open spaces, colourful bougainvillea and sweeping views of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and even Africa create a truly magical setting, while high-quality insulation, double glazing, photovoltaic panels and premium appliances ensure modern comfort and sustainability.

With a total built area of 445 m² (300 m² main living space), the property enjoys an elevated position in the mountains of Casares with almost 360º panoramic views. From here you overlook Sierra Crestellina, Sierra Bermeja, the edge of the white village of Casares, Estepona’s coastline and, on clear days, the African continent. The home is surrounded by lush, mature nature and a beautiful oak forest with century-old trees, offering privacy and tranquillity. Access is easy via a well-maintained, mostly concreted road, just 7 minutes from the main road, leading to a private gate, garage and ample parking.

The main entrance opens into a welcoming hall that flows into spacious open-plan living areas designed to maximise light and views. The layout is subtly divided into a cosy lounge with terrace access, a TV or music corner, a reading/library space and a generous dining area framed by floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors. These open onto the terrace and garden, allowing indoor-outdoor living throughout the year. The half-open kitchen connects seamlessly with the living space and features top-quality appliances, a cooking island with breakfast bar and direct access to a breakfast terrace. A split-level design enhances the warm and inviting atmosphere without sacrificing openness. This floor also includes a guest bedroom (currently used as an office), a bathroom and a guest toilet.

Upstairs, a spacious mezzanine overlooks the lounge and can serve as a workspace, yoga or meditation area, or additional guest accommodation. There is a second guest bedroom with private terrace and a fully fitted bathroom, plus a comfortable master suite with en-suite bathroom and private balcony overlooking the cork oak forest and distant sea. The main house offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in total.

The property is designed for year-round eco-friendly living. An efficient heat pump provides both heating and cooling, supported by a ventilation system for summer comfort. The 10 kW photovoltaic solar panel system significantly reduces electricity costs, complemented by thermal solar panels for hot water. Underfloor heating in the kitchen, wood burners, filtered mains water, water softener, new cabling throughout and smart app-controlled climate and LED lighting all contribute to its A energy rating.

From the ground floor, exterior stairs lead to landscaped gardens, expansive terraces and a beautifully retiled swimming pool with cover. Sunbathing terraces, a covered lounge area and outdoor shower complete the pool zone. The garden features a fruit orchard with fig, lemon, orange and níspero trees, as well as a vegetable patch for home-grown produce. Private trails cross the land, inviting exploration of your own hillside.

The semi-basement adds a further 150 m² of built space, with approximately 50 m² suitable as additional living area. Currently arranged as a large studio with sauna, shower room and toilet, it could easily become a guest suite, gym, entertainment area or art studio. This level also houses the technical room, laundry and generous storage. The fully fenced plot is connected to mains electricity and filtered water.

Location is ideal: just 10 minutes from the picturesque village of Casares and 20 minutes from the vibrant town of Estepona, where you will find supermarkets, hospitals, international restaurants and all services. Málaga city and its international airport are approximately one hour away. The coast and several renowned golf courses, including Finca Cortesin and Real Club Valderrama, are within 15 minutes.

An exceptional eco-luxury country retreat in a privileged natural setting with breathtaking views and excellent access to amenities.
