Villa in Benahavis, Fuente del Espanto

Property description

Step through a grand wooden door and be welcomed into the sanctuary that is Villa TrueLove, flanked by hand-carved volcanic rock "Fu Dogs" statues. From the very first step, the villa envelopes you in an atmosphere of tranquility and luxury that beckons you to stay.

The first of two master bedrooms is accessed through an ornate wooden door, blending the warmth of wood with the natural beauty of stone. The open bathroom features a cozy glass-enclosed shower and a beautifully detailed sink, with the bedroom leading out onto a private terrace that opens to the lush garden. A side door leads to an elegant walk-in closet, illuminated with glass doors and bespoke cabinetry.

The villa’s spa zone offers a unique rejuvenation experience. Indulge in a massage, relax in the eight-person sauna, or immerse yourself in a 1,500-year-old carved granite bathtub, situated under a skylight that highlights this ancient masterpiece.

The open-plan living area and kitchen provide seamless access to the gardens and the spectacular infinity pool. The living room floor is a sublime fusion of parquet wood and a frosted glass section, creating the sensation of walking on water. A bioethanol fireplace subtly divides the spaces. The kitchen is a modern masterpiece with natural wood and stainless steel accents, featuring a bespoke island that invites culinary creativity.

The second master bedroom, just off the living area, exudes a youthful vibe with high ceilings, soft LED lighting, and a mid-century design that feels warm and inviting. An open bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower and a gold-finished sink completes this luxurious space.

Upstairs, you’ll find a fully equipped gym with breathtaking views of the mountains and gardens. The lower level holds even more surprises, including a spacious laundry room, two more bedrooms, each beautifully lit with hidden LED lights and finished with natural concrete and wood touches, and plush furnishings that invite relaxation. A private cinema room, complete with a bar and restroom, offers an immersive entertainment experience, acoustically designed for perfect sound.

Hidden behind a wooden wall is a fully equipped panic room, large enough to house 12 people, with its own kitchen, dining area, and bathroom. This fortified refuge is connected to the security system, ensuring peace of mind even in the event of a power outage.

Outside, Villa TrueLove reveals its true essence through its gardens, meticulously designed to stimulate the senses. A hybrid lawn, requiring minimal maintenance, caresses your feet, while a Japanese stone garden conveys strength and stability. An aviary of olive trees adds a sense of freedom, and the fruit garden provides fresh tomatoes, bananas, avocados, and pomegranates. At the heart of the garden sits an ancient Balinese temple surrounded by a fish pond, connected by a wooden bridge, offering respite from the heat of the day.

The infinity pool extends seamlessly, with submerged sun loungers at one end and a serene Buddha statue at the other, watching over the tranquil waters. Adjacent to the pool is a fully equipped guest house, complete with a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and chill-out area.

On the other side of the property lies a symbol of rebirth and life that flows through the villa: a 1,000-year-old carob tree, affectionately known as "the grandfather." Its branches renew every 80 years, a living testament to time and growth.

Villa TrueLove is adorned with emblems of love throughout the home, offering top-of-the-line amenities including water tanks, 42 solar panels, military-grade security systems, aerothermal heating, and a water purification system. This property is more than a luxurious home—it’s a sanctuary that quietly purifies the mind and restores inner peace.

In short, Villa TrueLove is a place you may enter and never want to leave, for it inevitably becomes a part of your soul.
