House in Vinuela

Some houses have a view. This one has a lake at its feet, a mountain range as its frame, and the kind of silence that changes how you breathe.

An Andalucian-style villa with a modern soul, elevated above the shores of Embalse de la Viñuela — Málaga's largest reservoir — with uninterrupted water and mountain views in every direction. 400 m² of interior space. A fenced 4,230 m² plot. Six bedrooms, five bathrooms, multiple terraces, a pool, a large garage, and a fully independent guest apartment. The proportions are generous. The setting is quietly extraordinary.

The top floor belongs entirely to the principal suite — less a bedroom, more a private world. Large en-suite with shower and jacuzzi. A substantial terrace looking straight out over the pool, the gardens, the lake, and La Maroma beyond. Nothing to interrupt it. Nothing ever will.

The main floor is where daily life happens effortlessly. An open living, dining and kitchen space wraps around a fireplace and opens directly onto the front terrace — that seamless flow between inside and out that makes a house genuinely liveable. A side entrance into the kitchen keeps the rhythm easy. Three further bedrooms in the left wing: one en-suite with walk-through wardrobes and those same lake views, direct terrace and pool access; the other two sharing a generous family bathroom, both with fitted storage. A guest WC completes the level.

Below, the house reveals its practicality without losing its character. Laundry room, playroom or storage, a double garage with space for motorcycles and more. And to one side, a fully self-contained apartment — two bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, living room, large terrace doors to the pool, its own separate entrance. For family. For guests. For whoever needs their own space within yours.

Throughout: sand-coloured marble floors and bathrooms, electric shutters on every window, centralised ducted heating and cooling.

The seller has left the kitchens, solar panels, home automation and garden for the buyer to complete. Not because the house is unfinished — but because the best owners rarely want to inherit someone else's taste.

The real luxury, though, is none of that.

It is the light on the water in the morning. The mountains at dusk. The terrace lunches that run too long. Children growing up with space and air and freedom. A life with a more beautiful rhythm — and still thirty-five minutes from Málaga, twenty from the coast, forty from the airport.

This is a family home for people who chose well.
