villa in El Herrojo
Hillside Andalusian villa in El Herrojo, awaiting considered reinvention
01 / 12Six frames.
A long, low line of glass.
Set within the gated quiet of El Herrojo, this 627 m² villa occupies a 1,358 m² plot on elevated ground above Benahavís. Built in 2004, the house retains its columned façade, wrought-iron balconies, and tiled roofing—elements that speak to a particular moment in Costa del Sol architecture. Eight bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and a layout that opens onto south-facing terraces and a private pool. The garden is mature; the views take in both sea and sierra. Interiors are generous in ceiling height and light, though the décor invites updating. Auxiliary spaces include a gym, storage, and covered parking for two vehicles. El Herrojo itself is known for 24-hour security, large plots, and proximity to La Quinta Golf and the international-school corridor. The villa suits either occupation as is or a more ambitious programme of renovation. Enquiries are accepted by introduction.
