Project analysis
VILLA 40 MONTE MAYOR is a new-construction project in Benahavís designed as a single five-bedroom, three-bathroom home. The project is south and west oriented, and the source description confirms sea views from every floor.
The layout places the home’s leisure spaces in the semi-basement, which has windows and includes a lift, staircase, bathroom, cinema room, gymnasium and a large games room. This gives the house a clear separation between its entertaining facilities and the principal living floors, while retaining direct vertical access by lift.
On the ground floor, the proposed plan brings together the kitchen, separate pantry, living area and dining area, alongside the principal bedroom with en-suite bathroom and dressing area.
The overall plan is particularly relevant for buyers wanting a large villa with distinct spaces for family life, guests and indoor recreation.
The project also includes practical and technical elements such as fitted wardrobes, storage and utility rooms, double glazing, home automation, fibre optic connectivity, electric blinds, an alarm system, 24-hour security and an EV charge point. In the combination of a large private plot, all-floor sea views and a recreation-focused lower level makes this a particularly specialised proposition rather than a conventional turnkey villa.
A home arranged for privacy, gathering and downtime
The planned arrangement supports a daily rhythm centred on the main living floor: cooking, dining and relaxing are grouped together, with terraces and the heated pool immediately outside. South and west orientation can be especially appealing to buyers who value sunlight across the day and later-afternoon light around the outdoor areas.
Bedrooms are distributed across the main floors rather than concentrated in one wing. The principal suite is planned on the ground floor, while four further bedrooms sit on the first floor, creating a practical degree of separation for family members or visiting guests.
The semi-basement is more than ancillary space. With a cinema room, gymnasium and large games room, it is designed to make staying at home feel purposeful as well as comfortable. The trade-off is that this is a large, multi-level house: buyers who prefer a compact, low-maintenance single-level layout should compare alternatives.
The private garden is specified as easy maintenance, while covered terraces, a solarium, barbecue and bar provide several settings for outdoor use. The views include sea, mountain, country, panoramic, garden, pool and urban outlooks, giving the project a broad visual relationship with its hillside setting.
Space across three levels
Inside, the proposed programme includes a kitchen with separate pantry, living and dining areas, fitted wardrobes, en-suite bathrooms, a utility room and storage room. A lift links the semi-basement, ground floor and first floor, while access for people with reduced mobility is also listed among the project features.
The leisure provision is unusually comprehensive for a single villa: a gymnasium, cinema room, large games room, Jacuzzi and bar are all included in the available project information. Parking is planned in a two-car garage, with additional covered, private and more-than-one-car parking provision, plus an EV charge point.
