Sold
The Retreat is a distinctive six-bedroom villa located in the serene hills just above Estepona’s historic town center. This exceptional residence delivers a rare blend of privacy, panoramic sea views, and breathtaking mountain scenery, with the Sierra Bermeja range creating a dramatic backdrop to daily life. Positioned on a spacious 3,058 square meter plot facing southeast, the home offers seclusion in a natural setting while remaining only two kilometers from Estepona’s bustling promenade and charming urban amenities. The beach, local shops, and dining options are just minutes away, making the location as convenient as it is peaceful.
Completed in November 2023, this property has been carefully crafted to provide a refined living experience. The architecture is contemporary with clean lines, open spaces, and an emphasis on light and flow. Every detail reflects quality, from the high-end branded appliances in the kitchens to the option of a curated furniture package from Zoco Home, allowing new owners to step into a fully furnished and tastefully styled space from day one.
The villa is thoughtfully laid out to cater to a variety of lifestyles, whether as a full-time residence, a high-end holiday rental, or even a wellness retreat. The main house features four en-suite bedrooms, each designed for comfort and privacy. Mezzanines and custom-built elements such as a walk-in wardrobe add a layer of functionality and elegance to the interior spaces. Large windows and sliding doors create seamless transitions between indoor living areas and the expansive terrace that frames the stunning sea views.
A separate guesthouse provides two additional bedrooms and ensures privacy for visiting friends or family, or can serve as an independent rental unit. The inclusion of two enclosed kitchens along with an outdoor cooking area adds flexibility for entertaining or hosting larger groups. The infinity-edge pool, sauna, and various recreational areas like the petanque court and lounge zones contribute to the resort-style atmosphere of the property.
Energy efficiency and sustainability are central to the design, with solar energy systems and aerothermal heating integrated throughout the property. These features not only reduce environmental impact but also ensure a cost-effective, year-round comfortable living environment.
The immediate surroundings of The Retreat offer a peaceful contrast to the lively heart of Estepona, where one finds boutique hotels like the Silken El Pilar, fine dining spots such as La Rada and Taberna Miguel, and cultural attractions like the Orchid House and the open-air murals scattered throughout the old town. Public transport options and well-maintained road links offer easy access to nearby towns, golf courses, and international schools, enhancing the home’s appeal for families and global travelers alike.
The neighborhood behind Estepona’s center is known for its mix of traditional Andalusian homes and modern villas, often surrounded by natural landscapes and quiet trails. The architectural language in this area typically blends rustic materials with contemporary lines, and The Retreat embodies this style with clarity and distinction. Residents enjoy the dual advantage of natural beauty and close proximity to the town’s evolving luxury scene.
This property stands out not only for its panoramic vistas and versatile layout but also for the lifestyle it offers—one rooted in wellness, comfort, and understated luxury. Whether envisioned as a private residence, a destination for guests, or a space for creative ventures, The Retreat delivers a unique opportunity to invest in one of the most desirable corners of southern Spain.
