Originally built in 2009 and now undergoing a complete, high-specification reform, Villa Bellavista will be one of the most advanced homes in La Zagaleta. Set in grounds of 4,422m² with over 1,200m² of built area across three floors, it combines contemporary luxury with genuine self-sufficiency.

Solar power for both electricity and water, a heat pump, a battery backup system and a gas backup keep the villa running independently of the grid, while a solar-heated pool with its own cover makes the most of the Andalusian sun.

A state-of-the-art KNX and Home Assistant automation system ties the whole house together and can be customised to suit its owners. Fully integrated TV and audio, with ceiling and wall speakers throughout, and motion- and presence-activated lighting make this a truly modern and aware smart home.

The designer open-plan kitchen and dining area with Miele appliances flows into a lounge with cinema screen and projector, and out to a large terrace with barbecue, sofa area and pool table, all enjoying views over the forest and out to the Mediterranean. Four large bedrooms, each with a private en-suite, sit on the ground floor, while the basement is a world of its own for entertaining and wellbeing.
