CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE POISED WITHIN THE HILLSIDE OF LA QUINTA
Residing within an exquisite gated community, against the hillside and surrounded by a protected area, lies Villa Lupi. A brand new and contemporary styled home with a beautiful mix of modern architecture combined with organic materials. From an elevated and south facing position, Villa Lupi has views across the green scape and out to the Mediterranean Sea.
As you enter the 24hour secure, gated community, you have the rolling greens of La Quinta golf course on the left and the peaceful forest setting.
This exclusive area has a sense of calm and stillness; surrounded by the stills of mature pine trees.
Weaving around the select group of properties are forest routes, to walk and enjoy the peacefulness of the community. Villa Lupi benefits from being surrounded by a protected area, ensuring that the natural landscape remains intact and building is carefully controlled.
ORGANIC MATERIALS TO SOFTEN AND ADD TEXTURE
Villa Lupi has an interior build size of 624m2, set on an ample plot of 1.200m2. On entering the gated driveway, there is a garage with space for two vehicles.
Villa Lupi offers a showstopping entrance; a grand double height Iroko wood door, complementing the exterior stone walls. Take the steps to the entrance and this beautiful mix of organic materials continues, adding personality and comfort. There are accents of wood used throughout to soften the masculine architecture and add warmth where necessary.
A vast stone wall resides on the left, with a floating wooden staircase to the first-floor terrace and master suite. To the right, ample floor to ceiling glass sliding doors open to a covered area, with extra seating within the Andalusian climate.
The property has a heated, salt water swimming pool and the garden carefully curves around the build, maximising the view out to the golf greens, natural landscape and to the Sea. The garden is delicately lit and has an installed irrigation system. The generous terrace areas have flooring of large cut porcelain, continued in the main living area.
Moving into the main living area, the kitchen has every detail considered to be both aesthetically beautiful and completely functional. A modern and designer kitchen, with neolith countertops and a central island with integrated champagne bucket. Fitted by leading local kitchen provider Danespan,
there are high quality appliances from Gaggenau. A wine fridge, two dishwashers and ample storage space are a nod to the understanding of modern life.
Moving to the other side of the ground floor, a guest bathroom and the main seating area. It is a well-appointed space, furnished with a mix of unique items from Scandinavia and Italy.
Relax and recline with the views to the forest area to the east and to the south, across the treetops, residential areas and down towards the Sea.
MODERN MASTERPIECE WITH EQUAL ATTENTION TO BEAUTY AND FUNCTIONALITY
Villa Lupi delivers striking contemporary architecture, perfectly blended with organic materials to soften. Vast walls of stone wrap the property and to the south-side, large, abundant windows flood the rooms with light and expand the eye to the surrounding natural landscape.
Throughout the property there is the careful use of space and the light; every room has its own view or access to garden areas, so that you can immerse yourself in the landscape, or equally retreat into the luxury this home offers.
The property is a complete smart home, with a Lutron domotics system and practical solutions at every turn.
FLOAT ABOVE THE TREE TOPS IN THE MASTER SUITE
Villa Lupi has a total of 5 bedrooms, including a spectacular master suite on the first floor.
Take a seat on the private terrace and feel as though you are floating above the natural landscape.
GENEROUS BASEMENT
Villa Lupi has a generous basement, delivering a number of facilities, including a large gym area equipped with ample space for a range of exercise equipment.
A climate-controlled bodega with wooden shelving is a nod to opulence.
There are three bedrooms in the basement, with an additional fourth bedroom perfect for staff or guest lodgings. This bedroom has private access from the driveway, allowing maximum comfort to the users and has its own en suite bathroom.
Each of the bedrooms benefit from natural light and have individual access to a calm, zen-like garden area with manicured Japanese style plants and vegetation and landscaped lawn.
All of these rooms have en suite bathrooms, with walk in rain showers.
There is a large laundry room, with Miele appliances and spa-like qualities to heighten the feeling of luxury.
A LOW-DENSITY LIFESTYLE, MINUTES FROM THE COAST
La Quinta is a mature urbanisation, comprising of several select and gated communities. A peaceful and affluent area, neighbouring the private communities of El Madroñal and La Zagaleta, it is populated with pine trees across the rolling mountain scape. A privileged position, where the views are sought after as they deliver a mix of golf greens, the Andalusian landscape and down to the Sea.
La Quinta is to the north of Marbella’s famous Golf Valley, overseeing several of the coast’s most prized courses.
The area is a mere 10-minutes’ drive from the coast and is located just north of Nueva Andalucia where there are a wealth of amenities. Everything from international schools, to health and wellness facilities and quality restaurants.
