Built to be lived in
Nestled in the hills of La Zagaleta, one of Europe's most exclusive residential areas, Casa Valentino is a residence designed for those who understand that true luxury lies not in excess, but in the perfect harmony of scale, light, and craftsmanship. Designed by the acclaimed Tobal Architects and furnished entirely by Taylor Interiors, the villa blends the timeless character of traditional Andalusian architecture with a sophisticated, contemporary design.
Set on a spacious 4,651 m² plot with 1,700 m² of living space and 400 m² of terraces, the villa is distributed over three levels connected by an elevator. It offers seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and two guest toilets, as well as private parking for six cars. Facing south/east, it enjoys sea and mountain views throughout the day, complemented by a private garden, private swimming pool, and underfloor heating throughout the property. All of this is within a gated community with 24-hour security and access to the private golf courses of La Zagaleta, the equestrian center, and the social clubs.
From the outside, it stands out for its elegance and strong architectural presence. Its clean, white volumes, traditional terracotta tile roofs, and covered terraces reflect the essence of Andalusian style, while the contemporary design keeps the whole feeling fresh, elegant, and distinctive. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, opening the main living area directly onto the gardens, a spectacular infinity pool, and uninterrupted views that stretch from the Mediterranean coast to the surrounding mountains.
Inside, the design language leans towards a softer, more avant-garde aesthetic. The spaces combine a palette of ivory, taupe, and warm bronze, enriched with soft velvets, sculptural crystal lamps, and richly textured rugs that bring balance to the double-height living areas. A striking spiral crystal chandelier descends from the black coffered ceiling and becomes the focal point of the main living room, creating a striking contrast between the dramatic character and the sense of comfort that defines the villa. Deep sofas, soft cushions in neutral tones, and natural stone floors balance the grandeur of the spaces with a welcoming atmosphere.
Beyond its spacious living areas, the villa boasts a full-service spa, including a heated indoor pool, sauna, and Turkish bath, as well as a fully equipped gym. For leisure and entertainment, the property offers a cinema room, a games room, and a custom wine cellar, while a separate guest or staff apartment adds even more flexibility for extended family or live-in employees.
