Detached Villa for sale in La Herradura

In the beautiful bay of La Herradura, in the area known as Peña Parda, less than a 10-minute walk from the beach (shortened by crossing a nearby property) or a pleasant 20-minute stroll, with incredible views of the beach and the sea, and just minutes from the protected natural site of Cerro Gordo—home to one of the most spectacular sunsets on the entire Andalusian coast, seen from the well-known Cerro Gordo viewpoint.

Only five minutes by car from the motorway link that takes you to Granada—an iconic historic city, a must-visit, less than 45 minutes away—Málaga, the capital of the Costa del Sol, famous for tourism, golf, leisure, and shopping, 55 minutes away, and the breathtaking natural landscapes of the Alpujarras and Sierra Nevada reachable in 90 minutes.

In an exceptional location, this house was one of the first to be built in the area, and its original owner chose a 940 m² plot that dominates the surroundings, offering spectacular views of the bay, the beach, the sea, the village, and the mountains. Here he built this property of more than 300 m², with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 1 guest toilet, and a very large living room with fireplace and impressive views over more than 200 m² of terraces and solarium spaces with different ambiences, culminating in a stunning heated infinity pool with a 40.25 m² sheet of water.

Entering the property from the beach or from the main road (it has several access points), you arrive at the spacious enclosed garage of over 40 m², with room for two cars plus additional parking at the entrance.

A short flight of stairs takes you to the main floor of the house, 165 m². A small entrance hall leads to the large main living room with fireplace and access to the terrace. There is also a second living room with side access to the pool area and the barbecue/bar area, which includes a small outdoor kitchen and enjoys sun all day long.

This floor also includes a guest toilet, the kitchen, and two bedrooms—the master bedroom with its own terrace and large en-suite bathroom.

We then reach the home's standout feature: nearly 200 m² of terraces and solarium space, with the heated pool as the centerpiece. From here, whether day or night, you can enjoy privileged, completely unobstructed views while relaxing in the water with a drink in hand, taking full advantage of the exceptional microclimate of the Tropical Coast—year-round temperatures between 18ºC and 25ºC and more than 330 days of sunshine per year.

From this area, you can descend to the guest level, 118 m², which includes a pleasant shared space with a large table and two fully independent en-suite bedrooms. This level also has direct street access via a side staircase, leading through a neighboring property to the path that brings you down to the beach in just a few minutes. Here you will also find the old wine cellar and billiard area, which could be converted into an additional bedroom if needed.

The property also features a spacious garage for two cars at the main entrance.

As this is an older house, updating the bathrooms, kitchen, and certain features is advisable, but without a doubt, this is secondary. What truly defines this property is its exceptional location, its easy access, and above all, its privileged and breathtaking views. With a southwest orientation and its elevated position on the ridge, it enjoys sun all day long.

And we must highlight its beautiful, magical, and exceptional sunrises.

A property with an extraordinary energy and presence that impresses every visitor—and we invite you to come see it. Just call us, schedule a visit, and discover it for yourself.
