Description
This frontline villa in the Los Monteros area is focused on the Mediterranean outdoor lifestyle: a huge covered veranda seamlessly extends into the living room, and the rooftop has a viewing platform with 360° panoramic views. Inside, there are bright social spaces and a well-equipped kitchen, along with a large master suite with sea views. Some secondary rooms are simpler in design and don’t match the contemporary façade and exteriors in style. The price carries a significant premium over the area average.

Objective Summary

Advantages

• Rare, unobstructed sea views from the first level; 360° panoramic views from the rooftop.
• Strong exterior: high covered veranda, large private pool, mature garden; ideal indoor/outdoor flow.
• Premium Los Monteros location and high level of 24/7 security.
• Substantial scale of the house (589 m²) with thoughtful south-facing orientation and abundant natural light.
• Well-appointed main areas: spacious living room, kitchen with island and premium appliances, high-quality master suite.

Disadvantages

• Premium above the area average: +1,101 €/m² — according to the “pricing efficiency” metric, this pulls the rating down.
• Stylistic inconsistency: secondary bedrooms/bathrooms require updating to match the façade architecture and exterior.
• Kitchen with standard window format — less wow factor and views than the living room.
• Only 4 bedrooms for this size — not the maximum capacity at this price.

Verdict
This property is for a buyer who prioritizes the Los Monteros location, rare direct sea views, and strong outdoor spaces. Given the price premium, this is not a bargain, but a smart update to the secondary rooms and a cosmetic upgrade to the kitchen could raise the subjective score and value. Overall rating: 6.5/10.
