Positioned on a private west-facing corner plot, the property enjoys panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, La Concepción Reservoir and the surrounding mountains. Its established garden features a private swimming pool, mature olive and palm trees, and spacious terraces, while a double garage and additional outdoor parking provide practical convenience. Located within a gated residential community approximately 10 to 15 minutes by car from Puerto Banús, the villa combines privacy, natural surroundings and considerable potential for modernisation. The architecture blends traditional Mediterranean elements with a modern rustic character, creating a home defined by generous proportions and natural light. The main living room features impressive double-height ceilings, enhancing the sense of space and allowing the surrounding landscape to become an important part of the interior. A fireplace provides a central feature, while large windows frame views across the garden towards the mountains and coastline. The entrance level accommodates an open-plan kitchen and dining area, creating a practical setting for everyday family life and entertaining. The layout connects naturally with the principal living spaces, allowing the different areas to function together while maintaining their individual character. Overlooking the lounge, a mezzanine level offers additional flexibility. Currently suitable for use as a home office or reading area, this space could potentially be adapted into a fourth bedroom. A nearby shower room adds convenience, although any conversion would need to be assessed according to the property's layout and applicable requirements. A few steps above the entrance, the principal bedroom enjoys open views of the surrounding landscape. This level also accommodates a guest bedroom and bathroom, providing comfortable accommodation away from the main living areas. On the lower level, adjacent to the lounge, a spacious bedroom suite offers additional privacy, making it particularly suitable for visiting family members or guests. The villa includes underfloor heating in the kitchen and principal bedroom suite, while the living room fireplace provides additional comfort during the cooler months. Its existing distribution offers considerable flexibility for buyers who wish to retain the property's traditional character while introducing more contemporary finishes. Outdoor living is one of the property's strongest attractions. The private corner plot provides a sense of openness, with uninterrupted views across La Concepción Reservoir, the surrounding mountains and the Mediterranean coastline. Its west-facing orientation is particularly appealing for enjoying afternoon sunlight and sunsets from the terraces. The mature Mediterranean garden incorporates established palm and olive trees, creating a natural setting around the generous swimming pool. Several terraces provide separate areas for outdoor dining, relaxation and entertaining, allowing residents to enjoy different parts of the garden throughout the day. A double enclosed garage offers secure parking, complemented by additional outdoor parking space for visitors. The combination of a corner position, established landscaping and multiple outdoor areas contributes to the property's privacy. Although the villa has been unoccupied for some time, its existing architecture and layout provide an attractive starting point for a renovation or cosmetic refurbishment. Updating selected interior finishes and refreshing the landscaping could enhance the property's presentation while preserving its Mediterranean character. The established garden, elevated views and spacious living areas are particularly valuable features that would be difficult to reproduce in a more densely developed residential setting. Sierra Blanca Country Club is a gated residential community situated in the hills of Istán, along the road connecting Nueva Andalucía with the village of Istán. The development is characterised by detached villas on private plots, with architecture ranging from traditional Andalusian and Mediterranean designs to more contemporary residences. Its elevated setting provides extensive views across the surrounding countryside, La Concepción Reservoir and the Mediterranean Sea. The neighbourhood is particularly attractive to buyers seeking a quieter residential environment without being isolated from the coast. Unlike more densely populated urbanisations, Sierra Blanca Country Club offers a strong connection with nature, with mountain landscapes and established vegetation forming part of its everyday surroundings. Outdoor activities are a significant attraction. The nearby Sierra de las Nieves landscape provides opportunities for hiking, mountain biking and exploring the countryside. La Concepción Reservoir is an important geographical feature of the area, while the village of Istán offers traditional Andalusian architecture, local restaurants and access to walking routes through the surrounding mountains. For golf enthusiasts, Aloha Golf Club, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and Los Naranjos Golf Club are accessible by car in Nueva Andalucía. The same area provides tennis and padel facilities, together with supermarkets, cafés and restaurants. Puerto Banús is approximately 10 to 15 minutes away by car, depending on traffic, offering marina facilities, international shopping and waterfront dining. The beaches of Puerto Banús and Nueva Andalucía are also within convenient driving distance, with established beachfront restaurants and leisure facilities. Families have access to international educational options such as Aloha College and Laude San Pedro International College, although daily school journeys require a private vehicle. Shopping facilities at Centro Plaza and El Corte Inglés in Puerto Banús provide further convenience. Road access is via the Istán road, which connects the community with Nueva Andalucía and the coastal road network. The A-7 and AP-7 provide onward connections towards Estepona and Málaga Airport. Public transport within Sierra Blanca Country Club is limited, making private transport the most practical choice for everyday activities. This villa for sale in Sierra Blanca Country Club offers an appealing combination of privacy, established Mediterranean architecture and panoramic sea, lake and mountain views. Its three-bedroom layout, adaptable mezzanine, double-height living room and generous outdoor spaces provide a strong foundation for a comfortable family residence. With thoughtful interior updates and refreshed landscaping, the property offers the opportunity to create a personalised home in one of Istán's most scenic gated residential communities. # Facts - Price: 1595000 EUR - Location: Sierra Blanca Country Club, Istan - GPS coordinates: [36.5714038,-4.9558696] - Property Type: Villa - Reference: HRB-01821P - Bedrooms: 3 - Bathrooms: 4 - Sizes in m2: [built: 297, plot: 1093, terrace: 40, interior: 257] - Construction Year: 2003 - Orientation: O - Features: [Mountainside, Air conditioning, Underfloor heating (partial), Sea view, Fully fitted kitchen, Country view, Mountain view, Fireplace, Office room, Covered terrace, Optional furniture, Fitted wardrobes, Gated community, Good condition, Security service 24h, Lake view, Panoramic view] # Discovery - [Properties in Sierra Blanca Country Club](https://www.homerunmarbella.com/properties/sierra-blanca-country-club.md) - [Properties in Istan](https://www.homerunmarbella.com/properties/istan.md) - [Villas in Sierra Blanca Country Club](https://www.homerunmarbella.com/properties/sierra-blanca-country-club/villas.md) ## Navigation - [Active property portfolio index](https://www.homerunmarbella.com/properties.md) - [llms.txt](https://www.homerunmarbella.com/llms.txt)
