Welcome to Candado 8, a unique Andalusian home in the prestigious El Candado neighborhood in Malaga East. Combining traditional architecture with modern elegance, this fully renovated villa offers a sophisticated living environment where indoor and outdoor spaces blend seamlessly. Designed by renowned interior design firm La Albaida, this property reflects a perfect balance between authenticity and contemporary comfort.
Candado 8 extends over three levels and features six spacious bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. This ensures ultimate privacy and comfort, whether you are hosting guests or enjoying your family life. On the first floor are three bedrooms and a custom-designed designer kitchen with natural stone that exudes warmth and sophistication. A central courtyard, perfect for alfresco dining. Beautiful surrounding terraces take full advantage of the Mediterranean climate.
The top floor offers an exclusive suite with breathtaking views and privacy. The lower floor houses a multipurpose room, ideal as a gym or home theater, along with an additional bedroom, a bathroom and a convenient poolside toilet room.
Upon entering Candado 8, you immediately experience the charm of the past. The entrance with an elegant wooden door leads to a courtyard full of character. Historic elements, such as marble columns from an old fireplace, have been reincorporated into the architecture. The entrance hall with its restored doors, original handmade terracotta floor and contemporary artwork combines history with modern details.
The living room retains its original charm with two unique fireplaces. One has been redesigned to house a television, while the other, with hand-painted tiles, remains intact surrounded by bookshelves. This creates an inviting library-like atmosphere. The kitchen, the heart of the home, features off-white cabinets, a natural stone countertop and a large island. From the kitchen you step right outside, where two dining areas, including a spot under a mulberry tree, are waiting to welcome you.
The exterior of Candado 8 is a true Mediterranean oasis, designed by landscape architect Laura Pou. Several patios and lush gardens invite you to enjoy the outdoors. The patio, accessed directly from the living room, features comfortable, custom-made outdoor sofas and a rustic coffee table – a perfect place to relax overlooking the pool.
The guest house, formerly a staff quarters, has been redesigned into a self-contained oasis with a fully equipped kitchen, a private terrace with sea views and an interior that seamlessly matches the style of the main villa. This makes it ideal for long stays by family or friends.
El Candado is an exclusive neighborhood in Malaga East, known for its luxury facilities such as a marina, a golf club and a tennis club. Its location offers a perfect blend of privacy, nature and easy access to Malaga’s vibrant city life. Candado 8 is more than a home; it is a lifestyle.
