About this property

Overview

Altura 160 is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavis, Costa del Sol, priced from €569,000 to €770,000. The project sits within Los Jaralillos, an established private urbanisation with four existing swimming pools, extensive gardens, and 24-hour concierge service. Altura 160 comprises just 60 apartments across five low-rise buildings, each containing only 12 units. This is a relatively modest scale for the area, and the hillside position provides south-east orientation towards the Golf Valley, with views extending across Atalaya and El Paraíso golf courses to the Marbella coastline. A furniture voucher is currently offered for reservations completed before 31st March 2026.

Ground floor apartments range from 103 to 127 m² of built space, with two bathrooms across all layouts. Each unit includes a terrace designed to extend the living area, with large patio doors connecting indoor and outdoor spaces. The main bedroom features an en suite bathroom. All homes come with an underground parking space fitted with pre-installation for electric vehicle charging, plus a dedicated storage room. The development includes its own gated access and communal facilities: landscaped gardens, an adult swimming pool, a children's pool, and a solarium area with showers. Interiors follow a Mediterranean design approach, with materials and finishes selected to suit the established character of the surrounding urbanisation. Homes are delivered fully equipped and ready for occupation.

Benahavis municipality extends from the coast inland to the Serranía de Ronda foothills, and this development occupies elevated ground in the Golf Valley section, approximately 12 minutes by car from Puerto Banús marina. The immediate area attracts a mix of Northern European second-home buyers and year-round residents, many drawn by the golf course concentration and the relative quiet compared to coastal Marbella. Los Jaralillos is one of the older private estates in this part of Benahavis, which brings mature landscaping and established infrastructure but also means navigating a network of internal roads to reach individual buildings. The hillside topography provides the views but requires consideration if mobility is a factor. Benahavis village centre, known for its restaurants, is a 10-minute drive inland.

This is an off-plan project with construction underway. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion and key handover. Exact amounts and payment schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts, verify planning permissions, and manage the conveyancing process. The furniture voucher offer is time-limited and subject to the developer's terms, so clarify eligibility and redemption conditions at the point of reservation.

Altura 160: Frequently Asked Questions

All ground floor apartments come with a private garden, and prices range from €569,000 for a 2-bedroom up to €770,000 for a 3-bedroom, with built sizes between 103 and 127 square metres.

Altura 160 is situated in Benahavis on the Costa del Sol, a sought-after area known for its proximity to both the coast and upland villages. The south-facing orientation of Altura 160 means you'll get excellent natural light and sea views throughout the day.

Yes, Altura 160 offers both 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom options. The 3-bedroom units are at the higher end of the price range, reaching €770,000, and offer up to 127 square metres of built space with the same south-facing views and garden access as the smaller units.

Every ground floor apartment at Altura 160 includes a private garden, and you'll have access to either a private pool or communal pool facilities depending on your specific unit. The south-facing aspect means your garden and outdoor areas receive sunlight throughout the day.

Altura 160 is expected to be completed in May 2026, giving you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your new home. The project is being developed by PM and units are available now for purchase off-plan.

Buying off-plan in Benahavis means reserving a property before or during construction. You pay a reservation deposit (typically €6,000 to €12,000), then sign a private purchase contract within 30 days and pay a further 10 to 20% of the purchase price. Staged payments follow the construction milestones. The final 60 to 70% is paid at notary completion when the keys are handed over.

Under Spanish law (Law 57/1968 and its 2015 successor), all off-plan deposits must be covered by a bank guarantee or insurance policy. Your lawyer must verify this before you pay any money. If the developer fails to deliver, you can claim 100% of your deposit plus 6% annual interest. Never transfer funds without a confirmed guarantee in your name.

Spanish law mandates three tiers: a 10-year structural guarantee (Seguro Decenal) for serious structural defects, a 3-year guarantee for habitability issues (waterproofing, insulation, installations), and a 1-year guarantee on finishes and fixtures. These run from the date the licence of first occupation (licencia de primera ocupación) is issued.

New-build purchases are subject to 10% IVA (VAT) on the purchase price, plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty) in Andalucía. Parking spaces or storage sold separately may attract 21% IVA. Add notary, land registry and legal fees (1 to 2%), budget 12 to 15% on top of the purchase price in total acquisition costs.

Most developers allow personalisation during the early construction phase, choices of floor tiles, kitchen units, bathroom fixtures, paint colours and sometimes layout tweaks. The window for changes is typically 3 to 6 months after signing the contract. Structural changes are rarely possible once work has started. Your sales representative will provide a customisation deadline and specification sheet.

Typical build time in coastal Spain is 18 to 30 months from licence grant to completion. Delays of 3 to 6 months are common due to weather, supply-chain or permit issues. Your contract should specify a longstop completion date and the compensation you are owed for any overrun. Always check whether the building licence has already been granted before reserving.

Key due-diligence points: (1) confirm the building licence is granted, not just applied for; (2) verify all deposits are bank-guaranteed in your name; (3) check the developer's track record and financial standing; (4) review the specification sheet and what is included in the price; (5) confirm the estimated completion date and longstop clause; (6) have an independent Spanish lawyer review the contract before you sign anything.

Yes, both are required before the final notary signing. You can reserve with a passport, but your Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) is needed for the private purchase contract and your Spanish bank account for the staged transfers. Your lawyer can obtain your NIE with a power of attorney in 2 to 4 weeks. Open the bank account on your first trip to Spain or remotely via certain Spanish banks.

Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.

Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.

Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.

Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.

In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
