About this property

Overview

VILLA LYRA Real is a new development of 4-bedroom detached villas for sale in Benahavis, Costa del Sol, priced at €5,650,000. This is a single-villa project within Real de La Quinta, a low-density residential enclave that operates under 24-hour security and sits within a protected natural landscape. The development's differentiator is its position within one of the few remaining gated communities on the Costa del Sol that combines direct lake and sea views with genuinely low housing density, a combination increasingly difficult to secure in more established Marbella addresses.

The villa offers 853 m² of built space across three levels, set on a 1,622 m² plot. The property includes four bedrooms and five bathrooms, with a private swimming pool and garden areas designed to function as the primary living zones. The architecture prioritises indoor-outdoor flow, with terraces and outdoor spaces integrated into the layout rather than treated as secondary features. The villa's orientation and positioning within the plot have been planned to capture views across the Mediterranean, the surrounding mountains, and the development's lake. No gym, spa, or underground parking details are confirmed in the available data.

Real de La Quinta is approximately 15 minutes by car from Puerto Banús marina, positioning it far enough from the coast to offer genuine privacy but close enough for practical access to Marbella's commercial and social infrastructure. The area attracts international buyers, particularly from Northern Europe and the UK, who prioritise security, low neighbour density, and natural surroundings over beachfront proximity. This is an inland location, and buyers should expect a hillside setting with winding access roads typical of Benahavis developments. The trade-off is elevation, which delivers the sea and mountain views but requires a car for all errands and social activities.

Completion status is not specified in the available data, so buyers should confirm with the developer whether this is an off-plan purchase, under construction, or a completed property ready for immediate occupation. Standard Spanish new build payment structures typically involve a reservation deposit, stage payments aligned with construction milestones, and a final balance on key handover, though all amounts and schedules must be verified directly with the seller. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended, particularly for single-villa projects where there may be fewer comparable transactions to benchmark pricing and terms. Real de La Quinta operates as a private community with ongoing service charges, so buyers should request a full breakdown of annual fees before committing.

VILLA LYRA Real: Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, VILLA LYRA Real villas feature sea views as a key characteristic of the development. The elevated position in La Quinta, Costa del Sol allows these 4-bedroom properties to capture views across the coastline while maintaining privacy through their detached design.

Each villa at VILLA LYRA Real includes a private garden and private garage as standard features. Additionally, residents can enjoy either a private pool on their own plot or access to communal pool facilities, depending on which villa configuration they select within the development.

VILLA LYRA Real offers 4-bedroom detached villas with 853 m² of built space, providing generous accommodation suitable for families or those requiring multiple guest rooms. The layout is designed to maximize living areas while maintaining the privacy of a detached property.

VILLA LYRA Real is currently under construction and available off-plan. Specific completion dates vary by villa unit, so it is recommended to contact the sales team directly for the estimated delivery timeline for your preferred property within the development.

Buying off-plan in La Quinta 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.
