About this property

Overview

Stupa - Villa Prana is a new development of 5-bedroom detached villas for sale in Benahavís, Costa del Sol, priced at €3,323,000. This is a single-villa project built to 717 m² across three levels, with a round glass elevator connecting each floor and a three-car private garage. The developer has won recognition for Best Luxury Villa Development on the Costa del Sol, and the design prioritises panoramic views through careful site positioning and an elongated infinity pool that extends toward the horizon. The architecture balances contemporary lines with substantial internal volume, including a basement wellness level that most comparable villas in this price bracket omit.

The villa delivers five en-suite bedrooms across 717 m² of built space, plus five bathrooms in total. The ground floor holds an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area with subtle partitions, one guest suite, a wine cellar, pantry, and guest WC. Upstairs, the master suite includes a dressing area and bathroom with a sculptural round bathtub and walk-through shower, alongside three further guest suites, each with fitted wardrobes and access to a covered terrace. The basement adds a private living room, gym or games room, wellness area with sauna and double shower, changing room, laundry, and machine room. Outside, a 40 m² pergola is designed for an outdoor kitchen and al fresco dining, positioned alongside the infinity pool. Covered and open terraces extend across all three levels.

Benahavís sits inland from the coast, approximately 12 minutes by car from Puerto Banús marina, and appeals to buyers seeking privacy and hill views without the density of beachfront developments. The municipality has a reputation for low-rise villa estates and a strong restaurant scene, which supports year-round occupancy and rental appeal. Road access involves winding mountain routes, so this location suits owners who prioritise seclusion and space over immediate beach proximity. The villa's elevated position delivers long-range views but requires comfort with hillside driving, particularly during winter months when rain can affect road conditions.

This is an off-plan project. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the villa, followed by stage payments during construction, with the balance due on completion and key handover. All amounts and payment schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is essential to review contracts, verify planning permissions, and manage the conveyancing process. The basement wellness level, including sauna and double shower, is a specification detail that distinguishes this villa from many competitors at the same price point in Benahavís.

Stupa - Villa Prana is situated in Benahavis on the Costa del Sol, one of Spain's most sought-after residential areas known for its proximity to golf courses, beaches, and upscale dining. This location offers both tranquility and easy access to the region's premier lifestyle facilities.

Stupa - Villa Prana is currently under construction and available off-plan, allowing buyers to secure their property before completion. Specific completion dates and move-in timelines can be confirmed directly with the sales team for this Benahavis development.

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.
