About this property

Overview

VILLA AZAHAR Peak is a new development of 4-bedroom detached villas for sale in Benahavis, Costa del Sol, priced at €2,550,000. This is a single-villa project on a 2,006 m² plot, conceived as a private retreat where contemporary architecture meets open-plan living. The design centres on floor-to-ceiling glazing and continuous indoor-outdoor flow, a deliberate response to the year-round climate and the elevated position of the site. At this price point, the villa sits in the mid-range for new-build detached properties in Benahavis, where competition comes from both larger developments and individual architect-designed projects.

The villa offers 473 m² of built space across two floors, comprising four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a separate toilet. The layout follows an open-plan structure, connecting living, dining, and kitchen areas without internal partitions. Terraces extend from the main living spaces, designed to function as additional rooms rather than decorative additions. A private pool is included. The architecture is organised through clear volumes and balanced proportions, avoiding decorative elements in favour of natural light and sightlines. The plot size allows for privacy and landscaping, with the built footprint occupying roughly a quarter of the available land.

Benahavis sits inland from the coast, approximately 12 minutes by car from San Pedro de Alcántara and 20 minutes from Puerto Banús marina. The municipality attracts buyers seeking larger plots and lower density than the beachfront developments in Marbella or Estepona, often second-home purchasers from Northern Europe or families relocating for international schools in the area. The village itself has a reputation for restaurants, but day-to-day amenities are limited compared to coastal towns. Access involves winding roads through the hills, which some buyers find appealing for privacy and others find inconvenient for regular commuting. Resale values in Benahavis have historically been stable but slower-moving than equivalent properties closer to the coast, a factor worth considering for buyers with shorter ownership horizons.

This is an off-plan project, with construction timelines and stage payment schedules to be confirmed directly with the developer. Standard Spanish new-build transactions typically require a reservation deposit to secure the property, followed by stage payments linked to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion and key handover. Independent legal representation is recommended to review contracts, payment terms, and completion guarantees. The single-villa structure means there are no community fees for shared facilities, but buyers should budget for private pool maintenance, garden upkeep, and security if required. The 2,006 m² plot provides scope for future additions such as a guest house or extended outdoor facilities, subject to local planning permissions.

VILLA AZAHAR Peak is currently under construction and available off-plan, allowing you to secure your villa at the launch price before completion. Contact the sales team for the specific completion timeline and current availability of individual units.

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.
