About this property

Overview

Villa Evania is a four-bedroom detached villa on a 2,392 square metre plot in Benahavís, with 549 square metres of built space across three floors. The layout includes four bathrooms and a separate toilet. The plot size gives you room for established landscaping, outdoor terraces and a private pool, with enough distance from boundaries to feel secluded. The architecture uses staggered volumes that follow the slope, so different levels of the house open onto separate outdoor areas rather than stacking rooms in a single block. Interiors are open plan where the main living spaces are concerned, and the positioning on the plot means views stretch from the mountains across to the coast.

The setting is above the AP-7 motorway, up in the hills rather than on the coastal strip. Benahavís village is a short drive, and you reach Marbella Club Golf Resort in 14 minutes. Puerto Banús marina is half an hour away, and The International School of Estepona takes 24 minutes. You are close to forest and mountain trails, but every practical errand or school run requires a car. The elevation brings cooler air in summer and quiet surroundings year round, though road noise from the motorway can carry depending on wind direction.

This suits buyers who want space, privacy and a plot large enough for mature planting, and who are happy to drive for everything. Families using international schools will spend time on the road. The four bedrooms and separate floors work for households that need defined zones, and the plot leaves room for future additions like a guest casita or extended terracing. If you prefer walking to a café or having neighbours within sight, this will feel too remote.

VILLA EVANIA: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa del Saladillo is 7.4 kilometres away, about 22 minutes by car. The development sits inland of the AP-7 motorway in the hills, so you are up in the mountains rather than on the coastal strip. Every beach trip requires a drive, which suits buyers who prioritise space and views over proximity to the shore.

The pool is private. The 2,392 square metre plot gives you room for a pool set within landscaped gardens, with no obligation to share facilities or pay community fees for pool maintenance. You control when it is heated, cleaned and covered, which matters if you use the villa sporadically rather than year round.

Mountain, coast and pool. The positioning on the slope and the staggered floor levels mean you get long views from the mountains across to the sea, rather than a single aspect. Different rooms and terraces face different directions, so the outlook changes as you move through the house.

Nothing practical. You are close to forest and mountain trails, but every errand, school run or meal out requires a car. The nearest supermarket is 5.8 kilometres away, which takes 21 minutes to drive. The setting prioritises privacy and elevation over convenience, so this only works if you are comfortable driving daily.

The International School of Estepona is 6.9 kilometres away, about 24 minutes by car. There is no bus service from the development, so the school run is a twice-daily drive along winding roads. Gibraltar Airport is 68 minutes away, which extends the journey if boarders are flying home for holidays.

Buying off-plan in Benahavís 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.
