About this property

Overview

Villa Evania is a four-bedroom detached villa on a 2,277 square metre plot in the Los Flamingos Golf area of Benahavís. The built area covers 561 square metres across three floors, with four bathrooms and a separate toilet. The layout connects the main living spaces to outdoor terraces, and the plot size gives you room for a private garden and pool alongside usable outdoor space that most golf-front homes do not have.

The villa sits on the sea side of the AP-7, which puts you between the motorway and the coast. You get sea, mountain, golf and panoramic views from the elevated position, but the motorway runs close by and road noise carries. A Lidl is fifteen minutes on foot, so you can walk for basics, but most shopping and services still need a car. Benahavís village is up the hill and has local restaurants, but it is small and quiet rather than a hub.

Frontline golf means direct access to the course and uninterrupted views across the fairways, but it also means golf traffic, early morning maintenance and a setting that revolves around one amenity. This works if golf is central to how you live. If it is not, you are paying for land and views tied to a sport you do not play. The area is gated and private, and the international community here values security and space over walkable town life.

The 561 square metre interior is large for four bedrooms, so expect generous room sizes and circulation space rather than a compact family layout. This suits buyers who want a permanent home with room to spread out, or a holiday villa that can host extended family without feeling crowded. It does not suit anyone looking for a lock-up-and-leave apartment or a low-maintenance second home.

VILLA EVANIA Los Flamingos: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa del Saladillo is 1.8 kilometres away, about twelve minutes by car. The villa sits on the inland side of the AP-7 motorway, so the beach is not walkable. You are elevated above the coast, which gives you the sea views but means you need to drive down for sand and water.

Yes. The 2,277 square metre plot gives you space for a private pool and garden. You are responsible for maintaining both, but you also get outdoor space that most frontline golf homes cannot offer. The plot is large enough to landscape properly without crowding the built area.

A Lidl supermarket is fifteen minutes on foot, so you can walk for basics. Beyond that, you need a car. Benahavís village is up the hill by road, and the beach is too far to walk. The setting prioritises space and views over walkable amenities.

Gibraltar Airport is 45 kilometres away, about 58 minutes by car. That makes it closer than Málaga for some buyers, particularly if you are coming from the UK. The drive follows the coast road through Estepona and San Roque, so you are not reliant on a single motorway link.

You look directly onto the fairways with no buildings in the way, and you can walk onto the course from the plot. You also hear early morning greenkeeping, see golf carts passing and live in a community built around one sport. If you play regularly, the access and views justify the setting. If you do not, the trade-offs are harder to defend.

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.
