About this property

Overview

VILLA HENRIETTA is a new development of a 6-bedroom detached villa for sale in Benahavis, Costa del Sol, priced at €4,985,000. This is a single-villa project within the Monte Mayor gated community, one of the highest-altitude private estates on the coast, where properties at this price point typically sit on larger plots with long-range sea views rather than beachfront proximity. The villa's 1,179 m² built area includes a self-contained guest apartment with its own kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom, making it suitable for extended family use or staff accommodation without compromising privacy in the main residence.

The villa is arranged across two levels. The main house contains five bedrooms, and the separate guest apartment adds a sixth bedroom along with its independent facilities. Eight bathrooms serve the property. Floor-to-ceiling windows run through the open-plan living areas, and the ground floor centres on a main bedroom suite, a kitchen, and a living room that opens onto a covered terrace. A private pool is included. The design follows a contemporary template common to recent Monte Mayor builds, with large glazed sections and clean external lines. No gym, spa, or underground parking details are confirmed in the available specification.

Monte Mayor sits inland and uphill from San Pedro de Alcántara, roughly 12 minutes by car to the coast road and 15 minutes to Puerto Banús. The urbanisation appeals to buyers who prioritise privacy, security, and views over walking access to beaches or restaurants. The community is gated, with 24-hour security and a controlled single entry point. Properties here tend to attract Northern European buyers and families seeking year-round residence rather than holiday rentals. The altitude brings cooler temperatures in summer and occasional low cloud in winter. Road access involves a steep, winding climb from the A-7, which some buyers find inconvenient for daily errands but others value for the separation it creates from the coastal density.

This villa is available as a completed new build. The standard Spanish payment structure for new developments applies: a reservation deposit secures the property, followed by stage payments during construction if applicable, with the balance due on completion and key handover. All amounts and schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is recommended throughout the purchase process. Benahavis municipality levies higher annual property taxes than neighbouring Marbella or Estepona, a factor worth calculating into long-term ownership costs for a property of this size.

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.
