About this property

Overview

LA ROCA 2 is a four-bedroom, five-bathroom detached villa spread across 427 square metres of built space on a 576-square-metre plot. The layout runs across four levels, with two master bedrooms and sea-facing terraces on the upper floor, an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area on the ground floor that opens to a terrace and infinity pool with a waterfall feature, and two further guest bedrooms on the lower level along with a cinema room and second living area. A large garage occupies the lowest floor. The villa sits on a hillside above the AP-7 in Benalmadena, giving panoramic views across the sea and mountains. This position means the coast is close but not within walking distance: Playa de Bil Bil is a nine-minute drive. A Carrefour Market is eight minutes on foot, and the villa is near to Golf Benalmadena Pitch and Putt and several international schools, including Bifrostskolan within a four-minute drive.

The setting works well for families who want space and privacy on a hillside site with quick runs to the airport, beach and golf courses, but it will not suit anyone who prefers flat coastal living or wants to walk to the sea. The four-level arrangement means stairs between every part of the house, which some will find inconvenient. The villa comes with 144 square metres of terrace across the levels, giving plenty of outdoor space for the climate. Málaga Airport is 24 minutes by car, making this a practical base for anyone travelling frequently or letting the property when not in residence.

LA ROCA 2: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de Bil Bil is 2.7 kilometres away, which is about nine minutes by car. The villa sits on a hillside inland of the AP-7 motorway, so the coast is close but the terrain makes walking impractical. A supermarket is 700 metres away and can be reached on foot in eight minutes.

The villa has panoramic views across both the sea and the mountains. Its hillside position above the AP-7 gives open sightlines in multiple directions, and the upper-floor terraces and infinity pool face the sea. The four-level layout means most rooms benefit from the elevation.

The British College is 3.7 kilometres away, about 14 minutes by car. Bifrostskolan, a Danish international school, is closer at a four-minute drive. Hospital de Alta Resolución de Benalmádena is 1.4 kilometres from the villa, an eight-minute drive, making this a practical location for families settling in Benalmadena.

Yes, the villa has a private infinity pool with a waterfall feature on the ground-floor terrace. The 576-square-metre plot also includes a garden, and you are responsible for maintaining both. There are 144 square metres of terrace space across the four levels.

Golf Benalmadena Pitch and Putt is 1.3 kilometres away, about six minutes by car. The hillside setting means you are close to golf but will need to drive rather than walk. The position also gives quick access to the AP-7, so other courses along the Costa del Sol are within easy reach.

Buying off-plan in Benalmádena 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.
