About this property

Overview

Bliss Homes offers two, three and four-bedroom apartments on the western edge of Casares, where the development sits between the AP-7 motorway and the Mediterranean. The homes range from 98 to 179 square metres of built space, with terraces that vary considerably: some are modest balconies of a square metre or two, while others stretch to 149 square metres, which is large enough for proper outdoor living and dining areas. The two-bedroom apartments suit couples or small families looking for a lock-up-and-leave base near the coast, while the four-bedroom layouts work for buyers who need space for children or regular guests.

The location is suburban rather than beachside. You reach the Mediterranean directly from here, but the immediate surroundings are residential streets and golf courses rather than promenades or chiringuitos. Lidl is a seven-minute drive for groceries, and the AP-7 is right there if you need to reach Marbella, Estepona or Gibraltar. That proximity to the motorway is useful for access but means road noise is a factor, particularly on the north-facing side of the development. The western orientation of the blocks means afternoon and evening sun on the terraces, which is pleasant in cooler months but can make west-facing rooms warm in summer.

The development includes nine apartment blocks, communal gardens, a swimming pool and a gym. Some homes come with a private pool on the terrace, others share the communal facilities. Parking is provided, either in a garage or an allocated space. The interiors follow an open-plan layout, with the kitchen, living area and dining space flowing into one another and out onto the terrace. Views take in the golf courses, the surrounding hills, the gardens and the pool, with some apartments seeing the sea beyond.

This suits buyers who want a modern apartment within reach of the beach but not in the thick of a resort town, and who are comfortable with car dependency for shopping, dining and most errands. It does not suit anyone expecting to walk to the seafront or to local services.

Bliss Homes: Frequently Asked Questions

The Mediterranean is 1.9 kilometres away, which takes about six minutes by car. This is not a beachside development, so walking to the coast is not practical. The immediate surroundings in Casares are residential streets and golf courses rather than seafront.

Terraces range from 1 to 149 square metres. Some two-bedroom apartments have small balconies of a square metre or two, while larger units come with terraces big enough for outdoor dining and lounging. Check the terrace size on each listing before viewing, because the variation is substantial.

Some do, others do not. Homes with a private pool have it on the terrace. All residents can use the communal pool and gardens. Whether a particular apartment includes a private pool is shown in the listing details.

Gibraltar Airport is 29 kilometres away, about 44 minutes by car. The AP-7 motorway runs directly beside the development, so the route is straightforward. This makes the apartments practical for lock-up-and-leave use if you fly in and out of Gibraltar regularly.

The apartments face west and overlook golf courses, surrounding hills, communal gardens and the pool. Some see the Mediterranean beyond. The western orientation gives afternoon and evening sun on the terraces, which is pleasant in cooler months but can warm west-facing rooms in summer.

Buying off-plan in Casares 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.
