About this property

Overview

Manzanilla 12 is a contemporary detached villa on a 1,100 square metre plot, built across multiple levels with a lift connecting them. The 599 square metres of interior space includes five ensuite bedrooms, an open-plan ground floor living area that opens onto covered terraces, and a basement fitted out with an indoor pool, spa facilities, a guest apartment and further leisure space. The rooftop terrace gives you sea and mountain views. Outside you have 98 square metres of terrace, a private swimming pool, and a four-car garage. Every bedroom has built-in wardrobes and a private balcony.

The villa sits on the sea side of the AP-7 motorway on the New Golden Mile, which puts you between the road and the beach rather than having to cross the motorway to reach the coast. You can walk to Lidl in eight minutes for daily shopping. Gibraltar Airport is 52 minutes away by car, useful if you split time between here and another base. The setting is an urbanisation close to shops and the sea, so you have immediate access to cafés, pharmacies and restaurants without driving.

This layout suits buyers who want extensive space and the option to host guests in a separate apartment downstairs, or families who need the bedroom count and like having leisure facilities at home. The indoor pool and spa mean the basement stays useful through cooler months. The size of the plot and the four-car garage work for households with multiple vehicles. The drawback is the scale: a 599 square metre villa on this footprint needs staff or a lot of upkeep, and the urbanisation setting means neighbours are closer than they would be on a larger rural plot.

Manzanilla 12: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa del Saladillo is 1.2 kilometres away, about four minutes by car. The villa sits on the sea side of the AP-7 motorway, so you do not have to cross the motorway to reach the coast. The distance is short enough for a bike ride, but the terrain and road layout on the New Golden Mile make walking less practical than driving.

Yes, the villa has its own private swimming pool on the 1,100 square metre plot. You also get an indoor pool and spa in the basement. The outdoor space is yours to maintain, which means you control what gets planted and how the garden looks, but you are responsible for pool cleaning, landscaping and irrigation on a plot this size.

The rooftop terrace gives you sea and mountain views. Every bedroom has a private balcony, so you can see across the New Golden Mile towards the Mediterranean or inland to the mountains depending on which side of the villa you are on. The multiple levels mean different vantage points throughout the house.

Lidl is eight minutes on foot for groceries. The urbanisation setting on the New Golden Mile puts cafés, pharmacies and restaurants close enough to reach without a car. A supermarket is 600 metres away, about two minutes by car if you are doing a larger shop. Most other errands and leisure trips need a vehicle.

Gibraltar Airport is 45 kilometres away, about 52 minutes by car. That makes it a practical option if you fly in and out regularly or use the villa as a second home. The drive gives you an alternative to Málaga Airport, which can be useful depending on flight times and routes.

Buying off-plan in New Golden Mile 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.
