About this property

Overview

Villa Murmullo is a five-bedroom detached villa on a 692 square metre plot in the upper part of Urbanización Buenas Noches, between the AP-7 motorway and the sea. The villa spans 396 square metres of built space across three floors plus a solarium, with 170 square metres of terraces. It sits at the end of a cul-de-sac with panoramic views south-east across the Mediterranean, taking in the Estepona waterfront, the Concha mountain behind Marbella and the Sierra Bermeja inland.

Four of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and direct terrace access. The fifth bedroom is on the ground floor and functions as an office. The basement runs to 180 square metres and includes a double garage, a cinema room, a wine cellar and a storage area for pool equipment. A lift connects all floors, mounted on the exterior facade. The infinity pool has a built-in lounge area that can be converted to a jacuzzi, and the rooftop solarium includes a second jacuzzi, a gym, a barbecue area and a fire feature running on ethanol. Two further parking spaces sit under a carport by the entrance.

The beach is 638 metres away by the pedestrian bridge, an eight-minute walk or five-minute drive. The AP-7 is immediately above, which makes the villa quick to reach but brings motorway noise. Estepona town centre is 14 minutes by car, the marina at La Duquesa nine minutes, and Gibraltar Airport 42 minutes. This location suits families who want a large home near the beach with motorway access to Marbella and the airport, but the combination of proximity to both the AP-7 and a busy marina means quiet is not the draw here.

VILLA MURMULLO: Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The beach is 638 metres away by the pedestrian bridge, an eight-minute walk. That puts the sand, the coastal path and the beach restaurants within easy reach on foot, though most residents drive to Estepona centre or the marina rather than rely on what is immediately around the urbanisation.

The villa faces south-east with panoramic views across the Mediterranean, the Estepona waterfront, the Concha mountain behind Marbella and the Sierra Bermeja inland. The orientation means morning sun on the pool terrace and views of the port and coastline from the rooftop solarium, though the AP-7 motorway sits immediately above the plot.

Gibraltar Airport is 42 minutes by car. That makes the villa practical for lock-up-and-leave use, though Málaga Airport is the larger hub and sits 80 minutes away. The AP-7 motorway is directly above the urbanisation, so airport runs are quick but bring constant road noise to the terrace and pool area.

A hospital is seven minutes by car and a supermarket six minutes. Schools including Colegio Diocesano Juan XXIII are a six-minute drive in Estepona. The beach is an eight-minute walk, and a golf academy sits four minutes away by car. Almost everything beyond the beach requires a vehicle, as Buenas Noches itself has limited shops and services.

Yes. The plot is 692 square metres with a private infinity pool, a garden and 170 square metres of terraces. You maintain it yourself or arrange a gardener. The pool includes a built-in lounge area that converts to a jacuzzi, and the rooftop solarium has a second jacuzzi, a gym and a barbecue area.

Buying off-plan in Estepona 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.
