About this property

Overview

Luminal Homes sits above the AP-7 motorway on the inland side of Fuengirola, where the land rises towards the mountains. The setting puts distance between you and the beachfront bustle, but keeps the coastal road and airport within easy reach. Málaga Airport is half an hour by car. You can walk to the nearest Mercadona in a quarter of an hour, or drive there in five minutes. The immediate surroundings are residential, and the hillside position brings mountain views.

The apartments range from 66 square metres for a one-bedroom flat to 220 square metres for a three-bedroom unit, so the building houses both compact singles and larger family layouts. Ground-floor homes have direct garden access. Top-floor units sit higher and catch more light. Terraces run to 63 square metres on some layouts, effectively doubling the indoor space. Each apartment comes with garage parking or an assigned space. Orientation varies across the development, with homes facing every cardinal point, so south-facing options are available if that matters to you.

The development has a communal pool and gardens, plus private pools for some ground-floor units. Being close to schools and shops makes daily life straightforward, but this is not a walking neighbourhood in the way the beachfront is. You will need a car for the beach and most errands. The AP-7 passes below, so road noise reaches some parts of the site, though the hillside position lifts you above the worst of it. This suits buyers who prefer residential calm and mountain air over beachside convenience, and who drive as a matter of course.

LUMINAL HOMES: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal is 1.5 kilometres away, about six minutes by car. The development sits on the inland side of the AP-7 motorway, so the beach is not a walk. You will drive there, or cycle if the hills do not put you off.

Built areas run from 66 square metres for a one-bedroom apartment to 220 square metres for a three-bedroom unit. Some homes have terraces of 63 square metres, large enough to furnish as an outdoor room. The range covers compact singles and full family layouts under the same roof.

The airport is 16 kilometres away, about half an hour by car. That makes short breaks practical, and low-season flights from northern Europe land early enough to reach Fuengirola before lunch. The drive back works in reverse for morning departures.

Ground-floor homes have direct garden access, and some have private pools. The rest of the development shares a communal pool and landscaped gardens. A private pool means your own maintenance, communal facilities spread the cost and the work across all owners.

A Mercadona supermarket sits fourteen minutes on foot, or five minutes by car. Shops and schools are close, but the hillside setting puts most daily errands beyond a comfortable walk. This is a residential area where you use the car more than your legs.

Buying off-plan in Fuengirola 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.
