About this property

Overview

Luna Nova Residences offers three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments of 100 square metres built area, each with a 29-square-metre terrace facing north. The terraces look towards the mountains, garden or communal pool. North orientation means cooler interiors through the summer but less direct sun in winter, which suits buyers who prefer shade to heat. The layout spans a single floor and works well for families or couples who want separate sleeping areas without maintaining a villa. Every home comes fully furnished, with interiors selected and arranged before handover, which saves buyers several months of sourcing and fitting but leaves no scope to choose their own furniture or style.

Guaro sits above the AP-7 motorway, inland from the coast, with the Sierra de las Nieves close by. The surroundings are mountain terrain and forest rather than beach or golf. Málaga Airport is 54 minutes by car, Colegio de Educación Infantil y Primaria Los Almendros three minutes, and Dia supermarket in Coín 17 minutes. The town centre of Coín, with its local shops and restaurants, is the same distance. Daily life here requires a car. The nearest hospital, Hospital Valle del Guadalhorce, is 31 minutes away. This location suits families who want mountain walking and village quiet over coastal proximity, and who value quick access to schools. It does not suit buyers who want to walk to cafés, supermarkets or the beach, because none are within walking distance.

The development includes communal or private pools, garden areas and garage or parking spaces for residents. The immediate setting is a mountain pueblo, with shops and forest nearby but no golf courses or marinas. Buyers drawn to Marbella's restaurants and nightlife should note that Guaro is a different kind of place, quieter and slower, where the attraction is the landscape rather than the social scene.

Luna Nova Residences - Apartments: Frequently Asked Questions

Luna Nova Residences includes communal or private pools, garden areas and garage or parking spaces. The facts do not specify which homes receive private pools and which share communal facilities, so buyers should confirm the arrangement for individual units. The gardens are part of the shared outdoor areas rather than private plots attached to each apartment.

The beach is 6.6 kilometres away, about 48 minutes by car. That distance reflects mountain roads rather than motorway routes, so this is not a location for daily beach visits or spontaneous evenings by the sea. Buyers who want regular coastal access usually choose developments closer to the shoreline.

Yes. The nearest supermarket is seven kilometres away, a 17-minute drive, and Coín town centre is 6.5 kilometres. Nothing is within comfortable walking distance. The mountain pueblo setting means shops, health care and schools all require a car, so this development does not suit buyers who prefer to walk to daily amenities or avoid driving.

The terraces face north and overlook mountains, garden areas or the communal pool. North orientation keeps the interiors cooler in summer but brings less direct sunlight in winter. The Sierra de las Nieves provides the mountain backdrop, and the views are inland rather than towards the coast or sea.

Colegio de Educación Infantil y Primaria Los Almendros is three minutes away by car, which makes school runs straightforward. The three-bedroom layout gives families separate sleeping areas, and the mountain and forest surroundings offer outdoor space for children. The trade-off is that entertainment, health care and shopping all require longer drives than in coastal towns.

Buying off-plan in Guaro 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.
