About this property

Overview

ALMAZARA VIEWS (Townhouses) is a new development of 3-bedroom townhouses for sale in Istán, Costa del Sol, priced from €620,000 to €640,000. This is a small-scale project of just 23 homes positioned at the highest point of the development, which gives every unit unobstructed south-easterly views across Marbella Bay and Gibraltar. The limited number of units and the elevated position distinguish this from larger coastal schemes where view corridors are often compromised by neighbouring blocks.

Each townhouse measures between 189 and 197 m² of built space across three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The development includes a communal swimming pool, and every home comes with an underground parking space and a dedicated storeroom. Homes are delivered fully equipped with premium-brand finishings, ready for immediate occupation. The south-easterly orientation means morning and midday light across living spaces, with the coastal views extending from the terraces. The supplier description confirms that all units benefit from unrestricted sightlines, which is a function of the elevated plot rather than marketing language.

Istán sits approximately 15 kilometres inland from Marbella, a 20-minute drive from Puerto Banús marina. The village itself is known for its water sources and proximity to the Sierra de las Nieves, which attracts buyers looking for a quieter base with access to hiking and mountain biking routes while remaining within reach of the coast. The area has historically appealed to Northern European buyers seeking lower density than the beachfront developments, and to Spanish families from Málaga or Sevilla who use properties as weekend retreats. Road access involves a winding climb from the A-7176, which is straightforward in dry conditions but requires careful driving in winter rain. The altitude here also means cooler evenings year-round compared to sea-level developments.

This project is currently under construction, with completion dates to be confirmed directly with the developer. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the final balance due on completion when keys are handed over. All payment schedules and amounts should be verified with the developer before committing. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts and confirm that all planning permissions and build licences are in order. The underground parking and storeroom allocation per unit is a practical advantage in a mountain village setting where street parking can be limited during peak summer months.

ALMAZARA VIEWS (Townhouses): Frequently Asked Questions

The price range of €620,000 to €640,000 for ALMAZARA VIEWS townhouses includes the property itself, a private garage, and your choice of either a private or communal pool access. Each townhouse also comes with a private garden, so you get outdoor space regardless of which pool option you select.

ALMAZARA VIEWS is situated in Istan on the Costa del Sol, which is a quieter inland location that still offers convenient access to coastal amenities and the wider Costa del Sol area. The location gives you a more relaxed setting while remaining close to beaches, golf courses, and local services.

All townhouses at ALMAZARA VIEWS are 3-bedroom properties with a built size ranging from 189 to 197 square metres. This gives you a compact but functional layout with enough space for a family or those wanting a dedicated home office or guest room.

Yes, ALMAZARA VIEWS townhouses feature sea views, which is a significant selling point for a property in this price range on the Costa del Sol. Combined with the private garden and pool options, this makes for a genuinely livable outdoor experience.

ALMAZARA VIEWS is expected to be completed in November 2026, giving you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your townhouse. This allows time for final construction phases while keeping the delivery date within a reasonable timeframe.

Buying off-plan in Istan 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.
